Grand Prix Cycliste de Québec & Montréal 2024, one day classics, September 13 & 15

[skippo12]

WCCRR preview. Hopefully Belgium has a plan that isn't just about Evenepoel trying to follow Pog.

 

[Red Rick]

Hindley top 10 lmao

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Chapeau Pog, he's high-fiving the crowd even before the finish line. Now get thee some non-salty pants for the podium!

 

[ppanther92]

Ala took 3rd?

By the reactions, I don't think so

 

[QueenStagiaire]

If they DQ Bilbao, I will turn into a stronger puncher than Peyroteo believes Red Rick rates Pogačar to be and make a big hole in the wall in my living room.

So a not that great puncher?

 

[tobydawq]

He can have the forearms on the handlebars if the hands are on the shifters. He won't be DQ.

It was the almost supertuck we were talking about. It really looked like a supertuck from behind.

Ok, but seems so

 

[tobydawq]

Ala took 3rd?

Yes.

 

[Salvarani]

Happy scenes with Gianetti after finish!

What a win

GOAT

 

[Peyroteo94]

Pog's climbing is absolutely immense, but not gaining much time on the downhill and flat. Thats more or less in line with what we have seen this season and in his career. Only Remco can do anything, he will get gapped on the long climb, but can potentially claw some time back on the circuit in Zurich

Nah, not in a million years Remco will catch him. Zurich is much harder and weather will be better for Pogacar.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

So a not that great puncher?

Indeed, cause I will have aimed for a pillow.

 

[KZD]

22nd win of the season for Pogačar, his historical 2024 gets another chapter written.

Yes, he didn't look as good as in the Tour but he is peaking for Worlds and Lombardia not for this race and was still clearly the strongest. Nevertheless, Bilbao looked very good and could be a dangerous outsider for Zürich. Alapphilipe also looking good.

 

[Lequack]

 

[Tim Cahill]

Pretty good win, not tour form but still more than enough, sure Evenepoel will be ready as usual too, neither stand a chance against Marc, see you in 2 weeks.

 

[scribers]

Damn! Bling already finished!

 

[Red Rick]

Nah, not in a million years Remco will catch him. Zurich is much harder and weather will be better for Pogacar.

The Zurich circuit is actually easier than this.

 

[Samamba]

Yeah we just need to pray Remco is at his absolute best or I don't think Worlds will be very interesting.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Michael Woods 8th, the only Canadian to crack the top ten.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Pello Bilbao

 

[Ilmaestro99]

I didn't see in the top 40 Fausto . More Slovak beer needed immediately

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Pello Bilbao

 

[Peyroteo94]

It isn't. However Montreal has the hardest climb

 

[Krzysztof_O]

So congrats to Teddy on Montreal win - his 22nd of the season. He attacked hard one lap earlier than expected and soloed 23 km to the line. His victory was never in doubt afterwards.

WC is 2 weeks away. It wasn't vintage Pogacar yet, I think he suffered a bit (maybe also due to temperature/humidity combo). But post-Tour Pogacar normally has a form dip and this is definitely his strongest version in this period. He's on schedule for the championships, methinks.

I don't think that's gonna make him finish in the top 40...
