Il Lombardia 2024, one day monument, October 12, farewell to Domenico Pozzovivo

I'm not that sinister.

But you‘re probably not rich enough to secure a EPO conviction in the current environment

 

[Samamba]

We may have a double UAE podium today

Sivakov will catch Mas and LVE indeed.

Really weird move from both Mas and LVE to juist let Remco go there. They had to be with him on the flat part, now they are sitting ducks.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Remco attacking his rivals on the descent, all that ben and jerrys and haribo really paying dividends!!

 

[saunaking]

FFS watching this stupid race and miss the part where remco gapped the other 2

Remco attacking his rivals on the descent, all that ben and jerrys and haribo really paying dividends!!

And Mas being Mas.

Sky was a different sort of boring tbf. Strangle a race with train riding and then have 5 guys in a group of 10 in the last 5k.

At least we could pretend the race was interesting I guess, which can't even do that now. We also still had the classics back then whereas this year had been Pog or VDP stomping on anyone

But in the Sky years the Giro and Vuleta were exciting during that period. It was only the TDF they dominated, even when Sky finally won the Giro in 2018 was very exciting.

 

[ChasingPotatoes]

Well, Remco should keep pushing, who knows Pog will have a mechanical.
And besides this not being something anyone wishes for, that's about the only way this race can still be anywhere near exciting, I fear.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

It's like if Ricco did his col d'aspin performance on every race day from march to October

 

[Tim Cahill]

He's actually looking top bollocks on the descent, gaining on Pocagar, what's going on here.

 

[Salvarani]

Masnada taught Remco well

 

[Savant12]

FFS watching this stupid race and miss the part where remco gapped the other 2

He didn't gap them; they just can't descend well.

Only the Saudis have that kind of dough

 

[Poursuivant]

Love all these cycling is dead shouts - I am old enough to remember people saying Pog will never win another TDF

Remco dropped them, they didn't let him go. Good move by Remco, they were not helping anyway (and only slowing him down if they did).

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Remco reeling him in

 

[scribers]

Remco making gains

 

[Rechtschreibfehler]

Remco wobbles and almost all the time he caught up is gone, according to GPS propaganda.

 

[Sciatic]

Probably cheaper to secretly assault someone for a career-changing injury in a way you could get away with.

I hear Tonya Harding’s ex is looking for work

 

[Heston]

It's like if Ricco did his col d'aspin performance on every race day from march to October

It's sad how true this is.

 

[scribers]

Remco losing those gains precipitously

 

[Tricycle Rider]

I know it's his job and he's good at it, but watching Pog descend at a blazing speed is making me nervous.

 

[Snake]

Clown gps

 

[yaco]

The Sky era of GC riding was so boring when they strangled the race.. The only saving grace was that when they had a comfortable GC lead, they, then let the break to win the stage.

 

[scribers]

What the hell is going on with this time gap???

 

[Samamba]

Remco dropped them, they didn't let him go. Good move by Remco, they were not helping anyway (and only slowing him down if they did).

It was on a straight part. Mas just let go and looked at LVE who was busy with his bidon. When he reacted it was way too late. Remco is riding a good descent, but that wasn't normal "dropping"
