Gold Medal Winner,
Mads Würtz Schmidt, Denmark:
"It was a very hot seat - but I made it. It is the biggest day of my life. I
haven't realized yet that I´m actually world champion - I think it will take me
some days to realize. I knew I had the fastest time at every time check - I had
Morten Bennekou (junior coach) in the car behind me and he told me. I wasn´t
worried about the speed - actually I increased the speed through the race. It is
just amazine - it is unbelievable".

Silver Medal,
James Oram, New Zealand:
"I always go to races with the ambitions to win. To be in the hot seat pretty
much all day and still end up on the podium is amazing, I couldn't have asked
for more. I´m over the moon actually. I came to the Worlds with the expectation
of being extremely happy to finish in the top five.
Bronze Medal,
David Edwards, Australia:
"I am really happy about my bronze medal - I was a very good nice circuit, there
were parts with wind and other parts with no wind and there were many technical
turns. I liked racing inside the city - the crowds were amazing".
