Marine has been taking the race to the world’s fastest for years. Hailing from Millau, France, she honed her skills on some of Europe’s most legendary terrain becoming Junior World Champion in 2015, before growing into the powerhouse she is today.

With her string of UCI podiums, National Championships and unforgettable victories over the years in locations such as Val di Sole, Snowshoe, Maribor, Lousa, Portes du Soleil, Bielsko-Biała and Mont-Sainte-Anne, as well as her relentless drive for success, Marine is the perfect addition to the CLLCTV lineup.
“Marine’s got everything: raw talent, insane speed, and a fearless approach to racing,” says Fabien Barel, Canyon CLLCTV team mentor. “We’re stoked to have Marine with us, this partnership will raise the bar for both her and the team in 2025.”

Ambitions for the year ahead
Marine’s 2024 season saw her never straying far from the podium across all seven World Cup rounds. With two World Cup victories, including a win in the final round at Mont Sainte-Anne, Marine will be looking to continue that momentum by starting the 2025 season as she finished 2024.
But it wasn’t only Marine who closed out 2024 in style. Canyon CLLCTV DH’s Troy Brosnan and Luca Shaw racked up the podiums aboard the prototype Sender CFR, with Troy capping the season in true fairytale fashion, fuelled by a healthy dose of new dad strength, by winning the final men’s UCI World Cup round in Mont-Sainte-Anne. With Marine joining the CLLCTV roster, 2025’s podium places are poised to be even more plentiful.
“The Canyon setup, the team vibe, and the proto Sender—it’s all next-level,” says Marine. “I’m ready to give it my all, push harder than ever, and make 2025 unforgettable. Let’s go!”
