Pogacar needs to be worried about 80 dudes and identity theft

 

[Tim Cahill]

He wasn't interested today. He didn't even try.

Thought he was in the group 10 seconds behind a Remco Evenepoel attack did he?

He was! It wasn't a joke.

It‘s as funny as being dropped on Tiegemberg though

 

[Devil's Elbow]

I also doubt Van der Poel will actually do Liège after this showing.

Trump will be wearing a Pogacar hat at Liege

Pidcock clearly didn't hear about the women's race.

Yeh, he should have done a few more revolutions just to be sure!

 

[fbjim]

it would be an ill-advised idea to write off VDP for Liege just because he was not in form for noted mickey-mouse "classic" Amstel Gold, IMO.

 

[Froome]

He didn't even contested the final sprint.

Vdp has crushed it and digged deep since E3 its only natural to be on the way down. Liege Pog is ofcourse not afraid of Vdp. He reins the cobbles and the time betwen em all are to long to be at ur best too i think thats clear from today that Vdp is getting tired too.

Which noone can hold against him with those performances of the ages.

He wasn't interested today. He didn't even try.

Training ride today. He knows Liege is where he needs to be sharp again, so he just Zone 2'd it today.

 

[velaso montador]

Otherwice I will highligt Jan Christen today what a good ride from the 19 year old and also Hirschi looked stellar hopefully for him hes on hes way back to something serious which from today it looks like it for now atleast.

Lovely Gold Race. Different riders fighting for the win compared to previous classics, and finally some suspense until the finish. Pidcock is a deserving winner, kudos to the other ones up front as well.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Pidcock not even pretending to like the beer

 

[Eddy Evenepoel]

Leknessund 26th.

Beating other pre race favorites like Jorgenson and Carapaz. Just behind the big favorite VDP. Well done.

 

[Tim Cahill]

If he wasn't trying he would've/should've let Hermans/Kragh go for their own results, instead of having them pacing.

Pidcock lost the beer race
on the podium

 

[DNP-Old]

I’ve had more fun today than in all of De Ronde and Roubaix combined. I’m even anticipating more fun on Wednesday than in either those or Liege, which is going to be boring af.

Tbh, everyone who drinks Amstel loses.

After RVV and PR its no wonder MVDP is tired ...any one would be ...proves he is human

as for Pidcok anyone who thinks he is over rated doesn't know his onions

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Pre-race favorite Fuglsang in 76th while Max Schachmann wasn‘t even the best German Max in this race

[Anderis]

Glad to see Pidcock win. There's no other rider I've read more *** about in the last 12 months.

 

[Valv.Piti]

Best classic since Gent-Wevelgem, what are you on about?

Fair enough, I thought it was rather boring.

Fuglsang / What happened to him in recent years

He is 39 years old op
