MTB World Cup DH 4X #4 - CDM
Schladming, Austria, July 7-8, 2007
Race 1 - July 7: Elite 4X
Americans Lopes and Kintner win 4X
American Brian Lopes logged a convincing win Saturday in round four of the men's 4X in Schladming. Lopes won all his rounds, including the final ahead of German Guido Tschugg, Slovakian Filip Polc and Australian rider Jared Graves. Lopes retained his convincing lead in the overall World Cup standings, leaving the others to continue the battle for second, 500 points behind.
Meanwhile, compatriot Jill Kintner showed she has recovered from her disappointing race two weeks ago in Mont Sainte Anne. She won in Austria over Dutchwoman Anneke Beerten. Kintner's win also gave her the overall lead by 40 points in the World Cup standings after four total rounds. Third and fourth went to Great Britain's Fionn Griffiths and Japan's Mio Suemasa took third and fourth places.
The fifth and final World Cup round will happen September 13-14 in Maribor, Slovenia.
