[Racing] Val di Sole World Champs seeding Gallery

[ad3]

It was hot and hectic in Val Di Sole, Italy for the seeding runs.  You can find the full results here, but the short and sweet is that Danny Hart was up by a sizable 2.5 second spread and Rachel Atherton came into first by about a half second.  Perhaps the coolest thing that happened today was that with just one day of practice, Bernard Kerr smashed his way down to 4th place.  Also cool to see the ever consistent lanky frenchman Florent Payet grabbing an unusually high place with 3rd.  In second was Loic, showing he still has the speed, post injury…

Greg Minnaar getting a tune up. 10th today but don’t count him out…
Opening up sipes on Butchers? Interesting…
Marcelo Gutierrez dropping in…It’s a long ways down.
Brooke has been looking fast in the practice footage. 12th in seeding.
This guy…Bernard Kerr with 4th in seeding after taking Gee’s spot.
Alexandre Fayolle coming off of a hot one in Vallnord.
After a perfect season in World Cup Rachel Atherton is looking for the last big one…
Johannes Fischbach catching some of the last light in practice.
Neko Mullaly in the infamous last turn.
Troy scrubbing his way down the track.
All eyes in this dude. Danny Hart has been on such a tear that even with Gwin’s prowess on this track we’ve got to wonder if he can be stopped.
Loic dropping into one of the few open sections on the track.
This track has already claimed some victims and tomorrow it will surely claim more.
Despite a reserved seeding run, it’s safe to say that Aaron Gwin is still the favorite on this track. In 2012 he won here by nearly 8 seconds. That’s absurd…bring on tomorrow!
