Especially trying to keep your speed to get over it, diving into that corner on wet grass and then doing a quick set up for the jump takes world class talent. Apparently no one else was hopping it. Sure, you could keep up with Nys by running it but, after 10 laps of spending extra energy there while he is keeping something in reserve...
