Gent-Wevelgem In Flanders Fields - 26/3 - 162.5 KM (1.WWT)

[Salvarani]

Crazy lol

 

[awavey]

Reusser trying to make it more exciting

 

[RedheadDane]

WTF was that?

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Still, at least she has a lot of time so it shouldn't have any lasting consequences.

Wiebes... yea. I mean, she's got elite power, but still a fair bit to learn about non-péloton racing it seems!

 

[postmanhat]

Probably got bored and was thinking about a science paper.

 

[BR2]

German commentator annoying me so much... please speak normal German.

 

[BR2]

says he's not sure whether everyone knows someone is ahead?

it could be worse you could have Marty trying to name all the Swiss riders he knows of

 

[Didinho]

says he's not sure whether everyone knows someone is ahead?

No, how much she's in front.

 

[BR2]

No, how much she's in front.

the commentator I mean

 

[Scarponi]

2nd group not even riding lol

 

[postmanhat]

Jastrab the favourite to win the sprint for second?

 

[Libertine Seguros]

German commentator annoying me so much... please speak normal German.

Schwyzertüütsch?!

 

[Unterlenkerfahrend]

Great win but I laughed at her repeatedly shouting "How much" to the camera moto instead of just putting her earphones in. Was her radio broken or what?

 

[Scarponi]

Hahaha literally
Let the peloton back

 

[postmanhat]

 

[Andy262]

Heaven help us. Mess about for the last 5 km and lose a chance of a podium.

 

[BR2]

what a fail
I want to vent about women's cycling, but to be fair the men have been worse today, so I won't...

 

[BR2]

Schwyzertüütsch?!

"frägt"
"die Personalie Jastrab" tut dies und das...
"die...ähm... Dame Reusser"

 

[Samu Cuenca]

We've had multiple 1-2s this year from SD Worx and Trek, but this time it was for my CQ team!

Congratulations to the Swiss Army Knife.

Was it Jastrab in second? In that case I have 1-2, too...
Still, how can you ride sooo slow in the second group... not chase Reusser, and then let the peloton come back...

 

[JosefK]

Great ride by Reusser. She had time to take a detour and a tour of the town before returning for the win.

 

[yaco]

I doubt we will see a worse race in 2023 - From crashes splitting the peleton, no-one chasing Reusser, the second group of eight being stupid in the last 1.5kms and being caught by the third group on the road.

Wiebes bike handling is questionable and this is the second time she has caused a crash - Previously posted that Guarischi her lead-out rider is dangerous and I predict she will cause Wiebes to crash.

 

[awavey]

even Lotte was questioning what the other teams were doing in that race in her interview, but did sound like Lorena Wiebes might be a bit banged up though.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

SD Worx should get a lot more competition next week, where crashes hopefully won't play as much of a part as they did today. I wish the injured riders a speedy recovery.

I was a bit worried that Jastrab would end up being stuck as a leadout rider for Kool in too many races this year, but she's really proved this week that she has plenty of strength herself, which seems to have surprised her more than anyone else.

Van der Duin and Bossuyt also continues to deliver, and Henderson has once again flourished in the absence of Vos.
