2025 National Championships

[ingsve]

Norway with 3 laps to go. 6 Uno-X in front THJ, AHJ, Tiller, Hoelgaard, Leknessund and Dversnes. Followed 1 minute down by 3 more Uno-X, Kulset, Fredheim and Löland. Next group at 2:30 minutes.

Looking like the biggest Uno-X clean sweep yet in the Norwegian Nationals. 4 of the front 6 going to TdF so I wonder if they'll just give it to someone who will ride there.

Zimmermann! German champs jersey at Wanty, cool!

 

[Boehmand]

Mads P taking silver convinsingly and appears even happier than Kragh with his friends win.

Casper Pedersen takes bronze.

Philipsen outsprints Breiner for 4th

 

[RedheadDane]

You've been watching GB for a while, any idea how many more kms to go, even just a rough guesstimate?

70ish KS to go?

1. Kragh
2. Pedersen
3. Pedersen
4. Withen
5. Breiner (who's also called Pedersen...)
6. Asgreen
7. Søjberg (yet another Pedersen)
8. Bévort
9. Johansen
10. Larsen

Kragh getting emotional.

 

[Unterlenkerfahrend]

Zimmermann with a Valverde special lmao.
Rode like a rat, skipping a billion of turns and then was the only one to be able to close down Engelhardts attack. Almost hid too much at the end of the group when the move happened.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Impressive that Godon and Wellens managed to cross the line in exactly the same second (at least on my screens). Good thing not both of them were a sprint.

I hope you had your cameras set up correctly so we can determine the winner.

Congratulations to Kragh. The Albert-Alberte championship combo will have to happen some other time.

Easy to say now, of course, but I Engelhardt has completely lost his sprint over the past year or two. In Giro stage 1 for example there were like three sprinters left, and he finished 14th.

 

[Boehmand]

Kragh is now hit with emotion in the finish line interview - he is in tears and calls it the biggest win in his career, after a terrible spring with his new team.

 

[Filippo_3467]

Best german championship I remember. Zimmermann seems to be in top shape for the Tour. Engelhardt getting back to his best shape. Schiffer great, Kämna looks like his own self. Stork and Buchmann also with a great race. That was a real fight.

 

[Cycling111]

Balderstone's (Caja Rural) ITT in Spain.

In Italy, a club has won, and in Austria, a team called Tirol has beaten UAE, Soudal, Alpecin, and Bora.

Many surprises in these nationals.

Tbf he was in the lead group until his mechanical with 80 k to go and then had to organise the chase behind with Rutsch

Englehardt had to slow down and make Zimmerman come to the front even if allowed the following two to come back for the final.

 

[RedheadDane]

SKA has beaten 3 Pedersen. LOL.

Four. Defending Champion Søjberg was 7th.

Wellens who couldn't handle the heat prior to joining UAE is now better than Evenepoel in a 40 km time trial in 32 degrees Celsius after a gruelling 190 km race? UAE will make a complete joke of the TdF.

Not just not handling, heat allergy...

 

[Danskebjerge]

Another bad Cort performance in a one day race. I thought he had improved in this discipline after his top 10's in this spring. But today was a set back. Perhaps it's a sign that he's still in relatively bad shape as he was after the classics. It could become a long Tour for him.

You are forgetting Martin Pedersen and Carl Emil Just Pedersen - so he beat 6 😛

Wellens didn't beat Remco in a 40km time trial. Did you see the race to say that?

Philipsen conditioned Remco too much.
Aside from the fact that Remco spent the previous kilometers pulling the group. And he crashed before.
By the way, Wellens had a little help from the moto

Don't just have to look at the result or final kilometers to interpret a race.
