I love it that these two photographers thought about a different visual opportunity and showed us something a little more unique. Granted, I probably wouldn't run either of these images with a story about who won the race, but they still have value since they tell us more about the experience of the event.

Reminds me of the shots taken for Dirt Bike Magazine that I used to subscribe to, and read diligently. I love the photo of the turf kicking back. It would be fun to have a Helmet Cam on one of the riders.
