You're getting really good at narrating these explainer videos. 👍 Your sister is a beast and I hope to see her kicking your butt in an epic long sprint soon. One thing worth mentioning about positioning in races this big is that only 100 riders are drawn on the screen at a time so if you're too far back, you'll never see a split, or too late to close it efficiently.
You have to read situations. If you know who you are racing with, you also know who you need to follow and who you don’t necessarily need to. Sometimes if you want the finish to suit your power profile, it’s good to go hard a bit earlier than you would think; but with intention of creating a split and having people go past you that you sit behind. You have to be creative to find ways to win/ do better against riders that are ostensibly fitter than you ;)
Sprinting at 370w (so assuming she weights about 44kg) and being in front of a bunch on a flat sprint says everything about how unrealistic zwift is … it’s all about w/kg and not about pure W as it should be on a flat sprint.
The key point was that by knowing whether you are a long range sprinter or someone who does more of a short burst is important. That way you know when you should be sprinting and that will ultimately improve your result.
@@ZRaceCentral and there you explained it in one sentence not 10 minutes. There are many many people doing zwift content, the good ones provide interesting insights, the bad ones have misleading titles and offer little. You can choose which you want to be.
@@ZRaceCentral and critical point, anybody that has ever sprinted in anything ever, understands. are you implying no videos ever offer insight? what do you think the odds are that i'll subscribe or watch any of your videos, which is your goal.
this bunch was so timid. you start your sprint from where bathsalts went from (on this course) and if you cant hold it to the finish from there, you are not gonna win.

Thanks Paul! Certainly a very good point - I’ll be sure to mention that in my next commentary/analysis of a big race.

Really informative insight into the race! Great video
edit: thanks for all the likes!
Thanks man
Enjoyed this video
Glad to hear, wise man

Yeahhhh that's Zwift. Big reason why lots choose to race elsewhere.
Good video. Bath salts loves to sprint.
Thanks. He sure does!
I do C grade races and the watts are always 250 for me to stay with the group. How is she only doing 150??
It’s because she’s likely a lot lighter than you because she’s shorter
Maybe would have been a good idea to point out which one was your sister.
I cant believe 130 watts is giving you over 3. Im 14 stone and would have to be doing 300 watts there. Doesnt feel fair!
I mean that’s life… everyone has different body types.
@@ZRaceCentral I'm like a gazelle
42KG only? uhuh
interesting how you said nothing at all for 10 minutes. crucial tip, if you claim a crucial tip, maybe have one

Can you provide an example to one that you found insightful?

No, I was just trying to find an example of what people find insightful. Anyhow, no point in arguing

Yeah, bath salts went slightly too early and didn’t have the power to hold on to the finish - dropped to around 5-6 wkg halfway through
