Sabrina Jonnier (born 19 August 1981) is a French former professional downhill mountain biker. She won the general classification of the UCI Downhill World Cup five times: in 2003, 2005, 2007, 2009 and 2010. She was also the world downhill champion in 2006 and 2007, in addition to four second-place finishes. [1]

She retired in 2012 after the national championships, largely due to a crash sustained while practicing for the World Cup event in Pietermaritzburg, South Africa. [2]
