Marianne Vos has taken out the elite women's title at the 2026 UCI Gravel World Championships in Nannup, Western Australia, soloing to the rainbow jersey after rival Rosa Kloser fell in the closing stages. Dutch riders dominated the women's field throughout the muddy course.
Vos was visibly moved at the finish, saying the win meant a lot following a difficult season. The result delivers one more world title to the Dutch veteran's decorated career, with the championship staged in Australia for the first time.
