Do Wanty evem have a sprinter?

No. FDJ tho.. They have Welten but are just sitting there with 5 guys.

I think they'll catch them in the last km.

 

[Samamba]

Yeah sprint it is. Lame, now we're getting a no name sprinter winning this.

 

[tobydawq]

Meh.

 

[Red Rick]

Gotta love teams without sprinters riding for the sprint

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Repeat of last year it is.

 

[Salvarani]

Walscheid!

 

[wheresmybrakes]

That's Roglic no chance at the Tour if he can't win this.

 

[Red Rick]

Gotta love the lesser cobbled races which is just sprinters getting dropped before winning anyway

 

[Devil's Elbow]

All the other teams worked for a Walscheid win. Oh well, that was still an entertaining finale.

 

[sir fly]

Successful operation - lethal outcome.

 

[JosefK]

As fun as could be expected, maybe a bit more.

They really needed Valverde in the 2nd group

 

[CyclistAbi]

Sprinters ruining the party.

 

[Bye Bye Bicycle]

Fantastic sprint by Max. Well deserved win!

 

[SafeBet]

Sucks the attackers were caught but still an entertaining race. Walscheid with a powerful sprint.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

They needed Jumbots being present to disrupt the chase. Seriously, how weak were they outside of Roglic today?

I mean... Look at that top 10.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Lol at Walscheid thanking Wanty in the interview.

Agree. I think it was just Roosen in the peloton.

 

[woodburn]

Did Vinegaard finish with main group?

Sheffield seems like he is potential classics guy with some upward ability in other races.

 

[Bye Bye Bicycle]

Lol at Walscheid thanking Wanty in the interview.

Very true though. But Piet Allegaert did a really good job in protecting him in the final, too.

 

[Samamba]

There's just way too many races that end in a reduced bunch sprints with C and D tier sprinters. There's just way too many of them in Belgium and especially France. Atleast in Belgium there's sometimes some A and B tier sprinters participating in them.

The group was too big. Valverde magic works only in smaller groups
