Don't miss it, should be a corker.

Who'd bet against Gwin after his domination there in 2013? But then he might be riding just a bit safe with an eye on the overall? So I'll stick my imaginary tenner on Brosnan.

No competition against Rachel in the ladies' really is there?

Just check the track out...

I'm going to call a win for Bruni. No chance of the overall and unable to face another season without a win, he's going to ride like a nutter whereas Gwin might just back off a touch.

Fingers crossed.

Will get to watch the ladies live and some of the mens, bit frustrating I'll miss the later men live. Just love the Red Bull format of live stream available wherever you are in UK or abroad

Gwin is the master at measuring just how much he can get away with.

Well deserved title and win.

Wonder what happened to Troy though, he was absolutely flying. Reminded me of Sam Hill on the same track from 2008.

That was amazing. Been a long time since I followed it closely but this red but coverage is excellent.

Course looked brutal!

The coverage is getting better and better.

As for the racing, wow. Brilliant riding and a fantastic ending to an absorbing season. Sad that Emmeline is retiring, I'll miss her amazing skills.

Yes it is getting slicker - and so is Warner.

Anyone notice that "how much suspension do these bikes have then Claudio?" question?

Atherton won in 13

Didn't see the crash but he went down and broke his finger.

Still third with a crash? He was going as fast as he looked then!

It's gonna be a hell of a race at world champs.

Image of the year for me:

In a year where many sports, but perhaps cycling in particular, has faced allegations of cheating, and poor sportsmanship, this ^^^ image helps restore my faith in the world!

Bravo Emmeline and Rach!

Exactly the same as Windham. Halfway down he appeared covered in dust. Turns out he'd went OTB off camera but they didn't know until afterwards because his time was so good. So very good results with two proper crashes.

He's young and consistency come with experience. In a couple of years it will be Brosnan vs. Bruni week in week out.

Some mind bending speed today on that course.

The camaraderie between the two he women is fantastic.
The brutality of the men's racing is incredible.

And possibly Vergier.

Oh, and maybe Mike Jones too.
