[Music] Oh no. Oh no. Oh no. Well, we’ve just wrapped up the race here in Andor. This is Win TV. We’re going to go and see what we’ve done. Let’s go. Yeah. Yeah. All right, Lloyd. Great, great job. Uh, you actually won the race in the first split. Yeah, I decided to try to push my uh advantage and the first split is always good for me here. I don’t know why I’m heavy. So, for once it’s kind of sick. Yeah. And I just railed the top, did the stayed below the holes and then carried good speed. Didn’t change my line in the first row garden, too, which was I think I was one of the only one to not go to the inside. Oh, really? And uh and it was sick. But the rest of the track was sick. Everything was so cool. So, honestly, the track was really good today. And it must be a good feeling to end the win streak of Jackson. Man, best feeling. You know, it’s been quite frustrating to be not good enough. He’s been better dominating until uh until today even though he’s still second, so it’s still quite unreal. But be beating him is one of the main goal, you know, and was the main goal also getting some redemption from last year. Yeah. And uh so both, let’s say, in one one race. So, I’m really really happy about this and uh it keeps the overall hand alive too and keeps him on his toes because it was too easy for him until now. So, it’s good and yeah, nice break now. So, it’s nice to go into the break after a nice win. Yeah, bro. It’s always good to to end up on a high even though like the season is far from over. Uh it’s good to know like if we make it happen, if we do the run that we want with the team, we can beat him and we can beat everyone. So, of course, every race is different. Every track like now the next tracks are going to be pretty difficult. Like leger is hard, Jumper is hard. Like all the tracks are quite sketchy, but uh we’re good there. So, we can we can have a hope to do well. But yeah, man, I’m so stoked that when I cross the line, I was like the fire was burning. It was good. And Loris was like, “What the fuck?” Like I uh I don’t know, hugged him. Yeah. Hugged him super hard. He was like He was like, “Are you that happy?” I was like, “Yeah, so happy.” Yeah, it was good from last year because last year I also gave him a big hug but he won so it was a good the rolls have reversed. Exactly. It was really good. All right. Well, nice work, mate. Epic stuff. And you get Jackson back for his trolling on you a little bit on the social media. Did he troll me? Yeah, he gave you he commented on your super brun post on the UCI. I did not see that. And he put kryptonite. Ah, no you put that. No, I didn’t. Jackson did. Did he? But you’re not UCI Gary. No, I’m not UCI Gary. I’m not. Who’s UCI Gary? I don’t know. That’s the question. Who is Who is UCI Gary? Who is UCI Gary? Please send us a text. But yeah, I saw I saw that photo. I saw it. But guess what? Kryptonite can’t kill me. Ah, let’s go. Love it. Cheers, mate. Well done. Yeah, great job, man. Thank you, Rob. Yeah, be be proud of yourself. Yeah. For this weekend is the pressure in the top is very very pressing. Yeah. Yeah. But it’s insane. insane to be the last man was crazy. Yeah. Yeah. Very crazy. My run is I don’t know my pleasure. Oh, but uh amazing effort all week, mate. And to be the last man on this mountain, you have to be proud. So, well done. Yeah. Thank you, bro. Be proud of your effort. Yeah. All right, Jess. Uh, how was that fourth? Yeah, I’m really loving the OG podiums right now. Yeah. Yeah. Um, well, it would have been a good podium. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. So, yeah. I mean, I’m happy. There’s a lot of consistency, so it’s good. And it would have been cool to see Gracie get a podium with a crash as well. That would be I know. I am quite gutted on that one. Yeah. Her run was something to watch, wasn’t it? That was insane. I I mean, I knew she could do it. She’s on She’s on board. She’s on next level. Yeah. Yeah. So, I’m gutted for her. Yeah. Yeah. But but you’ll be able to find that form as the season goes. You’re building. Yeah. just building. Yeah. Yeah. We’ll get there eventually. Yeah. But for now, it’s just like There was a bit more aggression in that one, though. Yeah. Especially Yeah. In parts. Uh it got a bit sketchy in some parts, too. Yeah. Nose dive. Yeah. I’m not supposed to do that, am I? No. So, it worked out pretty well. It worked out in the end. Yeah. Yeah. So, uh Yeah. And you weren’t standing on track this time, so No. So, I didn’t pull you off. No. Exactly. No, you didn’t go off track. I didn’t go off track. Well, it wasn’t my doing, actually, was it? No, I wasn’t. No, no, I’ll let you off. Yeah. All right. But yeah, but I I’ll still keep yelling. Yeah. No, dude. Yeah, cuz some quiet people on track. Yeah, we need a bit more like energy. Yeah, we need more people like that. It’s like you and uh Eddie are just bringing the the hype, you know? So, yeah. We need more more fans on track making more noise. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. Not those like blow ones. Those are And less chainsaws. Yeah. Keep the chainsaws up the mountain. Don’t bring them down here. Yeah. Exactly. Yeah. But uh stoked for a break now. Yeah. And it’s been a long long bunch of races. It feels like that. But yeah, still got like what? Six more. Yeah, we’re only I think five. Yeah. Well, six including Weld. So, we’re only halfway there. Crazy. Yeah. Yeah. Anyway, great great job. Thank you. Yeah. And top five. You got to be happy anyway. Yeah. Would have been the dream, I guess. But it’s still a good day at the office. Still a good day in the office. Exactly. Yeah. Every day walking out here is a good day at the office. Oh, every day walking out here in one piece is also a great day. Especially with the speed on that track. A it’s insane. Yeah. Yeah. Um another level. All right. Good job. Yeah. Thanks, Jess. All right. Probably the last thing you want to be doing at the moment is an interview. Uh I already did one, so it’s uh I’m I’m ready. I have the tape rolling. Yeah. Um what a day. Had that run was going amazingly well until it literally wasn’t in the last corner. Yeah. I struggled a little bit with that sector all week. Yeah. And uh I knew it wasn’t my strong point and I just wanted had to survive. I tried practice it this morning twice, but once you saw what happened previous in the up and the the lap before I stopped cuz I was a full run otherwise. So I had one bullet to shoot and I knew how to do it but I never tried it that fast. Yeah. So and I looked at the video actually from outside and appeared that I touched slightly a root. Yeah. on on going high and that moved my front wheel by a few centimeters. So, I ended up on a rock, bounced, and at that speed like it’s hard to it’s Yeah, it’s once you’re offline slightly, it’s hard to to to keep it. I’m I’m happy I saved it to be fair cuz it could have been bad. Yeah, it could have been a bad accident as far as uh your body goes as well. Yeah. At least at least I’m all good because that could have been much worse. Yeah. And it would be worse to be leaving here with some sort of injury and there also the Terrible crash. Yeah. Like like will hurt both ways like this. Now leaving emotionally heartbroken. But you know what could have been? Yeah. But man, it’s the third thing third in a row cuz Valdisaw Lat. Yeah. This one. Um but this one was almost the win as well. More more than the others. Could have been. Maybe not cuz I seen Lo before my crash Lo was 6 up but considering the gap the second it would have been second place maybe which still would have been a dream come true. Yeah like more than a dream. Yeah. So I didn’t expect I knew I had the speed. I didn’t expect that much to be fair but I was pushing and I was happy with the run. It wasn’t too crazy. Yeah. So yeah. Wow. I don’t don’t know. Yeah, I don’t know. I’m happy at least my teammates did uh did well, so they kept up the flag for the rogue racing. Yeah, the team is doing really well. What’s been the secret this year to to perform so well for this little team? The team has been