that front flip over the bars crash is right at the start of this: http://dirtmag.co.uk/worldcup/category/Videos/dirttvla-bresse-world-cup-finals/dirt-1235039.html
it looked such a nasty crash.

Dude, Sam Hill has the leaders jersey now! 4th at RSA and 2nd at FRA! Kyle strait is coming out of nowhere with the 11th place and aaron with the 13th. Go Aus. and USA!
Kovarik crashed cause it was so slippery through the rain.
Peaty killed it, I was so happy that he made it

strait would have been a fair bit lower down if it didn't start raining when he finished his run- is part of racing but still....a bit lucky
proper good race even so

Hill doesn't have the leaders jersey to whoever said that, peaty has it! and rightly so - hill is 4th with Hannah in 2nd
I think Kyle got lucky with the weather changing right after his run, but it was a good run by him.
So stoked for Peaty tho, its been a while since he was on top of the podium.

He may have gotten a tad lucky, but still. Its good to see all of his hard work is paying off, who knows he might even crack a top 10 this year, that would be awsome.
It was a good run but the rain I think helped the top guys. From what I saw in the earlier runs some of the guys were having some difficulties hooking up in certain sections. We'll see if Kyle is really on it next race.
Yeah it's sick to see an American near the top ten, and 2 in the top 15. It would be dialed to see Strait get back into more racing.
red bull made him do some last year 'cause he was partying too much, but he seems to have stuck at it
Red Bull didn't make him do the races. He wanted to. If they wanted him to race he'd still be sponsored by Red Bull.
he raced for a while, 05 and 06 i think... and some others every now and then
but now hes back, nice!
but now hes back, nice!
Yeeah go Peaty! Been a while since he graced the top step, hopefully we'll see him up there a few more times this year (and maybe one special time in September, but that would be speculating)
PEATY! PEATY! PEATY! PEATY! I know it sounds damn gay, but I feel so great for PEATY! Damn great! PEATY!
Yes, Peaty had done it! Strait only had luck with the rain. He was the last rider bevor it begann to rain.

watched it on freecaster, i must say the commentry from rob and rachael was amazing and very emotional, absolutley chuffed for steve, still life in the old dog yet.
commentary was dope, anyone else see dan atherton boost the shed jump though, that was mad, rachel went nuts lol 
Peat got such a great experience in WC's! I think he might win another WC before he left the pro circuit!

Here in Canada the bikers take partying a bit too seriously. We have some of the best mountains in the world but for some reason we only have 1 decent racer. Eventually you may see a Canadian on top, but then again Australia and GB are really the power houses in the sport.
