Best Downhill Runs from Lourdes | UCI DH World Cup 2022

Rewatch the full show right here:
win.gs/UCILourdes22
Well, we couldn’t have asked for a better way to kick off the ’22 Downhill MTB season. The holy soils of Lourdes, France delivered spectacular racing, roaring french crowds, unpredictable results and insane tension from start to finish.
In the women’s it was Swiss national Champion Camille Balanche, who held it together and managed to finish first, just 0.6 seconds in front of Myriam Nicole and ‪@TahneeSeagrave57‬.
In the Men Elite ‪@finniles9204‬seemed to be flying all weekend long, yet it was the French man Amaury Pierron who laid down one hell of a run and finished 0.8 seconds ahead of Finn. ‪@LoicBRUNI29‬ went gas to flat, but didn’t manage to cope with the speed of Pierron in the bottom section of the track and finished in 3rd.

I always look forward to hearing Rob when a rider "goes green" on one of the splits.

[@PlaySA]

I missed the other guy with the weird voice though, the commentating wasn't quite what it usually is.

[@RedBullBike]

always a treat for the 👂😅

[@bauke-LV426]

yes well, Rob's bit a bit too much for me. He could dial it down a notch to, let's say, Crofty-level. He's triggering some primary instinct to protect my loved ones at all cost every time he's going crazy :) But apparently I'm in the minority here hahah

[@wwinnar2831]

@@bauke-LV426 1000%. way too much after hearing it time and time again.

[@mylesmackey2430]

I just look forward to hearing Rob

[@hannes6114]

Can't imagine these World Cups without that commentator.

[@speedpilot]

might happen next year. nevertheless imagine this sport without redbull making it big. Next year this sport will slowly get less and less fans because it will not be free to watch

[@hannes6114]

@@speedpilot that's really sad. But I actually can imagine these world cups without him, still a great commentator. I watched the whole thing from lourdes yesterday with different commentators.

[@speedpilot]

@@hannes6114 yeah I see your point. But I am super worried how this sport will develope with a paywall. I mean I see it at supercross. I am a huge beginner and I really have trouble to see the races, because it is just not popular here. I think they would gain way more fans way quicker if you wouldn't have to pay 130€ per season to watch it. And I am really worried about that happening for the WC. Nevertheless I am really worried about the price as well, because I can't afford to watch supercross for example

[@hannes6114]

@@speedpilot so we're on the exact same boat. I just added that my statement wasn't true :)

Finally downhill again! Just love Rob's excitement every time!

[@RedBullBike]

good to be back 💪

[@JohnDoe-yq9ml]

He’s annoying af. The fake excitement is cringe and not needed. The sports much better with out him. The smallest little thing happens and he screams about it. Dude would have a stroke if he watched motorcross. This is nothing in comparison.

Downhill riding getting crazy! Wish Netflix can document this kinda stuff there training there hometown racing! Few years it will be crazy battle when goldstone will be in the top!

[@GaedeRafael]

Netflix just want to promote the liberal agenda, with its "inclusive" documentaries...

[@NattyDread011]

So awesome to see woman's runs get into tenths of each other. Last season nail biting finale wasn't a fluke. This sport is getting crazy tight.

[@Zack-]

Over 18 seconds across the board 1st from 10th place, and the men's category was just over 4 seconds from 1st to 10th place. Yeah redbull sports is getting tight alright 😲😲😲😲😲😲

[@RedBullBike]

it just delivers again and again 💪

[@evohori]

I enjoyed watching the ladies compete as well. I hope they keep this beautiful sport away from USA. Before some guy transmuter named Bruce decides he qualifies to compete with women.😳

[@shade_33]

Myriam Nicole is an absolute weapon, that recovery was solid

[@chriswould]

Rob's commentating is the best.

[@anarcowhatever]

After 12 years away from the sport, it's shocking how high the level is these days. Absolutely insane. Pierron, Daprela,, Iles, Vergier, Wilson... However, all my love goes to Greg Minaar, who is still ripping it after two decades. And Rob Warner? Best speaker/comentator ever on any sport.

[@ketutbiking5709]

Peron...yeaaahhhhh 💪💪💪💪💪

[@danharvey3096]

Have to say i was gunning for Loic Bruni, mostly cos i dont know many of the other riders having just got back into MTB after a 10 year hiatus.. But also cos he runs Magura MT7s & i run Magura MT5s (Amazing brakes for the price!) .. So it's cool he got 3rd.. Was stoked to see how hard the women are riding too.. But all in all that riding was phenomenal.. With mtb getting bigger & more parks expanding hopefully we'll get some more kiwi riders competing in the UCI..

[@GaedeRafael]

has he been away from mtb?

[@maclucas5659]

Fins looks on pace to win a world cup this year.

[@jyedavis8379]

[@fillfreakin2245]

Nice to see some Canadians podium. The Juniors, which for some reason don't get much coverage, points to the French domination getting a bit more tenuous in the future.

[@dank3823]

Great stuff. Those 27.5 rear tires were having problems

[@mountain.wizard]

The race winner and every rider on the podium was on a mullet - 29 front -27.5 rear.

[@alexdoner3641]

And are the setups that these guys are riding are they allowed to have dropper post it seems like the dropper would come into play Super well in this

[@gustatrillo-paxosGTP]

So amazin runs all of you proud! numbers no.1 girl is 40 sec (3:19) slower than no.1 boy (2:50), boys bikes are bigger 16' vs 18'? that makes boys faster with 20% more muscle, this equates to 20% time difference, grand conclusion we are all equal!

[@philippjansen8545]

Insanity! Btw, are they wearing elbow protection?

[@Max-gs8nu]

No they do not. I think most of them only Use back and knee protection

[@RedBullBike]

yes they do!

[@Nifava]

32 seconds between the women and the men's champion. Not bad.

[@jamesbailey9386]

Just would not be the same without Rob announcing !

[@hannes6114]

Wait when are they riding? They have already??

[@dhrracer]

Will we ever see at least 75% of each run covered? At least for the top 10. The lack of coverage of the runs even leaves Rob questioning what happened. Perhaps there is a way just to broadcast the riders camera view. As of now do we even get 30%?

[@clintellis1102]

yesss Finnnnn

Wow and wow 4 Brits in the top 10 I think the UK and France Are going head to head to see how many rider’s each country can get on result list and when did Vidal swap football boots for clips Lol And big respect to Laurie Greenland who almost beat two world champions Danny and Reese

[@FreediveRN]

are they using clip-in pedals?
