Mont Ventoux Dénivelé Challenge 2021

[Samu Cuenca]

MALicious riding, but it's of course not easy to judge the pace when he isn't up against the very best.

I've said it before and I'll repeat. When MAL is in shape and on his day, he is the scariest climber in the world. His accelerations on the climbs are second to none. Too bad he can't remain consistent for three weeks. The Colombian Simon Yates.

At leas the battle behind superman has been quite fun with lots of attempts from everyone other than Mas (who you'd presume is the strongest and will just jump for second in the finale)

It's not just his accelerations, once he gets a gap he just keeps going.
Christian Rodriguez riding for a podium spot, can't say I blame him.

Seems like a bit of an Unipuerto specialist though.

More than required for the victory.
Superman testing himself.
... and the teamwork.

 

[woodburn]

Looks like he is on Sunday ride while extending his advantage.

Yeah, it looks a bit like that.

Is this qualifying to be Valverde' doms in the Tour?

 

[Mayomaniac]

The upper part of the climb must be hell in the summer heat, not to mention the potential headwind.

 

[Stilletto]

Can Movi screw up a 1+2 ?

 

[Stilletto]

Good attack by Astana Rodriguez keeping the others at bay

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Doesn't count unless Padun participates.

 

[Bye Bye Bicycle]

There's a reason races like this barely exist... it's boring as hell.

Hell of the South?

 

[sir fly]

A nice challenge to put on palmares, but I'd say Movistar will try to complete the set.
Well done.

 

[Stilletto]

Should have finished down the mountain too. Could have been a treat with MAL descending skills

 

[Stilletto]

Rooooooooooooooooooodriguezzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!!!!!!!!

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Surprising that Mas couldn't respond.

No One-Two
on the Ventoux

?

In July, hopefully.

 

[roundabout]

pretty poor by the new Contador here

 

[Eclipse]

I suppose 1+2 = 3? mission accomplished for Mas...

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Not even on attempt no. 18 could O'Connor get fully rid of Cristian Rodríguez.

Not as boring as half the races we watch. I like it but it would be better with a WT field.
