I really hope GVA takes this

Bettiol seems very cool tactically.

If he has legs, he'll take it.

 

[drebelo]

Bettiol going to CCC next season

Re:

[Red Rick]

Laaaaame

 

[Salvarani]

Haha Stybar

good sprint

 

[Stella0596]

Ugh now Lefevere was right... I hate it

 

[Vesica]

bleh anti-climax

 

[Flamin]

Tactically perfect race from QS but *** this.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

bah wolf pack

 

[Broccolidwarf]

- and DQ/Astana trading punches continues

 

[RedheadDane]

So... one rider (Terpstra) leaves, another (Stybar) steps-up.

 

[Pricey_sky]

Gear sprint by stybar, perfectly played once more by DQS, too easy.

 

[jaylew]

Good for Stybar but I'm sooo tired of QS winning everything. Why on earth did GVA lead out the sprint?

 

[sir fly]

Štyby wins..
Congrats.

Strong sprint by Štybar, but GVA left the strongest impression.

Excellent race.

Re: Re:

look at the gear sagan was riding, he had maybe twice the frequency of pedaling to others in the group, good training though

Not sure why that would have been a problem when he got dropped on the climb.

because when there is an attack like the one from GVA, the riders go on higher gear actually to gain speed, and with lower gear, you can't follow, sagan was looking down like he head a flat

Oh please, gtfo please

even at the finish, that was not sweaty spent sagan face

Normally he's very good at long sprints, but he had spent too much energy before, I guess.

 

[krakenKE]

Great race, happy that Zdenek starts to pick more wins.

 

[jaylew]

Great tactics from QS once again. Despite his two late attacks, no real shock that Stybar won that having been able to sit on for so long.

Re:

This year its Stybar year, last year it was terpstra, the one before Gilbert. The question now is, who will be let go eventualy next sunday. Stybar or Lampaert?

 

[DFA123]

Shame about the result, but good to see GVA and Van Aert taking huge pulls to close a big gap, rather than more of the weak half-efforts everyone was doing in the classics last year. It bodes well for the upcoming races; at least they forced QST to actually earn the win today.

 

[Scarponi]

I wish I accidentally put a 100 on Stybar tonight

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Like i said, Stybar was laughing his ass off.

Forgot to get drunk?

Yep, Jungels deserves a half share of that win.
