completely disagree. downhill is too selective at the moment. half of the riders in a peloton can´t win a stage after an attack, because they are complete descent-idiots (45-60) - has more or less nothing to do with real cycling...Downhill must be more selective, and give new tactical options in game...
making splits in the descents? - not a good thing too. of course in real cycling you often have smaller gaps after descents - but in 99,5% of the cases it has no influence of the race - the riders just come together after the descent. in RSF? give a gap of 1-2 seconds to a bigger group of the best riders downhill - and the rest will never see them again in most of the cases... it just does not work that way in RSF. in the beginning of RSF (year 2006) we had a lot of race decisions in the descents (especially attacking was easy and following hard)- compared to real cycling we had far too much races won downhill ( in my opinion really very seldom a race is won with an attack downhill or a split downhill). normally nothing decisive happens - and that should be the way it sholud be for RSF too. so i think more downhill selection would not be good.

completely agree.Stop talking about making RSF more selective, it's much too much selective right now.
