2021 World Championships in Flanders: Road Races

[Mick Dundee]

Pidcock gonna be very disappointed

 

[RedheadDane]

Deserved winner.

 

[Netserk]

Stuyven 4th?! LOL

 

[F_Cance]

so sad that stuyven is not on the podium.

 

[jaylew]

No medal for Belgium

 

[burning]

What a complete disaster by Belgians, ouch

 

[Kangaridoo]

Pretty much the only WC champion I didn't hope for. Looking forward to see him clown around in Tdf again.

But fully deserved.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Julian - wooooooooo!

 

[bigcog]

Van Barle with silver ? Pidcock too little too late..

 

[Leinster]

Fair play Pidcock getting back for 6th. And a great ride by Powless.

Big hug for the champ from Stybar!

 

[Danskebjerge]

A really bad race for the Danes, saved by Valgren who was without team mates for the last 60 km.

Belgofail

Well done to France, attacking tactics, beautifully executed

 

[F_Cance]

should have saved stuyven instead of closing 3-4 gaps for van aert. Was easy to see that he is not good enough today.

 

[ChewbaccaDefense]

No medals for Belgium, well deserved

 

[Rackham]

No medal for Belgium

They deserved this result.

 

[SKSemtex]

He is simply the best. Congrats.

 

[Rollthedice]

All hail King Julien

Chapeau mon ami

The one from Penguins of Madagascar? Exceptional ride. One for the history.

 

[wheresmybrakes]

I think all the Belgium riders should be made to wear Movistar jerseys for the year.

 

[JosefK]

What a complete disaster by Belgians, ouch

Horner will need time to recover from his spasms of ecstasy.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Evenepoel being sacrificed completely looks even worse in retrospect.

 

[Danskebjerge]

Van Baarle was probably the one who did the least work in the chase. So that explains his good sprint?

 

[Carols]

All hail Ala, definately the strongest man. What a shame Evenpoel and Styven got used up and WVA had Nothing Congrats France and Ala!

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Belgium win the great venue prize.

 

[Red Rick]

Tactical disasterclass by the Belgians. But Van Aert was in the end just not close to good enough.

3rd peak in a year and he basically peaked too early for that.

Great show by the "home of cycling" fans by booeing the World Champion.

Biggest news for me today is that Alaphilippe stole Gallopin's girlfriend.