amazing the last few years. You also saw yourself, it’s uh like the amount the amount of work they do is uh unmatched. Like yesterday, they went home at 1 half in the morning. No. Yeah. In the morning and they woke up at 5. Yeah. So, it’s they’re always the the last to leave and uh the first here. And the first here. So, that pays off and uh we have to do that if we want to catch up with the other teams. Yeah. Without the budget. Yeah. Plus the addition of of the Frenchies this year has been a big big big step up because they introduce a different uh workflow which merged all together. I think it’s pushing everything up and uh also I’m learning a lot of stuff from them and uh that’s it. It’s just uh everyone pushes each other so it’s uh I’m I’m like you cannot tell now but I’m very happy overall. Yeah. Yeah. Well, at least you know you you now can believe that you could win potentially on your day. You can win now. It’s Yeah, it’s it’s true. It’s true. Previously like you’re like you you race every time you race you probably like yeah I want to win but now you can believe it. I’ll believe it when I do it. Yeah of course. So but but to go come so close is also special like Dak said you don’t forget that confidence 10 10 seconds away. Yeah. And Dak was the same last year. He almost won the world champs in the same Yeah. after. Yeah. I that’s why I actually he was one of the first to come to me and I didn’t want to talk to anyone. And I was like, I get out of there. I just talked to you cuz I really know you know how it feels. Yeah. So, yeah. Anyway, amazing ride, mate. And it was unreal. I couldn’t even I was almost laughing at Leo’s face when he saw the split time 2.1. He couldn’t He’s like, “What?” He couldn’t believe it. Poor poor Leo. Poor Leo. His heart won’t take that uh for long. But uh yeah, amazing work. Well done. And uh yeah, I give you Thanks, man. No, good good riding all all week and uh yeah, amazing stuff. It was great to see. So, nice work. Thanks, guys. Cheers. All right, Nina, you’re still sliding backwards down the mountain. What? I have to I have to see my crash. I I mean, I know what went kind of wrong, but kind of not. You hit the boom and your foot came out. Yeah. Well, I was going for it and I was hitting this long one before and brake le for the very first time. I was like, “Oh my gosh, this is speed.” And I was already in my head already as I’ve done it all the time just with that speed and the way I was hitting it was probably a little a tiny little bit too much and I just got pinged out of the clip. Um and then I was so scared of this next jump. Oh [ __ ] Exactly. I was I’m glad I kind of saved that one. I literally stood there was like how did I save it? How Because if the bike had highsided there it’s worst case scenario. Exactly. I think I made the best out of it. I’m actually fine. The best crash you could have done is like you’re just sliding backwards and and I’m waiting for the memes to come of you just still sliding backwards. Oh gosh. Um yeah, but to be fair, that was an insane race. Gracie was on fire. I I’m not sure if I I’m pretty sure I could have not done that. And even Tani was on one. Um they both were on a different level. Yeah. So, I’m pretty I don’t know if I could have made it. I mean, to be fair, how I started, I felt it. Like, I felt like I can do I was definely given it. I can I can do a quick one today. Really fast one. And I knew like last week was a bit different. You were kind of like just riding smooth and smart was the key. But this track, you just need to fully attack. This is why I went all in. And um I’m fine with that crash. It happens. My first like except of Leo, my first crash this season. Um in race, race run crash as well. It’s fine. Um, it happens. Exactly. Exactly. I pushed the limit a bit today and also the dirt got better and better and more grippy. I think this just added more speed to the whole race and um Crazy. Yeah. Yeah. Well, I’m glad glad it worked out as well as it did. Well done saving it. And uh you even had time to stop for a selfie mid run. Oh, that was funny because she messaged me on Instagram yesterday saying she can’t speak English and if I can if if we can get a selfie and I said, “Yeah, just come by the pits after the race. All good.” Then I remembered it because she sent me the marsh at point. I was like, “Oh, this must be her.” So I looked over and took the selfie. She was stoked. Why are you keeping the marshals happy anyway? Yeah. I was just enjoying that run for one day there. I was like, “Oh, let’s cruise. The bike was fine.” And I was like, “Oh, cool.” After that, you’re like, “I’m alive. You got to enjoy this.” Absolutely. That’s that’s how I went down. Yeah. All right. Well, good job. And I’m glad it worked out as as well as it did. So, yeah. Thank you. Nice work. Yes. Yes. Good to see you smiling. Yeah. Yeah. I have to. Yeah. Valentina, you’ve gone from not qualifying to finishing sixth. What what a what a day. Yeah, I’m really happy. I’m so stoked. But good lap. I’m so happy. Really happy. You were really aggressive this morning in the bottom section. Yeah, I feel really good in this morning. I don’t feel pressure only fun and that’s nice. Yeah. And give it that. So it must be nice to to deliver the run you wanted. Yeah. Yeah. But really good. Yeah. All right. Good job and great for Colombia. Unfortunate for Wu with the crash, but amazing weekend for him. Yeah, amazing week for her. He have uh speed that this is important. But the next one. Yeah. On to the next one. Good job. Thank you. Nice work. All right, Pinky. So, you’ve lost the streak of being the man that was going through Q1 every time. Yeah. And you had unfortunate crash yesterday, but you actually set the fastest splits. Yeah. Yeah. Unfortunate three or two crashes yesterday, but had three of the fastest sector times. Wow. So, I was like happy about that and I’d rather have it that way than like be slow on race day. So, like found the pace. Just need to it’ll come together at some point, but um yeah, I was happy with the pace and how I was riding. So, yeah. All right. Well, not where you want to be to watch the race, but um yeah, great pace all week. Yeah. Yeah. Worst feeling watching the race, but at least I know like I was probably the fastest rider, so that’s good to know. All right. Well, we’ll see you at the next one. And bring that speed. Yeah, exactly. Let’s bring it. Let’s go. Wa. Dak, you’re back in the top 10, mate. Yeah, I guess you could the all the saying the deck is back that I’ve seen like it’s actually true now. Now I feel like it’s true. The deck is back. Yeah, I was saying the deck attack. I’m not track. Yeah, I was Dak was attacking on track. Yeah. Yeah, that deck attack. Yeah. No, it was uh sick, dude. Sick day. Like far exceed exceeded expectation. Yeah. More than I could have thought. Yeah. And Yeah. So, going into the break now, you can get back to work, try and get things a bit stronger, get some more riding in. Yeah. I need to get I need to get like I need to get some strength. I like can’t pistol squat onto a bench. And uh I feel like it’s just such a limiting factor in my runs when I’m like always getting those moments where I’m like you you hear the GoPro and it’s like and you’re trying to like hold yourself up and just like a lot of the commitment it takes to go like the speed of the top guys I just don’t have the strength to do at the moment. So um like I I honestly struggle to like do 135 for five squat at the moment. Like it’s like really bad. So now I can go home, start to build some some muscle in the hamstring and uh yeah try to get stronger. That’s the biggest biggest thing. Like I didn’t feel like I was like out of breath at the bottom. It was just commitment. Um I feel like my brain’s getting a lot faster. Like I’m able to process things at at race pace now. But yeah, I just need to overall get stronger. Mhm. But you’ve got to be happy to go into the break with a good result and be back in that finals and then a top 10 as well. Yeah, it’s a much it’s a much different feeling going into the break. Like