Gotta be a medal for Jones.

He is a pinner, as fast as anyone if he stays on the bike.

I don;t want to curse anyone, but I'm surprised how few of them are crashing.

It tells you everything about who congratulates you on a win, everyone was massively happy for Bruni, Cathy was even in there and the Masters boys. Most popular win?

Brilliant result! Gwin's going to arrive in a minute and mow down all these spectators though 😆 Claudio's bang on, it's the right winner. Mint

Josh Greg & Loic honestly I love the sport I love, the mates in it make it all that it is, Imagine any other sport that the loser will be partying with the winners.

That was properly great.

Wonder what caused Atherton to hit the ground so hard?

Think claudio called that one right, looked like a pedal dig- I thought he'd trapped the wheel on something but in the replay his weight went forward before the bike stopped.

Looks like they have local kids instead of podium girls as well, good on them.

but a shame we won't get a ratboy rendition of the national anthem.

what a win for Bruni, first win and it's the World Champs!! Hopefully next year we'll see a bit more of that. Gee and Aarron looked like they had pretty hard crashes (both took a while to get going again)

most popular world champ? 😀

Will Bruni be the shortest when they are all on the podium?

Loic was shorter than Greg on the podiums ! Bryceland semeed to be enjoying the Marseilles too and we sung along too. Chapeau for RedBull staying live for the ceremonies

What a great race weekend from World champs, GB did really well as a whole, even if there was a few riders "missing" in some cats.
Evie Richards Silver in junior XC
The Frog, Grant Ferguson Bronze in U23 XC
Laurie Greenland wins [b]Gold[/b] in Junior DH
Rachel Atherton [b]Gold[/b] woman's DH
Manon Carpenter Silver woman's DH
+ Tahnee in 5th
Josh Ratboy, in Bronze Mens DH
& Michael Jones in 4th!

Great riding from the Brits.

Anyone notice Peaty come in and feed Bruni "Peaty" whisky? 🙂

yup.. i noticed that...

and Bruni tried to say to Peaty that he was like the opposite of him..!

ie, Bruni couldn't win a world cup and was second loads like Peaty couldn't win the world champs and was second for all those years..

Ruddy chuffed for Bruni too.. he really deserved that!

and such a popular win right across the paddock it seems.. everybody was happy for him! 😀

In the end I'm really glad Bruni won but let's hope he doesn't go the same way as Danny Hart.
