[johnymax]

In Slovenia the winning move is already made in the first lap of ten. Pogi, Polanc, Mohorič, Tratnik and Koren with a gap around a minute already.

Italian u23 champion is Benedetti, after a 100 km solo ride

 

[postmanhat]

The French race is now on Eurosport player.

For those who don't have it. There's a 13 man lead group including Cavagna, Barguil, Lafay, Mollard, Rolland and Bouchard. TDE ar chasing in the peleton and have brought the gap down from 4 minutes to 2'20" fairly quickly, but they haven't got that many riders left

The gap is already 2min after lap 2.

Total are doing their best to use their direct energies in order to rip the jersey from FDJ.

 

[Red Rick]

Nice interview with Jakobsen before the broadcast. Says he's slowly but surely feeling whole again. Needs to talk a lot to retrain his facial muscles, so maybe it's just that instead of nerve damage.

Was asked about riding vs Groenewegen, but he said it doesn't matter cause it won't be a sprint anyway.

Is the race shown somewhere already? i have been watching for a stream on rtv but it has not started yet?

I had major surgery a few years back and they said facial nerves could take years to heal so there is def hope

 

[Red Rick]

17 man lead group in the Dutch race. Van der Poul group at 46 seconds.

Dumoulin dropped early and abandoned. Not sure why, Groenewegen is in the lead group, so it can't be that hard.

 

[GenericBoonenFan]

And just to confuse matters in Germany, the front-trio is being chased by another 2-Bora, 1-Wanty trio...

Schwarzmann in there?

 

[Norbea]

Uno-X has 19 Norwegian pro riders and 7 Norwegian development riders. They could have had a team of 26 riders in the National championship, but they have chosen to limit themselves to 15 riders. Nice, but they are still dominant in the field, controlling the race. They have no one in the brake away. I guess with Kristoff out of the race, they have less to worry about.

The husband of Lotta Henttala wins the Finnish national championships.

 

[RedheadDane]

Schwarzmann in there?

Dunno, I'm mostly keeping the sound on for the Danish race.

 

[Red Rick]

They also keep talking about increasing the height of the VAM-Berg so it could be part of a tough Worlds course, but I just struggle to see it happening with how ridiuclously narrow it is everywhere.

Would probably be a great race though.

 

[Red Rick]

Jumbo now doing Valverde attacks on VdP.

 

[BlueRoads]

Schwarzmann in there?

Burghardt, Politt and Koch I think.

 

[Broccolidwarf]

The race has contracted in Denmark.

12 conti riders out in front, then 43 seconds to a group containing a lot of WT riders (the Kron group being joined by the WT riders that attacked from the peloton earlier) - with the peloton at 1:23.

Both time gaps are constantly shrinking.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

The husband of Lotta Henttala wins the Finnish national championships.

His first pro win, and Novo Nordisk's fist in almost three years.

 

[Mayomaniac]

Tiberi attacking from the main group with over 80kms to go, he has a 30sec gap atm.

It should be here:

I'm live at he scene. They pass by my home, those are roads I ride and drive every day. I didn't expect the route to be that selective so early to be honest.

 

[BlueRoads]

Funny situation in Germany, Buchmann and Schachmann cannot get rid of Zimmermann, and it looks like Schachmann is not in best form... so they are now waiting for the trio behind: Burghard, Politt, Koch... we will see what change that brings.
