“At the start of the race I knew my hair wasn’t in my balaclava. So my hair was dangling out which was quite annoying.
“The next thing is, I started to brake and I saw the rain drops on my visor but I soon learned it was a bead of sweat dropping down from my hair, and when I braked it was flicking onto the visor.
“So I got a little bit excited at one point,” George concluded with a smile.
