'Dale Posted July 10, 2022 Posted July 10, 2022 (edited) That precious inside lane, getting in their first crucial. So, so, so close for Alan. Geez, the margins, milli-millimetres! Heaven for Braidot with his first ever win; torment for Schurter, pursuing that milestone. Schurter: “he overtook me where you cant make a safe pass. He crashed into me; as soon as there is a contact, one should stay behind” Flückiger: “its no time trial; i learned from Nino to race aggressively; this time we collided Sauce: Swiss TV Respect for the men and women in the arena. Such deep fields; such hectic intensity. One point difference on the women’s scoreboard. Edited July 10, 2022 by 'Dale ChrisF 1

I think that section was not covered by cameras, unfortunately Nino basically says that Flucki took him out, and that this type of thing should not happen at a Swiss WC race between 2 Swiss racers…..whilst Flucki saying sorry but that’s racing. Have a look at the clip below ((sorry it’s in Swiss deutsch) during the podium prize giving, Swiss body language…..they clearly don’t agree. its going to boost the tv ratings for the next few XCO WC mens races https://www.srf.ch/sport/mehr-sport/rad/cross-country-in-lenzerheide-abschuss-im-zauberwald-schurters-grosser-aerger-ueber-flueckiger

Some of the best bar to bar racing in n long while. The A and B lines had many very close calls .... it was just a matter of time .... Even some close racing, though short lived, in the ladies race as well. DieselnDust 1

It was a matter of time and no quarter was given and therein lies the rub of the d hurt et Fluckiger battle. When you needle your opponents over and over again one day they say no more kosmonooit 1

That’s a better image than the one he projected after crossing the finish line. A bit of time to settle the emotions , #tjankitoff and smile for the camera. has it rained in Andorra? If not the fireworks between these two will lead to scorched earth

Danger Dassie Posted July 10, 2022 Posted July 10, 2022 Show of character from Hatherly saying how he'd rather have gone toe to toe four up, even though it's all part and parcel of racing. Sincere and stoic, good man. Completely speculative, but given the most recent interviews on the crash, it wouldn't be surprising if there were some strong words in the forest after the crash. Which is probably also why all the riders ducked the question. Fair enough I suppose, but under Eurosport/GCN the question would be a bit more hardballed. Swiss TV provided the visuals. It was probably a logistics/capacity call camera placement in that section of forest. With the amount of phone cameras though, I wouldn't be surprised if some spectator footage showed up online, probably from some random like a Felix Munchaussen or something. Whose 20 strong Instagram account will blow up into 200k overnight as people view his amateur clip amongst his homemade strudel and mountain top pet selfies. Ps ... The Fluck is ginger AF with that beard. Who knew. DieselnDust, Hairy, Frosty and 2 others 5
