But obviously in CX, they do it with much lower tyre pressure and therefore have more grip on the wet cobbles.

It was in 43rd as of the most recent update, although the points scored yesterday by Pithie and Laporte might have moved it up a tad. One of our forum statisticians will probably have a better idea of this than me, but that seems unusually low.

Jaume Guardeño was involved in a severe crash with a vehicle on Tuesday. He was lifted from the scene by helicopter and is still in the intensive care.

Naturally, I dropped to 27th one race after posting this.

The map is also not exactly a masterpiece. How is anyone supposed to tell which circuit is which?

This sprint was about positioning and having enough left in the tank, not pure speed. That's a sprint Pedersen has a shot at when he doesn't kill his legs - on paper, he and Wærenskjold are both reasonably evenly matched and definitely not the fastest in this group in a regular sprint.

This is quite literally the opposite of Pedersen in approximately 95% of classics.

He looked plenty fast in Sanremo. You could also have made this post without the insults.

Shades of 2019 Amstel. Van Aert really is cursed at this race.

Pedersen himself is also stupid, more likely to win in a sprint than with whatever the *** he's trying to accomplish right now.

God forbid RR isn't complaining in realtime about a race he isn't watching.

Odds of Larsen riding for Visma next season?

Less than half a minute, if the peloton grows two brain cells it will be a sprint.

I don't think Planckaert was planning on camping out in the Flemish Ardennes until Sunday...

De Lie DNFing really early four days after a good Wevelgem, never change.
