Marianne Vos Claims Fifth Gravel World Title as Klöser Crashes on Muddy Nannup Course
Marianne Vos won the 2026 UCI Women’s Gravel World Championships in Nannup, Western Australia, securing her fifth consecutive title. The 125.6km race featured 3,179m of elevation gain on 84% gravel, with wet conditions and 'pea gravel' surfaces creating significant challenges. Vos finished 27 seconds ahead of Rosa Klöser, who crashed on the final climb, while Larissa Hartog took bronze. The victory extends Dutch dominance in the discipline, despite the presence of dedicated gravel specialists.
