heywoodu 13,540 Posted July 14, 2019 #41 Share Posted July 14, 2019 Epic downhill yesterday https://www.redbull.com/int-en/events/AP-1XJS6F1KN2111/live/AP-1XH4Y6WCN1W11 I'd watch from 1:13 for Greenland's run and a half hour later for the deciders. If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

heywoodu 13,540 Posted August 2, 2019 #44 Share Posted August 2, 2019 That last lap of Van der Poel was (again) insane The way he completely, utterly destroyed Avancini....Mother of God, have mercy on our souls. Then again, those short track tracks are all just cyclo-cross tracks instead of really MTB tracks, which is of course completely perfect for him.

Gianlu33 3,570 Posted August 3, 2019 #45 Share Posted August 3, 2019 The Val di Sole downhill is probabily the best track of the season... Btw, Fontana was 100 times better how cyclist.. his technical comment is a bit annoying. He can work in Rai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can work in Rai be serious...if you watch on Red Bull TV, turn the English commentary on... by the way, yeah...I love the Val di Sole Downhill track... but easier tracks like Les Gets normally give us a lot more exciting races (as it happened 2 weeks ago), meawhile here we can clearly see how big the difference is between the very few top competitors and those immediately following them in the ranking (not to mention those outside the top 10/15)...

phelps 6,795 Posted August 4, 2019 #48 Share Posted August 4, 2019 what a race!!! unbelievable comeback by Neff, but what a tough reaction by Ferrand Prevot, who could stay with the Swiss in the last half lap and then beat her at the sprint finish... the best women's race of the year...by far...

heywoodu 13,540 Posted August 4, 2019 #50 Share Posted August 4, 2019 (edited) That Red Bull TV downhill commentator is both alright and extremely irritating. Greenland's win was entirely sure during the last guy's run, and he talked normally...until after the finish all of a sudden he went all AND IT'S ANOTHER BRITISH RIDER WHO TAKES HIS FIRST EVER WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! as if it was a huge sensation at that moment. Ugh, commentators who can't get people's attention by what they say and so they have to yell Random rider at split 2: 10 seconds faster than the current leading time Same rider at split 3: 11 seconds faster --> Commentator: "AND OH MY GOD IT'S 11 SECONDS!!"
