Pro men’s field 197 deep, not counting non-participants. DH racing is healthy in France. Sheesh.

I was curious if this is the actual number of elite men or if, because it's the national championships, they just squashed all the categories together. Likewise, Lisa Bouladou raced in elite, despite being a junior for the world cup. .

@The-Foiling-Optimist: it's the full scratch results. 6th place women is an U17

Thing is he's half of the next big deal. If it's not one winning, it'll be the other.

@jason3559
Every national champs I means the ‘Elite’ field is no longer, it’s classed as ‘Men or Women’.
Juniors or any Seniors 19-29 can win the Nat Champs jersey and medal.

I keep waiting for Hugo to hit his stride. I swear he's going to get a win from out of nowhere and be a top contender.

Having seen Alran at fort William he's superb. But with people like George Madely etc he'll have to work for it.

On the men side, there are 40 riders within 20 seconds of the winning time, French men's DH has depth
