Vali Holl ruking the junior women once agin

The full results are in from Mont-Saint-Anne and wow what a race! In the Elite Men's the final riders put everything into their runs and it seemed like each run would be impossible to beat. It was Loic Bruni who would emerge the victor and take another World Champs title. The silver medal would go to Troy Brosnan who was in touching distance of gold but would have to settle for 2nd position, only 0.581 back. Amaury Pierron could not match the top two riders' pace being over two seconds back but he still laid down a run deserving of the bronze medal.

In the Elite Women's it would be the riders fresh from injury that would dominate the day with Myriam Nicole taking the rainbow jersey closely followed by Tahnee Seagrave. Hot on their heels and coming off two World Cup wins, Marine Cabirou takes the bronze medal in Mont-Sainte-Anne. For the Juniors, Vali Höll took her final World Champion title as a Junior and the Australian Kye A'Hern secured an impressive gold medal result.

 @Dav82: I feel like Troy was just born at the wrong time. To be competing with the likes of Bruni, Pierron, Gwin...that’s really tough. Troy is an awesome rider and doesn’t get the full recognition he deserves.

 Absolutely thought Troy had that after he finished his run. Really thought this was gonna be the time he held onto it. Gutted for him, but damn Bruni is impressive this year.

 Yep, what you said.

So gutted for Troy. Almost something inevitable about it - thought "ah he's put down the run of his life, no way is it going to be beaten...o yeah there's Bruni."

He's in a proper imperial stage right now. Incredible.

 @kegron: of course he was pissed off. You don't get to the top by being happy when you lose a race you could have won. Those guys who look happy when they lose are just good actors.

 Yep, Troy comes across such a good sportsman and really supportive of the other riders, I hope he gets that win soon. A well deserved win for Loic though. Awesome day of racing and I hope next time around the mainstream TV networks either give downhill their full support or leave it to those who have the expertise. In the UK, the BBC's support of downhill was shameful, up until the day of racing I didn't know whether they were going to show it or not and their world champs homepage even had a picture of Rachel yet only listings for the xc races.

 @kegron: I actually asked Pierron if he was going to break the French/French Canada curse. He said What? I said no frenchie has won in Quebec. I think that weighed heavily on his mind.

 @Hogfly: that interview kinda explains results like this though... Troy basically said "I'm gonna keep it at 95% and hope it's enough to win" and Loic was saying "don't you think you need to commit a little more to beat guys like us Frenchies, who are riding closer to the edge?"

Great interview, really enjoyed that one.

 uups - she did it again… so young and already a LEGEND!
What a party at the ladies, next year:

Marine Cabirou
Nina Hofmann
Tracey Hannah
...all good for a win

 Usually her time is also up there with the elite, not today (no shame there of course!).

Is it because it's such a long and strenuous course that the older women outpower her?

 @Ronkol: i think it's lack of experience with a track this difficult. it will take a few years of riding some of the rougher courses.

Right now I have the stream coming to my phone, airdropped to my AppleTV to watch it on the big screen w/sound system. A Mac computer would work just as well.

 @slayerdegnar: I'd be more than happy to pay $5.00 USD per race. I think with all the people in the world that watch, the extra income can go a long way of improvements. Then offer like $30.00USD for the season, I'm sure plenty would pay.

Top that with a couple adds from big companies and we just might have a professional production on our hands! ...If only.

 Such a crazy race again! As a frenchy I m glad to see Bruni got it again but what I enjoy even more is to see Minaard, Greenland, Hart, Bruni, Vergier, Pierron and Brosman challenging each others. Thank you guys for the show!

 Year 2030 Jeopardy Question:

He is the only member of UCI MTB Hall of fame who never won a world cup?

So gutted I really thought he had it!

P.S. I know there is a MTB hall of fame but here is a request to have a World Cup hall of fame. It should be in Garibaldi or Squamish. Most who are coming to whistler for MTB would stop by so you could get a lot more visitors than Marin MTB Museum. You can also have previous bikes and other paraphernalia like the Devinci that Stevie won the WC overall or the chainless bike that Gwen won his WC. Damn I would pay to see those and more. Make it happen!!
  • 6 2
 Greg, Danny, Laurie, Amauri all deserved to win. But Loic raised himself to new heights. Too achieve that with the pressure of the overall, defending the stripes and the background of Brook's serious crash show his head is unbreakable. A conservative run would have been forgiveable, but we got greatness instead. Outstanding.

 Well done Miryam and Tahnee!!! Really happy for you both!!

I would really know what all the other girls are thinking. Being beaten by someone who won a gold medal doing a chicken line should make me think a lot about my racing skills Smile
  • 4 0
 The chicken line allegedly cost around a second so that was that, but I particularly wonder how Tracey Hannah feels. You sort of see a natural order being restored here, with Nicole and Seagrave back to being fastest, with Cabirou, who has been getting faster and beat Hannah recently, in third. Still she should win the World Cup

 @The-Foiling-Optimist: tracey had two bad crashes in practice and it showed. i don't blame her. it's quite hard to take things at full speed when you've got recent crashes weighing on you, as well as probably a lot of pain.
marine also excels in rock/tech, vs. tracey excelling in high speed and jumps.

 Am I the only one who didn’t see any of Matt Walker’s run only to have him hold the hot seat through the entire broadcast? I was watching since about midway through the women’s elite. Did they skip over it?

 I saw both respective Matt Walker's runs. Obviously being so early the kiwi's run only had a small cut.

 In case you were wondering: Gwin in 12th, Mullaly in 23rd and Maes pulled off 20th.

Hart’s consistency is phenomenal this year, and while he may not take the top spot overall he’s gotta be close to it. Aside from Les Gets he’s been top 5 every race, something only Pierron and Bruni challenge.
  • 2 0
 you're forgetting about brosnan, who has also podiumed in all but one (and got 6th in that). the world cup rankings are covered at every world cup. loic is in 1st. danny is in 4th.

 Not sure I follow the timing/editing: right after a rider starts they are already at 2Mad x minutes? Where did those minutes come from? Do they count their qualifying time and then add to that when they start at the gate? Or are you not seeing the upper part of the course?
  • 1 0
 You aren't actually watching live, there is quite a big delay which allows them to shorten the runs for TV. The early riders get very little footage whilst the top 20 get more airtime.

 @ButtersNZ: It's changed yearly almost, but at Cairns they had that girl that often commentates the cycling at the Olympics and Commonwealth Games...from what I can recall, she was a retired roadie, and she (and her male cohort) only seemed to have the media fact sheet to go from; they would say the same irrelevant fact every other lap! It was better on mute.

At least towards the end of the DH today, the two guys were getting somewhat animated. But earlier on...crikey!

It would be much better with Rob...you can take or leave whoever he is with, but at least Rob has knowledge and actually sounds like he has a pulse

 Replay going on now, use a VPN attached to your browser. Selected Netherlands and let me in, wait 5 mins then turn VPN off. Then your using your full internet speed, works perfect, eat me raw NBC. Probably going to have to do this for Snowshoe also. My usual sites that work for NFL had the race but denied me access. VPN the only way but live in 1080p in NBC's face.
