After a year off, Dirt's MTB World Cup fantasy competition returns

Dirt Fantasy League is back for 2016

After taking a year out, the team at Factory Media are once again running the Dirt World Cup Downhill Fantasy League, this year sponsored by Trek.

The Fantasy League idea is simple, you have £1,000,000 to spend on four male riders and one female rider for this year’s 2016 Downhill World Cup race season. Points are scored for each of the seven rounds (qualifying and finals) and the person with the most points on September 4th (the final round in Vallnord) is the winner.

The free-to-enter competition has spot prizes throughout the season and the overal winner at the end of the series will win a Trek Bike.

So far 39% of teams have gone for Rachel Atherton and 35% for Sam Hill. Find out more here.