I was pretty frustrated and pretty pissed off and I was like man I like have to do the run of my life for 40th and I was like I’d come down and qualify and be like what? So I feel like I was able to like make the jump onto that faster pace and then we’ll see go home and it’ll be a little easier to ride the dirt bike a little bit and hang out with my dog and my girlfriend and enjoy life a little bit knowing that it’s coming. you know, like I’m still going to work crazy hard and I’m going to push super hard, but it’s uh it’s a little easier to rest your head at night knowing that you’re making the jump back into the pace and not fighting for 40th. This was not because because right now the level of the sport’s so deep that that fighting for 40th is not far back. No, no, it was actually I believe it was about 3 seconds back maybe yesterday. I uh I was like 1.5 off Loris. I mean, obviously like blew us blew us out of the water. Like, but I almost went over the last corner and lost at least a half a second there. And so, I would have been like one second behind Loris, which I think is pretty sick. Um, but yeah, the pace is crazy. Honestly, my race run didn’t feel as good as Q2. And Q2 I was I mean, I was second in Q2, but like the pace was really good in the final. So, all those guys would have stepped up and swung for it. Yeah. So, pretty cool. Q2 is quite a fight. Dude, it was gnarly. Like, it’s But then I see the guys that didn’t have to do that coming out of Q1 and maybe struggled a bit more with the pace on race day. It It also helps to have maybe some extra time on track at race pace. Yeah, I think it helped push my pace up, which was able to help me do better in finals. So, overall, I’m stoked. It was super sick weekend. Uh I feel like even though it was last year, I did really well here for about 99% of the track. Yeah, it felt good to get it done, get to the finish line, and yeah, maybe not the pace that I rode last year, but still a little bit of redemption cuz this one this one hurt. Yeah. So, it was uh pretty good weekend. And you know exactly how David A. Palazari is feeling right now. You know what? I know exactly how he’s feeling cuz I’ve been there. You know, he qualified fourth. I have crashed a lot going down at the end and had fast splits and then just didn’t stay up. And the reality is like that confidence doesn’t go away of seeing that speed and you can’t forget that. So he’s I gave him a big hug and he’s like wasn’t super happy. But yeah, he’s not good good. You shouldn’t be happy with that. But at the same time, he’s not going to forget it. So dude, dude’s that dude’s fast. That was great. Great to see from him. Yeah. Yeah, it was cool. You can respect that a ride like that. and respect your comeback as well. So, well done. Enjoy it. Hell yeah, bud. Hell yeah, bud. All right. All right, Amry, I bet it feels good to be back on the pace. Yeah, feels good to be back on the pace, honestly. Really happy. Yeah, but uh just [ __ ] mistakes. Yeah. So, that’s hard to swallow, but you’re happy with the the pace. I had so much fun during race. It was insane. Track was so good today with the rain from yesterday. So about the best conditions we could have had on this track this morning was insane. It start to dry a lot for finals. Yeah. And it started to get loose again a little bit. But yeah, this morning never had like such a good condition. And you came into that B and what you slid a little bit or to miss the the turning point. Came a bit fast on the left. I should have take the brake a little bit. Yeah. But try to not hit that. And then I was slight offline, slide inside and didn’t I didn’t believe it. Yeah. Like I could but so I was like take the brakes again and you know stand up the bike then and offline and then it’s gone. Yeah. And then it’s gone. But uh yeah, great riding anyway. You you were right there and uh the pace was good. So must be good to be back up to pace just short time after injury. Yeah, definitely really good. Happy about the process I had for the last two three weeks. But uh yes, that’s just hard to swallow like you build everything to mess up like this. So it was hard. But yeah, happy with the building and excited for the rest of the season. All right, great work, mate. And loved to watch you riding back like that again. Like last week I could tell you have to hold back a little bit. This week you were not holding back. No, no. This week was really good. Had so much fun. Yeah. Nice to nice work. Must be good to feel like that again. Yeah. Yeah, definitely. It’s it’s good. It’s I think never why like this even at the start of the season. Yeah. So what’s good? All right. Good job, mate. Thank you very much. Nice work. Cheers. All right, mate. 15th, was it? Yeah. 15th. Yeah. Yeah. Which on this track is really good. A bees dick. There’s a bees dick between it all. You’re not far back. Nah. After last week, I just wanted to do a smooth run and not crash. So smooth run but 15th. So happy. Happy and solid. I’ve never seen Tony cry. So, it’s been pretty cool to see him like they’ve been building this team from what 15 years ago. So, cool to see some um yeah, some reward for him. Some emotion from the old man. Yeah. And Marty delivered a great run as well. So, what I’ve worked out this this week, he’s been hiding in the truck playing PlayStation cuz he’s never had one. So, I think we’re going to have to shout him one. So, we’re going to have one at home cuz I think that’s the the ticket. The key was the PlayStation. Yeah. Super cost. Get him focused. Yeah. Funny. And the hand eye coordination maybe was up to scratch today. Yeah, I reckon a little like he was hitting all the little downsides and stuff. Yeah, he’s flowing. Yeah, it looked good. He was doing a Marty flow. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Which not many people have sometimes. He doesn’t know it either. But watch out for the Marty flow tonight, mate, cuz it’s going to be dangerous. Yeah. Some of us have an early morning flight, but he’s not flying out till Monday morning. So, he’s probably going to rip a rip a hole in it. He was excited for it. Which is a dangerous statement from that man. Party muddy. Anyway, great job, mate. Thank you. Keep up the good work. All right, Lou in the in the top 10. You happy with that? Yeah, I’m pumped. I had a good run and didn’t risk my life, but still a good result. So Oh, perfect. Yeah. And then Millie on the podium as well. Good good day for the team. So good. And we’re only halfway through, but like I can’t believe it. Millie wasn’t qualifying like two races ago and now third place. It’s like I can’t I haven’t even processed it. She’s just she’s incredible. Yeah. And are you you both working together quite a lot? Yeah. Doing a lot of practice together. this track really suits her. It’s like so much commitment and like breaking is like super important and she’s just like she’s so like strong and like confident. So yeah, it’s been really sick this week just seeing her like thrive and then I was more nervous for like watching her run than I was before I dropped in. Yeah, especially that moment at the end. Oh my god, that was hard in the mouth. I actually saw in practice she got loose there as well and just managed to get away with it and I was like she’s just going to come in exactly the same. She’s not one of those people that holds back. Yeah. So, yeah, it was kind of it was really exciting but scary. Yeah. And now and now we’ve got Wan coming down and Oscar. Yeah. Big day for the team. Yeah. Yeah. Yesterday we were all drained from crying. So, I think I think I don’t have any tears left. I’m just like in shock. So, all right. Well, great job on the on the eighth and uh yeah, epic stuff for the team. Thanks so much. Nice work. Thanks, man. Cheers. Incognito. Yeah, I see that. Yeah. All right, Jackson. And you made it back to the pits incognito, which you probably have to do. You probably have the biggest entourage out of any of the riders. Yeah. Um I had to go to doping control after the run. So sprinted back here, changed clothes, put like a camo