The Sagan hate is strong here. Sad.

 

[burning]

Couqard is dropped from the chasing group

Re:

SAGAND. Ready for a second place?

Is that crap supposed to be smart or funny? It isn't. At all, especially when the guy always rides his guts out. No Wheelsucking.

 

[Lexman]

Coquard has the chasers to let go because of echelon, Trentin and stybar are gone wtf???

What ???

 

[meat puppet]

Sep been smart. Surely hurting but definitely sandbagging some.

VMT, crazy to hate on Sagan. By far the most entertaining rider in the world - animates every single race he rides.

Exactly. One has to be an hypocrite to like cycling while disliking the guy that makes most races.

 

[Andro]

Vanmarcke has been semi-wheelsucking ever since they got away. He'll probably win. Sagan and Cancellara have worked way more.

I have read all comments in this thread, and not a single one has struck me as hateful. Which posts do you refer to?

 

[Lexman]

almost 1 minute ...OMG??!!!

I don't think its hate. You have to admit its just a bit funny (for us not for him) that he always gets 2nd.

 

[nightfend]

I don't think people hate Sagan (well maybe a few). He's the most consistent rider in the peloton and has had a ton of close calls, so it's fun to crack jokes about his amazing number of 2nd places.

Can't see it. I think it will be even Sagan in a sprint or Canc ellara will get away. Don't see how Vanmarcke could get the jump on Canc.

Canc will probably find a way. He nearly always wins from a small group in this kind of situation; Sagan and Vanmarcke usually find a way to lose. Kuznetzov - who knows?

 

[hfer07]

Cance FTW
Sagan FT2nd

 

[yespatterns]

I just feel like the kid takes a crazy amount of undo criticism race-wise, but I suppose any WC gets the same treatment until they break their duck.

 

[May0maniac]

Only an EMP bomb could stop Cance.

 

[Geraint Too Fast]

I really don't mind which one of these 4 win.

Well said! I just don't get how any cycling fan can not like Sagan.

 

[SeriousSam]

1. Cance
2. Sagan
3. Vanmarcke

or 1. Vanmarcke
2. Sagan
3. Cance

imo

Etixx ar collectively very strong but none of their riders are as strong as Canc, Sagan, Van A., or Kw. Unless someone like Stybar is bluffing big time I can't see them winning Flanders or Roubaix this year.

 

[nightfend]

I'd be okay with the Russian kid winning. He is WAY over his head.

Etixx holding it all for P-R where they will complete podium...

 

[TomLPC]

Just tuned in to see all the etix boys sitting in the second group
