That sprint was sick. Really impressive to be able to sprint for 300 metres after such a hard-ridden climb. He didn't have to sit down once in 30 seconds whereas Remco was in all sorts of trouble when he realised he had a battle.

Thanks!
Martinez was closing gaps in the crosswind as well. Then Evenepoel launched and Martinez cleaned him off his back wheel instantly
Oh, Dani boy! Great ride, today on stage 2 of the Algarve. Impressive burst, as Remco is no slouch at these kinds of finishes, now.
Guy had some gas today!! Remco trying to get close enough to yell " don't you know who I am!!? " Martinez wicked it up and no looking back
Bodes well, but early; for Bora GT battles to come.
Well deserved. First big race and Martinez showed again Remco is human
Showing last year was an aberration, really making it tough for Bora to decide the 2nd leader behind Roglic at the Tour.
No.
Martinez will ride the Giro, and Hindley is still a far better GT rider than Dani.
Good point and you thought all the drama of the Jumbo Visma 3 Musketeers was going to die down, and now Bora can't figure out if they should wear a Red Bull kit or who the captain is going to be.. we will see some Roglic results shortly but Martinez did it all, flat, uphill, powerful and smart, maybe one of the two will do something decisive.. February is too early.. But I am impressed, if you beat Remco in a drag race I am impressed
If vlasov wont ride then there won't be problems within team
I landed on the first page because I hadn't read this thread in while. This post was obviously a joke at the time, but now it's a sad read, considering how his career came to an end last year.
So far, so good. Let's keep the consistency Dani. I am very happy for him. I hope that he breaks through in GT's finally.
A few warm spring days could mess with him, he has a history of having to deal with allergies at this time of the year.
So Bora to start defending second place at Giro or to start plotting for a GT triple this season?
I'm sure Gamper, Mullen and Koch can really put Pog in the hurt locker on the climbs.
So far Aleotti has overperformed, but you're right. With Lipo out of the race they really could have used someone like Buchmann.
Schachmann and Aleotti are good riders for the medium mountains, but no mountain goats...
