Pauline Sophie Grabosch (born January 14, 1998 in Magdeburg ) is a German track cyclist and four-time junior world champion.
Athletic career
Pauline Grabosch comes from a family of athletes, her father was a canoeist , the mother an athlete . She herself also did athletics and broke several national records in her age group in the sprint. Due to knee problems, she switched to the Osterweddingen cycling club at the age of twelve . Her trainer at the time, Andreas Kindler, who trained her until September 2014, recognized her extraordinary talent early on. Her hobby is learning foreign languages such as English, French and Chinese. In September 2014 she moved to the Heinrich-Heine-Gymnasium in Kaiserslautern , an elite school of sports , where she is looked after by trainer Frank Ziegler together with Miriam Welte and Emma Hinze , and from 2016 she trained with Tim Zühlke in Erfurt . After Tim Zühlke left, she and the Erfurt training group were trained by Anner Miedema .
After Pauline Grabosch won her first German championship title in the 500-meter time trial in 2013, she became German youth champion in the 500-meter time trial and sprint in Cottbus in 2014 . At a sighting race of the Federation of German Cyclists (BDR) in October 2014 in the Oderlandhalle in Frankfurt / Oder , she set a new German record time in the U17 age group of 11.76 seconds in the sprint qualification, a record that has been up to eight Years ago by Olympic champion Kristina Vogel .
At the UEC European Track Championships for Juniors / U23 2015 in Athens , Grabosch and Emma Hinze won the gold medal in the junior team sprint , in both sprint and time trial she was runner-up behind Hinze. At the Junior World Track Championships a few weeks later, she won two gold medals in the team sprint and time trial, in the time trial over 500 meters with the new world record time of 34.657 seconds.
In April 2016, Pauline Grabosch drove a world record time of 34.392 seconds at a sighting race of the Federation of German Cyclists in Frankfurt's Oderlandhalle , thus breaking her own record from 2015. However, since there was no commissioner from the UCI World Cycling Association , this record was not official accepted. A few weeks later Grabosch set a new junior world record over 200 meters (flying start) at the Grand Prix Alexander Lesnikov in Moscow . This improved the previous record set by British Rebecca James in 2009 on the same track, the Krylatskoje Velodrome , by two tenths of a second to 10.870 seconds.
In July 2016, Grabosch was again two-time junior world champion , this time in the sprint, as well as in the time trial, where she again improved the junior world record (34.023 s) this time. Together with Kristina Vogel , she was the first German champion of the elite in the team sprint and also won four junior titles. In autumn of that year she started in an international elite competition for the first time: at the World Cup in Apeldoorn , she won the time trial and finished fifth in the sprint.
In the following year Pauline Grabosch was U23 European champion in the 500-meter time trial and vice-European champion in sprint. At the European Railway Championships in Berlin she won a silver medal in the time trial and with Kristina Vogel in the team sprint. Together, Vogel and Grabosch took first place at the World Cup in Pruszków . At the fifth round of the World Cup in Minsk , she achieved two first places: in the sprint and with Emma Hinze in the team sprint.
At the UCI Track World Championships 2018 in Apeldoorn , Grabosch, together with Vogel and Miriam Welte, won gold in the team sprint and bronze in the sprint, thus their first world championship medals in the elite.
