Il Lombardia 2025, monument, October 11

[Andre]

Remco now has also become a top descender!

 

[tigabara]

What is the average speed on this descent?

 

[James M]

I think Remco learned. He didnt even try to follow Pogacar at all, he should have some left in his tank now opposed to burning himself trying to follow his wheel. In theory but might not be the case.

 

[No Excuses]

Gap was 3 min last year. Pog declining

 

[Netserk]

As feared before the race, it will be:

1. Pogi
2. Evenepoel
3. Del Toro

Remco is way better on descents.

Maybe the Tour organisers can start 19 stages at 2000m and finish at sea level, with a couple of ITT's of 60k. He may have a chance.

I hope you have fun watching the rerun. I just read your comments. That's more fun than watching a rerun of a race that used to be.

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Gap 1m10s

 

[Tim Cahill]

Storer might be saved by Del Toro's potential lack of cooperation, even though he should pull through.

It is exactly like last year.

 

[Peyroteo94]

Pogi slow down mate. Dangerous moves.

 

[tobydawq]

Wtf were those cones?? Good thing Skjelmose is dropped, otherwise he'd crash three times there.

 

[Salvarani]

Storer coming back!

 

[Leinster]

Arguably his better chance of gaining time on Pog is on the flat after the descent. Unfortunately time gaps scale with gradient, so he won’t have enough flat road to make the race close.

Enjoy him riding, he will be gone for months now. I already miss him

No, its just Remco that is better this year.

 

[Leinster]

Bit of product placement for Pog’s price-of-your-house watch.

 

[Peyroteo94]

1'10"

 

[Salvarani]

Cmon Storer!

 

[Faserr]

Don't worry Storer. You get the same draft riding 10 sec behind Remco as riding directly behind him.

 

[Netserk]

5 minutes from the bottom of Ganda seems about right for Simmons. Never any danger.

 

[James M]

It is exactly like last year.

True. He tried in EC tho thats what i refered too since it was so recent

 

[Peyroteo94]

In 3 km of a flat section, Remco lost 7 seconds to Pogacar.

 

[Salvarani]

Remco losing time on the flat now against Pog

 

[Leinster]

Storer really wrestling with the big gear on the flat.
