Always nice to see Trentin actually win. Has he taken the GC lead now?
It's like they're playing 'Where's Benny'Trentin won, or maybe it was one of the thousand Cosnefroys.
Not an appropriate type of channel, really.Do love that Volta is broadcast on the MAIN Portuguese terrestrial tv channel.

He mainly learned English at Quickstep and already has a bit of an unique local accent.I'm always fascinated how Trentin has more of a Flemish accent to his English than an Italian accent.
Tom Donnenwirth seems like a good find from AG2R, former triathlete. Jorgen Nordhagen showing good form ahead of l'Avenir, coming 3rd on a punchy finish as a diesel. I need him to not fall ill for once, because I ain't ready to give Widar the crown yet.
Edit: Yeah, I don't think that Donnenwirth win will stand for long.
@Squire is Norwegian, he might know more.If Decathlon doesn't make him pro immediately I'm 100% tipping Lotto about him again (already did but I'm assuming Decathlon will be keeping him). I'm very impressed with what he's showed this year. Pretty good climber, but also some punch and not a horrible sprint.
Anyways not sure if his win stands? Delettre had a point being mad.
Nordhagen also with a good sprint for 3rd.
Anyone Norwegian/Scandinavian who heard something about Norway maybe not participating in Tour de l'Avenir, meaning Nordhagen would also miss his biggest goal of the season and we miss out on fit Nordhagen v fit Widar once again? Well I guess it's not a rumour as they are simply not on the participating teams on Avenirs website.
Not seen anything about that. Would really surprise me if that's the case, considering the race is always a big deal for the Norwegian team. But there are also hardly any pro cycling news to be read in Norwegian. No dedicated news site, so no journalist is likely to pick up on it early if something is happening.Anyone Norwegian/Scandinavian who heard something about Norway maybe not participating in Tour de l'Avenir, meaning Nordhagen would also miss his biggest goal of the season and we miss out on fit Nordhagen v fit Widar once again?

Christen is already very, very good. He‘s only 20.Deportes online hoy, ciclismo, pelota, remo y fútbol en vivo y en directo - EITB

Christen solo as expected, Cepeda just behind
Any of the WT pros are doing Avenir this year?
Maybe Ayuso, who could win his TdF after a Vuelta snub.
Any way to watch the Volta outside of Portugal?
