Ben is a great presenter and reporter. I’m glad he moved into this as a job.

[@brentonmtb]

Amazing technical insight with a buttery Scottish accent. Wish I could watch the race like this.

[@jarnold1789]

Lol me nodding along to his track insights as if I’ll ever ride the track let alone see it in person

[@seanguild6528]

cathro for PM 🎉

[@m__r1100]

I heard he stayed trackside rather than rushing back for an ITV interview...

[@Mapl3Syrup]

Cathro for president

[@PedroStringhini]

*PM equivalent to president, for the non british

[@pavschodyko6531]

Goat video bombing was funniest 😂

[@nanaluke]

"sorry bru" 😂

[@imnotgivingmynametoamachine683]

So stoked to see new Cathro videos!

[@TheRotundRider]

3:40 Be honest with me Cathro. Was this whole segment done in one take? Or did you redo it a couple times to get the timing right? Because it was just flawless on how perfectly punctuated it was.

[@kevinfromdevon]

When Brook hit the floor during that crash, the shock wave travelled 4 times around the planet

[@thsaintful]

Ben's ghost analysis are the best

[@SouthernSender]

Asa for the win! Per usual 🤘

[@thomastenreiro5929]

I couldn’t believe Asa vermette smoothness over the stump section unbelievable

[@nicholasparry2521]

Great video man

[@sidneisoarescm]

For some tires (such as Continental "X" King), when I put the rolling direction inverted (on the front tire), I notice more grip in curves, precisely because there are intermediate (and lateral) studs in the way the tire Scorpion "XC M" is manufactured - it's difficult to try to explain this..., but it's something like that, the side of the intermediate and lateral spikes, when you turn the handlebars, are more perpendicular to the movement (and not in the direction of movement of the recommended rotation), providing, in my perception, a feeling that these studs are more "ready" and enter the terrain more, giving a greater feeling of predictability and safety in the curves. Of course, I imagine there will be some loss of roll with this, but, up front, I prefer predictability in curves. This would be a suggestion for a video theme to be more illustrative, perhaps contacting the opinions of drivers not sponsored by tire companies, independent studies and even companies that manufacture tires with side stud patterns such as the Pirelli Scorpion "XC M".

[@martenride5949]

I hope that the track does not get any more wet for tomorrow. That could get really gnarly for the riders and very risky. Leogang is already one of the hardest races and when it gets really wet it will be a real mud hell in the steep forest section where surviving counts
