La Flèche Wallonne 2026, 22nd April

[Rechtschreibfehler]

Next crash, next Tudor rider out.

 

[Old-school]

Kevin with the (small) bike of Laurance.

 

[Boehmand]

Laurance was running because he gave his bike to Vauquelin

Commentators saying Leknessund needs at least 40 seconds at the foot of the climb to have a shot.

 

[Sciatic]

If the peloton speeds up on Cherave he won't have much of a gap at all.

I think that‘s a good estimate. Maybe 30 seconds if they somehow do trackstands.

 

[Brullnux]

67km for the women says PCS.

They're only about 8km behind on the road, though, because of the circuit. They're not far from the first climb on that circuit

[Potomac]

That national jersey looks good

 

[QueenStagiaire]

German ES talking about Seixas like he‘s unbeatable in the last 300 meters, did I miss the race where he was the second coming of Alaphilippe? Mur de Huy isn‘t some sort of HC category climb. He lost to Ayuso and Onley in Algarve on the final stage.

Le Scheldeprijs Wallone

 

[Netserk]

budget van aert on the move !

 

[Samamba]

Even on the Cherave they aren't going hard.

100 men going to the Mur

 

[Ilmaestro99]

FORZA FIORELLI

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Fiorelli didn't have enough horsepower.

 

[Netserk]

kron near the front

 

[Danskebjerge]

Wow - Paret-Peintre looks trimmed. Not that it will lead to success today.

 

[Sciatic]

Even on the Cherave they aren't going hard.

100 men going to the Mur

Not entirely out of the ordinary here

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Definitely not 100 men left, but it‘s going to be a really messy fight for positions.

 

[Netserk]

cherave is best when it does as little as possible

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Wow - Paret-Peintre looks trimmed. Not that it will lead to success today.

Anymore trimming and you have to start removing bones....

 

[Samamba]

Not entirely out of the ordinary here

Definitely more than normal.

 

[Danskebjerge]

I once went to the Tour stage where they went up the Mont du Chat. I looked Tony Martin straight in the eyes. You know those old pictures from WWI of those shellshocked soldiers? That's exactly how he looked 😅

I could imagine. And it's kind of sad that often, while that happens, the TV viewers are sitting and thinking it's a boring race.

 

[Brullnux]

So the only Cherave attack was by home-brand Van Aert?

 

[Boehmand]

Skjelmose far back
