I noticed that too. He's a top-20 though isn't he, so he should go through anyway?

Im impressed with the mental strength of Matti and Barel coming back after major injuries. It takes a strong mind, especially in a sport like DH, where you get hurt bad, 1 in 5, if you fall at speed.

Wicked!
No doubt, Matti's ability to bounce back from the racing hell he has been through is extraordinary...not to mention the other crap he has had to put up with.

yep Sam's rocking the yellow and pink number, which I think you can win/buy on Dirt or something, stay tuned for the news.

If I won that, I would immediately burn it.

That is by far the worst kit that I have ever seen and a terrible step back in DH.

Why a different kit for qualifying? Are they trying to stop video makers from being lazy - you can't nick footage from qualifying and pretend it's the finals so easily? :)

And why was Peat wearing that blue & white kit yesterday?

the obsession with White Trash Moto Style hasn't yet peaked. don't hold your breath waiting for it to pass!

no doubt. I've blown out both knees, the right one 2x. that's tough enough. the mental side, regaining confidence after a wicked crash... super-tough, usually takes a good while.

Anyone else catch the couple minutes of uncensored Rob Warner before they realized the mic was on. That guy is a riot.

too bad most of what he had to say was how lame the dh coverage is going to be on sunday. sounds like we will be watching the flat bits at the bottom and not much else. . . . great:plthumbsdown: To quote Warner: "makes me not want to even do it"

I'm sure Dan did the rock jump in his first heat, something Warner seems to have missed.

BTW, What happened to Rennie??? 79th?
Yea, it´s kind of sad... Hardly qualified. Maybe some mechanical problems? He had the speed, he definately could get it back again. Considering other guys are coming back amazingly fast from pretty serious injuries.

It´s all in the head. Motivation.
