POV | Amaury Pierron's Flat Out Run in Fort William

It was another peerless Amaury Pierron performance in the men's race as the Frenchman took his third consecutive win on the Fort William track following his victories in 2018 and 2019 in Scotland. Pierron again showed his knack of being a race-day-player with a pin-point accurate run that saw him make a mockery of deteriorating course conditions for the last ten riders down the hill. He finished just +0.469s ahead of his Commencal team-mate Thibaut Dapréla, who had started outside of the top 10, and had been sitting pretty in the hotseat for some time.

I think people underestimate just how insanely difficult this is to do! Mad respect!

[@robanzzz5124]

especially on fort william. I've ridden it and it's one of those tracks that isn't difficult to ride normally BUT,, at this level is INSANELY difficult to ride.

[@nl3712]

Especially if you add wet and wind to extremely high speed

[@nyashadj4347]

@@nl3712 fort rides best in the wet if it was bone dry there be no grip in fort

[@CalQaida]

I went for a ride in the local woods right before this event in similarly sloppy conditions and the roots/rocks are so slippery and unforgiving if you put your wheel wrong. I’m only doing half the speed these riders are doing too. Amaury’s run looked scary fast even with the GoPro effect.

[@starptgr]

yeah. the speed, the commitment, the track difficulty. Top notch athletes.

[@Motohead_Matt]

The latter half of that run going through all that muddy slick high-speed sections was mind blowing. Such precision.

[@nickhargreaves681]

Absolutely pinned it

[@Ganiscol]

Two years out with injury made Amaury 'Animal' Pierron angry - and now he takes it out on World Cup tracks! 2 down, 6 to go. 😮

[@byza101]

🙏🏻

[@WeeSmokey]

🤯mind blowing

[@mrruaridhblack]

Mental how close together the first 3 times were! In those conditions and that long a track and less than a second between top 3 is mental!

[@trentvlak]

The time gaps in the first section were pretty big though. Some guys were seconds faster than him.

[@Tahydrahel]

Don´t forget the Junior-class. First two were only a second slower then Amaury.

[@mrruaridhblack]

@@Tahydrahel that and the gap was only 0.038 between top 2 in junior men

[@russellparker4568]

His ability to read the track miles in front of him is staggering, super precise. He makes it hard to understand how it’s possible to ride so fast. What a rider 👏

[@CameronKinvig]

Some say he was going so fast that he started ageing slower than us

[@goodstone]

🤣😂

[@ryancalvin1]

That's relatively funny.

[@Tommy-bu7rf]

No no, hes got a point

[@falk.r.h8963]

So aggressive yet so smooth. Pierron and daprela are both unstoppable when they don't crash. Also cool that the lense stayed clear the whole time

[@MTB831]

The stamina and strength needed to finish this whole course IS INSANE.. and at that pace!

[@kevinjohnthomson]

Incredible! He’s so in control of his breathing while going completely flat out.

[@ElliotsMTB]

There isn’t a chance I would’ve made it to the bottom with double the time. Insane run 🤘🔥

[@the.redwood.runner7608]

Same bro

[@osric2847]

I rode this in the summer of 2022 and it took me 6 minutes to get to the road gap... literally twice the pace. Until I rode this track I was like "huh wow, that's fast!" But now it's absolutely insane to me the way these guys carry such speed over such terrain. This pov doesn't do justice how chunky this track really is. Insane

[@InstaKane]

The speed gods are fulfilled after watching this 🔥

[@hadoukennumber13]

Especially with Loic out injured this lad is looking like the overall champ already! Mind-blowing speed.

[@dropclutch1]

If he can stay healthy. He puts it all out there every race, the man seemingly has no fear.

[@Rafalce]

It feels light speed travel, this guy is an animal!

[@tekjim]

This is actually insane.... such intensity for almost 5 minutes straight

[@Iggysport1]

Absolutely incredible run. Going that fast down that track blows my mind. Insane!

[@BurnsRubber]

This is as close to perfection as a perfect run can get. Perfect line choice. Perfectly executed. Never out of control. Expended pedal energy at the most effective moments.

[@Brian-zx5sr]

Holy sweet mother of creation what did I just watch. That's the fastest run I think I've ever seen. Unbelievable.

[@jimclaytor9834]

Unbeliveble how he did this run, awesome

[@dit4963]

Insane! On the motorway section he was even riding with his fingers off the brake levers. Just in case there was any temptation 😅

[@enterrowley]

Man this track is GNARLY! And these guys have got balls of steel! Big massive ones at that. Damn what a run

[@markyp1965]

Was stood near the Visit Scotland arch for Elite Men Finals, and the atmosphere was incredible. Conditions were horrible, but these racers were absolutely hauling. Insane how good they are.

Magnifique compliment de DAPRELA: « enfoiré ».

As insanely fast as that appears, it was actually even faster as chest mount camera not allowed, so this is from a helmet cam which "slows things down". Wicked display of skill!

Most people don't realize that a momentary lapse of concentration can mean several seconds lost. Everyone in the top 10-20 are pinning it top to bottom. For a rider to consistently make the top step of the podium, it means he's not only perfectly consistent, but a pushing a pace that other top level pros can't sustain.

[@mikerohlich160]

Absolutely Bike Handling and Control , extremely difficult and very hard 👉🏻 much Respect

[@dennisossianderrmplmtcst2053]

[@infidel900rr]

The track, conditions, and speed are staggering - looks like hell!

[@HelicopterDr]

Insane the amount of speed he carried throughout the whole run with the track conditions. Not many know the level of skill it takes to keep that amount of speed in slick rock and switch backs that are nothing but mud.

[@RickyDownhillRDH]

Slick and muddy course doesn't even affect this guy one bit. Amazing!!

[@drewe9514]

Ninja skills, what a true artist on the bike!

[@CastleKnight7]

That looks absolutely exhausting! The concentration, strength and stamina required to keep that level of speed is phenomenal. Woah.

[@brodyvanunen]

I think the craziest thing about World Cup is comparing the top two junior times to the men’s… Jordan and Jackson are on another level!

[@simonm1447]

For a guy like me riding a simpler hardtail through forests after work and at the weekend this ride is insane, the speed alone is insane even if it would be dry but it's wet and slippery instead. I guess I would have crashed at half the speed. These riders have a incredible skill level.

This has to be one of the most dangerous sports today. The potential for getting seriously hurt seems higher than MXGP or MotoGP. At any minute (at least in this run) a crash can mean badly broken bones, to say the least.

The way camera microphone gets clogged up with mud and mutes the audio, but on the finish goes back to normal is probably accurate to how Amaury felt in that moment
