Francesco Friedrich secured his 16th world championship gold medal, triumphing at the WM-Chaos-Rennen held at Mount van Hoevenberg. With a narrow 0.28-second lead over Johannes Lochner, Friedrich's victory was supported by a skilled team, including Matthias Sommer.
Lochner faced challenges during the race, notably a mishap that left his bob damaged, yet he managed to finish second thanks to assistance from mechanic Enrico Zinn. The event was marred by controversy, with calls for a review after Lochner's bob hit concrete in a critical turn.
Concerns loom for the upcoming 2026 Olympics in Cortina d'Ampezzo, as Lake Placid is considered a potential backup venue. Despite the chaos, Friedrich's performance reaffirmed his dominance in the sport, while Lochner expressed his frustration over the race's conditions.
