Challenge Mallorca 2025 (January 29 - February 2)

[KZD]

Morgado waiting for the chasing group, good decision.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Finish a few hundred metres steep isn't it? Barrenetxea in prime position if it stays like this but Hirschi hard to beat.

 

[Samamba]

It's probably a really good decision, he can still get top 3 at least like this with a bit of luck. He was gonna get caught anyways.

 

[Rob5091]

Sprint between Hirschi & Ulissi for the win?

 

[Samamba]

Finish a few hundred metres steep isn't it? Barrenetxea in prime position if it stays like this but Hirschi hard to beat.

How can anyone be in prime position but someone else hard to beat?

 

[Rob5091]

Morgado aint no Pogi!

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Big group 1, Henri for the win!

(Okay, Hirschi would probably be more realistic.)

 

[Tim Cahill]

How can anyone be in prime position but someone else hard to beat?

Because he's done little work and Hirschi has been on the front a lot

 

[Samu Cuenca]

No attacks and no one has come back from behind either.

Stork takes off now.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Nice stone buildings, they almost look they were made of cobbles.

 

[Samamba]

Smart move, Storck might be gone

First and 2nd place are gone.
Tudor might actually have bottled it if Marcellusi closes it

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Herr Stork going for the win

 

[Tim Cahill]

Stork getting a nice teammate 5 metres in front as a gift from the race organisers for attacking

 

[Samamba]

Yeah Storck wins.

Also helped by the moto

 

[Squire]

Loving this! Great move by Stork.

 

[Armchair Cyclist]

Stork delivers.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Red Bull gives Stork wings.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Well that makes for a nice change from the big teams and expected names winning everything. As unlikely a top two that isn't from the break as you'll see all year.

 

[Rob5091]

I guessed Stork would go first but only to set up Hirschi. Chapeau for the win! Did the chasers mess it up?

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Congrats, Stork!

Nice that riders from other teams are congratulating him also.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Seen some who don't think races before late February count, just look at his face.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

FLORIAN STORK WHAT A WIN.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Shades of Vincnenzo nibali really. Showed the uae mob gangsters how to win a bike race in style. I hope this guy's makes it to the top, struggled for several years

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Nice top 10 for Henri Vandenabeele, now that I know a little bit more about him thanks to Samamba.

 

[Samamba]

Aranburu probably already regrets his transfer
