Sprint result
Marjerus
Paternoster
Wiebes

 

[Didinho]

GC top 4 in front now.
I need a Letizia revenge win for stage 1.

 

[awavey]

GC top 4 in front now.

which is interesting with 15km to go and a 40sec gap, as a bunch sprint finish it only really suits Paternoster in that group.

Now she’s attacking herself. Looks really strong today, hope she can finish it off.
With Wiebes trying to bridge.

 

[Didinho]

All together. SD should just ride for the sprint now.

 

[awavey]

puncture for Paternoster

 

[Didinho]

puncture for Paternoster

How much bad luck has she had recently. Always 2nd or 4th in GC.
Will be hard to come back now.

Edit: they’re saying it was within 3km? Maybe she hold on untill then.

No just outside. D*mn.

 

[Didinho]

They gave it to Majerus. Closer than they thought in the end.
Letizia is round 14”. Gave her all.

 

[awavey]

Marjerus with the win ? I think that mean she jumps above Georgi in GC now

 

[RedheadDane]

Majerus?
That was slightly unexpected.

 

[JR1012]

This was so strange.

 

[awavey]

not another premature celebration SD Worx setup is it ?

 

[Didinho]

Hope Rose got it.

 

[JR1012]

Another photofinish.

 

[JR1012]

Kopecky could have won the stage but she waited for her teammates.

 

[yaco]

Think Roseman Gannon got it on the lunge.

 

[yaco]

We would have never got this finish if Paternoster did not puncture.

 

[awavey]

Hope Rose got it.

yes nothing against Marjerus, shes due a win, but it annoys me when teams try to setup wins like that, and Kopecky had that by a country mile if she'd wanted it, instead she basically has to stop metres from the line to "create" the win, how satisfying a win is that anyway when your team mate has basically gifted it to you by stopping riding at the line.

 

[JR1012]

Idiots from SD Worx, instead of securing the win (with Kopecky or Wiebes) they gambled and get punished.

 

[awavey]

Marjerus 2nd according to PCS

 

[Didinho]

This has got to be the best early celebration yet.
2 fastest riders waiting for another teammate. Celebrating with 2 and getting beaten. With a 2-3-4 for your team.

 

[awavey]

yep Ruby Roseman-Gannon takes the win

 

[Didinho]

Something to celebrate for Liv in the end. But still gutted for Paternoster.

 

[awavey]

GC
Kopecky
Henderson
Marjerus
Georgi
Paternoster
