2025 WC: Thread for all the women's races + Mixed Relay

[Samu Cuenca]

Not wanting to risk losing to PFP may have been the Dutch tactic. I'm sure Demi would be fine with that, too.

 

[Peyroteo94]

I believe if we put all dutch riders riding alone from an independent country and one of them would win.

And/or finishing ahead of van der Breggen.

 

[Andy262]

Let there be Rabofail

 

[Ilmaestro99]

If we pretend that PFP is a certain slovenian villain we can't name, and that the Dutch women team is the Belgian men's team, then I think their tactics are actually quite admirable.

 

[Netserk]

France dropped the ball even harder with Muzic so bad.

 

[Didinho]

The only explanation I got is that Ten Dam got the men’s stage profile and he thinks it’s another 10 laps or so.

Or if Markus wins this, I’m done with cycling.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Be quite funny if Markus comes back and wins now

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Despite the cobbles, the strongest climbers in the break (Muzic excepted) are the ones that got away, especially now Niedermaier has bridged.

Idunno, building your strategy around defeating B*rut B*žič seems a bit overkill.

 

[Andy262]

Garcia looks a bit cooked tbh. Fisher Black needs to push on.

 

[Samamba]

At least The Netherlands can still win technically

 

[Tim Cahill]

Coming down a bit, maybe Muzic will drop back

Hopefully he hasn't mistook it for Unbound.

 

[Andy262]

The three at the front really shouldn’t have opened the door again. Crazy.

 

[Samamba]

Maybe it's not over yet

Reusser impressive, still some teammates in between too.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Ten dam been smoking ttoo much weed again

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Reusser on the move

 

[Didinho]

Okay if someone can do it it’s Reusser.

One minute gap.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Robo Reusser goes for it.

 

[Monsi]

Less than 1 minute. Still possible

 

[Tim Cahill]

Caluori I think still in the middle

 

[JR1012]

They let Reusser attack and no one followed, really?

 

[Red Rick]

Vollering quite clearly doesn't have it.

 

[Unchained]

So peleton gave up?

I don't know exactly the formula but they keep pushing a huge gear up the climb and look really flat and listless after.. Nobody really looks motivated to chase..
This looks like an excellent move by front 5
