If I may add to the Fleche Wallon bashing

Fleche Wallone, the kinda race you only watch if there's things you have to do, but you don't want to do them for 2 hours.

Will be difficult for Valverde as everyone will be watching at him.
Last year, he was leading from the bottom. The peloton allowing him to set the pace didn't work out well for the others.

Tim Wellens even said before the race that he'd attack on this climb. You'd think that anyone else who wants to win this race, but knows they can't win a sprint up the Muur, would consider going with him. But no...

Tim just wants to end this as quickly as possible so he can get home to watch the rugby with G

Weird, right? You'd think others would have gone with him. There aren't many who can actually win on the Mur, after all.
