2021 World Championships in Flanders: Road Races

[trevim]

I think it's obvious he isn't at his very best. He doesn't usually ride nearly this conservatively.

Probably but I can't understand hiding in a group all day in a one day race. Specially for someone who doesn't care that much for placings

 

[Devil's Elbow]

This has to be a race for silver now. Alaphilippe doing back-to-back world titles on such different routes is already one of the achievements of the decade, it has to be said.

 

[Rackham]

Let the Italians work. Win the sprint against Colbrelli.

Just as I said, WvA won't win this.

 

[Hugo Koblet]

This clown is an absolute showman. I prefer him 10 times more than Van Aert. He's such a cool rider. Never seen a rider attacking as much as him.

Definitely agree with this! Van Aert is probably the best rider in the world, but he's quite a boring rider.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Remco burnt himself for this?

 

[titan31]

I know the French won't work in that group but you'd think likes of Pidcock, Hoelgaard, Stybar would be trying for a medal at least.

 

[Gigs_98]

Alaphilippe has it. Really didn't think he would have it on this course, but damn has he proven me wrong. Fantastic race

 

[Breezy1985]

Stick out your tongue Ala it makes you go faster

 

[RedheadDane]

Looking good for Alaphilippe.

 

[Danskebjerge]

I can't remember a better Worlds than this

I still think Harrogate was better because it was so brutal.

 

[Salvarani]

Congratulations to Ala!

 

[Volderke]

It’s time for WvA to go for silver.

 

[Poursuivant]

A very worthy world champion

 

[Tim Cahill]

Should've just let Remco have a crack

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Remco burnt himself for this?

Wout rode like a Movistar leader in the days of the triple threat, burn all the matches all day then get dropped when it matters and leave a less heralded teammate to salvage something.

 

[PinotZakarin]

Tremendous race
Tremendous winner

 

[bigcog]

Those fans are a bunch of anchors ...

 

[Poursuivant]

What’s with the boos? Weak

 

[rghysens]

I can't remember a better Worlds than this

This.
We've had countless of WC with way harder courses, but god, were they boring...

 

[Breezy1985]

Just don't do a Dan Martin Ala

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Pidcock has left it way too late with these legs.

 

[Climbing]

Good, at least for the belgian fan idiots

 

[SarahtheDane]

Go Valgren!

 

[TourOfSardinia]

motopacing or what?

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Good, at least for the belgian fan idiots
