I am sure I saw a RBTV segment show a 300mm gap between the two of them ... so essentially a ruler length

Yeah, at the speeds these guys do 0.1s is usually about 1m at the finish line so 300mm sounds about right for that time gap.

Vali is just starting to show what she can do.

RE the overall ... Vali crashed out early in the first few races and had to just settle down .... she is there now, and will be a force to deal with in 2022.

Now Nina, 2022 will be the year she really breaks into the podium ... if she can stay on the bike, and I think she has figured that out.

The ladies XCO and DH racing has been really entertaining the last few years, and looks to be even better for 2022

Snowshoe seems to have a way of delivering the drama and surprises.

"Update on Jess Blewitt after her horrible crash. Jess has a broken femur requiring surgery. She also has a broken collarbone, wrist , cracked rib & two small cracks in her lower back fortunately none of which require surgery."

Eina, I thought as much.  That was a very bad high speed crash.

Thanks Tim. I pray she recovers fully. That was a horrible crash. It looked like she landed squarely on her head at speed. I was sure she injured her neck but glad she seems to not have that as well.
