The big South African is back on top for the second time this year. The La Bresse track was so short that any minuscule mistake could ruin a run; Greg managed to best Gwin today, but TWR's stallion has sealed the overall!
---
With the incessant talk of the "young guns" who are poised to shake up the face of downhill racing, today's events in France seem to have restored an element of normalcy to the World Cup. These results look like they could have been pulled directly from last season's World Cup! When finals rolled around the track had changed significantly from qualifying, causing the times to be nearly ten seconds slower. Steve Peat was on a flyer of a run, and landed in fifth spot, but was unfortunately disqualified. Enjoy the results for now, we'll have the replay up soon!

In the women's race, Tracy Moseley took top spot and inched ever closer to sealing the overall. Unfortunately for Tracy, Floriane Pugin was just behind her in second, keeping things tight. Sabrina Jonnier had a bit of a return to form today, racing into third spot, while Rachel Atherton placed fourth. World Champs are just around the corner, and its starting to look like anyone's game for the ladies!
