Thanks to Dean Lucas, Scott's PRO athlete, let's hear what professional athletes think of this decision. It transpires that there is a lack of communication and the athletes find themselves not deciding anything but accepting the decisions made. There is a bit of bewilderment given that DH has always been a genuine sport where racing in any weather condition has always been the rule: no one has ever thought of canceling a race, it's not "cool". But now the UCI, with the arrival of Discovery, is bringing new dynamics to sport and it is normal that many athletes do not agree.

Do you remember Danny Hart's descent at Champery 2011? Would the race be cancelled? Let's see what the PROs think.
Today was an interesting day here in Loudenvielle.. There is a really strange feeling around after the Juniors race was canceled due to overnight bad weather which caused obvious safety issues on the track. People had opinions and I was interested in hearing them, so we went around hearing some opinions. Enjoy what some people in the field have to say about the situation —Dean Lucas
However today the weather improved and there seems to be not too many problems for the ELITE races.
