      Despite the pressure of millions of bikers judging your every crank I think it would be amazing to ride with your childhood hero’s all while a nice refreshing red bull is waiting for you at the end of the Finnish line 🔥🤙🏻

    RB Bike is the benchmark for other sports on how to do coverage.
    The highlights of action, excitement and drama of a full race weekend combined with great storytelling and amazing footage is next level!
    Also helps that DH is obviously the best sport ever invented 🤘

    Watching the Downhill Worldcup is pure excitement, allowing those watching it to immerse themselves in the atmosphere and experience emotional moments. There a so many sympathetic characters in the sport that i wish almost everybody could be first. But at least i guess everybody involved is a winner somehow :) Thank you for the great and enjoyable coverage.

    @Red Bull Bike please tell me you guys have some special retorespective coverage planned for the end of this season with the change-over in coverage? I'd watch a 2 hour show (heck make it 5 hours) of all the highlights going back to when Red Bull took over coverage of World Cup downhill.
    3:11 run by Myriam is absurdly fast, really impressive riding.

    When I used to race downhill, it was stressful and pressurised. But the whole scene was good fun travelling to different places for each race with my mates each weekend. The better you get though the more pressure to perform.

    • @RedBullBike

      Sounds sick. Maybe as the pressure increases, riders aim to dial in that process of handling it better.
