Rachel Atherton has battled the weather and the track to come out on top here in Fort William, seeing off Tracey Hannah and Nina Hoffman in the process.
The rain kept falling in Scotland, making visibility and the track that little bit more difficult. Rachel Atherton would make the most of the conditions, crossing the line in 5:15.560.
Atherton would be left to squirm in the hot seat as Tracey Hannah was up on all bar her last two splits, only to lose out in the final sectors and cross the line 1.6 seconds back. Nina Hoffman came third, almost nine seconds back on Atherton.
