The first race of 2023 brought its own challenges. As well as a new format and a few changes, it was a lot to get used to. It's been incredible to see Camille's progression in the time she's been riding.
Despite the additional pressure to take a win in her home country, Camille races with a positive outlook and laser focus. We're hoping she's back to full strength soon following her crash in round four of the downhill World Cup in Andorra.
