Another standout in the women’s field was Italian rider, Francesca Bagnoli, who was in top shape throughout the early rounds of competition. Bagnoli is always an exciting rider to watch and she did not disappoint in France. While Bagnoli came out swinging in the early rounds, she had a mishap on the beach only moments before the start of her final heat which broke her focus giving her a rough start to her penultimate performance. Unfortunately, these things can happen in competition however, Bagnoli shows what it means to be a true competitor and brings home a Fourth Place finish.
