Pauline Ferrand Prevot (32) delivered France's second gold medal of the Paris Olympics as she took a high-quality field apart to win the women's cross-country mountain bike race on Sunday.
Ferrand Prevot produced a devastating acceleration at the start of the second of seven laps around the dusty 4.4-kilometre circuit on Elancourt Hill and rode solo to victory.
Haley Batten of the United States and Jenny Rissveds of Sweden were involved in a fierce scrap for silver with Batten bursting clear to finish runner-up.
