10 second sticky bottle for Sagan. Wonder if the commisaires will turn a blind eye.

This english Eurosport commentator is REALLY getting on my tits saying ''Bone-a''...why can't he just friggin say ''Boonen'' like the rest of us plebs?

Good race so far though. BOONEN for the win...

Likely because for an English speaking person, that's as close to the correct pronounciation as you'll get? In Dutch you don't have to say every ending N. So, you don't have to say BooneN. The "oo" in his name are supposed to be pronounced like "oh", or like in "bone" or "tone" or "moan". Not like in "good" or "boon" or "goon".

Cheers. ''bone'' or ''boon'' is fine, I just need it to end with a N sound for my pleb happiness. :)
I don't know why the ''ah'' ending irritates me so much, it really does though.

I miss cance... no one is capable of dropping everyone in the cobbles
I think Vanmarcke is also a big miss in that regard. Easily the best current rider on the flat cobbles.
No he isn't...
He is one of the very best over the cobbles. Pity he can't do much after it returns to asphalt.

Sagan is clearly an alumnus of the Jens Voigt school of attacking all the time.

Voigt's attacks were pointless and mostly show off/sponsor fodder.

Seldom did he fight for something.
Not true. Ok, well maybe later in his career

That's the reason why sagan doesn't have a chance of winning roubaix. He was in the first winning move and now he punctured after dropping gva and dege

Streaming is really patchy for this race. ASO shut quite a few down innit.

Sagan mechanical. Not good.
