[Flamin]

Kurne Brussels Kurne

Is this a new race?

Wind and rain expected on Sunday, so it can't be better.

 

[lemon cheese cake]

Flooding?

 

[lemon cheese cake]

Is this a new race?

Wind and rain expected on Sunday, so it can't be better.

I've called it the right thing haven't I?

 

[Maaaaaaaarten]

It's Kuurne instead of Kurne, double u.

 

[TMP401]

An unknown sprinter to win from a small breakaway as all the major teams stare at each other.

 

[Wallenquist]

With good conditions can't see anyone passing Cav. With bad weather I would bet on Kristoff. Too bad Greipel is gone, would love to see him against Cav.

 

[Jspear]

With good conditions can't see anyone passing Cav. With bad weather I would bet on Kristoff. Too bad Greipel is gone, would love to see him against Cav.

Is it now confirmed that he won't ride?

 

[Dazed and Confused]

With Cav on Hotsteppers who will brutalize the race?

 

[Wallenquist]

Is it now confirmed that he won't ride?

Yes. Out because of sore throat.

 

[Gloin22]

Hofland out with a virus.

Lotto is dying off lately with ilnesses.

 

[lemon cheese cake]

Hofland out with a virus.

Lotto is dying off lately with ilnesses.

Well if their all together, then it probably spread pretty easily.

 

[skidmark]

Pretty sure Lefevre is gonna make QST work like dogs on the front to ensure a sprint and punish them for today.

 

[trevim]

Pretty sure Lefevre is gonna make QST work like dogs on the front to ensure a sprint and punish them for today.

Yeah QST with a point to prove may make this race funny

 

[MBotero]

Yeah QST with a point to prove may make this race funny

I hope Kristoff will be kind enough to make it more funny by winning the sprint

 

[MatParker117]

Pretty sure Lefevre is gonna make QST work like dogs on the front to ensure a sprint and punish them for today.

So Viviani instead of Stannard this time.

 

[jaylew]

Anything but a bunch sprint, please.

 

[Orbit501]

Be nice to see Sam Bennett pull off something special here.

 

[manafana]

going be windy, quiet like kristoff in that case

 

[King Boonen]

Farrar to come 7th.

 

[MatParker117]

Anything but a bunch sprint, please.

Sky, Cofidis, Lotto, Katusha EQS, MTN & Europcar all have horsepower and sprinters if there all there after the climbs it will be a sprint.

 

[TMP401]

I can see Kristoff struggling and Cavendish and Viviani not making the selection either. An outsider such as Luke Rowe, who seemingly outsprinted Kristoff and Demara in the Omloop bunch sprint.
