Paris-Nice 2022 (03/06 - 03/13)

[Devil's Elbow]

Burgaudeau has the Alaphilippe looks but also the Alaphilippe panache. Good win.

 

[johnymax]

Now Burgaudeau has more wins than Alaphilippe and Sagan combined this year.

And Roglic

 

[Netserk]

Considering he's attacked again I doubt it.

He literally watched him pass by without reacting.

 

[AlfaLum]

Very nice victory by Burgaudeau, love these kind of wins!

however incredible how Trek messed this up. Stuyven rode only 15 meters on the front in this stage. And Pedersen can thank Mollema for losing this stage for him. If Mollema would not have problems following Laporte and Mozatto they would surely have caught Burgaudeau.

And Van der Poel.

 

[Velolover2]

Pedersen most be frustrated.

Might have been at his limit. If not, it's a good old Rabofail.

 

[Lequack]

Wow what a great victory from a break, that was awesome to watch.

 

[Red Rick]

And Van der Poel.

Ill put myself in there too

Burgaudeau for world champion bet？

 

[Samu Cuenca]

And Van der Poel.

He doesn't resemble Burgaudeau quite as much though. Roglič at least has a beard (sometimes).

 

[JosefK]

Chapeau, Burgaudeau. Pain and reward.

Oh, I misunderstood the game then.

 

[Rollthedice]

Burgaudeau has the Alaphilippe looks but also the Alaphilippe panache. Good win.

Just needs to loose the fat. On another note, that was very exciting, he'll remember it for the rest of his life. Chapeau as they say.

With the way he's climbing, why isn't Mads Pedersen riding MSR?
Actually why hasn't he ever ridden it?

No idea. I guess it doesn't fit with the way he prepares for the cobbles.

I think he initially wasn't planning on doing it, but I thought someone from Trek said this week that they might change it with his current form.

 

[Velolover2]

Pedersen is similar to Kristoff.

And in his golden 2015, he did Nice (stage win) Sanremo (2nd) and Flanders (1st) with great success. I don't think that is an odd combination.

 

[jmdirt]

Very nice MB!

 

[yaco]

The peleton forget that around 700 metres of the last km was downhill which allowed Burgeaudeau to hang on.

He said this week that Stuyven deserves full leadership at San Remo after winning it last year.

But I also don’t understand why he has never ridden it, as it suits him better than Flanders in my opinion. Also Stuyven can only benefit from his presence.

Hmm, single leader doesn’t even make sense for MSR because it might be one type of rider who can win because they have enough power to get into a small group that gets away over the top of the Poggio and stays away till the finish, and another type of rider (a sprinter) who can win if the race comes back together for a bunch sprint.

 

[Carols]

Chapeau to Burgaudeau !!! I Love it when a little guy steals one .

I've actually been avoiding the forum until post race. Darned exciting race every day then I come here and it's whine, whine throughout. You guys should try Enjoying it more .

 

[bajbar]

This Paris-Nice has been very entertaining in general with maybe the exception of yesterdays stage. Though we still got 3km of GC action, which is decent for todays standards haha. But not a single boring sprinter stage snooze-fest.
