E3 Saxo Classic 2023, one day classic, March 24

[Samamba]

Moto pacing to a whole new level here, wtf is this ***. Its a headwind also

 

[DoYouEvenRideBruh]

Surely this is the selection.

 

[Riek s]

WVA, VDP and pog are extremely good.

Patrick Lefevre can lower his expectations for the spring classics to nothing it seems.
Maybe LBL is allaphilippe finds form, or Remco is good enough to contend..

 

[Netserk]

I have Kragh winning from this group. Alpecin has really stepped up as a team.

 

[Sciatic]

Can’t believe no one got out of their car to cheer while sitting in that traffic jam!

 

[Berniece]

Lol that motopacing, is this 2005 Gent-Wevelgem?

 

[Tim Cahill]

Lone B+B Hotels breakaway in a TDF transitional stage levels of motorpacing

Asgreen seems in good form.

 

[gerundium]

Mvdp will drop everyone here. His brutal attacks have been the starting point for all the selections.

Hats off to Pog. The fact that he as a top GT rider and TdF winner clearly wants to translate his talent to the classics and compete on the cobbles is absolutely tremendous. It’s clear how much he loves to race and with him Mathieu and WvA we’re witnessing a golden era.

That's not a bad call. I'd kind of like Wout to win to silence the doubters and critics, like myself.

So true!

 

[Netserk]

Will it be up to Pogi to reduce this group further, or will Van der Poel try to isolate Van Aert?

 

[Tim Cahill]

Their best chance is to keep it within a minute and wait for the conversations to start happening in the front.

 

[SafeBet]

I have VDP dropping another couple watt bombs before the finish and only Van Aert / Pog being able to follow (maybe). But let's see.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Fun fact: Van Aert is below-average in this front group in terms of number of monuments won.

Commentators just pointed out that GT is the only person to win the Tour and E3...that's heady company for Pog!

 

[Valv.Piti]

Once again proves to be the most underrated race on the whole calender, and quite possibly the 3rd-4th best race of the year.

Wout win for me today

 

[Sciatic]

I was worried that guy on the quad would go in ditch and take them all out

The gap from Ronde, Wevelgem and this to the other Flemish races is a chasm.

Yes he seems like he wants to go faster if he wants.

 

[Valv.Piti]

What happend before Taainberg btw? Joined the coverage in the bus a few minutes before VDP launched and now just got home!

 

[Valv.Piti]

Agree!
Ronde>>E3>>G-W>>>>Omloop>>Dwaars/Kuurne

Adam Blithe is seemingly paid by the Ganna-mention

With the new Omloop finish, sadly yes.
