“After doing some analysis of what the 2024 Arax\u00e1 stage of the World Cup was like in sporting terms, we concluded that in the men’s stage we had 47 of the 50 best athletes in the world in action in the Minas Gerais stage. The women’s number was also significant, with 38 of the 50 athletes from the top 50. The expectation is that this number in 2025 will be closer to having the 100 best, considering the 50 best of each gender. There is no doubt that the sequence of events, made up of CiMTB and two stages of the World Cup. , which has already been called a bike festival, will be a success next year”, celebrated Tom\u00e1s Mendes, Deputy Secretary of Sports of Minas Gerais.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another survey carried out by the organization showed that holding two stages of the World Cup in Brazil was very beneficial for Brazilian athletes. Among 38 cyclists born in the country, who were part of the start list for the first two stages of the competition in 2024, 30 of them improved their rankings after the event period. Numbers that help reaffirm the importance of holding the event in Brazil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
