Don't ask a rider racing in the race, who they think will win the race. What a stuoid question. How are they meant to answer. These are cringe-worthy, amateur attemtps at press conferences. Interview the riders after the race, get the team bosses and managers out to do the press conferences pre-race. Leave the riders to focus and prepare. That's how established mainstream sports do it if that what they want to pretend they are by attemtping this charade.

Pre/mid game interviews are so pointless. I really hate them in any sport, but action sports are worse. These people are expected to market themselves as personalities on social media already, we don't need cookie cutter interviews of athletes that we already are over informed about.

@kelvo: Wyn is a staple in MTB. He gets a pass.

What's this riders press conference BS?
How about riders getting paid properly before getting them to front up like dancing monkeys

Funny how they only seemed to ask RockShox riders about their electronic suspension

None of the riders are paid for press conferences or on screen time.
