Eddy Clerte doubles up and Sabina Košárková strikes again at Pump Track World Championships
The 2025 Velosolutions UCI Pump Track World Championships delivered a landmark moment for the sport, as France’s Eddy Clerte claimed his second rainbow jersey and became the first rider to take the men’s title twice in the history of the series, while Czech rider Sabina Košárková powered to her second world crown in the women’s category. The men’s racing built to a dramatic climax, with Clerte clocking the fastest lap of the day at 20.023 seconds to edge out Switzerland’s Tristan Borel, who finished in 20.168 seconds. The small final saw Jesse Elzenga of the Netherlands take third with a 20.948-second run, while Switzerland’s Sirio Grunig placed fourth in 21.225 seconds.
The women’s final was equally fierce, with Košárková defeating Swiss rival Christa von Niederhäusern
