The 2021 World Cup DH season came to a close today, but not without one final dramatic race. Ben Cathro breaks down some of the biggest stories from the finale.
From reddit: “Update on Jess Blewitt after her horrible crash. Jess has a broken femur requiring surgery. She also has a broken collarbone, wrist , cracked rib & two small cracks in her lower back fortunately none of which require surgery.” Hope the bill doesn’t kill her funds since it’s the usa..
I kept thinking there was some kind of messed up joke. They kept saying blew-it. Like she messed up and just blew it. Wasn't till later I realized it was her last name. She did blow it tho
Thank you Ben! Watched every clip you postet this season and enjoyed them all! Amazing performance on the bike in Snowshoe! I can relate to the „you are so tall“ quote being taller than you and getting the same comments since over twenty years
As always, the World Cup delivers, what a dramatic and exciting finish to a difficult year for all the riders, staff, teams with traveling etc....congrats to all.
Epic finale to what has been an incredible World Cup season. So unpredictable….who’d have thought that Pompon would crash on one of the flattest corners on the track after making the rough stuff look like nothing? Then Loris going off track too!
Sending healing vibes to Jess Blewitt after her brutal crash. Broken femur, collarbone and wrist!
Appreciate your time and effort in all the content you do as well as your racing....haven't times on before till recently and now i will follow your input on stuff.....

This year Trek Factory Racing had 2 separate riders win World Cups in the Male Elite category - when, if ever, did this happen before?
A few more from the top of my head…
- Syndicate again in 2015 with Greg at Fort William and Ratboy winning Mont Sainte Anne.
- Specialized in 2014 with Troy at Fort William and Gwin winning chainless at Leogang.
- Syndicate in 2009 with Greg (South Africa, Fort Bill) and Peaty (La Bresse and Andorra)
So only Spesh 7 years ago, for what is technically a "factory" team
Rise up Ben Cathro superfans
Ill see myself out.
Then Loris going off track too!