hat on, everything. Hood up, glasses on, tried to, you know, sneak my way to doping control because there’s Yeah, there’s a bunch of people outside the pits right now. So, um yeah, it’s pretty crazy. You know, all these people are wait, you can hear them chanting, you know, they’re waiting out in the rain. So, uh, won’t be too long here and then I’ll be out there. Yeah, we’re not going to hold you for too long. But, um, yeah. How was that race for you? Yeah, it was good. Um, I cannot be mad with second at all. You know, that’s still such a such a good result. Um, I could have rode better for sure. I I knew that. Um, what was missing? Where were you missing? Well, obviously the top split was 1.2 right there. Bang. So, and that’s how much he won by, I think. So, um, first split. Yeah. And then it was, you know, back and forth from there. Uh, you know, I gained a little bit. that he gained a little bit, but yeah, it just took me, you know, a few minutes to like settle into my run. Like I didn’t quite get that that race run feeling until like, you know, the speed trap area. Yeah. So, from there down it was was was a good run, but you know, you need to be, you know, firing from from the very top to to win these days. So, um yeah, just missed that little bit of uh oomph at the top, you know, on such a short track as well, which like it’s shorter than the others. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. Um, yeah. I mean, my Ren was 235. Like, that’s, you know, that’s a UK track right there. UK national. UK national right there. So, with a little bit more speed, though. A little bit more speed, a little bit more pressure, a little bit more a lot of things. But, I mean, track was sick today, though. Like, after that rain last night, it was absolutely hero dirt. And then it actually started to get pretty dry. Like, there’s a few corners I like had some uh had some slides in just cuz, you know, it went turned to powder again. So, um, yeah, not a sick day. All right. Well, you’ve you’ve lost the, uh, five Pete, but, um, a four Pete’s pretty epic. It was a good try. Yeah. Hopefully, uh, hopefully I have the opportunity to do that again, but yeah, I’m a little gutted to, to, you know, miss out on that, but, um, you know, that’s the way she goes. I don’t think many people have got four, so um, yeah, you’re still in the record books. Yeah. No, I Yeah, stoked. I mean, I was stoked with one and then I was stoked even more stoked with two, even more stoked with three and then, you know, over the moon with four. So, you know, five would have been I don’t even know what how to explain how crazy that would be and how sick. And, you know, I was one place away from that. So, I can’t be mad. And now a decent break. You probably in looking forward to getting home for a bit. Yeah, been a long stint. It’s been a Yeah, pretty pretty heavy one for the mental. I’ve just, you know, with all the all the extra pressure, you know, all the all the everything going on, you know, I’m I’m real stoked for the break and just going to go take it easy for the next, you know, few weeks and then be back racing for Crank Works. So, yeah. Oh, you’re going to race Crank Works? Yeah. I missed it the last two years due to injury. So, I still have never ridden the 1199 track. No way. You’ve never ridden it? Never ridden it. It looks pretty gnarly. No, I know. It looks It looks proper. So, stoked to stoked to finally get on that. and uh yeah, play some golf as well. Yeah. All right. Well, enjoy your break cuz you deserve it and it’s been a hell of a season so far for you. Keep up the good work, mate. Cheers, Wayne. Thank you. No, good stuff. All right, Locky. Um, first question. Did your did your front tire really miss the pole? It looked like your rear to me. I think that my front went straight over it. Yeah. And like as soon as that thought was in my head that like did I miss it? I was honestly unsure. Like I was going down that straight like do I what do you do? Do I keep going or do I stop? Yeah. And I just knew that I feel like I don’t want to be that guy. No. You know, so but I feel like that was one you maybe could have got away with. Yeah. But also I think as Yeah. As soon as that crossed my mind, I was like I got to go back. And I think if if I had have done well they and it was like a bit controversial, they would have gone. I don’t know if it would have been we we couldn’t really see it on the screen, but we didn’t watch on like a Yeah. I come back and I watched on the laptop and even like it was so hard to see so hard to see. And I think even the commentators were like was it was it like don’t know and I I think that um the UCI would go the wrong way just to be safe and to be honest itself should be. So yeah, but yeah, you probably could have got away with that one, but you don’t know. And anyway, the riding before that was insane. You ripped the BMS like perfectly. You did high to low and all sorts. No, it felt unreal to be honest. Like um best I’ve ridden them. I felt so ready in the gate. Um felt like it was going to be a good day to be honest. But no, it’s overall was like a good weekend of, you know, I qualified well and that’s what I’ve been struggling to do on a track that I do not get on with well. So I think I’m just I’m getting better overall. Yeah. Yeah, which I’m stoked with. And I don’t know, we just try again at the next one. You know, you looked like you and L were the best through the top corners. We didn’t get to see your split though because you didn’t get to that. But it looked really impressive what you were doing there. No, thank you. Yeah, I was I was coming around the corners like I just was thinking like I’m hooking. I’m [ __ ] hooking. Yeah. Um but yeah, even the jump out to cut inside. I jumped a little wide but it actually worked out so good. like I’m stoked with the riding and um felt I felt pretty good this morning. In a good place anyway. Yeah. No, thank you. Nice work. We’ll keep up the good work and uh enjoy the break. Thanks, man. Cheers, mate. Thank you. Can we do a quick interview? So, I can get through. Oh, we can keep walking slowly. Not too fast. All right. Back on top, Tony. Yeah, it feels good actually. Bit bittersweet with Grace’s crash. Yeah, but uh Here we go. The team enjoying the celebration. And you also continue rain as a first split split queen. Do I? Yeah, I think so. Ah, [ __ ] I think I didn’t feel I made some changes on the bike to feel more comfortable in the bottom. Yeah. And I knew I had to sacrifice some of the top, which I wasn’t willing to do cuz I was like, what if I just do a mediocre bottom again? Which I kind of did. So, I wasn’t sure if I’d get it again. But yeah, I saw a couple of bits where you maybe overbreed a little bit. Yeah. But for sure that’s just the story of my life at the minute I think. Yeah. Yeah. But then you still won the race so you can’t really I mean playing smart does pay off like we’ve seen today. Yeah. But my heart broke for Gracie. She’s so full of passion and energy at that age. It’s the only thing that matters. So Well, you you’ve been there. Yeah. That’s why like I got so emotional when she crossed the line and my my heart broke for her cuz it’s just like seeing all that emotion come let like come out. It’s so raw and it’s so it’s it’s in a way it’s nice to see cuz that’s why we do what we do. It means so much and she’s just going to learn so much from that and become way stronger and it might like it hurts so much now but she’s going to be flying so I’m excited to to see her in the second half of the season. Yeah, her run was pretty special to watch as well. Like it was good style. She was doing some and the good thing is is she managed to like she she was so far back on one and two and she is capable of elevating where she wasn’t as good whereas I didn’t today you know she did and I didn’t. So it’s really impressive to watch and yeah she’s going to keep me on my toes. Yeah. Well your run was sick to watch this the first half. You were just attacking everywhere. Yeah. And then I could tell that you my legs were on fire. I think