Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) must announce that the Maribor (Slovenia) round of the 2021 Mercedes-Benz UCI Mountain Bike World Cup, which should have opened the series on 24-25 April with its downhill events, will now take place on the weekend of 14-15 August.
This postponement follows a request from the Slovenian health authorities.
The UCI thanks the organisers for their cooperation in this difficult situation, as well as the riders, teams and all concerned for their understanding.
