SKY on the way to narrowly get Ctalunya stage (Poels attacked from a breakaway)

Re: Re:

Sagan annihilating the Steppers. They are the sky bots for the classics, after all. At least Froome races differently than Styby.

When did Froome ever attack before the last climb? (I'm a classics guy, so I might be wrong on this one)

Attacking on the last climb is more than many do.

This is why I'm a classics guy. Still 30k to go, and we've already seen a great race

You never saw Stybar attacking alone before the last 500m.

Have you seen Tirreno this year?

Who cares about that?

 

[Jspear]

The gap is growing a little

 

[More Strides than Rides]

almost 30" now.

 

[woodburn]

Very poor. Very poor.

What a stupid move from Sagan it was. He should have kept trolling on the beck of the group.
Burning matches for nothing.

The way he's been sprinting, he wouldn't have beat Cancellara flat out.

He's an attacker now. Not a sprinter

Judging from what? His sprint 3 weeks ago? I have no idea how good his sprint is in this stage of the season but I am sure he is better sprinter then TTist.

Misstep getting absolutely rinsed lmao

 

[Gigs_98]

I'm honest, I hoped for Cancellara to win this race, but I definitely wont complain about Sagan vs. Kwiat. Moreover watching Etixx failing is always very amusing

Yes. You remembered the one time he did. Still never tried to win the race.

New school world champ duo smashing it

This feels so good to see.

 

[trucido]

Dang I should have put some money on 2agan for his customary placing.

 

[Flamin]

Sagan got this.

What's in catalunya and how is Messi doing?

 

[Vroome.exe]

LOL how are etixx failing if they are just not strong enough

 

[carolina]

it seems sagan is learning when to attack. let's see if he'll have the strength to beat kwiat in the sprint

 

[Cance > TheRest]

I'm honest, I hoped for Cancellara to win this race, but I definitely wont complain about Sagan vs. Kwiat. Moreover watching Etixx failing is always very amusing

+ Fabian showed he is the strongest for Flanders. This has turned out to be a pretty good race

 

[pedromiguelmartins]

Re:

Too soon for this. It all depends on Sagan's shape, otherwise it can be like Strade in 2014.

 

[rehy90]

ettix are so afraid of cancellara, its funny

Yes, but also comparing his 2016 sprint in MSR to previous years

He can power on his own/on the front just fine. (In fact, he has several good TT results to his name).

His shape is great, anyone can see that.

 

[pedromiguelmartins]

Eurosport 1 HD. Yes.

Vroome: Ettix aren't strong now because they burned themselves trying to make Fabian lose instead of trying to win.

Flamin: What is Peter's weight? Why does he look like 2x bigger than Kwiat?

 

[Jspear]

COMMERCIAL!!

 

[Vroome.exe]

Oh btw stybar doing all the work, wheelsucker, remember?

 

[Gigs_98]

Etixx has 4 riders in a group of I think less than 15 and they seriously want someone else to work. They should just spend two of their riders now and let the other two attack. However tbh its now probably too late anyway.
