Andreassen completes the full set of national titles at Orbea Fox Factory Team

In Vejle, Simon Andreassen has been crowned XCO champion of Denmark, adding the fourth national jersey for the team this season after the victories of Rebecca Henderson (Australia), Jennifer Jackson (Canada), and Pierre de Froidmont (Belgium).

The Danish rider, who started the year burdened by a fall in a race that caused him a concussion, has been regaining sensations and already made his great moment clear with the bronze at the European Championships in Portugal. With this national title, he arrives with total confidence for the upcoming World Cup event in Haute Savoie, France.

On the other hand, Rebecca Henderson decided to take a break after not finding her best level in Leogang and Val di Sole, and the rest seems to have paid off. In her return to Europe, she has won convincingly at the Les Menuires French Cup (HC category).

The Australian clearly surpassed Martina Berta, who finished second more than 40 seconds behind, while her teammate Jennifer Jackson completed the podium in third place.

With these results, the Orbea Fox Factory Team starts the final part of the season with the confidence needed to shine in the most important events of the year.
