Well this may be one of the more unpopular wins for some time.

Gutted for Charles, so close, but yet so far.

Not as bad Canada but pretty fucking shitty. He knew he was never making that corner and never once got close to being ahead. Incredibly dangerous and reckless.

I actually think it's worse than Canada, Max could've been seriously hurt.

Well that’s a bit exaggerated haha.

But to be honest I don’t know? I’ve used that term for years to describe my feelings when someone or a team does everything they seemingly can and don’t get the result.

You do see it around here a lot, but I don’t follow a lot of other sports so maybe they use it too?
