E3 Saxo Classic 2025, one day classic, March 28

[Peyroteo94]

This was an expectable outcome. MVP only has one rival. It is like expecting someone other than Vingegaard to beat Pogacar in a mountain stage.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Visma should have stopped riding for belge pozzato in these races years ago, oppening weekend 2023 was the big eye opener. He is a liability.

 

[Didinho]

E3 Hill coming up. If Mathieu can gain time there it’s looking good.

 

[ChasingPotatoes]

Pedersen is stupidly cooking himself.
Get a small rest, work with Ganna, go up that last climb without going too deep in the red and you'd have a small chance. Now Pedersen is reducing chances for both himself and Gana with both of them chasing solo.

 

[MJR]

Like Van Aert last year, only to explode on the next climb.

I hope you're wrong, but fear that you're right.

 

[Netserk]

Ban drones now. I'm no longer asking.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

I've seen twelve-year-olds capable of providing better drone footage...

 

[Berniece]

You mentioned mass sprints, I'm happy to educate you that E3 Saxo Classic isn't one. Nice try my friend, nice try.

He barely won from Tarling in Paris-Nice, pretty sure MVDP wouldn't get smoked by default.

The broadcaster is playing with us viewers with that time gap going constantly up and down

 

[ChewbaccaDefense]

According to the tv timegap, Mads is keeping a steady gap.

 

[RedheadDane]

Ban drones now. I'm no longer asking.

At least get one that doesn't sound like an angry bee...

 

[Lequack]

You could mistake this for 2024 E3 race if you didn't know what year it is.

 

[Eddy Evenepoel]

angry bee...

understandable given how bad Wout is riding

 

[LookProGoSlow]

Of course not. He will hang for dear life in 9 days

Don’t you expect him to ride in battery save mode until then as he knows what will be thrown at him?

 

[ChasingPotatoes]

Rain from now on, so Pedersen will still win this after MvdP gets a hunger knock!

 

[ChewbaccaDefense]

Pederson blowing up

 

[postmanhat]

Ganna's gone. Probably won't even try to contest 2nd now?

 

[ChewbaccaDefense]

Ganna really blowing up

 

[AmRacer]

Ridiculous speed

 

[Peyroteo94]

Ganna is horrible

 

[ChewbaccaDefense]

Pan back to Wout getting dropped by Matthews on the climb.

 

[AmRacer]

Mathieu's 40 k TT is not of this world.

 

[ChewbaccaDefense]

Ganna is horrible

...dude, stop being ridiculous. Ganna is going to get 3rd, which is <counting the number of riders> better than 99% of everyone else in the race.

 

[Peyroteo94]

Don’t you expect him to ride in battery save mode until then as he knows what will be thrown at him?

Like I said, he will try to hang on for dear life. His only chance of winning RVV is winning against Pogacar in a sprint.

Imagine the motivational yelling in MvDP and Pedersens earpieces right now lol
