Challenge Ciclista Mallorca 2026 (January 28 - February 1)

[Netserk]

can we get a single race where riders have the discipline to stay on the wheel and not pull please

 

[Cycling111]

On the flat

And Hilly.

I was talking about a hypothetical sprint finish.

 

[Salvarani]

Yes Rondel!!

Cmon

 

[red_flanders]

I know the organizers want Remco to win but come on..

Yeah. It's a conspiracy.

Definitely not something that happens in every race.

Rondel is hardly Pedersen is he

 

[Cycling111]

20 second penalty.

Like in Rwanda? 🤭

 

[Salvarani]

The motos are being ridiculous

 

[Rou]

Yeah. It's a conspiracy.

Definitely not something that happens in every race.

It happens of course which doesn't make it any better

 

[AmRacer]

Yeah. It's a conspiracy.

Definitely not something that happens in every race.

So that's why he wins, when he does.

 

[RedheadDane]

Well, that was the most... subtle... 1 K to go banner I've ever seen.

 

[Berniece]

Rondel finished at 20s, those few meters motorpacing didn't make a difference

 

[Salvarani]

Nasty win with the motos infront for the whole climb

 

[Rou]

Rondel finished at 20s, those few meters motorpacing didn't make a difference

Come on now. It makes a huge difference. When you snap the elastic and spend more energy to claw back.

It made the whole difference and some.

 

[Andre]

Remco Campeon

 

[Salvarani]

The photo bike came up and took more pictures as soon as Rondel was getting close a couple of times, lol

 

[red_flanders]

It happens of course which doesn't make it any better

Well that's a really different conversation than saying the race is being fixed, isn't it.

 

[houtdffan]

as I said, Remco could have smoked a whole pack of cigs today and still won.

He will need to be better to win the UAE Tour, however

 

[Cycling111]

It seems that Van Gils is back to his best form and that Bora could achieve multiple podiums in some races.

 

[Rou]

When Pog gets towed at AGR and at a random Italian farmers' race it is just as ugly.

Well that's a really different conversation than saying the race is being fixed, isn't it.

[Didinho]

Is it so difficult to take pictures or film from the other side of the riders? Can’t they make it a rule.

Solid effort from Rondel. Also Van Gils had something left in the end.

 

[ingsve]

Movistar had 2 riders in the group of 9 and finish 8-9. That has to be a failure regardless of who the riders are.

 

[KZD]

Great start of the season for Remco with 3 wins in his 3 first race days for Red Bull.

Rondel with an impressive performance and Morgado again finishing with the best, this time 4th.

 

[Berniece]

Come on now. It makes a huge difference. When you snap the elastic and spend more energy to claw back.

Motopacing makes a difference, but based on the 20s difference at the finish it doesn’t matter. He would’ve been dropped anyway
