Serious question. Why do you always spoil it by showing the winner on the thumbnail? What is the point of watching the video to see the race unfold when the thumbnail gives the result away?

👏Great ride from all three men on the podium.

What a ride from Tom, loved the effort nino was putting out

[victorchan]

Did you edit the clip during Van der Poel crash when the male announcer was praising him for being strong and powerful...bang..he went down...

[jm-btt]

Video to short. Why only 3 minutes UCI ?

For goodness sake get some better commentators! Congratulations to the riders.

As far as I understand it, the rule the UCI changed promoted MVDP closer to the front than Pidcock despite Tom doing and winning 1 or 2 world cups this year and Van Der Poel doing none if I remember correctly. So they should not have introduced this rule, but certainly I think if you win a World Cup you should at least be in the middle of the pack rather than right at the back.

Having said that, I’d like to see him ride most if not all of the World Cup next year. It would be pretty poor to not have the rainbow jersey in at least most of the races. We’ve seen world champions skip races before in preparation for Olympics or World Champs, but I’d like to see him do the majority.

Why are there two MTB World Championships? I thought there was another one earlier this week in which Pidcock got bronze.

Agora fico me perguntando o pq que a UCI não fez o resumo do Mundial de XCM no qual o Avancini venceu, será que é pq ele é brasileiro e não um europeu?? 🤔

Watching a tour de france rider come in and dominate a mountain bike race is awesome. Goes to show you how strong road riders are.

[trentvlak]

Why did you stream the women's then leave us hanging on the men's race?

[jonnysi]

Do you guys think Nino and co just wait around till Tom comes and then kicks off the event in earnest or is Tom really that much better to be able to just ride up to the front all the time?

UCI, I had my fill of Flo Sports last year when MX Sports chose them as the streaming service for AMA Pro Motocross. How'd that work out? For whatever reason(s) Peacock is once again their choice for streaming.

The commentator seemed so concerned about not being biased towards a British rider, he barely mentioned Pidcock before the race or during the first few laps when he was storming through the field. He's Olympic champion, for God's sake. He just finished third in the XCC. He's beaten Schurter before. None of this seemed to matter.
He's also got that annoying style I've heard from other cycling commentators, mainly at live races, when they feel they have to make a sound all the time and put weird stresses and emphases on unimportant words and then gabble through the important information. "And urrrr rrrriders approachinthbzzrdsnst" - the where?
Anyway, great ride, Tom. And Van der Valk crashing made my day - he clearly can't handle a mountain bike, stick to the other disciplines.

[AlekR]

Cadel Evans won World cup in mtb and World champion on Road. Maybe Pidcock will win World champion on Road in the future too?

[FranKy]

This short videos are aweful. That is all left from a WC-Ride?

[fredericlecomte]

shame on UCI, changing rules of the race at last linute haha, real shame

[PippyPappyPatterson]

why are they wearing necklaces its a race not a fashion show

[mareklazarski]

No, this lady can't comment on races like that!!!

[Pshady]

Idiotic thumbnail. But the commentary wasn’t the uci road guy so video was ok.

Great racing, mtb racing is on the up
