Indeed.
I didn't actually mention the name of said race.
Mainly because I'm too lazy.
But how strong is Van Aert really? He was okay in Strade, okay in Tirreno, but not nearly as strong as MVDP, and then in MSR we couldn't really see how he measured up. Let's be honest, he was lucky to get on the podium.

I think he is stronger than last year, which should be enough to win, assuming MVDP is still recovering

Such a race will never happen again. Nowadays it would be cancelled by the weather protocol.
G Thomas from Sky.
Edit: On another note, Paolini was the last Italian to win the race.

I dont think Van der Poel is looking to do another long solo today. Wouldn't be surprised to see a more defensive approach. But Van Aert and Florian Vermeesch will probably go all out attacking.
This is a race I like. In my opinion it is the easiest good race (and the easiest race that should be in the World Tour).
If MvdP wants to win, the logical way should be to escape with guys like Vermeersch or van Aert and win the sprint (unless he wants to go solo again to improve his power record).

The morning break is done. 8 riders with about 4mins. 210kms to go.
(and no, Burgos didn't manage to get in the break).

The Frenchman in the breakaway, Camille Charret, is the youngest participant. Matthew Brennan is the second youngest.
The oldest two are Luka Mezgec and John Degenkolb - the winner of twelve years ago.

Red Bull working hard, some of those riders in the second group might feel this effort if the Peloton comes back.
Sam Watson realised he needs to end his race here, as red bulls 5 leaders set a tepid pace on the front of g2.

Laporte the only Visma rider in the first 50 positions on kemmelberg. Turner and abrahamsen attack. Van aert mechanical?

Is Hartthijs a common name in the Netherlands, and is it really just a proper hardman variant of Thijs?
