It's certainly been a real race of attrition at the front. Great stuff

 

(Nino a different story)

We got treated to a real good one today!

 

Stoked for Alan. Ditto for Andreassen as well, both put in a great performance!

 

Nino showed his class today. Truly a cut above the rest!

Simon actually made that look easy... He looked great pre and post lockdown.

Recon he will be consistently up there this season. Hoping Alan too...

 

How was that mushroom cloud from M Fluckiger ????

Nino's 11th at the moment! So a top 10 realistic result out the race for him!

 

 

Nino back in the top 10, looks like 7th.

 

 

Showing his absolute class and his determination!

 

Vader with good save!

 

 

Nino into 4th! What a rider!

 

Alan still in 6th. Hoping he can sneak into 5th!

 

It's going to be a tight fight for the win!

and I called it :P

That you did! I think today really just underlined his class. From the 4th row to finish 4th in the race says a lot.

 

Tomorrow's going to be a good one as well I reckon!

And following that pattern if he starts in the 1st row he will finish 1st :)

He doesn't look to have the speed out of the blocks like he did 2018 and 2019.

But he did lap more consistently so he's got the endurance. I reckon he'll do the same as Tuesday and just ease his legs in so I doubt he'll fight for front row start.

The endurance aspect will be key with so many races in such a short period of time .. those with more of a marathon training leading up to this race series may well fare a little better than the pure bred race snakes who need to recover for a couple of days between races.

Bang on the money!

Watch Alan next weekend as well. He was Swiss epic ready
