Vuelta-level TV coverage

 

[Tim Cahill]

It's a good attack from Healy but the parcours makes it difficult to get much separation

 

[Samamba]

Group looks bigger than previous years with 1 lap to go. All about positioning in a bit then.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Matthews about to look incredible in the sprint for 2nd

 

[Didinho]

Who's UAE working for? Hirschi or Wellens?

Good opportunity for a De Lie win, 3 teammates with him.

 

[RedheadDane]

Cosnefroy goes.

 

[Samamba]

Literally the same attack as last year lmao

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Cosnefroy back to looking like prime Gilbert

 

[Didinho]

Déjà vu Benoît.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Literally the same attack as last year lmao

This time he went a climb earlier.

 

[Didinho]

De Lie with 3 bike lenghts please. To make up for Remco.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Corbin Strong in a good position

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Cosnefroy has to be the most weirdly niche rider. Genuinely world class at this kind of race with short hills (see also: Brabantse Pijl, Amstel, Plouay), but throw in cobbles or up the climb length to something more Ardennes-esque and he sinks immediately.

 

[Aimar16]

What a sprint

 

[Didinho]

He made up 10 bike lenghts, fair enough.

 

[RedheadDane]

A strong attack, but De Lie takes it in the end.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

De Lie with 3 bike lenghts please. To make up for Remco.

Wish granted

 

[Samamba]

WTF DID I JUST WITNESS, dude came from position 20

 

[Tim Cahill]

That was a brutally long sprint

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Positioning is overrated...

...if you're De Lie in a pure power sprint.

Also good to see Strong finally getting a big result in a WT race.

 

[Red Rick]

Quebec confired Belgian 1.1 meme race

 

[Didinho]

Wish granted

Was following him the whole sprint, was in 20th or so as they started. What an impressive one, want to see this from the heli.

 

[Samamba]

Positioning is overrated...

...if you're De Lie in a pure power sprint.

This was crazy. Van Gils and Vermeersch tried to get him but it shouldve been way too late.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Cherry juice seems to be in-vogue at the moment, all the kids drinking it at the finish line

It's nicer than beetroot i suppose

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Looks like Masnada finish in the first group.
