Omloop Het Nieuwsblad 2026, February 28

[Tim Cahill]

UAE having some pretty bad luck this year, already had to call up one dev rider.

 

[Netserk]

here we go !

 

[Unchained]

UAE another self inflicted injury

 

[Salvarani]

Big crash again

 

[Didinho]

Bigger crash. Inevitable.

 

[AmRacer]

Crash after crash after crash after crash...

 

[Tim Cahill]

Fast bikes slippy roads young riders =/

 

[Devil's Elbow]

And that's what happens when you race as conservatively as possible.

 

[Unchained]

UAE having some pretty bad luck this year, already had to call up one dev rider.

2 or three UAE riders up out of the saddle swinging the bike around it was bound to happen...

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Soft pace -> many crashes methinks.

 

[Samamba]

Meeh I had hoped for something to happen already. Waiting game and hoping you survive crashes. Dumb.

 

[Salvarani]

Pidcock bad or just cold, maybe both

Or got hindered by the crash

 

[Berniece]

Magnier is out, Pidcock is out

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Andre griepel would have been up the road by now rolling through with a couple of pro contis.

 

[Unchained]

Didn't Rui Oliveira break a collarbone in this race a couple of years back already?

Yes.. and so did Rui Costa..

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Pidcock dropped before the first attack, oh dear.

And that's also the end of Magnier.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Magnier on a £20 bike from Toys R Us

 

[Samamba]

Unless they keep this soft pace this is over for Magnier

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Unless they keep this soft pace this is over for Magnier

Probably better off saving himself for tomorrow now, really.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Visma and UAE correctly upping the pace, partly Magnier's fault, poor positioning at the wrong time

 

[Samamba]

Philipsen flat, but he'll be fine. Good moment I think with some team memebers at the side of the road

btw, what's up with having to wait minutes to post again?

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Why don't teams send riders up the road anymore in these races

 

[Salvarani]

Asgreen meme-attack

 

[Unchained]

EF looking like TMobile

 

[QueenStagiaire]

German Commentators false-remembering Asgreen dropping Nibali off the wheel once
