World Cup DH 2021

Is there a bigger blunder in cycling than having the broadcast of the World Championship race being geo-restricted every year. And this year it is so tight that I cant even break through with the VPN built into Opera. Anyone have a work around?

Maybe if you practice really hard, you can be in it next year.
 
Minnaar's run...


The thing about Greg is he is so smart, so tall and so smooth that he rarely looks fast. And the fact that he never had the lead until the finish line would be like a basketball game in which the team wins at the buzzer without ever leading!
EDIT: Ooops - looks like he led at the first split. My bad.

And it's no fluke. He already had a 4th and a 7th in World Cups this season and won the European Cup. Three podium last season, including a WC DH win.

And he was a Yeti dude back with Gwin, Blenkinsop, Graves, Rude and Leov. Yeti had a knack for finding and developing great racers. Although Eliot barely broke into the top 20 on the World Cup DH circuit, he knows racing and his stoke can't be denied.
 
Some highlights - and I love Eliot Jackson. He just loves racing! Much better sidekick for Rob Warner than Claudio is.

I felt like his mic was way too low, and made him sound way more low energy than usual (although when you have Rob Warners commentary anything else will sound low energy).
Buti agree, much better than Claudio.
Maybe it's a language thing, but he always sounds awkward
 
Both Men's and Women's races were spectacular! Thanks for the links, @mtnbikej! Strangely, they only work on Safari for me, but they did work!
Wow, wow WOW! I love DH racing so much!
 
Fox Sports 2 showed the short track. Not at all sure why they’d not cover the DH too.

My forearms are pumped just watching that 2 minute long rock garden.

Great weekend crowd for the second race.
Well actually, FS2 showed 4.5 hrs of DH last night…judging by the late hours and lack of non-red Bull ads, it looks like RB bought themselves an infomercial block…
