Felix Forissier and Alizée Paties Win Weston Park

With near-perfect race conditions, the scene was set for a fast and fiercely contested debut in Staffordshire.

It was Félix Forissier who handled it best, pacing his effort to take the win for the men in 2:27:05. In the women’s race, Alizée Paties delivered yet another commanding performance, crossing the line in 2:45:22 to become the first World Cup winner at Weston Park.

Full Distance - Story of the Race

An all-new terrain for the pro series, blending speed and endurance with centuries of English history, as Weston Park became the latest destination to join the World Cup.
The calm before the chaos—rituals and release before the battles begin.
A new leader in the water for the men—Britain’s Rory Strachan set the pace with the fastest swim split of the day at 17:55.
A flurry of pink caps and churned water as the women’s field fights for early position.
Another one for the home crowd—Isla Hedley of Great Britain led out of the water with a swim split of 18:29.
The bike leg delivered some of the day’s best racing—packs formed, alliances shifted, and positions changed constantly across 37.5K of flat-out terrain.
Doing it faster than anyone else, Arthur Forissier clocked the fastest bike split of the day—1:28:40 to complete the loop as he worked his way to the front.
Once again dominant in her favoured discipline, Alizée Paties recorded the fastest bike split among the women—1:38:58—as she closed the gap to early leader Aneta Grabmüller.
A career-best performance from Great Britain’s Will Draper saw him leading the men’s race heading into the final discipline.
But nothing could stop Félix Forissier, who paced his race to perfection to claim back-to-back wins in the space of just seven days—first in Greece, then in the UK.
For Alizée Paties, it’s three in a row—back-to-back-to-back wins to maintain her perfect score and solidify her place at the top of the leaderboard after three stops.
Incredible efforts from the home-country athletes, with Isla Hedley earning her first World Cup podium behind Aneta Grabmüller in second place.
For the men, it was Will Draper who gave the home crowd plenty to scream for as he claimed his first World Cup podium with a second-place finish.
Arthur Forissier took the golden jersey for the first time in 2025, while Alizée Paties made it three in a row to remain the undisputed series leader.
