Challenge Ciclista Mallorca 2026 (January 28 - February 1)

[AmRacer]

No clue, didn’t watch.

Just think it’s…interesting to suggest it would have been “embarrassing“ not to win his 3rd race in a row, in what’s basically a training camp in January. This is a rider planning to peak in …July.

He will peak after the next altitude camp. And again after next altitude camp after a few races. And so on. If he stays healthy and don't crash.

Just a quick heads-up:
The race is earlier than the other days.

 

[Cycling111]

There's a breakaway by a single rider, and another solo rider has a short gap.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

so everyone feels like being being able to beat Dylan today. Good luck methinks.
edit: well, not everybody......

 

[Samamba]

Unibet tactically outclassing every other team here, they have the sprint favorite, but still put someone in a strong break. They will have their full train left why other teams have sacrificed riders.

Also moto in front of peloton is gone now, and they can't come a second closer anymore as the front group still has their moto.

 

[Samamba]

Herregodts way stronger than the others. And Johanninck killing the break now.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Well done Herregodts, but here comes the peloton for the final sprint.

Nice cathedral in the background, btw., and palm trees, palm trees everywhere

 

[Berniece]

Silly crash

 

[Salvarani]

Hobbs crashed for EF

 

[Berniece]

Nice one for Arne Marit

 

[RedheadDane]

Who needs Evenepoel?

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Well done Marit and RBH!

 

[Salvarani]

Marit who said he was gonna do lead-out

He said screw that lol

 

[Salvarani]

Kanter must be close to some kind of record for 2nd places as well

 

[Samamba]

Marit who said he was gonna do lead-out

He said screw that lol

Why tf would Marit do the leadout? No way anyone believed that.

 

[Cycling111]

Magagnotti (Bora) third.

 

[Salvarani]

Why tf would Marit do the leadout? No way anyone believed that.

He said so in pre-race interview and seemed a bit annoyed about it.

Hilarious that he made his own sprint and won. Magagnotti got 3rd, despite not being lead-out as Marit did his own sprint.

But they seemed pretty relaxed and smiling afterwards.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Magagnotti (Bora) third.

Well done by the youngster, I think it's his first podium in the big leagues.

 

[Berniece]

Why tf would Marit do the leadout? No way anyone believed that.

That was the plan. He said the same in his post-race interview

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Mallorca should change its name to BORA BORA.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Just checked TNT to see when the Mallorca race was starting

*** sake

 

[RedheadDane]

Mallorca should change its name to BORA BORA.

No, BORA BORA BORA BORA.

 

[SafeBet]

Well done by the youngster, I think it's his first podium in the big leagues.

Yep, it's also his first race in the big leagues.

 

[Samamba]

That was the plan. He said the same in his post-race interview

I don't believe it for a second

And if that actually was the plan, Red Bull DS should be ashamed of himself.

We almost witnessed a bird attack, but this bird from Mallorca doesn't have the aim of Australian birds.
