O Gran Camiño 2023, Spain, February 23-26

What a ridiculous final climb... at one point it looked like Vingegaard was riding straight into someone's garage.

Ridiculous? It was gorgeous. More of this!

Congrats to Jonas for taking the stage. Watched only the finale. To be honest and with all due respect i don't really get it. On what exactly a reigning Tour winner is doing here.

I've never tried it, but I'd assume some would have on Christmas Eve, if they had the powers.

If I had the powers, there would be snow from November to March.

 

[Netserk]

Dennis in the hot seat. I think Vingegaard starts 14:00?

 

[DJ Sprtsch]

14:08

Same as Pogacar was doing in the Ruta del Sol?

They do love their drones over there in Galicia.

 

[Red Rick]

Okay this drone is freaking me out

 

[Red Rick]

Live ticker has Vingegaard already 34s ahead of Guerreiro lol

 

[Red Rick]

Vingegaards TT position seems super low. Even at the lowest point his legs are still quite bent.

 

[DJ Sprtsch]

oh boy. Vingo crushing Dennis’ intermediate.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Vingegaard 24s up on Dennis at T1, surely he isn't that far away from his projected tour form otherwise this season will get ridiculous.

 

[carolina]

Will he catch Guerreiro?!

I think Paris - Nice is his biggest target before the Tour, so it makes sense.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Will he slow down and let Dennis win the stage?

Edit: It doesn't look like it.

 

[DJ Sprtsch]

35 seconds in the end. Wow.

 

[Red Rick]

Yes, police? I would like to report a murder

 

[RedheadDane]

Guerreiro avoids being caught by Vingegaard.
Just.

 

[KZD]

Will he slow down and let Dennis win the stage?

Edit: It doesn't look like it.

He wanted to catch Guerreiro and almost managed it lol

Taking 35 seconds on Dennis on a 18km TT is impressive. Vingegård is already in very good shape and I hope one day he tries to do something in World Championships or Olympics because he should be very competitive in harder courses.

We didn't even get a '21 Vuelta redux. Rogla would have caught him!

Rohan Dennis isn't the Dennis of old, still good of course but a half a minute gap to Vingegaard is not out of the ordinary. This TT win is more or less expected.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

That family emergency certainly didn't affect him too much this week.

 

[Big Doopie]

Impressive. We could be in for a treat of a season.

 

[Ulle97]

Vingegaard seems ridiculously strong. I don't know if anybody can stay with him this year.

 

[IndianCyclist]

Pogacar awaits

 

[Krzysztof_O]

Wow, I don't think Vinge has ever been that strong so early in the season. The comparisons with Landa, which I made, must have spurred the Dane PN could be an early mutants battle.
