Highlights Video - Lošinj DH World Cup 2018

 Mr President, there are 3 Americans on the podium of the last round of DH World Cup, what do you have to say?

Good day Claudio, it’s terrific, it’s uuuuge. A great day for the greatest Country in the World. Real downhill race that wasn’t rigged, you know, I prefer downhillers that don’t race Enduro, and those are the kind of real American MTBers that won today. I’m very happy, it’s very beatiful, tremendous. Enduro riders come to our trails, these are not nice people making French lines. Those are often French people. And Aaron, I know everything about Aaron, I’ve been at his housem rode his bikes, nobody knows more about Aaron than I do, we use same hair color. Mine is a bit more gold, and more slippery, and I think you find it to be faster. But yes, Aaron is a hero, real hero because he’s never been captured, Ok? The interview is over Claudio, no, no I say it’s over.

 how is everyone so on the ball getting these edits out?! killer coverage to all involved.

 "yeah, we'll give it a good nudge" - Brook MacDonald
understatement of the year? That crash was like a scene from Godzilla

 I'm interested in where the differences in speed were coming from in the first sector and that last wooded section. So many riders lost huge time in one or both sections even when they appeared to be ride it well. Maybe it was just the camera angles but I couldn't see much difference between riders. I like how Rob and Claudio were as confused as I was!

It made me realize how different mountain biking is compared to something like F1, where the drivers not only get 75+ laps of practice but the teams can also analyze their performance and their competitors performance in very accurate details to see where they're losing ground. The split differences here made it feel like many riders just didn't even know what was faster or not and which parts of the tracks could gain or lose the most time. Which makes sense given the lack of practice telemetry and such. So I learned that these races aren't just a test of bike handling skills but of experience and seat of the pants feelings to know if their line choices are actually fast. Which is refreshing coming from following the details and the split times of F1!

 Gwin not only the fastest but also the smartest big gun out there - rolling slow till it counts

 Gwin isn't invincible, but on race weekends like this one, he sure seems better than everyone else. Everyone else has to push themselves and their bikes to the ragged edge and hope for the best.

 Gwinner wins on a rocky track with 27.5 wheels?

You know... 29ers are the future, rolling smooth over the rocks and ruts, carry more momentum...

 That was a lot of fun, except for the street part, which was expected. I thought of this venue more as a slalom race than a downhill (sorry for the ski racing analogy). Still with only 7 races I will take anything UCI gives. 39 LONG days and nights to go. Cant wait. UCI needs a May race.

 GWIN JUMPED! smart to leave the bike tho

 We have concussion protocol to stop rider from risking further damage. Then we have The Bulldog who finishes his run with a broken collarbone. No protocol for that haha!

 The current state of DH - "Highlights" video showing power rangers sprinting down a street corridor. Brook Macdonald coming down the track and a sudden cut to him walking - They didn't even show the reason why he was walking and not on the bike... Something needs to be done about the UCI.

 Coverage has been great with Vital and Cathro really stepping it up but how come no Wyn TV post race interviews? Also any reason (besides Claudio having a massive off) RedBull didn't end up showing Claudio's course preview?

 Remarkable stuff.

 unstandable shitty music ?
