4 Things We Learned from the 2026 Lenzerheide DH World Cup
@BenPea: are you suggesting that's been the only positive change leading to this run? I'd say there are probably many factors.

@jaytdubs: sounds like he's been spending time with mental coaching, or something similar. He says his mindset has been better than ever, and I have no doubt that's helping him reach another level.

Same, but as soon as I was emersed in mtb culture it was very clear what that term was used for.

Bike Check: Valentina Roa Sánchez's MS Racing Zerode G3
In this scenario you're describing, it's the Engineer's job to interpret rider feedback. If that Engineer can only think and communicate in the "language of physics" that's the Engineer's problem.

Leogang DH World Cup Preview: Who’s Racing, How to Watch & What to Expect
@toast2266: I don't think there's an issue with money in the sport at the moment but I do think it's not being allocated as well as it could be. The cost/value of the legit viewing avenues differs wildly from region to region, and I think it's very short sighted to think that fans should blindly pay into the system while thinking that the money from that revenue stream will directly benefit the racers.

@toast2266: The point is that you have no idea how much of the live stream revenue ends up actually supporting the race infrastructure, as evidenced by your suggestion that UCI pays into the prize money. So you have no idea, and based on the changes that have taken place since Redbull was in charge, I'd suggest it's negligible. Minor increases in race infrastructure have been made, while incurring massive increases to the cash inputs from teams/racers, viewers (and likely venues as well).

Leogang DH World Cup Preview: Who’s Racing, How to Watch & What to Expect
@toast2266: The VENUES are actually responsible for providing the prize money (see Wynn's last video). And the venues pay crap-loads of money to host a race, while the teams pay crap-loads of money to compete at and travel to the venues... So who's paying for the expanded race season??
