Da
Pietermaritzburg le prime impressioni dei riders impegnati
oggi nelle prove sul particolare tracciato disegnato da
Tom Ritzenthaler ...
Dopo giorni di pioggia che hanno non poco
preoccupato gli organizzatori, è tornato il sole
e Tom Ritz conta di sistemare la pista al meglio per le
prove e i Time Trials di domani.
Willoughby fermo oggi per un problema di
stomaco, Willers spera che dopo le piogge la pista diventi
meno molle ed è curioso di vedere cosa succederà
nel caso due piloti affrontino assieme la seconda curva,
il tracciato è piuttosto stretto in alcuni punti
e anche Lubbe ritiene fondamentale portarsi davanti il prima
possibile, i sorpassi saranno molto difficili.

Tension
laden practice ahead of start of UCI BMX Supercross
Pietermaritzburg - BMX riders
from around the globe put the tough new BMX track
through it's paces in the first practise session
ahead of the UCI BMX Supercross at Alexandra Park
in Pietermaritzburg with most of the elite riders
looking a little nervy as they set out on the newly
constructed track.
Despite Mother Nature’s best efforts to disrupt
the start of the World Cup season opener action
with a week of steady rainfall, the practice session
got under way as scheduled with everyone eager come
to grips with some of the Olympic experimental elements
and put the revolutionary track to the test.
“The track’s hardened up nicely so hopefully
there won’t be any more rain today and then
I think it should be pretty good come Saturday,”
said inform New Zealander Marc Willers.
“The second berm could get pretty interesting
especially if a couple of us go into it at the same
time but otherwise its pretty cool!” he added.
“It’s probably going to be fairly crucial
to get in front as early as possible as its going
to be difficult to pass in the middle section,”
said local hopeful Gavin Lubbe. “The wind
played a bit of a part today but otherwise its been
pretty good.”
One of the hot favourite’s for this weekend’s
title is Australian Sam Willoughby who decided to
sit the first training session out after being struck
down by a stomach bug earlier in the week.
“Its difficult to say exactly how it is out
there having only watched from the sidelines but
it looks to be pretty tough and quite tight but
I’ll just wait and see tomorrow,” said
Willoughby.
Kyle Dodd expressed similar views on the lack of
space to pass. “The jumps are a bit harder
than they look. You struggle to use your speed you
take into the jumps because they kick you so high
and with it being so tight its going to be really
tough to get around guys.”
“The first jump is something new for us so
that’s really exciting and the third straight
is a lot deeper than expected so it’s quite
a technical course overall but I’m really
looking forward to getting out there again tomorrow,”
said Alise Post who leads the charge for the strong
US ladies contingent.
“Its been a good day today. I think the more
we ride the track the better its going to get!”
said South African Teagan O’Keeffe.
Having had their backs against the ropes with all
the rain that’s fallen over the past few days
Tom Ritzenthaler and his team worked tirelessly
to ensure the surface was ready to go and will continue
to work overnight making any necessary last minutes
adaptions .
“We’re pretty happy all considered but
there are quite a few bumps so we’re going
to have to shave those out but otherwise it’s
been pretty good,” said Ritzenthaler.
With the course being a complete unknown for all
there were unfortunately a couple of riders who
came off second best. Donavan Mienie and Lunga Mkhize
of South Africa had heavy falls along with Julian
Schmidt of Germany however medics confirmed all
who sustained injuries were stable.
The first day’s action gets underway with
the second practise session beginning at 10h00 on
Friday 8 April.
The
UCI BMX Supercross in Pietermaritzburg takes place
at Alexandra Park on 8 and 9 April.
