September 16 in Holland, it was time for Mundial and the culmination of the outgoing season - the world championship among the elite. The struggle was not only for the victory, the podium, top-10 and top-20, but also for places far from the podium.
The men on the swim set the pace of the Slovak Richard Varga, and on the bike race a large group of leaders gathered in which the future was going to win the Grand Final. Christian Blummenfelt was the first to start running. Over time, a group of leaders assembled with the Norwegian, in which Spaniard Javier Gomez, Frenchman Vincent Luis and Jonathan Brownlee from the UK. Persecuted the leaders of two Spaniards - Mario Mola and Fernando Alarza, Richard Murray from South Africa and Portuguese Joao Pereira. Mario Mola led the group of leaders. At the finish line Vincent Luis attacked, which immediately gained the advantage and won the race! Christian Blummenfelt supported the attack and finished second. Mario Mola third - he defended the first place in the World Series! The world champion on IRONMAN 70.3, Spaniard Javier Gomez , which was held a week earlier, becomes the fourth! Jonathan Brownlee is only the fifth, and Richard Murray is in sixth place. In the top 10 Frenchman Pierre Le Corre, Portuguese Joao Pereira, Dane Andreas Schilling and Thomas Bishop from Great Britain finished. Not one by accident in the top 10! In the second ten, not less eminent participants are Spaniards Fernando Alarza and Vincente Hernandez, who grew up from the end of 2016 to the world-class star Belgian Martin Van Riel, Australian Aaron Royle, Irishman Russell White, Canadian Matthew Sharp, Eric Lagerstrom from the USA, Australian Ryan Bailey, Slovak Richard Varga and Austrian Alois Knabl.
The women's race was led by the Frenchwoman Jessica Lermont, the leader of the World Series Flora Duffy from Bermuda and Caroline Rothier from Spain. They dictated the pace in the first stage. At Flora Duffy learned lessons from past races and did not allow rivals to organize a coordinated work on the bike and leave the leader. On the bike race they lost Carolina Routier, and Katie Zaferes, who sailed a little later than the leaders, joined the work. Three leaders successfully increased the advantage from 30 seconds and a half minutes over the pursuers of seven participants. And Flora Duffy ran to win the Mundial! Katie Zaferes finished second, and Jessica Lermont became a well-deserved winner of the Mundial. The group of pursuers had only to fight for the remaining seats in the top 10. The fourth place is from Kirsten Kasper from the USA, Joanna Brown from Canada is the fifth. In the top 10, Ashleigh Gentle from Australia, Rachel Klamer from Holland, Jodie Stimpson from the UK, Summer Cook from the USA and Jolanda Annen from Switzerland finished. In the top 20, Andrea Hewitt from New Zealand, Alice Betto from Italy, Nicola Spirig from Switzerland, Gillian Backhouse and Charlotte McShane from Australia, Taylor Spivey from the USA, German Laura Lindermann, Yuka Sato from Japan, Natalie Van Coevorden from Australia and Zsofia Kovacs from Hungary.
