Marianne Vos has taken out the elite women's title at the 2026 UCI Gravel World Championships in Nannup, Western Australia, riding alone to the finish after rival Rosa Kloser crashed out near the finish. Dutch riders dominated the women's field throughout the challenging muddy parcours.

Vos was clearly affected by the result, saying the win carried real weight following a tough 2026 season. The result brings yet another world title to the Dutch veteran's decorated career, with the championship staged in Australia for the first time.
