Good win by Oconnor. But I'm really positively surprised by Tratnik, he was really strong today and could've won in different circumstances. Hopefully he gets more chances to ride for himself.

Tratnik:
"Yeah, in the end it's a nice beginning of the season. You know, if I would have legs on this long climb, I would also (have) been in the first group. So the long climb was a little bit difficult for me. But yeah, the last one suits me well, and I also felt a little bit better in the end of the race. So yeah, I must say that I'm satisfied."

Strong early season ride by O'Connor & Tratnik (very Roglic like style). O'Connor's confidence should be given a boost.

Hmm, if the remaining sectors are in sufficient condition, they should still be able to do a circuit with those?
EDIT: Or rather, to do the circuit more than once:

They changed the circuit a bit I think but yes, why not do the new circuit just more than once.
This might just become a sprint now honestly.

Which the finish isn't designed for whatsoever, so this might actually be harmful from a rider safety perspective.

Well yeah obviously not a bunchsprint, but if they're going to the finish with 40 guys they'll have a problem.
And sure very possible that there's a small group going clear, but there might be some sort of somewhat group sprint behind and this finish really isn't made for it at all.

And you're right, he never has done a road race in Spain, at least not according to a quick glance through his Procyclingstats profile. Except parts of the Tour de France, like last year.

Van der Poel was there in Ponferrada though. At least I think he was.

One of those dull formulaic races where there is no meaningful action because every team is basing their strategy on a bunch sprint so they are barely even doing training ride pace.
That said I am still watching!
