agreed. plus, its STW, so I'd hope for a proper article, maybe with some interviews*, rather than trying to merely turn the results table into a paragraph and calling it a day.

*most peeople are probably spending today and tomorrow driving home, so give it some time.

That was an exciting watch, reminded me of a couple of last years races when someone in the top 20 would sit in the hot seat with the time not being beaten till you got to the top 5 and then everyone of them would beat the previous time!

Bummer for Loris to lose it in such a way, seems he knew when he finished he' blown it.

So was Bruni locking both his shock and fork out? Rear lock out hidden by the Bruni Box actuated by the cable fed from the left grip position then a fork lock out done via the fork and seen on the broadcast?

Saw on IG Cathro was giving or lending parts to Privateers and supporting them out of his pit which is awesome IMO

We’ve had some really close racing this year, really enjoyed it and to top it off a Matt Walker is world champ and theres still nothing on the front page celebrating this…

STW isn't exactly the go to site for the latest race coverage

Matt is Elite World Cup Champ - Reece Wilson is Elite World Champ.

I thought Josh E looks a bit relieved when Matt W came down! While a win would be amazing, maybe not in those circumstances - no-one wants to be that guy.

Overall for Matt walker, that’s pretty exclusive company for a UK rider. Only Peaty, Atherton and Bryceland have managed haven’t they?

And I hope people don't belittle it as only being based on four races, because some of the world's best were clearly struggling with the conditions and the double header format - while Matt was thriving and riding incredibly consistently.

theres still nothing on the front page celebrating this…

There's a slightly cringey article about why MTBers shoudl vote though, so it's not all bad.
