    Ben Cathro does more to boost UCI DH than UCI will ever do on their own ...

      God I miss Red Bull and I thought I would never say that. UCI ruining all bike racing for the foreseeable future. Let's go.

      I disagree. Thought the commentary this weekend was very good. Also please explain why the UCI and discovery would want to destroy downhill when they are the ones that have it for the next 6 years or so

    • @-TheRealChris
      @-TheRealChris Před 8 měsíci +3

      @@henrydavis3373 The UCI have been there the whole time, the problem is Chris Ball/Discovery/ESO, and no one is suggesting they WANT to destroy downhill, I'm sure they don't, they want to make money off it, it's just that they ARE destroying downhill with all their stupid changes and refusing to hire Warner.
      At this point it almost looks like an intentional program to cut privateers out completely and cut the number of starters in general down significantly for next year and going forward, which would certainly suit them by making it smaller, cheaper and easier to control from a TV broadcast point of view.
      But then again maybe they are just plain old incompetent, either way it blows.
      If you do actually prefer it and are not just trolling your in a very very small minority of people who do.

      @@-TheRealChris Its not a matter of preference its a matter of enjoyment. I enjoyed RedbullTV and I enjoy this as well. If you really think warner is the key to a successful broadcast then that tells me that Warner was the only thing holding the redbull broadcast together. Cedric and Ric get better every race and clearly put in effort to get better. Having aaron and myriam come in was great for technical insight into rider mentality etc. No they do not have 20 years experience commentating so its going to take them a little bit to get it perfect. At the end of the day if we really want downhill to grow we should be focused on exploring changes and things in a positive manner rather than a negative one. Just saying "Warner was the best, this sucks now" or things similar does nothing to help the sport grow.

    What an excellent analysis! It shows how much the smallest changes in line can affect what comes next. I think about this a lot when I'm riding. There's speed to be had with every nailed line, no matter how small. They all add up. Great video, thanks!
