Dwars door Vlaanderen Women 2026, April 1

[Didinho]

No news/timing anymore from the peloton behind G2. Sometimes in those races they suddenly get really close again in the last km’s. But the gap was almost a minute so not counting on it today, just hoping.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

They weren't far from being caught, but now I doubt they will be. SDW should be working, but we know they will attack rather than pull.

 

[JR1012]

Reusser should sit up. Driving Vollering to victory.

 

[Didinho]

Yes it’s over now. Who’s the fastest/strongest after today? Could be a close sprint.

Now the others teammates are working. If they’re helped UAE they would’ve caught them.

 

[Didinho]

Nooijen gave us something. And maybe Vollering lost it there. Reusser played it good and a close win.

Backstedt won the sprint behind. Kopecky didn’t even try today it seems.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Marlen Masterclass.

 

[RedheadDane]

What was that?

 

[JR1012]

LOL. They almost bottled the win.

 

[Didinho]

Eline Jansen another top 10 in 5th.

 

[Rechtschreibfehler]

Cool win for Reusser. Pretty exiting in the end.

 

[Didinho]

Love Marlen’s interview.

 

[JR1012]

After today Reusser and Vollering favorites for Saturday?
Ronde is even harder then today.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Spoiler

Visma again being denied the win in the final meters. They're appear to be at war with Waregem.

Today showed a lack of teamwork in the womens peleton. Alpecin and SDWorx had to ride for Kopecky and Kool. Instead their teamates put in token efforts. I guarantee you that if Paternoster did not puncture, Anderson would have e headed the peleton.

SD Worx are used to other teams being dumb enough to do their work for them / sabotaging themselves by boneheaded tactical decisions / being so completely OP that they can win despite questionable tactics (delete as appropriate)

I think they are not OP anymore. When was the last race post Vollering at SDW where they were sabotaging themselve and looked OP?

Just saw some videos on Sporza where someone is following in the Shimano car. It said there was only 1 team car per team in this race. Some team cars went to the front group so had no help in the peloton, that’s when the Shimano car come to play.

I don’t get this. Isn’t this very unprofessional for a newly WT race? Saw some flat tyres and they had to wait long or keep riding untill a helper next to the road. And race over.
