It was awesome, Sam landing on his head could of been game over, and Ratboy's run was looking good until the broken ankle.
When he broke his chain and then went on to be fastest at the next split, i was shouting at the TV, then each rider down from him my daughter an I were willing him to win, but 4th wasnt too bad.
Gee was fast but he's a machine and lost any flair.
Did you see the guy doing a no hander over the last jumps?
