After Vermette’s performance at Red Bull Hardline, Tasmania, Australia where he came 2nd to Jackson Goldstone, he had his sights set on putting on a performance this week and had been showing potential throughout practice. Conditions were tough on the unrelenting course as the track was wet after significant rainfall overnight. However, Vermette showed incredible technical skills and focus as he secured victory.
Both Vermette and Ferguson were met in the finishing field by a huge roar from the sold out crowd who have provided an electric atmosphere throughout the weekend’s action in Wales. BFGoodrich rider of the week was awarded to Louise Ferguson who has also been a crowd favourite after making history on both days.

I wasn’t expecting to come across in first place after a couple of mistakes but coming across the line and seeing green was an insane feeling. The conditions are mint – the rocks were still a little slippery but all the dirt in between was so money I’d like to go and do another lap!”
“I haven’t been doing the best all year so to get this feels so good and hopefully we’ll keep going forward in this way! I just tried to have fun on the run and have fun while biking so I always try and stick to that. The whole race is super cool – Hardline is one of the funnest races i’ve ever done”

On finishing in second, Charlie Hatton, said, “Red Bull Hardline done for another year, I ended up in 2nd place which I’m over the moon about. Anytime you’re on the podium at Red Bull Hardline is always a good day so I’m buzzing. The crowd were insane, the racing was insane so, it was a hell of a day out!”
After finishing Red Bull Hardline UK in third, Rónán Dunne said, “Finals day so I was definitely nervous coming into it and it was a super early start for me as one of the first riders going off. I can’t complain with P3 as we had pretty slippery conditions. Hats off to Asa and Charlie – they ripped it and it was sick to watch. I was definitely nervous at the top as it was tricky to know how much to push because of the conditions but I’m stoked I got it down.”
