世界盃威廉堡站決賽回顧

Jun 9, 2014
by Ian Chu  
2010年六月:一名年僅18歲Sam Hill的徒弟,跟著Monster/Specializes/Mad Cats車隊抵達蘇格蘭威廉堡。他的名字叫Troy Brosnan,成績4:53.8,排名57。

2014年六月:22歲的Troy Brosnan再次來到威廉堡。這次他的成績比師父高了一名,並且寫下記錄,成為第一個在威廉堡如此殘酷賽道上,拿下首勝的車手。

bigquotesTroy在跑的時候,播報室裡一片狂叫,老實說感覺都要招來別人抗議了。但如果你看見有人如此精采的表現,又是最後一個下山的人,你大概也會為之瘋狂,對吧?真的太嗨了。Rober Warner爵士 - 卓越職業播報員。

the mixed weather in Scotland makes for some breathtaking scenery.

Ahhhhhh the fickle weather of Scotland. While we didn t get snow this week we got just about everything else mother nature has to offer. Four seasons in one day.
啊.....蘇格蘭無常的天氣。除了下雪之外,我們嚐到各種能夠出現的天候狀況。一天內就有四季變化。

This was the weather as riders headed up for the first practice session. At this point it was anyone s guess as to what the weather would do on the day.
這是第一次練習時段山頭上的狀況。大家對接下天氣都只能猜了。

Beaumont正在纜車箱裡調整龍紋風鏡帶。他今年將會搶回一些大家在安瑟頓家的目光。

There are a LOT of thirsty fans here in Fort William...
在威廉堡,這邊有很多口渴的車迷。

What can you say about Martin Maes other than the guy is a freaking power house. His first world cup. His first World Cup win. Belgium s first World Cup win. Well done Maes well done.
明顯看得出來,Martin Maes的過人之處就在於他強大的體力。這是他的第一個世界盃出賽。他的第一個世界盃分站冠軍。比利時人的第一個世界盃分站冠軍。幹的好!Maes。

Martin Maes may have beaten Loris today in a World Cup DH but Loris beat Martin in an EWS race last year so as far as we can reckon they are even regardless of racing discipline.
Martin在世界盃下坡賽擊敗了Loris,但是Loris去年在世界Enduro系列賽中也擊敗過Martin。我們可以看見,選手間的競爭已經出現跨領域的現象。

Ahhhhhh the fickle weather of Scotland. While we didn t get snow this week we got just about everything else mother nature has to offer. Four seasons in one day.
威廉堡史詩般的景色。

Emmeline Ragot warming up with her mechanic Billy on hand for whatever she might need. Being a professional mechanic at this level is a lot like being a bartender psychologist--Billy is there to provide whatever Emmeline needs prior to starting the clock on her race run advice warm gloves water... you name it Billy supplies it.
Emmeline Ragot熱身時,他的技師Billy隨侍在側回應他的任何需求。在這個境界的技師,大概就是酒保/心理師的合體 - Billy必須提供起跑前Emmeline需要的任何東西:建議、暖過的手套、水....只要說的出來,Billy就得拿的出來。

Ragot on track for a rock stat time....
Ragot正在初段上飛馳。

There is no better way to validate a new bike than with a World Cup win. Doing so with 8 seconds of authority is even better.

Davinci車隊的Mark Wallace正在路上。這路看起來好像不難,但對於氣喘吁吁的選手而言,最快的跑法就是冒著踏板卡到那幾塊大石頭的風險,跑內側的走線。

Marcello Gutierrez modeling his brand new mouth guard. I never thought about wearing one until I broke out a couple teeth. Now I always wear one. It has some other benefits too. When asked Gutierrez claims it aids his breathing and also works in the event of a crash to prevent concussions.

決賽在數萬名觀眾前展開序幕。天空始終籠罩著陰晴不定的因子,但是還好只是雷聲大雨點小。

Isak Leivsson KO d himself hard during his run and didn t make it down the mountain at least from what he can remember . The Norwegien has style for miles.
