  1. Andrey Amador really fell behind badly recently, for vs to even be a thing...
  2. Yeah, this race was absolutely brutal. It's the Brits though: Harrogate 2019 had only 46 finishers (with Van der Poel being a main candidate as well, but suddenly being absolutely roasted after a mistake in his feeding pattern)
  3. Huh, who knew Olympic quotas are a thing in the world championships road race, I'll be damned
  4. Finally, finally, finally, first time in my life What a truly insane ride, absolutely massive
  5. Massive attack by Van der Poel and the rest seems...lackluster all of a sudden. This could be THE move.
  6. Bettiol is totally cooked. Oh well, it was a nice try and, realistically, his best chance to do it this way.
  7. Would be zero surprise if Bettiol finishes this off and nobody really tries to catch him.
  8. To be fair, it basically was one long attack. Which is his main chance, whereas Van Aert or Van der Poel will be more likely to need a short punchy attack
  9. Trenton looked so strong, but a costly mistake and he's down on Montrose...Trentout.
  10. Nice from the TV director to make sure he was at least visible for a second in his last road race
  11. TV director still needs some practice, all the time showing just the first 5 or so in any given group
  12. Belgian's main commentator: "Oh, it's not Mattias Skjelmose in the front, it's Mattias Jensen." His name is Mattias Skjelmose Jensen..... Although granted, that Danish name thing is always somewhat confusing with a difference in how riders are generally named (in international media) and how they are listed in graphics
  13. Mikkel Bjerg with a mechnical problem, awful 'help' from the neutral mechanics and not able to get back in the current high pace. Abandon.
  14. 145k to go and Sam Bennett has dropped out of the peloton, to the surprise of nobody....I mean, he is a sprinter (one with a decent punchy climb on a good day, but not 10 laps with a bunch of those every lap )
  15. About time The long way to get there was utterly stunning for the views, very much enjoyed it, but as per usual not much happened other than the tense moment for half the Dutch team right after the restart.
  16. 150k to go, seems about time for Evenepoel to start his solo attack.
  17. 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.
  18. Also, unbelievable Mohoric doesn't want to ride tomorrow....he would without any form of doubt be one of the absolute top favourites for the world title with his technical skills...
  19. 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
  20. Are we sure the British girls actually want to win this? So far they are handing it over to Bego on a nice golden plate.
  21. Later, yes, but at first she was busy gesturing towards the French girl in her wheel when they had split off for a bit from the rest of the group
