Great Britain's Evie Richards has become the most successful female short track cross-country rider ever with victory in Brazil.
The 28-year-old won the second round of the UCI Cross-country Short Track (XCC) World Cup in Araxa, a week after she finished first in the opening round.
The victory was the reigning world champion's seventh in the format, overtaking Olympic champion Pauline Ferrand-Prevot as the most successful elite woman in XCC history.
Richards was pushed until the end by Switzerland's Nicole Koller and Sweden's Jenny Rissveds, but kept them at bay during a sprint for the line.
"I think when you're world champion and you're leading the series, there's a lot of pressure, so I was really nervous before," she said.
