77th Dwars door Vlaanderen - A travers la Flandre ME (1.UWT): 29/3

[search]

strange tactics. Road block, attack, road block. Down to a standstill now

 

[Strawberry_Jams]

good racing...good commentators (stephens and lloyd). whats not to like.

 

[Samamba]

Trek being weird

 

[Didinho]

How slow can you go uphill?
Trek: Yes

Trek being weird

i like it

 

[tobydawq]

This seems fairly ridiculous by Trek. Brian Holm doesn't think they will get many fans within the peloton for doing this, and for once I agree with him.

 

[BR2]

How slow can you go uphill?
Trek: Yes

Their smiley while doing that... okay, there's a plan behind it... but what is it...

Eisel saying it's about wind when pushing, and then getting the ones at the back to a standstill...
I still don't get it.

 

[Didinho]

Peloton in pieces again. Strange strategy but it's working.

Apparently Affini riding with self-pumping device in his wheels.

De Lie Ullrich-ing his way to the front.

 

[Samamba]

Not really sure what Trek was/is doing tbh. It's a 10km stretch to the next hill, it will come together again normally.

 

[BR2]

stop showing the breakaway, I am not interested in the break away here

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Merlier down and probably out. Half the peloton held up too...

But not as selective on this climb as the past two years.

 

[KZD]

Big split happening in Berg ten Houte. Merlier crashed and is out of the fight for the race.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Sporza reporting that Kooij is about to abandon, no plan B for Jumbo then. Vanmarcke done too.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Alaph had a a red bull and 4 E's for breakfast it seems

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Kristoff and company should make it into the finale from here...

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Lol.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Well at least the JV guys have some company this time.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Freddy Maertens visibly unimpressed on the roadside

 

[Didinho]

One Jumbo attack is enough these days.

 

[BR2]

very bad coverage, never seem to really be focussed on the right points... and now an interview when the race is getting started?

 

[Tim Cahill]

Where the f did Pidcock come from, haven't seen him all day

 

[tobydawq]

Jumbo attack getting reeled back. My TV must be broken.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Only one hard hill left with Trieu, going to need a big explosion there if this isn't going to be a 2016-style sprint.

 

[Aimar16]

Where the f did Pidcock come from, haven't seen him all day

Didn't the live feed start half an hour ago?

 

[Tim Cahill]

This is quite interesting, seems like Quicksteps internal drama being played out by Alaphilippe here.
