I've been watching nearly all the cx races this year and was at Namur in person in December. CX is something that would totally succeed with the Netflix Drive to Survive treatment. Fewer racers and teams like F1 and could be very personality driven although Iserbyt may have to be excluded as he seems like a buzz kill.
Let's face it. Whatever anyone might think of Lance Armstrong, the explosion of interest in cycling in the USA was driven primarily by his success and notoriety. Nobody has come along to replace him. With respect to doping--the continually and dramatically improving performances, especially those of very young riders, cannot be entirely explained by improved training methods, diet etc. There are clearly new and highly effective doping strategies in place. Whether these already involve genetic modification (eg CRISPR technology) I don't know but I am highly suspicious. When the "new doping" is revealed, which it will be eventually, it will not be a good day for the sport. Cheers
