this sport is SO freakin hard to stay at the top of. Everything has to go perfectly to even get on the podium, and Greg's ability to be at the sharp end as technology, tracks, approach to training, etc. has changed over the years is just unreal

Was there something wrong with brunis fork or did he just up low speed compression for the pedally bits. Minnar has some strong legs on him always killed it on pedally tracks. His wiki is mental he has all the medals for south africa and they are 5th over all in medals, he has 3g 4s and 3b for overalls, 22 wins 24 2nds and 16 3rds total times on the podium is just insane and that doesnt include 4ths or 5ths.

I think he locked out the rear. That’s what it looked like to me

Was just talking about him this morning. I think he won his first word cup race the year I went to uni. A lot of water under the bridge since then and he's still doing it. Just an amazing, amazing career.

I thought it was equally as interesting that he seemed to be full on covering something on his bars in the finish area.

My all time favourite rider along with Peaty and seeing them together at the finish was incredible.

@Monkeyfcuker: Pinkbike already showed he has a secret button on his bars and a cover around the top of his rear shock, 100% he locked it out/switched to pedal mode for the straight

Amazing for Greg. The thing that always gets me is he never looks like he's really trying. Such a smooth and intelligent rider. Good to see Pompon take the win too, I feel sorry for her that she never got to race a World Cup in the rainbow stripes, hopefully she'll get another chance.

The V10 is kicking ass this truncated race year. The Syndicate is back! The experience of Minnaar and Peaty and some deep pockets - success seemed inevitable.

Can't believe pinkbike haven´t post anything about minaar's victory... it's certain that the whole dh world couldn't be more happy to see the goat take another win to the record, and pinkbike makes no noise? this diserves a dedicated note and nothing.

Courteous to give everyone a chance to watch the replay before splashing the headlines.

I'm sure they're just as psyched as the rest of us, but I really like that they stopped posting spoilers about race winners a while back

Minnaar is unreal, super stoked for him. Also great to see Myriam take a WC win (on top of the rainbow jersey last season) after coming back from injury. Gwin also coming back to speed. I really hope next year behaves itself.

The sound of those Chris King hubs buzzing over the jumps is amazing

Beautiful run from Minnaar. Sheer commitment from 5:10 onwards. Last jump into the finish line straight was epic.
