84th Gent-Wevelgem: 27 March, 2022

[Netserk]

Quick-Step start pulling.

 

[Salvarani]

Steppers now.

 

[Velolover2]

Girmay is going to win this isn't he

On paper he is the fastest but I don't think the others are treating him as such.

 

[Salvarani]

Im thinking Styuven.

 

[Valv.Piti]

Go on Biniam!

 

[Eclipse]

Finally a bit of concerted organisation in the chase group

 

[Devil's Elbow]

If Laporte can help enable a first African big classic victory here he will truly be The Greatest.

 

[Peyroteo94]

This van gestel is a good sprinter?

 

[Alexandre B.]

Let's see the extent of Laporte's generosity.

 

[fbjim]

i have certain concerns about what the peloton is doing

 

[Ilmaestro99]

When will Campenaerts attack next

 

[Velolover2]

I feel like the Danes (Asgreen, Kragh, Pedersen) messed this up by relying too much of the Jumbo riders' work.

It would still have been easier to win from a group of 7-8 riders.

 

[Netserk]

Generous or greedy, that is the question today.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

This van gestel is a good sprinter?

Finished ahead of Laporte in the sprint in Kuurne, have a hard time seeing him beat all three of his companions in this group though.

 

[postmanhat]

De Lie isn't there. They also aren't pulling. 4 guys no sprinter.

I mistook whatever Campanaerts was doing, for some sort of tactic.

 

[Netserk]

When will Küng wave the moto away again?

 

[Salvarani]

They need more riders and shorter turns to bring this back.

 

[Jumbo Visma Fan :)]

Finished ahead of Laporte in the sprint in Kuurne, have a hard time seeing him beat all three of his companions in this group though.

It’s very unlikely he does beat all of them, but I think he’ll get a podium spot.

 

[AlfaLum]

Finished ahead of Laporte in the sprint in Kuurne, have a hard time seeing him beat all three of his companions in this group though.

Laporte didn’t really contest the sprint there though..

 

[Ilmaestro99]

What makes Campanaerts tactic so funny, is that he has a YouTube channel where he sometimes explains his tactics after the races

 

[jfazendeiro]

This van gestel is a good sprinter?

Above average at least but he's the slowest in this group imo.

 

[fbjim]

OK Movistar are pushing the peloton in a Belgian race, I'm calling this a lost cause for the main group

 

[Velolover2]

It's too late.

Many knuckleheads who lost today by only marking Wout Van Aert.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Stuyven the most experience, Laporte the strongest, Ghimay the fastest, and Van gestalt the dark horse

 

[Salvarani]

Could still be close...
