After races in well-known venues such as Leogang or Pila during this season, the finals took place in the Portes du Soleil region for the first time, in Châtel to be precise. It was the third time a race of the European racing series was being held here, so most of the riders knew the course and the perfect conditions. The weather also contributed to the finals, as the sun was shining, and the race was organized on the professional level the venue has become known for on a perfectly groomed track.

In theory, five riders were still in the running for the overall win in the elite men's category, but Thomas Braithwaite (Hope Technology) and Shaun O'Connor (Kenda Playbike) were both not competing, so the remaining three were left to battle it out. After the seeding run where co-favorite Nick Beer (Scott 11) had posted the fastest time, it was clear that the points won in the series' final race would be decisive for the overall.

The first rider to best his time was Charly Di Pasquale (VTT Plate Au Du Lizon), whose time was good enough to finish third. Second-to-last on the course was Marcus Klausmann (Ghost ATG). He pushed Di Pasquale off the hot seat by just two tenths of a second, but right after that Nick Beer delivered another proof of his consistency, winning the race with a time of 2:38, which also made him the overall winner. His brother Marcel Beer (GT/iXS) completed the double, finishing in fourth at the day and in second in the series' overall. The third place in 2010's overall ranking went to the twelve-fold German national champion Klausmann.
