Great run to win by Gwin!
Tracey Hannah did a champion job hanging on for third with a flat rear tyre.

good reason to only race wearing kit with black shorts or pants.

Yeah, that was amazing! She was pushing hard all the way to the finish line.

Yep. I'm pretty sure the brown slop back wasn't just MSA mud.

+1. Some of the slabby rock sections would also have been scary in the wet. They seem tough enough in the dry.

Another excellent YT Mob video - God they release them fast!

That's going to make for a very exciting final round. I can't wait!
Dunno if anyone else heard it but Minaar got disqualified for breaching the tape and not rejoining in the right spot. Imagine if he had put a good time in and had plaed top twenty only to be booted! The whole season point score could hinge on that one DNF for him.
The last round is going to be amazing!!!

I thought you had to go around a pole for that kind of DQ.

I heard rumours of the DQ Sunday morning, but blocked my ears noy wanting to know results. Heard nothing since :noidea:

"Greg Minnaar had a disaster of a day, crashing and apparently getting disqualified for reentering the track in the same spot. He claims he hiked back up and may try to protest the decision. With the points race super tight at the front right now, even the minuscule eight points he lost might come in handy at the final round in Val di Sole.

Muddy and Frew in reserve. Not sure how Newell was picked over Mudd. I've seen Sam copping flac for his selection, but he's entitled to the spot, regardless of his EWS focus. He'll finish top 15, quote me on that...:behindsofa:

Totes. As much as it sucks for Muddy, and would love to see him at Cairns, Sam will kill it.
