It's fine, prety sure it's the same cameras as freecaster, so you get fully no freezing coverage on yr big tv, just the commentary is less amusing than freecaster but i can live with that

Gee takes out the win today and become world cup champion with a time of 2:28.28, Greg comes a super close second just +0.37 behind Gee. Sam Blenkinson comes 3rd and was +1.91 behind the fastest time. Peaty looked set to win it and was nealry 1.5 seconds faster than Gee at the second split but had a flat landing at the really steep drop and went over the bars, luckily he seems to be ok.

Was a great coverage so a huge shout out to the camera crew and the guys at freecaster, can't wait for Mt St. Anne, BRING ON THE WORLDS! Go all Aussies!

Yeah was epic racing. Gee and Minnaar really stepped it up under pressure, huge props to be able to do that.

Troy smashed it with 18th, he's got the junior overall right? I think lewis buchanan was couple of places ahead today but still too far off for the overall.

Its going to make for an amazing race at worlds, Gee will want the double, Greg will want revenge and Peaty was on great form until the crash. Can't wait.

I think he does because he was a decent amount ahead of Lewis, but I think they had to finalise it so nothing official has been annouced about the junior overall result because its not as simple to tell as with Gee and Greg.

Super stoked for Gee. He's been the man this season who's totally outclassed everyone else and pinned everything he could. Well done!
Young Troy has shown that our junior's are the best again, what a future this young guy has! Well done buddy!
It would be nice to see Steve Peat go back to back world champ but I reckon Barel (if he gets back in time) will be "the one".;)

Vital MTB are saying Mick Hannah is NOT going to be at the World Champs. However, he is Australian and Australian's are renowned for being hard and can ride through all sorts of shit. Pain shouldn't be an issue..............;)

Props to Shaun O'Connor for being the top placed Aussie. Protected rider for every round next year I believe.

Demo Eight. They are actually the world rankings, which aren't actually the results of the year, rather a rank against this and the previous year(s).
