UCI DH World Cup 2013: Fort William Preview

Today is the day of the 1st race of the UCI Downhill World Cup at the legendary Fort William! You'll be able to watch the live stream over on RedBull.tv live from 2-45 straight through until 4-50pm along with some no doubt legendary commentary from Rob Warner.

The standout favourite for the victory has got to be last years overall champion, Aaron Gwin but it's going to be hard to write off the likes of Danny Hart after his BDS victory last time out at the same venue, UK fans favourite Gee Atherton, Stevie Smith after taking the final world cup victory last year,  the ever dependable Greg Minnaar, Brook MacDonald, Sam Hill or even the veteran Steve Peat!

Angus and Carl from MoreDirt are out there on the ground and will be attempting to bring you all the latest pit gossip and a video from the downhill aswell as action from the Protour 4x so look out for that in the days that follow the event.

The last thing left to do is leave you with our predictions!
