2023 SEVEN GRAVEL RACE HIGHLIGHTS | UCI GRAVEL WORLD SERIES | COMMENTARY

Welcome to the highlights commentary video for the 2023 edition of the SEVEN Gravel Race. Commentated by Australian racing commentator Jethro Nagle with footage thanks to Marco Noe AKA noéko.

Check out his amazing filming and videography work in the endurance space.

SEVEN is raced in Nannup, Western Australia and will host the Gravel World Championships in 2026.

Sincere apologies for the lack of Women's footage - I did have some onboard GoPro's with the top contenders, but the footage was unusable. The organisers are working to find a solution to capture both races in future years.

Probably the best race footage I’ve ever seen. The cinematic footage is especially beautiful

[olenowakdalner]

By distance the best race report by officials at a UCI Gravel World Cup so far! Congrats to all involved! Really makes me want to go to AU to participate even though it will be shitty expensive 😂

Great film but why this background music???

[aarondcmedia]

2:11 - great to see this content. Am curious why you have "background" music almost the same volume as your voice over. Is that a deliberate choice? At 2:18 it almost drowns out your voice over entirely.

It's not unusual to see this, either. cycle2max just fired up their YT channel and are doing a similar thing.

Why does it need music at all? It almost sounds like you're trying to make it sound exciting, but if people are not itnerested in gravel, somehow I don't think they're going to hang around for the exciting music that is almost drowning out the voice over.

This video would have been watchable with no background noise at all. Clearly you put a lot of work into it, and I hope you do more.

6:53 Did you just say “he was hit by a kangaroo on the descent”? Australia 😂😂

[ashnm]

the mens podium photo: Am i going blind... there's no nico...

[breathestrongcycling]

And here's me thinking WA was flat!!!... 😆....holy crap!

[notreally]

Is that good? Isnt the race like 100 mi?

[TrickyDickyBE]

The epic level music is tiring to listen to and there’s a big difference between the meanings of background and foreground. This sort of commentary ought to be getting that right, particularly when it’s being done post-prod.

What a surprise he's on that lance Armstrong juice. Meh
