2011 World Championships: Champery
- Thread starter RUFUS
- Start date
I thought I was gonna have a heart attack watching Hill. That was fvcking intense!
I was under the impression last years wold champion would go last... Why did sam run now? And not a bad run at all!
yeah, what gives?
Fvck I thought Val di Sole was intense...this is nuts.
Mitch is STILL fastest through the speed trap! Awesome!
seeding is based on world cup ranking
whoa, bryceland
Bryceland's gonna need a rope to retrieve his bike from there!
Wow. Bryceland. Good god.
reigning world champ doesnt go last though since Hill had the #1 plate?
well, since he's already raced, no
thanks captain obvious. if it went by overall rank, shouldnt he have gone towards the beginning of the field?
Must have changed since last year then, since Sam went last after missing most of the season.
You would think.
But SH still managed a Top 20 ranking despite only racing 2x this season.
dude. don't be a dick. we all know that he didn't go last. we are all wondering why though; because we were under the impression that this year would be like all past years in that reigning world champ gets the number one plate and also goes last and the remaining seeding is based off of world cup standing.
It's absolutely god awful compared to practice.
what do you want me to say? I didn't make the rules and you made assumptions.
Looking at the top 10, seems like the french team's training on that track in the pissing wet has come into handy, not very fair on the others IMO
so gutted for brendan, was hoping him or sam could pull it off

yeah, but they didn't have to fish their bike out of a ravine.The dudes from Mauritius beat Bryceland.
So much for MY dark-horse. Pisser!The dudes from Mauritius beat Bryceland.
That didn't help.yeah, but they didn't have to fish their bike out of a ravine.
Any other team could have gone there to train.
yep. if they wanted to practice that bad, they could have
No. It is fair.
Anybody/everybody else could have... but didn't.
Looks like Hill might be in the top 10 after blowing up his shoulder (or whatever the injury was)
Impressive on a track that requires so much upper body strength.

The track seems to be getting worse now with the heavy rain. Every guy that's gone recently is solidly off pace at the splits.