I need to do some like iso holds in the offseason or something. Probably have to go go training with party mi. Well, I don’t know about that. He’s He’s a bit of a mad dog on the training. Yeah, he’s loose. E, just in every aspect of life. He just like does everything to the limit. Yeah, I think I’ve just got to do like the chair pose everywhere I go whenever I got a spare minute to hold hold up that position, the good riding posture. For sure. Cuz I want to be able to hold the pace I know how to ride the whole way down. So, yeah, that’s the next step. We got six weeks now. So, but you won this one. So, it’s a good day. It is a good day. Yeah, it is bittersweet for me cuz I like a fair race and I like to win when everyone’s at their best, but I feel like that’s being a bit picky and asking for too much of course. But then you also got to learn how to push the limit. Like so Gracie still learning. She’s young and and if you push the limit that much, it does bite you sometimes. Yeah, for sure. But it doesn’t take away anything from Yeah. her performance today. Yeah. Yeah. Like so impressive. Really incredible. And hats off to her. Yeah. Well, great job yourself and uh good to see you back on top. Thanks, Win. It’s been It’s been a bit of a road, I guess. I like that’s not a fin. Whoa. Like, cut the Yeah, cut cut. All right. Good job. Thank you. Nice work. All right, not not how you wanted to watch the race or be here at the race. Nah, not not ideal. Not ideal, but uh you you’re not too bad overall. Yeah, I mean just the knee. So, just going to get home, see how bad it is. Hopefully, it’s not too bad. Yeah. Um, but I got my bro and his partner here, so it’s been cool to hang out with them. Hang out with the family. Yeah. Sweet. And then Yeah, hopefully good for the rest of the season. Yeah, we just got to just got to see how it is and hope hopefully we swinging for the day. But um yeah, just got to Yeah. tough times. Got to tough it out. Yeah. All right. Well, fingers crossed it’s not too major. Yeah. Yeah. No, totally. Thank you. Cuz knees can go one of two ways. It can be not even that bad and then they can be really serious. I’m hoping I’m just being wuss and it’s all good. I’ve I’ve had MCL and PCL before that have been I’ve been able to ride really quickly after. Yeah. I mean, and ACL is not not good. Yeah. It’s not going to be the ACL. Yeah. If anything, it’s the inside. So, Ed had no ACL for about 2 or 3 years. Yeah. So, us Kiwis, we’re pretty strong. So, you’ll be all right. Yeah. Tough it out, eh? Yeah. You’re strong. Yeah. All right. Go enjoy going home as well. Yeah. It’ll be it’ll be so fun on the plane for [ __ ] two days. Hopefully they get you in business because of the um insurance. They better like get me a roll or something so I can let it normally they put you in business when you’re injured. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. If you’ve got good insurance. Yeah. Yeah. No, totally. All right. Well, I hoping for the business class tickets and enjoy New Zealand. Yeah. Thank you. Yes. All right, Loris. Uh pretty solid day here in Andor. Yeah, today was solid. Yeah, yesterday was not solid. No. No. What What was missing yesterday that you found today? Just commitment. everywhere. Um, and yeah, willing to give it everything. Yeah. Which for quality doesn’t sound right to me. Yeah. And I think that’s why all the old school guys struggle so much like Troy and like we struggle like you need to go super quick. It It’s like the race before the race. It’s actually a race now. Yeah. And here is so special that it’s so tight. I was like 2 seconds off and 20 second, you know, like I’m 2 back in third. Yeah. So it’s like it’s a bit of a weird one. Yeah, but yeah, happy to be back to back pam. Y um I wanted to achieve that coming into the season. So hopefully we can keep on that pace and yeah. All right. Solid solid ride and you really pulled some time in that third sector. What did you do there? Um I basically know I’m quite slow up top anyway. So I try to set up the bike comfy at the bottom. Yeah. Cuz I knew I would be tired. Yeah. So I was in the end not that tired and it was okay. Yeah. But Luick was faster. I was second down the last split. So still good. Still good. But yeah, you see like you need to optimize for you yourself and myself was like try to be not too tired at the bottom. But yeah, it paid off for third. Yeah, it’s cool. So it’s Yeah. Key is like playing to your strengths. Yeah. Kind of like either this or trying to do the opposite. But here I think uh being comfy on the bike is always a reward and Lat was the same like a bit softer for finals were helping a lot and yeah those thing are what the team is good at. It’s like we find the little details right before the the the race run and I think by the time we have more more races we’re going to be even better. So I’m happy. So you changed the bike just before the race run just softer like you know you expect it to be a bit more like going faster so you want like stronger springs and [ __ ] A lot of people try and go harder but Exactly. But then you I knew by the middle section I’ll be dead. So I just wanted something that helps me riding fast and try to send at the bottom and I was not in the right lines but it was still good. So, and then Lo got the win this time and last time you got the win here. So, it’s pretty good for both of you. Yeah, it’s really good. And uh I think we can all study the the case of Lo with like mental strength is absolutely insane. Yeah. Like cuz imagine you show up at the race, you crashed last year, put Super Brun everywhere and be like redemption, I’m going to smoke you guys, you know, like build the thing up and actually do it. Yeah. Is pretty badass. So yeah. Unreal. Yeah, he’s has to be mentally the strongest strongest. And yeah, he worked hard like all weekend we could see like he was pushing maybe harder than race other races and this morning it was loose, you know, like trying hard which is not not common for him. Not and then for his race it was like fast loose, not scary loose and it paid off. So yeah, I’m happy for him. And we saw some wild rides from Amari and Paladari. Yeah, Palazari. Impressive. Insane. I think that team is building up to be yeah really one of the best teams. Yeah, they do do a good job with their bikes, I think. Yeah, they focus whatever they have to make the bike feel good and it seems like they all have a similar vibe of riding. So, they just just work. Yeah. And yeah, it’s I won’t say I’m close, but I hear a lot from that team cuz we have some friends in it. And yeah, they they’re doing a good job with not a lot of money. And it’s cool to see that you can do it. And with the right people, you can do it without all the money. Yeah. And knowledge and yeah, good riders. So, it’s it’s really impressive. Anyway, great job. And uh yeah, another podium. So, well done. Thank you so much. Cheers, mate. Thank you. All right, T-Bo, sixth place. Uh, how was it to be fair? Uh, I’m stoked but at the same time a bit pissed because you know I push I give almost everything. I could have done not much better for me because the weekend started not really good. I was not that fast but in the end six is good for the overall is good for sure. It’s better to be on the box but I have still more race to to try to win. Yeah. And uh yeah great result for Simon and David had amazing speed. Yeah for sure for Simon is amazing. I think it’s his best result and he has a super strong season so he’s good and David for sure is fast every weeks this week especially even if he didn’t really like the track but he looks super fast and today I don’t know at the bottom I don’t know what happened but he crashed and that’s pretty sad because I think he could have won almost he would be close to winning so that’s amazing amazing but you know still have some work to do and I think it will pay off before the end of the season hopefully for him because he’s a nice guy and super fast yeah it’s good when you know that you can though And also we are a strong team. So that’s that’s a good