[UPDATED] Elite Finals Results & Overall Standings from the Les Gets DH World Cup 2023
@Dillonmennie: Yes, Warner was getting a little stale near the end there. Still love the guy but he started to become almost predictable and a bit to processed. Like he had a set amount of preplanned puns and weird British sayings to blurt out when the opportunity came about. The new crew and commentators are going to school right now, let them learn and adjust.

[UPDATED] Elite Finals Results & Overall Standings from the Loudenvielle DH World Cup 2023
@suspended-flesh: Exactly, I think if you thought this season would be anything but different from last year then you were being a bit unreasonable. All in all I think they've done a good job considering the shoes they had to fill.

Comparatively free caster sucked. For it's day it was awesome because we never had the ability to stream the races. But it was better than nothing.

Qualifying Results Decide Final Standings as Junior Racing Cancelled at the Loudenvielle DH World Cup 2023
@Cabin: I didn't say they were sandbagging. I asked if they get points for qualifying. Then I stated what is known, that the Elites used to not get points for qualifying and would routinely stop on track to get a good start time. That's sandbagging at its finest but was within the rules. There's a classic shot of Matti doing it at Champery. Would be surprised if there's not something in the rules and regs that identifies a situation where qualifying determines winners because of mid-event cancellations. The one thing I can say is everyone better leave it all on the track every time it counts and be ready to rip at the drop of hat. Because it seems organizer doesn't know how to communicate there ideas to those who actually need it.

@sonuvagun: it may surprise you and 99% of the others on here complaining that you're opinions aren't taken seriously either. Especially when you all hide behind childish screen names while talking shit. I am who am, who are the rest of you? No one knows, and some how your opinion is supposed to matter and make some kind of change when you are just an anonymous ass hat on the internet. I'm willing to stand with my opinion, the rest of you hide and point fingers like children. Good luck getting change to happen when all your names read like some kind of kids cartoon.

Qualifying Results Decide Final Standings as Junior Racing Cancelled at the Loudenvielle DH World Cup 2023
@ajayflex: Do juniors not get points for qualifying? Serious question, always assumed they did. If not then I get the strategy, it's also why they did away with it in Elite's years back. Just makes a joke of qualifying if you can sandbag for a better start time. I know from experience of competing and watching all kinds of sporting events that as soon as they start taking score regardless of qualifying, semi's or finals you better be trying to win. Events get cancelled, and sometimes people get wins from qualifying or half ran main events that don't get counted as the final results. It sucks, but it is what it is unfortunately. Things will get better.

@sonuvagun: I do understand running a competition is monumentally harder and more complex then being a competitor. Maybe if more of you wouldn't be completely biased with your opinion then I could take you seriously. John Hall had the best answers about it. Everyone else is just jumping on the shit train.

@tjbikes: who's fault is that? Did the UCI or Event Organizer keep them from doing well in quali's? Heard that some teams were giving orders to take it easy in qualifying, that was a stupid decision and it was made by particular teams and riders. Play stupid games win stupid prizes.

@bikes-arent-real: It's a win, and will be recorded as such. But go ahead and shit on someone else's achievement.
