peloton split just before coverage, probably on the first gravel sector.

uae had 3 riders in the group, wellens attacked on the flat after the descent, and pidcock was back in the peloton

But how do you send Donovan with Wellens when you have Hermans in the group for example, or why did Red Bull let Wellens go. Like it's February Wellens in a UAE jersey.

Anyways, like I said earlier, it isn't over yet. Wellens is great, but he isn't Pogacar. But other teams are taking unnecessary risks for some reason.

Furthermore, Donovan has been collaborating with Wellens despite being Picock's teammate :sweatsmile: .

UAE too strong in G2. But even without them they probably wouldn’t catch him. How did he even get in front so early, just dropped everyone?

I'll never cheer a uae rider. But in the modern era the riders who just go off early and get their head down are the smart ones who deserve the win. These clowns have no idea how to race in a group and this happens more and more often.
