2018 Innsbruck World Championship Men's Road Race - 259km

[Red Rick]

The Igls climb is absolutely fantastic for hard championships.

 

[BlackWhiteEagle]

Tolhoek, Benett, Moscon, Buchmann and...?

 

[Pantani_lives]

So a tough course does make a better race.

 

[samhocking]

Kennaugh looking mighty good got GB all day. Looks in killer form to me.

Declan Quigley and Brian Smith today.

Oh no, they just said Carlton is going to take us through to the finish.

 

[DNP-Old]

This race is total chaos.

There's many action, but doesn't look like a real deal yet to me.

The interesting thing about this racing situation is, due to the break the pack just cannot afford to sit up due to the break. My guess is they will keep attacking even on the flat.

Agree. Not much significant has happened yet. A few big names who clearly have poor legs have been filtered out a bit earlier than they would have been on an easier course. But the peloton is pretty big and with a lot of domestiques still around to control things.

All Caucasians look alike.

 

[Climbing]

Groups is small.

 

[GuyIncognito]

Herrada and Fraile having a casual chat at the front of the pack, 230kms into a world championship

 

[Flamin]

Xandro Meurisse still near the front, very impressive.

 

[Velolover2]

The two Scandies up front still have 2:45. They aren't going to catch them before the hell climb.

 

[webvan]

They probably will but it doesn't really matter.

It's going to get bloody!
Wellens to light it up soon?

They might. I can see some favorites already going all out on the next climb

 

[DNP-Old]

Julian isn't breathing.

Solo from the next climb is legitimately possible.

 

[Poursuivant]

What happened to the time splits they usually do when they cross the line?
