Marianne Vos has claimed victory in the elite women's event at the 2026 UCI Gravel World Championships in Nannup, Western Australia, riding alone to the finish after rival Rosa Kloser crashed out near the finish. Dutch riders controlled the women's race throughout the muddy course.
Vos was visibly moved at the finish, saying the win was deeply significant following a difficult season. The result brings yet another world title to the Dutch veteran's remarkable career, with the championship taking place in Australia for the first time.
