It's really the first race of the season that's kept them that close. Jackson picked up only 50 points at that race while Loic got the max - 300 points - after qualifying 1st and winning the race. It would be great if the overall came down to the final race of the season rather than being wrapped up before then. With the final race being in Mont-Sainte-Anne the crowd energy could be epic, especially if Gracey is also in position to win the overall.

It's nuts how close the men's elite standings are right now considering that Jackson won four of the first five and two thirds of the races so far. After Loic won in Andorra, it's only 150 or so points separating him and Jackson, which is less than the points for one win.

Mooooooom they're talking about chainstay length in the tech romours thread again!

Some tight racing. This morning MotoGP had a timed session. The top 10 spread on a 1:20 lap was 0.718 Sec. Our Q1 top 10 spread on a 2:40 run was +1.349 Sec.. How on earth can a bunch of guys hurdling down a blown out track with changing conditions (stray rocks, berms exploding) be closer than a manicured tarmac Motogp lap with everyone on the same line, 50 person support crews, unlimited data analysis etc. is beyond me. Madness.

but what if they are building?

Honestly I just feel for Jenna at this point. 13th Q1... 6th Q2. She had a Q1 11th in VDS. And a Q1 11th in Poland. She has not seen a single final this year. (And on a team that absolutely needs the points.) I hate that inherent level of pressure for her. It's one thing to be far off the pace and know you need to make changes. But to be constantly on the bubble and maybe not sure where to squeeze that extra juice from...

Gwin stated it was the other (the good) elbow this time.

We found the "massive technical issues" at the start then.

Alloy frame, coil sprung, DH tyres and he's upset that it's 16kg? Help! Waiter! My steak is too juicy and my lobster is too buttery!

That is not heavy brother

I think Jackson is on a medium these days. Seems that would be the right size not a size up for him? Would love so see someone create a database comparison with riders height and bike dimensions.

Apparently Jackson cracked the rim in the back. From Wyn tv

Simple instructions for the commenters, STFU when Niko (or whichever pro is in the booth) is talking.

Dudes who picked up their first win last year are the some lucky MFs. There aren't gonna be any of those laying around for the next decade. Vergier certainly put down a winning run. Amazing stuff from Goldstone.
