Milano - Sanremo 2024, one day monument, March 16

[Tim Cahill]

Oh Michael not again

 

[KZD]

Philipsen with his first big win, but incredible how Pogačar still gets third among such fast riders.

A shame that UAE wasn't better.

 

[postmanhat]

Unlucky Pidcock. Great descent and move at the end.

 

[AnotherArmChair]

After all that a sprinter wins....

 

[Screecher]

How is this race a monument, this is so dumb.

 

[Salvarani]

Don't like to see guys like phillipsen winning monuments

He was second in PR last season

 

[Jumbo Visma Fan :)]

Matthews coming second is probably the most random thing from this race.

 

[Samamba]

How is this race a monument, this is so dumb.

Look at the top 10 and say this again? I really don't see the problem. Does every monument have to be won by the strongest in the race?

MVdP really is the mvp.

 

[Sciatic]

Well, whoever I was trying explaining about how sprinters not able to win here these days—I’z wrong!

 

[Gigs_98]

Man vdP really should have tried to pass Pogi right when he caught him. He had the gap and waited behind the inferior descender

Have to admit, I didn't realize Philipsen was still there. Made a bit more sense in this case

 

[Froome]

@mou what happened? Why Pogacar could not do 8.5 w/kg in 12 minutes? You are a charlatan like the chaud fraude dude! You said the first defeat of Pogacar this year, was going to be on GP Quebec.

 

[Zoetemelk-fan]

MvDP as ramp for Philpsen is a quite stable construction.
Congrats to Jasper - an big kudos to MvDP!
(Think this in fact is first time I've watched the race from the gun to the bitter end without leaving for other than coffee )

 

[Red Rick]

The irony of Philipsen winner cause Matthews is too much of a moron to close the door

 

[movingtarget]

Heartbreak for Matthews. Thought he had it.

 

[Salvarani]

Great race!

It always deliver entertainment wise.

 

[tobydawq]

It would have been insane to see Matthews win. So so close.

 

[ppanther92]

Matthews coming second is probably the most random thing from this race.

Looked good on Poggio though already

 

[scribers]

Mvp was cooked

 

[iBanesto]

Jasper the Disaster wins!

 

[Ripper]

Ba ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Back to the drawing board for UAE, but going to be a tall order to defeat this Alpecin duo here any time soon.

 

[RobertCrawley]

After all that a sprinter wins....

Yep. Credit to him. He hung on with the best up the climbs and down the descents.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

What's the point of watching this sport everytime you get excited and the villain always wins , I hate sprinters , I'm no longer watching cycling after this. That guy in the Pogacar thread was the real charlatan all along!!!!
