Vuelta a España 2022 Vuelta a España stage 4(Vitoria-Gastiez-Lagaurdia),152.5 km, Hilly

[RedheadDane]

Roglstomp.
Mads P. second, again.

 

[spalco]

Easy Roglstomp, well done.

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Wow, Pedersen, that was impressive!

 

[tobydawq]

Why exactly did he have to take that stage?

Uh?

 

[TourOfSardinia]

S t o m p

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Happy to see roglic win after the summer he had so far

 

[ice&fire]

Why exactly did he have to take that stage?

Same reason he took the last KOM sprint: bonus seconds.

 

[Lequack]

Roglic great win, he was almost knocked off his bike like twice.

 

[Inquitus]

Roglic, too easy, well done that man!

 

[Red Rick]

I guess the hype was real afterall. Mads Pedersen, that was pretty insane

Pedersen and Mas on the same podium like wtf

 

[Sciatic]

Nice smile from Roglic—looks relaxed.

 

[tobydawq]

I simply asked why him getting dropped automatically means he has to be sick.

Because his normal level is much, much higher than that?

What on Earth is there to misunderstand here?

 

[VayaVayaVaya]

That was stressful to watch. Pure chaos going up that final climb. Shocked no one fell.

 

[JosefK]

Roglstomp confirmed. Mads impressive.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Roglstomp.
Mads P. second, again.

He's the new Van Aert.

Perhaps he should have let López go, but he was obviously never going to do that.

 

[tobydawq]

That was stressful to watch. Pure chaos going up that final climb. Shocked no one fell.

Why would they fall at 20 kph.

 

[wheresmybrakes]

Surely there were gaps?

Edit. They must want to keep the race close whilst it's early.

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Because his normal level is much, much higher than that?

What on Earth is there to misunderstand here?

He's 19, the A-tier races he has done with the pro's are few. Maybe he peaked early in the year for Catalunya and Romandie. He was nowhere in CSS either. What exactly is there to misunderstand here?

 

[movingtarget]

Dominant sprint. Perfect position.

 

[Lequack]

 

[spalco]

The power of Roglic on climbs like this is deeply impressive.

 

[StryderHells]

Why would they fall at 20 kph.

Why wouldn’t they? You get bumped at almost any speed and you can fall.

 

[Eclipse]

I think the most exciting thing here was seeing Mas in contention.

Not a finish I'd have fancied him on and maybe he can finally be a protagonist in the GC here.

 

[Moondance]

Great stuff from Roglic. Surprised he didn't have anyone from TJV to pilot him in the last KM. Looked like he was boxed in a couple times. Kuss and Gesink just out of it?

 

[tobydawq]

Mads was asked by the journalist if it was alright to congratulate him with the second place. He said, yes, today it's alright, the other two days, I would have probably kicked you in the nuts if you had congratulated me.
