Jonas Koch and Carolin Schiff emerged victorious at the Hegau Gravel Race in Germany, the second round of the UCI Gravel World Series in 2024.

Maaike Colje took third place, the only other rider within a minute of the winning time.

In the men’s race, Koch finished 38 seconds ahead of runner up Daan Soete, with Petr Vakoc coming in just two seconds behind Soete.
