Bego was a level too high for the rest, and the rest just flew the flag of surrender with 15km to go, so yeah, that results in a clear gold for Bego  

Issue was that Bego was the French №2, but every time the others brought her back the French №1 just stuck to them, so they lost confidence & settled for silver.

Yep, nobody wanted to really try and work together, including teammates. And then Bego did what she was expected to do after her recent results: simply be impossible to catch (especially by a sort of unwilling group)  

 

Great job by the French.

Amazing win by  sixteen year old Albert Philipsen.  Going to win a few more!

Pretty disappointing team lining up for  in tomorrow's men's road race - none of our top riders taking part so we are likely to lose ground to Spain and Slovenia in the race for all important top 5 ranking to secure full team for Paris.

I guess a non-European country. In the past days I had read something about Japan

Almeida already with problems and the race hasn't start yet. It's strange that the jury doesn't stop the race.