point. Yeah. Yeah. The team has been doing really well for a little team. Yeah, for sure. Yeah. Know, look, we didn’t even have a pit. So that’s we will see. Hopefully it’s good for for the coming years. Yeah. And they do a lot of work on the bike. You do a lot of stuff with the bike. Yeah, for sure. For sure. We work a lot on the suspension and the cinematic and everything. So we try to have the the best bike with what we had. Yeah. And for the moment it works pretty well. And we we have a small break to keep improving. So that’s good. So, we have friendship next week. So, I want to keep You got to keep the sleeve. For sure. I want to keep it. All right. Well, good luck for the fight for the sleeve. Thank you very much. Cheers, mate. And good job. Thank you, Molly. Amazing ride and uh a hell of a moment right near the bottom. Yeah, I don’t know. Pretty. Yeah, I was just trying to hold on. I had a couple moments earlier as well. I was like, [ __ ] just got to make her make it down and yeah, see what happens. And in that section in the morning, you were really sending it there. So I was like, “This is where Molly’s fast.” And then we’re like, “Wow.” Yeah. I was Yeah. It was mixed emotion coming down. See, I was like 0.1 of Valley, but I’ll take that. This year have been way more like 28 seconds of Valley. So pretty fun. Really? Yeah. 28 seconds. Yeah. Poland. I was like, I might just quit. I might just go home. And now you’re back. You’re back. Yeah. Hopefully. And the the whole team’s going well. So it’s like is that is that been the key? Like everyone’s helping each other. I think this week we’re all really positive coming into the week. Like Oscar was saying like, “Yeah, I’m gonna qualify.” And like he did his first qualify like ever. And then both Lou and I made it into finals and Juan the man P1. So I don’t know. I don’t know what we’re doing, but we should keep doing it. And Ollie looked very worried in that manager area when you had that moment. I bet. Yeah. I can only imagine. Yeah. But great great ride and you must be really stoked to be back up on that podium. Yeah. It’s insane. Especially now with only three people podium. So this is the last one uh Mont last year. So it kind of ended the season where I was the fifth but ended the season on the podium and then four races without even qualifying and then four without qualifying. Now you’re on the podium. Now I’m on the podium. So never give up. Shows how quickly you can turn things around if you believe in yourself, I guess. Exactly. Yeah. So great job and uh keep up the good work. It was exciting. Thank you. Yeah. Nice work. So 5 minutes I was trying to sit down for the day win. Yeah. Yeah. Well, we don’t want you sitting down too much, mate. No, no. I’m just about to be lazy. It’s a long day standing up all day, isn’t it? It’s a very long day. Yeah. Yeah. Stressing as the riders are coming down the hill, eh? And then running up and down, pushing bikes up. Oh, yeah. You saw that. Yeah. Yeah. We were grafting today. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. But these guys were grafting loads more. It paid off though. It paid off. Yeah. Oh, we are absolutely blown away by the results and the effort and just the team. Everything has been incredible this week for us. Yeah. Yeah. and and uh Wford didn’t get the run he was chasing but uh to be that last man on that mountain it’s pretty special moment waner was following his hero his idol you know and I think I think Loick had beaten him before Waner even left the gate but massive respect to Loic he came over to me and straight after his run and basically said he hopes wins really yeah and I was like wow that’s that’s respect he’s classy yeah he is classy he really likes the setup we’ve got as a team he likes the work we’re doing and obviously he really likes Swaner and and everything he does for for the team, you know. Yeah. Well, that’s cool to see um a rider of such a stature to to say that to you. Yeah. Oh, it’s huge. Yeah. Yeah. He’s um Yeah, he’s he’s a he’s a really good man. He’s a very good man and he won the race. You know, I think win as well, didn’t he? You know, he he been floating around for a few weeks now and and I I guess he always questions whether he’s still got the speed and he would have been in the hurt box if he didn’t get it today. Yeah, I think today had to happen for him, didn’t he? But it looked like quite a like the top it looked like he was almost cruising and then he was up you know cutting all the corners tight. Yeah. Classic something else. Classic lowick. Classic French. Just stay out the holes. E. Yeah. It was unreal. It was unreal. Yeah. Yeah. But unfortunate for David A Palazari. What a run. I know. He was two point something up, wasn’t he? Yeah. It that was absolutely insane. Absolutely insane. Yeah. He’s he did very well. But yeah, we’re stoked for Millie though. We have to give Millie a shout out for third in the women’s. Like unreal. She’s come from like basically not qualifying. Yeah. And now she’s in. So yeah, it’s amazing. And now she’s packing down the pit. Which shows uh what a setup of a team you guys have. Everyone helps each other. That is exactly what it is. Yeah. And and Millie epitomizes that, I think. Like look at her. She’s like, “Yep, chuck the chuck the medal. Chuck the trophy over there. Roll the sides up. Doesn’t matter where I came today. I’m still helping.” She might be thinking we’re going to get wet in a minute. So, let’s get the hell out of here. Millie Millie is Yeah. Yeah. He He’s still analyzing what he did in his race. He’s sus now. But, uh, yeah, Millie is the real boss of the team. I think she No, it’s good, mate. Yeah. Appreciate all your support as well, especially for Wer is an incredible human. Well, it’s been just great to see his progress and then he to to be that last man is pretty special. Today was too soon for him. Now we the dust has settled. Today was too soon, but uh he’s going to get one. What was his What was his previous best qualifier? Previous best qualifier. Oh, you’re testing me now. The one in the one? Yeah. Last week. Yeah. Yeah. Nothing better than that. Yeah. So, that was like 20th to last going. Yeah. 20th to last and then you’re going first to last. I know. It’s a very quiet environment up there when you’ve not been to first to last ever again. Yeah. Exactly. before he he Wer admitted to me he said the pressure got to him too much you know he he spoke to his sport psychologist last night uh he did everything he can he has God on his side uh but today the pressure may be too much yeah I’ve been I’ve been that man before I was in 2010 in Champri I qualified fifth previous best qualifier like 30th I’m following Greg Manar I’m like what the hell is going on here you’re showing your age now mate yeah a little bit that’s that’s one of the reasons why I’m like I want to keep racing this year so I qualify for Champri and uh knock it on the head in Champ. No, don’t knock it on the head. Stay out there, mate. Do your 100 jobs that you do. Well, I’m close to 100 races now. So, yeah. Oh, really? I’m on 95. I mean, okay. Is that because you do a lot per year or you’re really old like me? Probably really old. Okay, fair. How old are you? 40. 