The interview afterward made me cry! He was welling up and had to walk away and I think that really showed how much it meant to him.
Whenever I watch those top level riders I do wonder if they still feel the love and excitement that would have driven them in the early days before money and titles took over and his reaction certainly answered my question - Go Micheal!
I was so chuffed for him yesterday. He said himself it's not been one of his good years. It was lovely to see him so emotional too, it's not often you see that from either of the brothers. Bless him.
