64th E3 Saxo Bank Classic: 25 March, 2022

[AlfaLum]

With the exception of Sanremo and maybe the final stage of Paris-Nice, any race featuring either the Jumbo A-team or Pogacar has been one-sided as hell this year. It isn't nihilism when it's the norm.

If we still have to draw the same conclusion after Liege than I will join your squad. Now it is a bit too early for me.

 

[JosefK]

They should sprint for it to make it a bit more exciting. Not gonnaaaa happen.

I expect LaPorte to give Wout a pat on the back after the flame rouge . . . and then sprint by him at the finish.

 

[Red Rick]

It's nihilism when you must moan about it all the time and assume that this will keep on for ever and ever.

I think you need to look up the difference between pessimism and nihilism

 

[SafeBet]

How far is the peloton from the chasing group?

I think you need to look up the difference between pessimism and nihilism

Maybe I do.

Sporza interviewing Jumbo DS live in the race on the motobike

Vam der Sande broken elbow most likely elbow break, wouldnt say whos gonna win

As if it isn't going to be Wout.

 

[tobydawq]

By the way, imagine what Jumbo could have done today if they had opted for aero helmets.

 

[Netserk]

How far is the peloton from the chasing group?

Too far.

 

[Andre]

I think you need to look up the difference between pessimism and nihilism

...and also "existentialism"

 

[JosefK]

Too far.

The towel has been thrown in.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Half expecting this race to end with Laporte and Van Aert crossing the line hugging each other like Carapaz and Kwiatkowski in that Tour stage, just to twist the knife.

 

[Velolover2]

One of each from Ineos and FDJ should have sat up long ago and trying to get 3rd.

 

[jaylew]

Emptying their pockets? Don't tell me they're actually going to sprint this out. Ok, I seriously doubt that but I'd love to see it.

 

[Netserk]

Who is desperate enough to be the one to start the attacks for third? I think they'll wait until ~3 km to go for the chase, maybe until the kite.

 

[Netserk]

Who is desperate enough to be the one to start the attacks for third?

Küng, of course.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Kinda hope Benoot takes 3rd for the comedy

 

[Lequack]

Laporte attacks!

 

[Lequack]

Laporte attacks!

Just kidding.

 

[jaylew]

We're probably going to miss the winning bronze move because the camera will focus on Wout and Laporte.

Whew, guess not.

 

[Escarabajo]

Who won???/

 

[RedheadDane]

Photo finish!

Banzai!

 

[Velolover2]

Wout wins.

 

[Netserk]

We're probably going to miss the winning move because the camera will focus on Wout and Laporte.

There's plenty of time.

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

One of these days one of these stupid super team hugfests will end up with the wrong guy accidentally winning
