I think nothing is going to change. This is 4x race, quite a lot of body contact and what had happened was not a deliberate attact of the french rider on Graves. He was just too fast at the wrong place and the wrong time and he took two other riders down. Tough luck I guess, not fair I guess but this is part of 4x racing - everything can happen.

p.s i assume it wouldn't mean a re-run if successful, only that grubby comes third?

Just heard from my man on the ground in Italy, No complaints, racing was all above board. UCI official was happy with all racing.

Check the Freecaster coverage, its great. Rob Warner is pure comedy! Your not wrong ;D Rob warner was funny as F**k Thought he was going to Pi** himself when the Dude on the xc bike (World famous ski legend who's name i can't remember) went down the course.

I think they cover every World cup! So I will be taking the time to watch the rest of the season.
Don't think Rob Warner will ever get on TV with lines such as............
'That was a massive crash, he went down like a a sack of sh!t'
And in the 4X, rider comes from the back,.........
'That was the best comeback since easter Sunday'
oh and they kept on coming, Pure class I think!

That's pure genius!
He should be on TV it would liven it up a bit. I loved the freecaster coverage.
Lets get a voiceover on the tribe vid. Mind you the only footage with me in it is when I'm eating. Pie taster!
