After another dose of Yokohama drama saw World Champ Matt Hauser back to winning ways, the 2026 World Triathlon Championship Series hit Alghero, with Vasco VilaΓ§a reurning to the start line looking to back up his opening-season win in Samarkand and all eyes on how hard the likes of Hauser and Henry Graf might need to push to keep uber runners like Alex Yee and David Cantero at bay…

  1. Ding dong female commentator, how can you say: "..You kidding me…" its reality of racing and when host cities do not clean their respective streets knowing there will be such an event!!!

  2. The pronlem which I see: in triatlhon the swim segment is too short relative to the bike and run, so even an exceptional swimmer has less opportunity to create a decisive advantage than an exceptional runner or cyclist. On top of that, cycling and running are both primarily leg-dominant disciplines, while distance swimming relies much more on the upper body, core, technique, and efficiency, with the legs often playing more of a stabilizing role. As a result, triathlon effectively favors athletes with a strong lower-body aerobic engine β€” runners and cyclists β€” more than pure swimmers, even though it is formally presented as three equal disciplines. A more equitable format would likely need a much longer swim, perhaps around 3–5 km for an Olympic-style race, or a redesign based on segment time, performance spread, and muscle-group specificity rather than historical convention.

  3. Hidalgo in Yokohama: pulls the break around for the first half with 500watts on the front. Does the same thing here but for the second half of the bike. So many people have him to thank for sacrificing his run legs for THEM… he deserves a win. Also, thank you for new exciting commentary!! Trevor and whatever rotating female he had with him on the race call was like listening to paint dry. All he could say was, "______ is asking a question" Like dude, ok. Got any other lines?? They were like the movie Mrs. Doubtfire, before Mrs. Doubtfire took over the show and the show was DEAD until Robin Williams took over. The new Aussies are 5 times better. As in, they have a pulse. For years no one subscribed. This is a REAL chance to make it watchable. Will McCloy IS Mrs. Doubtfire bringing life to the mic. Best race call in triathlon! Belinda is a great match with him too. Lighthearted, fun, knowledgeable, and ANIMATED together…. finally! Thanks for the great changes.

  4. What is the rest of the world doing with their run training that USA men and women haven't figured out?! We know how to swim and bike but everyone fades on the run.
