'It's Wichman...Wichman with the holeshot...Ow no! They all go down! It's a carnage! (Rob Warner's live commentary after the gate dropped at the World Championships)

It wasn't hard to tell that Joost was very dissapointed after the race. This is what he has to say about the 2011 World Championships:

'That’s racing' people say... or 'Maybe next year'... 'We know you were the fastest this night'... and 'In my opinion you are the champion'...

But I'm not. That's a fact. And it's all very nice what everybody said to me but the dissapointment is still there. I can't wear the rainbow jersey next year.

I've got a bronze medal. Not bad, but not what I wanted. I have to stay focused and keep on chasing my dream. Next year a new shot! I'll be there!

Thanx to all the people who supported me this season: sponsors, trainers, family, friends and my team.
