Itzulia Basque Country 2023 (April 3-8)

[Samamba]

Does EF really not have anyone in that big group after they did all that work at the beginning of the climb?

 

[Escarabajo]

Uran

 

[RedheadDane]

Go Landa.
Vingo has the charisma of a door.

Good thing you don't need charisma to win bike races.

 

[Berflamand]

Nice to see signs of life from James Knox. Maybe he could become a useful domestique for Remco after all.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Landa the greatest rider of the world. The way he danced across to vingegardd whilst the others just mess around. He races in a different astral plane to all others

 

[HelloDolly]

Mikkel do nto lead him out ......

 

[tobydawq]

I'm not talking about the crash, but the road. The stage would have been better if the finish-line was at 400 m to go.

I knew what you meant and disagree with the opinion.

 

[Bolder]

Sketchy!

What about Fausto?

Emmm ?

No doubt he is a fabulous climber but he is never usually where he needs to be in a race

A win here would do wonders for his confidence ...he needs that confidence boost

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Assuming nobody bridges, Landa probably needs to outsprint Vingegaard if he's going to win the GC. Seems a tall order.

Very rare to see hormigón descended in a race, short stretch though.

 

[Didinho]

Quickstep with 3 in the big group? With Schmid as fast finisher they should start riding.
Edit: Knox on front already.

 

[Samamba]

Uran

Yeah missed him.

 

[Blobs]

Landa knows the roads. He can put pressure on this annoying Vinggaard

Just out of curiosity: why is what Vingegaard is doing here annoying?

 

[Samamba]

Was there a crash? Group looks smaller. Yates disappeared.

EDIT: back now

 

[Valv.Piti]

Pellizotti would probably have won this, but it will be hard for Mikel

 

[DNP-Old]

Seeing how badly these two are on the descent, Bilbao would have smoked this race.

 

[HelloDolly]

Everyone going on about Ineos and EF but Jayco have hardly being going great

 

[Elos Anjos]

I'm all in for Landa.

 

[ice&fire]

Landa is the better descender, but this is not technical enough to gap Vingegaard.

 

[HelloDolly]

Seeing how badly these two are on the descent, Bilbao would have smoked this race.

Or he could have helped Landa

 

[Valv.Piti]

What are you on about? Looks good to me.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Vingaggard is just annoying guy

 

[DNP-Old]

What are you on about? Looks good to me.

Excuse me?

 

[Valv.Piti]

Excuse me?
