Somehow I see him crashing and ruining the rest of his spring as a very plausible scenario.

Hmm I thought I read somewhere that they already made him loose those extra kgs under a new trainer because it did not really work out. Anyway, yeah, he is still young so he should naturally grow into these type of races a bit more.

Poor spring classics for Magnier. He had a lot of bad luck in Omloop, Kuurne and Wevelgem with mechanicals, but he also just seem to be lacking a bit. Was very easily dropped in San Remo and did not really look like being able to contest the sprint today. So far he has been super impressive...

Vingegaard, Pellizzari, Storer

Well lets hope that Seixas and Del Toro have improved enough to challenge Vingegaard a bit for second in the Tour. Because the gap between him and the other contenders here is way to big to expect any excitement for second place in the Tour if it has to come from the competitors in Catalunya.

Think by now people could argue that Hirschi is actually a temu Schmid.

He did train 350KM over the last 2 days. So seems to be at a decent training workload at least. Maybe he needed some time in Colombia?

Too much moto pacing for the Pogacar group.

Too bad he is out of MSR. In certain scenario’s I could actually have seem him win and in many scenario’s he could have podiumed here.

With the wind being unfavourable this might be UAEs best chance of victory, but i doubt they will play it like that because there is a risk del Toro could win it instead of Pogacar. But if Del Toro is strong enough to force van der Poel to close him down with Pogacar in his wheel that could be...

Van Aert will probably pull for Pogacar and van der Poel on the flat.

All of them were lucky Del Toro was not here.

When Uijtdebroeks sprints he doesnt product any extra watts so it makes sense

Not on the mountainbike

Shouldnt he come back to the first group first?
