14th Binck Banck Tour , 13-19 August (2.UWT)

[Zinoviev Letter]

Excellent work Pedersen and Mullen to set that up. Stuyven very strong to convert the opportunity. Ewan easily the fastest in the sprint.

Funny that nobody comments on Stybar's third place as if he sprints to top three placings in WT bunch sprints every day.

 

[Anderis]

I'm surprised that Stybar managed to finish so high in a bunch sprint here.

Thank you

I actually thought it was Jakobsen from above, when I first saw the finish. But after I saw Stybar's name on the result list, it makes much more sense, as Ewan went by him like he was standing still. Difference between a somewhat punchy classics rider and a pure sprinter

Jakobsen abandoned early in the stage so they had to be inventive.

The whole team bossed it from 6k to go to get them in pole position into that crucial left-hand corner. And Pedersen had the easiest job of all

What do you mean, "set up"? Pedersen just... "accidentally" slowed down when going round that corner. Well, he'd been crashing a couple of times, so who can blame him.

Chapeau Stuyven & Trek! It pays obviously to look at the map of the finish

Stage 5 Sint-Pieters-Leeuw to Lanaken 204.4 km

Will the sprinters finally get their day?

And now he is DNS after a crash yesterday.

How come I am able to get all the detailed results from yesterday's sprints (primus sprints, golden kilometre) from the Cycling News site but not from the Binck Bank Tour's own website?

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Stuyven and Pedersen are going to be a deadly combo in the spring classics

 

[glassmoon]

Primus sucks

 

[Laplaz]

Is the break gonna take this?

Re:

Yes.

 

[glassmoon]

[glassmoon]

[Flamin]

Poor Rickaert.

 

[RedheadDane]

Noo… Rickaert…

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Wonderful race today.

 

[glassmoon]

Nice one, Cort.

 

[WKA311]

Impressive sprint from Van den Berg.

 

[Cance > TheRest]

Cort is just too good in these situations!

 

[RedheadDane]

Is this Cort's new "thing"? Starting the sprint from the front in a three-man group?
