Capricorn Posted June 9, 2016 Share 6-event world cup series + 1 x world champs. one less event in the world cup series than this year, and strangely, it's Lenzerheide. Does the DH track need a rest or something? it's practically still brand spanking new. I hope its a misprint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Posted June 9, 2016 Share Is that the final list ? Can't say. It's just what is on their calendar. I haven't seen them announce it officially yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nigelhicks Posted June 9, 2016 Share I would hazard a guess that it will likely be the final list. 6 XCO and 6 DH. fair across the disciplines so thats a plus. - you may find that funding is a bit tight or something. Interesting though that Lenzerheide isnt in there as they have the World Champs in 2018 scheduled already , and you generally use the year befores World Cup as a "test" to iron out any issues before worlds itself. Maybe its a funding issue from their side that they need to keep money aside for World Champs. ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarlvN Posted June 10, 2016 Share What, Cascades not good enough for them any longer? Are we expected to support this idiocy? A World Cup / World Championship for the elitist Europeans only? If Greg Minnaar is not there, I ain't supporting it no longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Greg Minnaar is not there, I ain't supporting it no longer. Cool your jets. So much anger for a Friday. Do you know what it costs these teams to travel all over the globe to race? It makes a lot more financial and logistical sense to have the majority of the racing in Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
