God is his drug.

Gwin could have a TUE (therapeutic use exemption) for a drug like salbutamol. Just like old mate Chris Froome, busted at the tour of spain for having twice the allowed level of the drug in his system.
*Cough*playingthesystem*cough*
Froome hasnt received any ban yet, it seems to be a grey area re drug rules, and the UCI is no doubt pooing its pants given that froome has won multiple tours de france and the vuelta, all most likely with his salbutamol TUE.
If you believe there is no drug use in mountain biking, then i believe that you are mistaken. Unfortunately, most if not all sports have drug cheats.

I reckon it's time Red Bull fucked Claudio off. Lets face it, he's made some stupidly obnoxious and completely irrelevant dickhead comments over the years and he is such a droning commentator. If his comments are implying that Gwin is using a chemist then he would most likely be the most sour c#@t out there, the guy is just better than everyone right now and this washed up jack arse thinks he can either crack a bad joke like that or try to be the hero claiming he knows something no one else does.
Fuck Claudio, time to shut up and get off my broadcast you wanker.

I don't remember hearing anything that even vaguely implied anything like that.

Nor I. Clickbait.

Just curious, why is a team manager and business owner (Claudio) doing DH commentary?
I know he's an ex-dh racer, but surely they can find someone who doesnt have a link to a current team???

Cheap enough I guess, his costs are already covered.
Between him a Rob & Rik they do a pretty good job.
What’s the girl at the top doing though. She manages to make any conversation feel awkward

There does appear to be a section of the mtb community that has it in for Gwin.
Rob asks "How does Gwin do it?"
Claudio says "you better not ask me that, otherwise I'll get in trouble"
near the end of the commentary. About 1hr 36mins on the replay.

I'm pretty sure that was a reference to him being asked about how Rachael Atherton "does it" and the resultant shit storm that ensued after that.
@moorey This is Fake News mate!
He's is totally not implying Gwin is on the 'roids. I won't edit my earlier post, I've always thought the guy is a bit of a tool but nah, he ain't suggesting shit other than a throwback to the Atherton comment.

Gwin done well because he knows how to make a rough track ride smooth, possibly the moto background helps a little.

Most of them ride moto quite a bit. Bulldog competes in hard Enduro events and myriam rides Enduro style trails in France with her brothers
My opinion is Gwin’s mainly immensely talented plus has an extreme work ethic.

To be fair, it's not like his team is getting any results. At all.

Not for lack of gratuitous Scott product placement...
