Yeah, race circumstances obviously play too big a role to make conclusions like that in hindsight. Having said that though, the racing has just changed from then onwards. If you have Tadej and Mathieu at the start and add in a Pedersen as well they will just go full gas from a 100k out and it's...

He did a few too many big accelerations early on like 2nd time Kwaremont and blew his engine trying to follow Pog the third time.

Pogi W, great race from him. No team, just smart riding and real attritional riding on the bergs.

Chill out hahaha

This could end up in sprint with this group of 5. Pog and Mvdp can drop them but will Pog want to ride to the finish with Mathieu.

Pog looked mvdp’s equal for the first time on Taaienberg. Very interesting what will happen on oude kwaremont. If Pog wins it will be one of his best tactical races ever.

Mathieu strongest by some distance. Doesn’t mean he will win but I think he will

I agree on the recency bias. However I also think Tadej should've raced E3. He has the well deserved advantage of being the wc and having god status in the peleton so positioning will be easier but I can still see him be out of position a couple of times. See the Cipressa for instance where he...

I get what she's trying to communicate and I don't doubt the intentions behind it at are good. What I don't like is that by posting this publicly Demi inserts herself into a conversation that she really hasn't got all that much to do with. By intertwining your own personal experiences you...

I didn’t want to say it but i’m glad you did. These type of posts are not genuine to me, feels like the message is mostly aimed at herself. If your aim is to support and help Wout, send him a personal message.

A bit weird to write a post that's essentially about Wout and attach a picture of yourself...

Yeah Tiesj after said they were so focused on winning with Wout because of what happened last year. Big mistake

Weird race

I am looking forward to how del Grosso performs here as well. Not a lot of Dutch up and coming talent around these days. Did read somewhere he’s been sick after Catalunya though so that doesn’t help.

Much appreciated brother! I'll throw in a prediction. Aside from the Oude Kwaremont I can also see Tadej drop Mathieu on the Koppenberg. He has been super strong on it both times in Flanders and the the runoff and kms after are suited for powering away.
