 Interesting thing about start position,so now every stage raced and how you finish it is even more important. If you loose/gain some positions you would start next track in whatever overall position you are.I think it is a wild format with potentially far more overtakes in the track.

 Is it every stage? I thought it was just the final stage where they seed them at the top based on current position for the day.

 Ought! I ve been heard! I ve been saying kinda this many times... And the best would be having the real time gaps at the start of each rider so you have a live GC displayed...

 This course looks amazing!!!! Would love to ride all that backwoods stuff. Fingers crossed the new format works for the racers. Fingers crossed we get better coverage than last year Moi Moi aside.

 Is the race going to be televised? I just searched it on discovery+ and nothing came up.

 Love the enduro number plates but I have had no luck finding a way to get one as a civilian rather than a pro...

 They used to be available from the EWS shop but doesn’t look like the case anymore. I actually bought one over a year ago…great idea - reusable, potential for standardised race plates across race series’ etc…but mine broke at the bracket on the first race (the breakaway design failed to do its job)! Contacted the EWS store but never got a reply.

 Much better course preview format in my opinion.

 Lacking the fun of Ruaridh and Ric riding the course though. I reckon the "mere mortal attempts pro race course" format is better entertainment value, like Rob Warner riding with Jess at Crankworx Rotorua.

 From my understanding, EDR is only replays on the UCI YouTube channel. Similar to previous years.

 Only a 30min recap. What a joke.

 Carlson being groomed for interview skills. Career almost over. Need proof? Tracey Hannah, Eliot Jackson, Marcelo Gutierrez, etc. If you downvote this, you're a big fan of mine and a big fan of the truth.
