Kuurne - Bruxelles - Kuurne 2024, February 25, one-day classic

[scribers]

Did Wout hang up the air phone?

I’d like he do something like play the air guitar

 

[DNP-Old]

Laporte didn't even sprint and still won that sprint comfortably.

 

[Samamba]

And there is the expected crash. Lmao so typical and so stupid

 

[ChewbaccaDefense]

Laporte takes the field. All your base are belong to us.

 

[RedheadDane]

Crash in the peloton.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

There is nothing worse than ending your spring with a crash in a sprint for placements.

 

[Red Rick]

Laporte showing that Kuurne was merely a gracious gift of him to Wout van Aert

 

[postmanhat]

Was that Fred Wright in 4th? Long time since he's won a sprint.

 

[Didinho]

Laporte taking the p*ss.

 

[ChewbaccaDefense]

Dude on the electric scotter getting important tv time.

 

[Salvarani]

Was that Fred Wright in 4th? Long time since he's won a sprint.

Nah he faded in the sprint.

Probably finished 15th or something.

Laporte taking the p*ss.

Haha, that was really easy. Only problem was Lamperti in his way.

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Cycling fans: How could this race eat even more arse than it already has?
Fate: Crash sprinting for minor placings and Laporte takes the field.
Cycling gods: Do it!

 

[Rob5091]

Visma make it a two win weekend ... plus Vos for the ladies.

 

[ChewbaccaDefense]

Haha, that was really easy. Only problem was Lamperti in his way.

Good to see Lamperti up there.

Smartest rider today. The other guy running was hilarious though.

 

[postmanhat]

Not sure how I feel about the big Belgian steward having a scooter. Will probably extend his lifespan by a decade so must be a good thing?

 

[Samamba]

Can someone explain to me why DSM didn't use Eekhoff and Degenkolb yesterday? yk their only 2 riders who can ride over cobbles and sprint a bit.

 

[postmanhat]

Nah he faded in the sprint.

Probably finished 15th or something.

Thanks. Was only half-watching and confused the Euro champs jersey with Bahrain.

 

[JosefK]

Smartest rider today. The other guy running was hilarious though.

The big man moved surprisingly light on his feet.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Well, it was a fun season, who remembers Stevie WIlliams, Brandon Mcnulty vs Vlasov, the good old days, it seems like so long ago.

 

[Salvarani]

Thanks. Was only half-watching and confused the Euro champs jersey with Bahrain.

Yeah, Wright is difficult to spot when looking at the jersey. Bad national jersey... but he has the flag on his helmet. Thats how I saw him in the sprint. He was in a good position but sprinted backwards.

 

[KZD]

This win should give Van Aert the motivation needed for his real goals.

Good race from Wellens and Lazkano, they did what they could here.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Jeannière sprinting to 6th probably doubled Total's points haul for the season. I still wouldn't be able to tell you whether their jersey has changed much compared to last year.

 

[Salvarani]

Lamperti 7th. Not bad.
