Re:

Did Kwiat really need to do this?

Yeah, why not?

 

[TommyGun]

both are similing in front... thinking about the good trick they played the others! I love it

 

[sir fly]

Phil's usually faster, but Kwiatko looks better and has good technique.

Rojas was a real idiot when Gilbert established a gap. He should've jumped on the wheel or at least tried to shut the gap, but instead looked around expecting others to shut it down.

Great race!
Cant choose between these 2

 

[Irondan]

Let's go Phil!

He needed to get rid of the dead weight.

A racist and an actual fascist in the winning group.

Please try not to be any more stupid than you really have to be.

Rojas the king of anti-cycling. Please retire.

Re:

Not a big fan of the new finish. Looks like a guaranteed mass sprint between the punchy sprinters. GVA for the win, depending on his recovery from Sunday. Otherwise Matthews or Colbrelli.

I hope Gilbert, Kwiato, Alaphilippe and Valverde try to blow the race apart a bit before the finish, in which case we could have a good race. I don't think they have a chance of winning it from a bunch sprint against the guys mentioned above with Cauberg being so far from the finish. Geulhemmerberg and Bemelerberg don't look selective enough.

I love the new finish. This has been the best edition of this race in years and years.

Chapeau!

 

[carolina]

Amazing!

 

[Billie]

incredible sprint

 

[The Barb]

OMG horrendous by Kwiatkowski.

 

[Irondan]

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh what a sprint by Gilbert!!!

 

[Akuryo]

WOW, Gilbert is in insane form this year!

 

[El Pistolero]

*** YEAH!

Kwiatko tried to do the same little trick with Gilbert as he did with Sagan in MSR, but Gilbert is a more experienced and stronger rider than Sagan.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Great edition. Congrats to Gilbert.

 

[dacooley]

yeee boi! great win by phil!!!

 

[Brullnux]

Kwiatkowski did a Sagan

 

[TommyGun]
