Re: Re:
He sprinted and ended up 5th just barely off the podium. Everyone who finished around him (the rest of the top 10) are actually all faster sprinters than he is. The climbs were not hard enough to drop many of the riders who are faster sprinters than he is. Sagan, Mathews, and Kristoff are all sprinters the last I checked. They all finished in front of him. The other rider who finished in front of him is Navardauskas whom I don't know. How exactly do you expect him to out sprint actual sprinters? He actually came very close to out sprinting both Navardauskas and Kristoff.
Netserk said:And what did he do on the last lap?Valv.Piti said:Yeah, he should have attacked on the 2nd last lap. Im surprised to why all the flat roads after the small climbs didn't encourage him (or anyone else for that matter) to do anything before the last lap. :lol:Netserk said:And he did absolutely nothing during the race to increase his own or his team's chance of winning the event. Good old Valverde.
