Dirt Fantasy DH league

I blame Rudiah. The stupid kid got me a whole 4 points in two races lol

 

Juniors didn't get points this race. My man Loic Bruni got 0 points for his impressive performance. Richie Rude and Connor Fearon would've got some decent points too.

dirt might just fix it, so the current rankings in the league might just change.

 

Yep, they weren't on the elite mens start sheets so if you picked them for this race then it's your fault.

It's was also clearly stated here that juniors don't get points for Worlds.

Last race for the world cup this weekend and Podium Poachers have a 400+ point lead in the standings! Course looks good, what happened to gwin during qualifying though? I saw he had a dnf...

I've been lazy and tried to switch out Tracy Hannah early this morning, but the deadline had already passed.
woe is me.

 

Gwin had a crash in practice and his hand was still sore, so he just rolled through the gate to "qualify", as he was protected.

Brosnan is out for an injured shoulder (dislocated, I think), from his crash on his Leogang World Champ race run.

Ropelato is not racing.

Pugin is out as well, for an injured right arm/wrist/hand or something.

Minnaar held himself back in qualifiers. I expect to see him on the podium.

I still hope Sam Hill pulls outs something amazing. Gee needs a win too; he's been close far too many times. Last chance for lots of riders. I'll be up Saturday morning watching and I hope they cover my fav, Loic Bruni. Live stream starts at 5 AM PDT.

 

Damn, Steve Smith seriously looked super fast and smooth. Unbelievable seeing him go that much faster than the others, especially when the track looked tough, seeing the others, except George Brannigan, having a bit more trouble or riding it a bit more carefully.

Incredible season for Rachel Atherton.

Hmph, didn't even need to wake up early, since the replay was available immediately after the livecast.
