This is the main reason why everyone saying Evenepoel would almost certainly have won Lombardia 2020 was a bit quick in that judgment imo. I could see Evenepoel being the strongest that day but if you can stay in his wheel you win. And I have a feeling that Pologne 2020 was the last wake-up call the peloton needed about now reacting to Evenepoel's attacks.

Lombardia was difficult enough terrain, this wasn’t. The WC is difficult enough terrain for him to drop people.

The whole team was blocking the peloton, while Remco had exactly 0% chance to drop van Aert.
Weird with him taking turns, especially taking the front in the last km instead of waiting for the gap to go down and hope the others would panic.

Masnada is such a melonhead, today hel pulled more for Colbrelli than he did for Almeida during the entire last Giro.
Ok, he had no radio, but when the motobike tells you than only a single guy is 19sec behind you with under 5kmto go you stop pulling. Instead he kept leading during the final km and tried to beat Colbrelli of all people with a long sprint. A total moron!
Respect for Zoccarato who finished 3rd and was in the early breakaway.
