Amstel Gold Race: April 21st, 2019

[Red Rick]

What is this race

 

[Mavic]

Well, at least Mathieu sparked some actual racing now.

 

[Velolover2]

Repeat of Strade?

 

[Red Rick]

Alaphilippe wants to drop the Flandriens here.

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Strade Bianche. Where's Van Aert?

 

[Mavic]

DCQ in a very good position now. Gilbert and co don't have to chase and if the others do then Gilbert will grab his chance.

Looks like it

 

[Simurgh]

Sagan doesn't have it today

 

[fuiers]

Just came from work. What did I miss except Sagan not being there again.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

If MvdP had made the rookie move
he could've followed Ala & Fulgsang

 

[Salvarani]

Sagan is not good today

Re: Re:

If Jakob wants to win it, he has to do less work than he did in Strade.

Make Ala work for his lead.

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Man, this is really far from the finish, for everything to break up.

This might become an epic race.

 

[Simurgh]

Just came from work. What did I miss except Sagan not being there again.

Van der Poel attacked a couple of minutes ago, then reeled in, and now Alaphilippe and Fuglsang at the front.

 

[Salvarani]

Lol, who is gonna do the work in the group behind?

 

[Mavic]

Re:

It doesn't look like it's a decisive split, though. Only 10 seconds I think.

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Bora will have to tale responsibility in the peloton

That should be 10 to Woods, Kwia, and Trentin. The field should be further back

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

44 seconds

I see. I'm just glad we have some excitement regardless.

 

[tomorrow]

why the hell eurosport think we want to watch highlights from last years vuelta?

 

[Velolover2]

This has become a cobbled classics based on the way it's raced.

 

[Billie]

Valverde not even in that bigger chasing group

 

[jaylew]

I guess the question is who has teammates left in the group to chase? Do MVP, Valverde, Wellens, and GVA have any teammates to work?

Wellens has 2 teammates (Lambrecht, Vanendert), but i think Wellens isn't there himself, lol.
