In Europe, is this race airing on normal TV?  Here in the USA, we have to have an online subscription to FloSports (which is also how most of the Diamond League for track is shown, and several other sports).  They air the Vuelta and Tour de France, but not this WCH.

In Spain the World Championships, Tour de Francia and Vuelta a España are always broadcast on public TV. They usually show other 1 day races in Spain such as Itzulia or Clásica Jaén and even European Championships. Other races are broadcast in Eurosport.

Evenepoel's equipment losing the race?

And his temper, honestly. Keeping his head cool could have saved him so much energy, but he's a ball of rage (which is both a strength and a weakness).

It's a no no for Remco

But well. He did get some nice help from the cars...

:GBR BBC has the rights but only shows the senior races, whereas all our medals usually come from the age group races.

Evenepoel cutting his cheese into slices - Hindley & Pidcock the casualties.  Not getting any nearer to Pogačar though.

Pagacar and Evenepoel should really slow down a bit, because this is looking so grotesque in this moment in history of cycling... At least Armstrong was slowing down a bit – he limited only to the TDF and I don't remember that he attacking with 100km to go, etc... Landis did something like that once on the TDF in 2006 and got busted immediately. Pagacar does this practically all year round and I'm supposed to believe it`s a normal? The same with Evenepoel – the guy returned from Rwanda just 3 days ago after a massacre Sunday battle on a difficult course and today he is crushing the fresh Ganna, who's an very good time trialist? I think I will actually give up on this sport, because it's increasingly insulting to my intelligence...

    • I love that it is more straightforward in relation to the number of quotas and does not allow possible problems as it was in Tokyo and Paris.
    • I love the judo qualification system, for me is the best in all disciplines. It combines a strong circuit, and it allows 100 or so countries to participate in.   So, maybe, if UWW does its job properly, it will be a good thing.
    • China Media Group (CMG) will broadcast all 116 gold medal events of the Milan Winter Olympics live on CCTV-1, CCTV-5, CCTV-5+ and CCTV-16. It will also use technologies such as 4K/8K ultra-high definition to enhance the viewing experience. Live broadcasts of all events will be carried out from 16:00 Beijing time to 06:00 the next day.
    • The strength of the UK is that they are 100% focused on the track, while Italy must to navigate between the track and the road: the line-up is different for practically every event, etc. Paternoster should focus 100% on the track; she won't win anything big on the road anymore. As it is, she's weak both there and there. The situation is different with Balsamo, as she's also having significant success on the road and likely earns the most money there.
    • Discovery+ in the UK have also got their schedule up now.     I notice that only thing listed as being in UHD is the Opening Ceremony though....     
    • The problem over the last few years was that no-one was able to keep pace with the big Katie Archibald turns. Looks to be sorted now.  
    • The women's top 50 is so crammed with athletes from the same five nations that it is not inconceivable they are unable to fill the full quota from the top 50, in which case a third double spot would open up between USA/BEL/GBR
    • That women's pursuit team looks brutally fast. Batter you over the head into submission brutal, perhaps not seen since the early Trott-Rowsell days The 4 minute barrier could be on borrowed time.   The two British women sprinters Finucane and Caldwell also look pretty ominous, indeed the whole women's sprint team looks in some shape and with some depth to get that result without Finucane   Work to do for the British men's teams, but they won't be unhappy either, not to mention Joe Truman's unexpected Kilo win.
    • I prefer to do mine like this guy (https://app.podiumsport.it/) does his "Projected Medals" as probability based rather than straight medal picking... all things being equal, conversion rates should be about the same and the outliers come out in the wash. Unfortunately most people just like medal picking, and think any other approach is weird  
    • So probably: Men Oceania: Americas: Africa: Asia: One of  Europe: One of Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (probably not)  and whichever countries don’t qualify from Asian Games.  Universality: ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of the above in World Rankings    and one of  (most likely) or  seem safe with two quotas. The other will be favourites if a third team gets allocated two.    Women Oceania: Europe: One of Americas:  /  if US is ineligible due to their host quota, if the host quota gets reallocated then Canada will be in contention in the rankings Africa:   Asia: One of   Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (x1?)  (x1/2)  (x1/2), whichever doesn’t qualify out of  / ,  and  ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of above.  Universality: ?    is safe with two quotas between  it’ll be tough for whoever misses out of those three.   nevermind ,
