Here are the standings. Lets bet who will finish on top. Prelim runs count 50 points for top placer so Mr. Peaty stays ahead of Minaar on the standings.

LISBON, Portugal (Kathy Sessler) -- What can we say other than Steve Peat rules the downhill in Lisbon as he wins the downtown event for the 6th year in a row, obliterating the nearest competitor by 2.624 seconds, and that is teammate, Nathan Rennie. If you could say this was a great romp for the Santa Cruz Syndicate, you would be correct. It was brilliant that Santa Cruz Bicycles owner, Rob Roskopp was on site to witness the brilliant moves of his team into first and second place at this amazing downtown race!
Final top five:
1: Steve Peat: 1:39.658 SANTA CRUZ SYNDICATE 2: Nathan Rennie: 1:42. 282 SANTA CRUZ SYNDICATE 3: Filip Polc: 1:42.444 4: Samuel Hill: 1:42.543 5: Matti Lehikoinen 1:42.563

Bryn Atkinson and Sabrina Jonnier are now both $5000usd richer on this memorial day weekend. Both beat scorching heat and slippery trails and Atkinson also dealth with a stacked fields here at Mountain Creek. Favorite and fastest qualifier Sam Hill had a mechanical and was far off the pace by the time he came crashing into the open. Andrew Neethling took a long sit in the hot seat after having a tough week that including introducing his head to the ground multiple times. Jurgen Beneke made yet another appearance and taught the kids a thing or 2, landing himself in 3rd place behind Canadian Junior Phenom, Steve Smith. Men 1 - Bryn Atkinson (AUS) GT 2 - Steve Smith (CAN) Cove 3 - Jurgen Beneke (GER) Old World PLaster 4 - Duncan Riffle (USA) Honda Iron Horse 5 - Curtis Keene (USA) Specialized Women 1 - Sabrina Jonnier (AUS) Monster Iron Horse 2 - Fionn Griffiths (GBR) Norco 3 - Kathy Pruitt (USA) Jamis 4 - MIssy Giove (USA) 5 - Amelia Colasurdo

mato, thanks for the pics man, you did it again! i remember when you posted a batch of pics from a top pro road race in switzerland and i can't help but imagine the prickly sensation i might have felt along my spine if i was the one behind the camera. if i'm worth the favor brad, do tell us how it was like being an up-close-i-wish-my friends-were-here spectator in the 2nd round of the WC-DH in Champery. really sorry to bother you with such a silly request, i'm a hopeless fanboy when i am back to your pics, i saw hill, peaty, rennie, jonnier, the alien and is that the missile wearing an alpinestars tee? wow!

Steve Peat (GBR) Santa Cruz Syndicate 4:11.81- DRY 3. Sam Hill (AUS) Monster Iron Horse 4:11.84 - RAIN, MUDDY WET It was impossible to beat a dry run with wet run, but almost, with sam hill's impressive run. i am now a fan. tv.repubblica.it/home_page.php?playmode=player&cont_id=10754sam was last man down, destroyed race track, wet muddy slippery race course what a run! missed top place podium by 1 second plus and 2nd place by .03 sec maybe he is the new alien! i have personally seen in cam sur how barok rides a wet course as if it was dry! on his IH sunday. GiFted! Iron horse madcatz on the podium again!- (hope it will not raise the tag price of the ih sunday hehehe) Swiss women dh rider, 1st, it's called, home court advantage, Asian MIO of japan rides an intense now? (former trek) It's Brian Lopes for the 4x and Jill kintner womens 4x 4x tracks with rocky section.

sam is buwang! champerry gave him the opportunity to show the rest of the pack HE'S THE MAN! smashing the qualifying time 4:01:89....and again at the final run...hitting the course as if it was dry!? and if it was...he was the rightful champ...'nuff said...
and as for idol lolo nico...he's still got IT..just needs some small fine tuning.

forgot to mention on sam hill's final wet run, he crashed and separated from his bike,
resulting to 1 sec + off matti and .03 sec off peaty squeaking in for the podium at 3rd.
WHAT! Simply put, he can beat the dry run of matti and peaty if he did not crashed
Imagine if sam hill won that 2nd round world cup, just imagine.......
"uwian na", (pack up) every pro should hung up their uniforms. and retire, look for other careers, there skill is no match.....
they are competing against a downhill god!
GIVE HIM THE CROWN!
Like Sam Idol!
I like it too, if its already wet and slippery! arousing,
fast pump action galore..plok plok plok plok plok plok
hehhehhehehehehehehehehhehehehehe sory.

to ride this track while dry requires a definite level of skill beyond most people, to race down it and get a resonable time requires true talent, to do what Sam Hill did this afternoon is truely godly and is a feat that it seems only he is capable of.

Sam's historic run for 3rd place finish. muddy 3rd SAM's and dry 3rd SABRINA's The men?s start list was a strange affair, with many of the world?s best qualifying strategically near the bottom of the list, trying to beat out the regular 4 pm thundershowers. Steve Peat (GBR) went off 20th and recorded a 4:11.81, good enough for a long stay in the hot seat and an eventual second place finish. Taking his place 20 riders later was Matti Lehikoinen (FIN) with a 4:10.21, good enough for the win. About 10 riders later the skies decided it was time to make good on their threats, and the heavens opened up. The course quickly turned into a gigantic, kilometer long, slip n? slide with riders crashing 3 and 4 times on course. Rider after rider left the start gate, none able to crack the top 10; not even the legendary Nicolas Vouilloz. Hill would leave the gate last, and just over 4 minutes later, would leave the crowd amazed. Not playing the strategy card, and instead chasing series championship points had put Hill last out of the gate. Leaving the start house in torrential rains and riding like a man possessed, Hill put down a run that will go down in mountain biking history. Hill flew through the mud and railed the berms as if they were dry. He shoved his mud covered bike across the line with a time of 4:11.84. The crowd roared its approval following a stunned silence. Hill had not only managed to claw his way onto the podium and into third place in the worst possible conditions, but he put down a time only .03 seconds short of second place, and 1.6 seconds short of the win. "About 40 minutes before my run it really started coming down. It was a real mess when I was doing the race. I felt pretty good until I crashed.? Hill explained. ?I still knew I was on a good run; maybe a win." By the time the Aussie rolled out of the gate, 100+ riders and an hour of heavy rains had obliterated the course. "It was a lot more slippery than anytime it had been during the week", said Hill. "I felt like I was on a really good run until I crashed. Without a crash I might have won.? Ever gracious with the win, Lehikoinen commented on Hill's run "The ride of the day; he was amazing. I'm happy to get the win, but that was such an impressive ride." After two events Hill now sits in second place overall in the UCI World Cup series, 18 points behind the leader, Steve Peat. Jonnier leads the series by 70 points in front of fellow French woman, Emmiline Ragot. The team now travels to Mont Ste Anne, Quebec for the only North American stop of the 2007 World Cup season on June 23-24. I will post here a photo at Race pit of team Honda Gross A dry HONDA RN01 of Matti and A muddy one of Greg minaar, tells a lot the conditon of the race course on finals race day. the weather played a major factor in the finals, there's a plan to change UCI ruling on top 20 or 30 riders, will post it here.
