Mica McNeill of Britain wad fourth, while fifth went to Russian Nadezhda Sergeeva, who served an eight-month ban after she was one of two Russian athletes from the country to test positive while representing the neutral team at Pyeongchang 2018.

A total of 14 races were held as part of the 2020-2021 World Series.

Women's monobob is due to make its Olympic debut at Beijing 2022, and made its first World Championships appearance at last weekend's World Championships in Altenberg.
