Video: Post-Race Interviews from the Les Gets DH World Cup 2021

Jul 3, 2021
by Ed Spratt  

Dan Wolfe was on the ground after the Les Gets Finals to get reactions and interviews with riders.

After an insane race where the heavens opened partway through, it was Thibaut Daprela who came down to take the men's victory with a calm and collected run to take his first World Cup win. Oh, and with a mouth full of stitches and a broken nose. Who knows what could have happened if the final men were all in the same conditions, but that's Mother Nature for you.

In the women's race, Tahnee Seagrave battled through some persistent injuries to take the win. Shout out to Myriam Nicole who despite a crash was less than half a second off the win. And to Mille Johnset who put 5 seconds into the rest of the field in the final split!

 Thibaut "Raging Bull" Daprela and his broken nose trying to pronunciate proper words with his swollen tongue and big smiles on his face. This guy is luminous.

 If you want to watch without getting bumped out to IG, just press the play arrow in the bottom left corner. I do think the format works well on IG but I'll look at some other options for future WCs.

 All of the great pre-race footage from the bike sites made it not so bad that the actual race was a bit of a wash out. Good job guys, much appreciated!
