Tudor, YES!

 

[Tim Cahill]

Absolutely pissing my sides at the race Christen has ridden so far, it's everything we hoped for and more.

 

[Netserk]

beautiful finish. love it

christen slowed down by his big brain

 

[YavorD]

UAE washed

Not a bad thing with all the sand in the last 2 days.

Christen is the Gaviria of climbers.

The difference is that Gaviria was dominant at Quick-Step, then he became a rider who did things without thinking.
Christen has been like that from the start. He has the legs and the talent, but he lacks the brain.

Seeing how good he was as a junior in mountain biking or cyclocross, it's incredible how tactically inept he is on the road cycling.

Thought higuita was gonna take it and I would have to go fetch the Ian wright YouTube video again

 

[Tim Cahill]

I think Eulalio probably the strongest here, not cagey enough though and underestimated his opponents.

 

[Rou]

The legendary Brit with viking blood Bjorn Koerdt beats pre race favorite Jan Christen.

UAE washed

It's Christen being Christen. It'll be fun at the Giro, poor Almeida

He only acts sensibly when he's Pogacar´s domestique.

 

[Tim Cahill]

That's never, it cannot possibly be Nicolas Vinokurov outsprinting the UAE guys at the finish there.

 

[Cycling111]

A Swiss rider has won, after all, that's what everyone expected .

 

[Cycling111]

Vino points, 3 Astana riders in the top10
This time they've started farming points in the first year

I've got a lot of faith in Nico this year. A bit underrated IMO

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Christen would probably do better if he had the part of his brain responsible for making decisions surgically removed, it would save weight and it can't make his tactics any worse.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

What a disaster for jayco. No rider in the top 10. At least they have a good sprinter who can save their race ...

 

[yaco]

At the end of the day, Double was their rider for GC which was lost yesterday. He was far too impatient and needed to wait for the final km, however, pressure does strange things to teams.

 

[pastronef]

YEESSSS!!! TUDOR! what a ride by Voisard!

 

[Mayomaniac]

I've got a lot of faith in Nico this year. A bit underrated IMO

Tiger Nicor > Christen and Arrieta

Hard crash by 3 riders at almost 100 km/h. Laurenz Rex involved, an important Wolfpack addition for the spring classics. Also Grellier and Stella down. The young UAE-rider was the one who went down first.

Rex was able to finish today's stage. Stella and Grellier abandoned.

 

[Cycling111]

4th Stage.

 

[SafeBet]

Watch out cause mythical Paul Double is about to turn this race around cc @Ilmaestro99

 

[Wvv]

Rex was able to finish today's stage. Stella and Grellier abandoned.

Laurenz Rex update: three fractured spinous processes and out for several weeks. Will probably miss (most) classics. Sad.

So gutted for him. Crossing fingers he will be in shape for chasing the podium in Roubaix.
