Il Lombardia 2021 (October 9th)

[BlueRoads]

And the super-fail by the first chase group... boys... you don't deserve to race.

 

[jaylew]

it was bardet who didn't take his turn that stopped all team work in the group when they had reduced the gap to 29 seconds....

Shhh...remember it's supposed to be Valverde's fault.

 

[Samamba]

Naaa that chasing group, how? Seriously just quit

 

[shalgo]

Fitting end to the chase group idiocy that they let Yates and Roglic blast past them.

 

[Salvarani]

What a season from Pog. Legend.

 

[tobydawq]

And more idiocy in the sprint for third. What an annoying race all around.

But what can you say about Pogacar? The Tour and two monuments in the same year? How can that even happen in this era? Wauw.

I wonder who gets the Vélo d'Or.

 

[Volderke]

Great win by Pogacar, great ride by Masnada, but strange tactics all over this race.

 

[Savant12]

Sprint wasn't even close.

 

[saganftw]

that must have been one of the most pathetic sprint attempts from masnada i have ever seen in my life

 

[Orbit501]

And Adam Yates from a sprint for podium. Lol.

Just gets more and more surreal by the minute.

 

[Mayomaniac]

Fitting end to the chase group idiocy that they let Yates and Roglic blast past them.

Yeah, they went full clown-mode...

 

[Fantastico]

Gaudu, Woods, Valverde and Bardet just got completely mugged by Yates and Roglic...

When you think they couldn't even act more stupid...

 

[Breezy1985]

Fitting end to the chase group idiocy that they let Yates and Roglic blast past them.

It looked like Ala stopped to point them out to everyone else as they shot past.

Everyone except Ala was a joke in that chase group but the real criminals were JV. They had 2 riders they had to burn one

 

[ice&fire]

Adam Yates got too late to the bag

 

[Orbit501]

Today looks like it's been a loooooong season!

 

[Mayomaniac]

Masnada is the new Diego Rosa!
Serious, this is such a 2016 Diego Rosa performance, the same race and the same finish.

 

[shalgo]

The best season since....?

The last rider to win the TDF and two monuments in a season was Merckx in 1972. Of course, Eddy also won the Giro and a third monument that season.

 

[Ripper]

And more idiocy in the sprint for third. What an annoying race all around.

But what can you say about Pogacar? The Tour and two monuments in the same year? How can that even happen in this era? Wauw.

I wonder who gets the Vélo d'Or.

LOL

 

[IndurainsTdF1994]

No, he didn't. He has it to mess with Rogla's head ...

And it worked!

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Tour, Liege, Lombardia and a medal at the Olympics. Add to that 10 additional victories including 3 stages at the Tour and two WT-stage races. Legendary season.

 

[TomBonnen2005]

Lance Armstrong was dominating one race each season, Roglic/Pocagar are now dominating everything... Hope it doesn't continue like that for long...

 

[Salvarani]

I like that we in an era where the GT riders wins monuments. How it used to be

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Evenepoel actually still somewhat decent.
19th and more importantly AHEAD OF ALMEIDA AMIRITE?

 

[Breezy1985]

And more idiocy in the sprint for third. What an annoying race all around.

The last 2 years have been like the racing you read about or hear from older fans. Real man v man no trains no BS just legs and cycling brains (well sometimes brains)

 

[Ilmaestro99]

I'm sorry everybody that Fausto couldn't finish it off. But he is not anything close to having a sprint. And Pogacar closed his attack without leaving the saddle.

Woods, Gaudu, Bala, Vingegaard are all idiots. Yates as well. At least Fausto had the balls to give us hope of a different result.
