The men’s final Summer Grand Prix competition at Chaux-Neuve, France, has unfortunately been cancelled due to heavy rain and stormy weather conditions.

Earlier today, David Mach had a strong performance in the Ski Jumping competition held on the La Côte Feuillée HS 118 hill, where he took the lead. Jumping 117 meters, Mach achieved a score of 125.4 points, earning him the top spot prior to the cancellation.

In second place was Pascal Müller from Switzerland, who jumped 114.5 meters for a score of 123 points. Terence Weber followed closely behind, securing third place with a jump of 112.5 meters and a score of 122.9 points.

The weather conditions deteriorated significantly during the women's race, leading to the cancellation of the men’s subsequent roller ski event. In the overall standings, Laurent Mühlethaler, a local favorite from France, claimed the title, closely followed by his teammate Matteo Baud. Pascal Müller’s impressive performance earned him a career-best overall finish in third place.
