It looks like TD punched the tickets of Froome and GT setting it up. That’s got to be concerning for Ineos.

J-V is going to be formidable. All of TD, Kruiswijk, Roglic, Bennett, and Kuss have shown decent form. Hopefully the TdF will be a bike race.

Bold tactics from Bora

Wout and LFF might neutralize each other, though!

that was awesome. the race destroyed the teams so there weren't any trains at the end. LFF an WVA killing it in their own ways.


AND we got to see Phil at the end. 9th

Great finish. The descending from JA and Wout was impressive. JA was right on the edge a few times coming down the Poggio.

Alaphilipped even tried to wheelsuck his way to victory in the last 1.5 km, but it still wasn't enough.

That's quite the complete performance from WvA: tactical shrewdness to sit toward the front and the jump to catch Alaphilippe when the later made the initial attack, equanimity under pressure when he was dropped toward the top of il Poggio, confidently efficient descending (what allowed him to catch up to Alaphilippe, reminiscent of Sean Kelly), and sheer power to lead out the sprint and win it.

Top of it all, he can give his teammate a lesson on how to sprint properly

I counted only ~10 minutes of action, but that was quite the 10 minutes of action.

I was surprised that LFF looked slightly rattled and WvA just calmly closed him down. WvA looked like the wily veteran.

LFF did a great job sitting on WvA on that flat. And neither is a slouch in a sprint, but WvA is just in beast mode right now.

Meanwhile in Poland, Evenepoel just calmly TTs away for like 45km.

The last 10k of MSR always gets my HR into red zone. That was phenomenal.

Over in Poland, Young Skywalker is in process of making the field look like juniors.

You’re right, that’s exactly how LFF looked, as if he didn’t know what to do. With his descending skills I thought WvA might take longer to get there but he made it look effortless.

Was afraid it might be a Sagan-Kwiato repeat, just shows how sharp his race craft is to go with motor.
