If it ain't an American on the top step I hope its Kerr. That would be incredible, so much talent, makes everything look so smooth and easy. Watching his vlog helmetcam this morning he made that track look like he has been practicing it in those conditions since he was 10! So composed.

maybe I’ve not been looking, but it does seem like something of a break out year for Kerr - despite it being several years in to his career. Has he ever qualified this well repeatedly through a season? Does seem he’s on a bit of a Rando/Reid habit of winning practice but struggling in finals. Would be sweet to see him on the podium.

was there talk of him retiring this year?

Neko in 26th and Cathro in 34th, sweet!

What what happened to Finn, he was on pace and then suddenly 14 seconds back at the next split?
Neko in 26th... does that mean we'll see him on the live feed?! Will be awesome to finally hear Rob blather on about Neko's program. (no sarcasm, can't wait for his story to be told "out loud")

Kerr has been around a long time, I remember when he was a privateer racing in a plain kit no sponsors no nameplate saying to myself how does this guy not have a factory ride? I think you are right about him having his best year. Gotta assume he"ll lay it all on the line tomorrow knowing he's right there?

I'd love to see him get a win or podium, wife and I were watching his practise vlog over dinner last night and we weren't sure what his highest previous WC race result was.

edit: looks like a 5th in 2017 and 2018 at World Cup level and 5th at World Champs in 2016 and 2020.

Other insights -

* people saying "flat rocks" are dumb AF...not like a little dumb AF, like a lot dumb AF.

* there's more tree pads out here than trees.

* as formally stated by Brayton, the mud here makes the UK mud seem like magic grip goop.

* Amaury is a space wizard.

More to come...

He was also DQd out of a 2nd place a few years back for landing outside the last piece of course tape in view of the finish. I forget which WC round and year that was tho.

JG almost a second up on Amoury's quali time.

Are track conditions improving or deteriorating?
What's it likely to be for senior men?
I guess it'll be begining to dry out? But will it become sticky sucky? Or stay slippy slimey squirmy?

Both of those drops could have turned into a terminal end to the run the way she landed them.
