Gent–Wevelgem – In Flanders Fields 2025

[Heston]

Good thing for Pedersen that Kemmelberg is coming now, should thin out the amount of helpers in the peloton

 

[tobydawq]

Pedersen will maybe just be boring and immediately go solo, killing all suspense.

He'll do what is now known as a Roglic.

 

[Didinho]

Went out for 10 minutes and Pedersen is in front. Is he riding dumb again? Or just that strong?

 

[Heston]

Pedersen is good and should win this bike race, but one can only wonder how much he's giving today, and what will be left next Sunday.

He doesnt do half measures. It's all in or nothing

There's a week till Sunday?

Pedersen will maybe just be boring and immediately go solo, killing all suspense. Or at least after the last Kemmelberg.

He will definitely go solo on Kemmel, but it's still super far. An organized peloton catches him afterwards. He's good, but you have to be one of the superhumans to make that stick if there's organization behind

 

[Netserk]

Already with strong pulls now. They should just stay on his wheel already.

 

[Heston]

Campenaerts should definitely pull with Pedersen after Kooij has DNF'ed. No better option for Visma

At least it's a tailwind from the last Kemmel.

And he is pseudo-superhuman.

He should save his legs and survive.

I have just seen too many riders being great in GW only to stall a week later.

 

[Savant12]

A Mads solo win would be impressive but he's no Pog or MVDP.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Peloton too big gap too small, sprint it is.

 

[Netserk]

Not bad for attackers in the peloton.

 

[Netserk]

UAE should drill it behind now.

 

[tobydawq]

Peloton too big gap too small, sprint it is.

There are two more Kemmelbergs.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

The stage is set for Belgian classics superstar arijn lyvens to take a historic victory

 

[Didinho]

Mads insane. Hoping for a strong group from the peloton now.

UAE most riders in front over the Kemmel.

 

[Netserk]

Good composition.

 

[Didinho]

Mads doesn’t want anyone near him.

 

[Netserk]

The trio won't make it back.

 

[Axel Hangleck]

Terrible luck for Philipsen

Remember Alpecin are now on Pirelli tyres.........might not be the wisest decision they've made.

 

[Samamba]

At least it's a tailwind from the last Kemmel.

And he is pseudo-superhuman.

I agree he's the guy just below the superhumans, but you still have to be unbelievably strong to hold an organized peloton back for 40kms straight. Even with Van der Poel the gap wasn't that big anymore int he end (or maybe I remember it incorrectly).

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Legendary strategy by Brunel to totally tire himself out before the kemelberg

 

[Netserk]

The first big group should be able to work together better than this. It's a good group for the attackers.

Ah, their gap was too small.
