Nope that’s not correct. Annie Last withdrew due to a cold as did Jenny Rissveds. Annika said on her insta feed that she just wasn’t feeling good on the bike. No power and no mojo. No mention of a cold. Maybe it is the case that she has a cold but it’s not the message from the rider or her team

Then I misheard.

Nino is certainly not going to have it his own way this season - not only Mat but a few others as well. Although his dominance made him a legend, its not exciting for the racing fans.

My podium predictions for the past wknd was

1. vd Poel

2. Lars

3.Nino

 

Coming sunday will be more technical. Think we will see good battle between Nino and vd Poel

It seems Lars is in better shape than Nino currently, pity he is out for this weekend. He took a few big falls on sunday.

Yeah, was not a fun day to be Lars. That last fall looked like he scraped one of the fence posts... I agree with him looking in better shape. (Before the falls) 

 

One of the commentators mentioned that Nino said the younger generation is catching up on him. (That sort of tone at least)

 

M vd P is a breath of fresh air and great for the sport. He has the talent to draw crowds like only Tiger Woods can in golf... He was also riding a hardtail with no dropper!

Did Hatherly have mechanical issues?

 

(Or is the whole concept of mud just too much for him after two consecutive droughts in the Cape?)  :whistling:

26th position amongst the world best is nothing to sneeze at. He is there and thereabouts

He's pulled out of Nova Mesto already due to lack of form.
