Hardtail
Front-Suspension mountain bikes, aka hardtails, are the racing standard. The front shock helps with tracking and forgives some mistakes when your focus wanes from exhaustion. The front shock adds little weight, so most people opt in.
Compared to Full-Suspension bikes)spending the same amount of money) you'll typically save 3 to 5 pounds. That's enough to matter in a bike race.
