This crowd-pleasing format pits two competitors against one another in a side-by-side battle against each other and the clock’s cruel hand as racers battle to avoid elimination. Riders take one run down each side of the course, with the fastest combined time taking the win. Each lap through the track raises the stakes and works up everyone’s appetite to win.

 I'm loving EJ on commentary lately. Nice to have consistent racer insight on things as opposed to just neutral filler.

 Pretty boring track.
Also why can Meier-Smith ride right over a slalom flag without penalty?

 @wastesport: he rode clean over the black flag. It’s on Red Bull just re watch the first heat.
Whoever reviewed it must work for VAR

 Makes me irrationally angry to see the camera man at the start gates have his mask pulled under his nose. What a douche.

 If if bothers you that much then find out where he lives and whilst he is sleeping put some fiber glass under his foreskin.

 Too bad they add all these pauses and commercials through out the broadcast, probably less than 50% och the time is actuall riding.
