Summary
World Championship week is here and we are officially ready for Aachen! Nicole is joined by Sam Watson, Diarm Byrne, Annie Bishop and Spike Milligan to take a proper look at the field and try to work out just how this championship might unfold. Can Laura Collett and London 52 add a World title to their European crown? Is this the final head-to-head between two championship greats in London 52 and fischerChipmunk? And with Lordships Graffalo, JL Dublin, Diabolo, Falco and plenty more waiting in the wings, who actually comes out on top? The team also looks at the nations fighting for the medals, what we can expect from Giuseppe Della Chiesa's cross country track and, of course, puts their reputations on the line with their team and individual podium predictions. Highlights • The London 52 vs fischerChipmunk rivalry and one final championship showdown • Who can challenge for individual gold • How strong are Great Britain and Germany? • The USA, New Zealand and Ireland's medal chances • What to expect from the Aachen cross country • The combinations flying under the radar • Team and individual podium predictions Guests Sam Watson is an Olympian, World Championship team silver medallist and EquiRatings co-founder.