40 now. I’m 38. There you go. Yeah, it’s a good age, mate. We’re catching up to you. You’re holding it well, my friend. Anyway, great job to the team and well done to you too, bro. Thanks very much. Cheers, guys. Thank you. Look what we’ve got here. what we found here at um Scott Factory downhill team. We’re doing the second episode of the food review and we got the Mexican bean chicken Caesar salad. Bit of a mix, but they’ve done well. They’ve done well. All right, we’re just wrapping up this lovely salad. And um the review for this one, I’m going to say they’re going going to go an eight and a half. Jay’s done an amazing job with this dish and it had a bit of everything. It was still quite filling, too, even though it was a salad. So, yeah. Well done. I enjoyed that. Well done, Jay. Thanks. Thanks for the effort. What’s going on with your I don’t really like olives, but I’ll eat one anyway. Oh, they’re not. They’re not bad olives, those ones, actually. Scott Fry Downhills, currently leading the food review. Hey, mate. You didn’t tell us yesterday in your interview that you had a bit of an issue with your hand. Yeah. No, just a couple weeks ago hurt it a little bit, but no, the adrenaline of a race run helped it a lot. So, yeah. And you just taped a um tire lever on there. Yeah, just a tire lever and um some zip ties. Zip tape. Bit of zip ties. So, yeah. Zip ties fixing everything. Yeah, that’s it. Did the job. So, yeah. How was that for you? Yeah, it was pretty good. I was just so stoked to be up there. Um the top felt sick and then couple bobbles, but I’m overall really happy. So, yeah. And 21st. Yeah, stoked. Yeah. almost in that top 20. It’s a good start for your first final. Yeah, for sure. Yeah. Nice work, mate. And doing it the hard way. And you also blew up your shock yesterday as well. Yeah, Q Q1 had a bit of a moment at the top and it blew up, but yeah, it was a bit loose from there down. It’s just not the rebound was going crazy, but yeah, got a spare one for Q2 and yeah, all good. All right, nice work, mate. Good job on your first finals. Thank you. Cheers. Thank you. Oh, yeah, boy. First top 10. Oh, first top 10. No way. I thought you had done one before. No. What was your previous best? 11th, I think. That was my best. Yeah, you beat me now. We on. We on. Well, you got to be happy to get top 10, mate. Oh, stoked day. I’m just happy to make it make it down. All good. And then like half halfway I was like, “Oh, I just need to make it down a full run in the finals.” Cuz the first two I, you know, cocked it. So, yeah. Now I’m happy. Talk mate. That’s epic. And uh you were one of the fastest through those rollers. It was visibly quicker. You’ve done a little bit of BMX in your time. Oh, maybe a little bit of that roto BMX track. Yeah, we got a new pump track. So, here we are. Pump track. And what’s what’s the plan for you? You doing hardline? Yeah, I’m I’m on my way to hardline with the boys. So, it should be a should be a mean week. We’ll see how it goes. And yeah, rip some fat jumps. E. Well, rolling off for top 10. Can’t be bad. Yeah, it’s on. Nice work, mate. Cheer, bro. Good job. Thank you. Cheers. All right, Asa. Um, you had one of the fastest times yesterday. Second fastest. Yeah. Would you have liked to race today? Yeah, I very much was. Would have. The dirt looks so good up there for all the like the top corners were just like hooking and see like the entire track really. They could go inside. Yeah, actually. Yeah, they could hold the lots. The tracks looked insane and they’re right about the weather. But yeah. Yeah, it was too bad. If if it was me deciding, which it’s not, I would have said put the top five women juniors and men juniors into the elite category for one day only. That That would have been insane, dude. That would have been so sick. Yeah, you would have liked that, would you? I would have loved that, dude. I would have Yeah. [ __ ] That would have been a dream. But maybe someday they’ll think about that. Hopefully hopefully that comes, you know, you’re not far off moving up to that category. So, it must be nice to know that you’re in the mix. Yeah, for sure. It’s good. Yeah. Yeah. And then and then Max is pushing you on. But that’s actually healthy to have such a rivalry. Yeah. Such help. Like I mean having the two fast times a day but then still trying to figure out where I lost.5 is second is like good. Just just keep building. So keep you pushing. Yeah, I love it. Anyway, great work this weekend and uh keep up the good work, mate. Thank you, man. Nice work. All right, the aggression was there straight out of the gate. You were pumping everything. Yeah, you know, the last few races I was always losing a lot of time in the first split, maybe starting a little bit too slow like an enduro stage. And uh yeah, today I felt I felt amazing and I just gave it all. didn’t make any mistakes and yeah, fourth. I’m super happy. Super happy. Well, it’s it’s great to see you in that top five. It was a hard start to the season, so it must have been good to turn that around. Yeah, it was, you know, relearning again the disciplines, relearning the tracks, and uh finding a setup also on the bike. You know, the bike is so crucial. And then we got to a good spot now, and I feel like I can actually ride like I can. So, uh now it feels good to to pull this one out. And uh let’s celebrate tonight. Yeah, watch out town cuz uh party muddy is going to be on the town and it only takes one or two drinks and things go crazy, don’t they Greek? They do. They’re a little bit loose with this goose. So, watch out. We’re ready. Watch out. Good luck for tonight Marty. Thank you. I’ll see you soon. Cheers. Cheers, mate. You’re coming tonight. I won’t be with you. I won’t be with you, mate. Can you can be with me then? No. No. What What place did you finish? 18. 18. 18. What What place did you finish World Champs last year? Uh 28. And yeah, 28. Oh, so you improved from world champs last year. It’s pretty good. Yeah, I think so. Yeah, it’s good. Yeah, we are progressing. And this morning you had like some of the best pace in the bottom section. Yeah, I listened to everybody like Yeah, it was they were really happy. I don’t know like my was so smooth. Yeah, thank you. Uh yesterday in Q1 I did it really good there in those splits and I had to work on the first splits at the beginning and did it good but the bottom the this time on the final wasn’t too good but it was not as clean as as in the last training. Yeah. Yeah. But really stuck on on everything and how was the run and everything. So yeah, really really good. And it’s always a good day if you’re in the top 20. Yeah, for sure. Two finals for me this year and it’s crazy to to finish in everything and under top 20. So really, really stoked. All right, nice work, mate. Thank you so much. See you win. Thank you. Bye-bye. All right, mate. How was that uh race for you? Yeah, not too bad. Definitely had my head bit more in the game. Yeah, came away 14th, which at the minute is pretty pretty hard, but uh yeah, a couple mistakes knocked me back maybe like a second, but it’s crazy how much the second means nowadays. Yeah. Yeah. So, uh, no, I’m definitely happy to build and be like on the right trajectory. And for quite a while there, you were leading the second sector. Yeah. Had a really good run up until uh until I got a little loose. Came in a little hot. I deaf gripped into a section and clipped my uh bar on a tree. Just ran wide a couple times. But all in all, that’s enough. Yeah, that’s enough, man. But yeah, all in all, I’m I’m pretty happy as uh getting back to it. You’re back in it. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And the teeth were clean. teeth were clean. Very clean. Yeah. All right. Good job, mate. Cheers, boys. Nice work. All right, Leo, team manager Rogue Racing. Unfortunate crash for David. Yeah, he was he was in second or at the time he was leading and he was in second looking at the splits now when he crashed. Yeah. Um to be honest, I was uh really really not incredible about that that this run. Yeah. Because uh when I saw the time, I say, “Okay, first split green.” Yeah. Interesting. Yeah. And when I saw under to second, I say, “Oh my gosh, incredible.” And the third split like that and I say, “Wow, maybe it could be the the run of the life.” You know, maybe I I almost touched the dream. Yeah. Uh unfortunately, he made a small mistake, touched the touch the the the pad and uh Yeah. You know, race are like that. Fortunately, he is uh he is okay. Yeah. And the important thing is that he had the pace. Yeah. He must to continue to believe in himself and maybe when we will close the run it will be a pretty good run you know. Yeah. Well that would have been a podium today. Yeah. Yeah. For sure. I’m pretty sure that if we not won the the race maybe second at least third but I will pretty sure about first and second place. Yeah. But uh yeah your face you couldn’t believe when it came up 2.1 seconds. Yeah. Absolutely. I say on Loris Vier too. Yeah. Yeah. A little bit. I think to be honest maybe a little bit too much fast. I say, “Hey bro, a little bit slower. It’s enough. It’s enough. Don’t worry. Don’t worry.” Yeah. I I would like to put a radio inside the helmet maybe for the next phrase and I have to to talk with him. Take it easy. Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. Exactly. Yeah. Amazing performance from the team once again. Anyway, I’m super stoked about Tibo’s result six and uh Simon, he made the best result in his career. Yeah. And I’m so pretty happy and overall I I couldn’t see that it’s a bad day, you know. Pretty cool. Well, and and David had the speed to potentially win. So, unreal day for the team. Yeah, exactly. This is the most important thing for David. He must be strong in his mind and continue to believe in himself and I’m pretty sure I do believe in him. Yeah. Yeah. And uh yeah, you guys have been working hard on your bikes. You’ve got a lot of stuff going on. Yeah, exactly. We work uh really hard and especially in this race because the logistic was not the best because we went on the in the XT paddock 3 km off of the bottom of the the race and every morning we will woke up at 5:00 a.m. to pick up everything go to take the best place and it’s really hard for us this year but we keep working. We believe in oursel and try to do the best as possible to maybe next year we will be a more serious team. Well, it’s paying off for the riders so far. some great results. So, well done. Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. Yeah. Nice work, mate. Thank you very much, guys. Thank you. All right, Simon. Uh, finishing up in 12, your best career career best result. Yeah, for final. Yeah, it’s the best result really. So, yeah. I’ve I’ve seen you in so many final that I thought it would be more more. Yeah. Yeah. Because I’ve seen you so many finals, but I think maybe this year you’re just doing every final. Yeah, I did every final for the moment. Uh, which is good. Yeah. Six out of six. So pretty stocked. Yeah. Uh but no 38 time yesterday was 40. So still improved. So I’m just happy with that. Yeah. Of course like top 10 is a is also a goal but uh it’s coming. It’s coming. Yeah. You keep improving. So you must be pretty happy. Yeah. Yeah. The the improvement is crazy. So just go this way and we will see at the end of the season. And and winning the Q2 yesterday is also really good. Yeah. This was insane. Yeah. Because it’s the first time next to my name it’s P1. So, so even if it’s Q2, it’s Q2 is maybe harder to win sometimes as well. I don’t know if it’s harder, but it’s like the Yeah, the the everyone push really hard. So, everyone go 100% of of the capacity. So, yeah, it’s not Q1, but it’s uh it’s still special. Yeah. Almost almost. Yeah. Well, great great job, mate. And uh keep up the good work. Yeah. Thanks. Thanks a lot. Thank you. Getting the fans stoked valley. You still got the green jersey. Yeah. But you weren’t happy with that one. Uh I’ve been super ill this weekend. So actually I’m just happy it’s over to to finish this one off. Yeah. Yeah. Well, you still got the green jersey. It’s not too bad then. Yeah. I mean it’s it’s unfortunate that Gracie had a crash cuz she would have absolutely smoked us. Yeah. But uh Yeah. Second place again. So consistent, I guess. And if you’re second when you’re sick, it’s not too bad. Yeah. Yeah. Cuz it’s pretty hard at the altitude when you’re sick. Well, I guess so. I mean, I grew up on the mountain, so I don’t think it makes a big difference, but um no, it’s uh it would have been nice to win here again or at least like start winning again, but uh yeah, I mean, I guess the break is going to be good for me and then hopefully be strong for world champs. That that uh it’ll be good to take a bit of fire into the break, keep your training. Definitely. I mean, I’m going to take a few weeks off and not touch the downhill bike and do something else and enjoy some summer time with my friends and then get back into it. Yeah. What do you do if you don’t touch your down bike? Uh, we actually go bike packing in Norway and sleeping sleep in the tent and stuff like that. Yeah. That’s going to be cool. Going to be a good trip. How far are you going? What’s the plan? Um, I think it’s like 5,000 elevation meters only. Like we do 5 days and then like 500 km. So, Oh, nice. It’s going to be 100k a day sort of thing. Yeah, exactly. That’s a good good distance. Not too long. Eat cinnamon rolls. Yeah. Sweet. All right. Well, enjoy your bike packing trip and have a good break and yeah, well done keeping this jersey. Thank you so much. Nice work. Cheers. All right. Another Austrian that still has the green jersey. Rosa, um, would you have liked to race today? Uh, yeah, definitely. I was on track and watched the elites and then looks so good like perfect conditions. So, but I think I guess we just have to take it like this. Well, it’s raining now, so yeah, so it’s probably the weather’s coming. But um but I think they should have just thrown in the top five junior men and women into the elites just for this one because of the weather. Would have been exciting. No, would have been exciting. Yeah. Would you have liked that? Yeah. To go into elites just for the weekend. Yeah. For one weekend should be pretty cool. Yeah. But they were so fast today. Yeah. like crazy and tiny and good to see. Yeah. Anyway, great job keeping this jersey and it’s a little bit rough. We couldn’t have the race, but nice work anyway. Thank you. Nice work. All right, Altha taking the win in the race that didn’t exist. Yep, I guess. Yeah, pretty much. Uh kind of knew yesterday cuz we had a feeling about the weather, but at the same time, qualifying is qualifying. Race is race. You always race different on race day, but in the end it was racing. Would you have liked to have lined up against the elite say that have let you this weekend? Absolutely. I think it’s always good to have hard competition. Keeps it only makes you better in the end. And this course today looked insane. I was so jealous. Yeah. They had the best conditions, didn’t they? Yeah. I felt kind of a bit of a poser with wearing my kit with no knee pads or anything like I just put it on for photos. Full kit. Yeah. But that’s all it is. Yeah. Well, at least you won yesterday. So that’s that’s what was the race anyway. Yep. I guess in the mindset Yeah. All right. Qualifying sometimes is going to count, so make it worth it. Anyway, good job and keep up the good work. Thank you very much. Nice work. All right, Miriam, how how’s your recovery going? Yeah, it’s going really good. I’m keep improving. So, I’m starting grinding enduro. So, no downhill yet, but you know, yeah, it’s not a bone. So, I didn’t want to take any risk with head injuries. So, yeah, happy with the progress. Older and wiser. Yeah, definitely. the the young you wouldn’t have made such a decision, but but now you’ve got a little bit of experience up your sleeve. You know how to play it. Yeah, definitely. Long hair long life ahead. So, yeah, I want to play it smart. Yeah. And uh we’ve got a nice long break now, so you can come back strong eventually. Yeah, definitely. Yeah. And it was good to be here with the gym. Disappointed with Amori today. Like Loris got served, which is super cool, but Amori was on fire. Yeah. Good pace and then he went off the track. So, yeah. It’s 100 p.m. Yeah. And it’s Caroline’s birthday, so the party should be long. Oh, big party. All right. Well, enjoy the party. Thank you. Yes, the rain’s coming. Uh they actually just as predicted. So, yeah, the the schedule change did work and uh we had no rain affected race, so that’s good. And it was a hell of a race. Thanks Andura for putting it on. Shout out to David A Palazari for one of their most exciting runs. Unfortunately, it just fell apart in the last corner, but yeah, now we’re off to Leger next, which is quite a while away. Not sure if I’ll make it to Hardline or not. We’ll see. But over and out from Win TV. Let’s go. [Music] [Applause] [Music]
