📸 Discover the story behind the image with Getty Images’ Chief Sports Photographer David Ramos davidramosgetty through our 2025 Year in Review. David reveals the preparation and patience involved in getting “the shot” at the UCI Cycling World Championships in Rwanda: ⁠ ⁠ “We knew that this year’s World Cycling Championships in Rwanda was going to be special, with the cobbled climb of the Kigali Wall as the image of the championships. The atmosphere here was possibly the best in history. Two hours before the race, I managed to climb onto a fence that gave me a clear view of the climb amid the hundreds of fans crowding the sidewalks. All I could do was wait—hoping something remarkable would happen. When I saw Del Toro and Pogačar attacking on that ascent, I knew right away that this was going to be a top sporting moment from the year.” ⁠ ⁠ Click the link in bio to explore Getty Images’ Top 100 sports visuals of 2025 and stay tuned for more behind the scenes.
