Fecking epic win that!

Stan is an absolute beast!

 

[red_flanders]

One guy beats 3 on a flat. Unbelievable. Literally.

 

[Parrulo]

This last 5km's shall forever be known as going "full tactical ***"

 

[PremierAndrew]

Perfect race from Stannard

Glad he won it, interested to see what he does when he isn't injured for the cobbles... looks like Wiggins'll have to compete for the leadership again

 

[Akuryo]

Wow, how could you **** up a race in just 3 kilometers? They should have just dragged Tommeke to the line and let him sprint against Stannard. Way better chance than this "tactic". They never seem to learn from their mistakes. Last year the same style of riding.

Stannard is a beast, that guy is awesome!
Sep being so strong helped him alot, the steppers had to work to mantain the gap.

 

[happytramp]

Amazing!... In your face everyone!!!!

 

[Potomac]

LMAO.....


A fail for the ages.

 

[Geraint Too Fast]

I know where OPQS have been getting their tactics from...

They're still using it...

 

[Big Doopie]

stannard. brilliant letting boonen go. the one guy who could beat him in the sprint. let him tire out in front. brilliant.

etixx. stupid. should have had anyone but boonen attack first.

lol.

 

[Eshnar]

fail of the century.

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Holy **** what a fantastisk race! Amazing victory by Stannard, incredible performance by Vanmarcke, unreal fail by OPQS. Omloop always delivers.

 

[ebandit]

awesome

One of the greatest bits of cycling I've seen, ever. Maybe sports in general I don't know. That was absolutely bloody amazing.

could not believe it either....................

...........a beautiful moment

Seems Stybar was asleep, how embarssing, 2,3,4,7

 

[Netserk]

All Tom had to do was to stay in Stannard's wheel until 200m to go.

 

[red_flanders]

I have never seen this in my entire life

No one has. Unreal.

 

[MBotero]

Yeah Stannard > Ettix.This was nuts

 

[Panda Claws]

Why not let Terpstra attack instead of Boonen

Congrats to Stannard though. Was hoping for Boonen to take this but well.

 

[Kazistuta]

Maybe we have to reconsider Stannards rep as a slow sprinter?

Great effort!

 

[Kiddesvej]

Hahahaha, that was hilarius!
Wondering about what they're thinking in the etixx-car
Nice work by Stannard!

 

[oldcrank]

Beautiful win by Yogi is beautiful.

 

[WillemS]

Stannard with a big F you to Etixx. Vandenbergh didn't play that right, but Stannard was terrific.

Corrected that for you.

 

[Rollthedice]

Ha ha ha. Lefevere must be very angry. If anyone had any doubt Sky is back an all fronts.

 

[Beacon Hill]

Epic win by Yogi

Yes, why even bother with 3km to go if you have the better sprinter and why in the blue hell Boonen was the first guy to attack?
