Paris-Nice 2024, March 3-10

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Ok, now tell them to go faster and start racing.

Says a Roglic fan.

 

[RedheadDane]

C. Pedersen deciding it's boring, so he'd do a little bit of CX...

 

[SHAD0W93]

Bora showing they are more afraid of Skjelmose than Remco. It looks like it'll be Skjelmose vs Roglic for the win. Remco will fight Vlasov and Van Welder for 3rd. Good battles ahead of us...

Roglic wants to make sure his second place is secure over Almeida and Skjelmose.

 

[postmanhat]

Looks like Mikhels will make it back. Am emotionally exhausted now.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

8km to go, things should start picking up now

 

[DNP-Old]

What an impressive job by Van Dijke for absolutely nobody.

 

[DNP-Old]

Pithie in yellow?

 

[Salvarani]

De Kleijn!

Happy for him and Tudor.

 

[RedheadDane]

De Kleijn takes it.

 

[KZD]

Deserved win for De Kleijn after several second places in UAE.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Whoever did that turn for Tudor under 2k did a sensational job, a few teams tried to swamp them and come round but he kept a huge tempo for a long time to keep him in position.

Trentin?

 

[Samamba]

Bunch sprints are such a mess nowadays, most fast guys can't even sprint cause they're not in position

Fair play to De Kleijn and Tudor tho.

De Kleijn can't survive a bridge, but he's really fast if the KJs are low.

 

[tobydawq]

Pithie takes the jersey.

That was not on my bingo card.

 

[Berniece]

Nice to see him get this win after those 4x 2nd places he's already got this season

 

[Salvarani]

Cancellara given them some pointers.

 

[DNP-Old]

Jakobsen came to Paris vs. Nice for this sprint, his only chance, and finished 28th.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Trentin?

Think it was Trentin yes, 1.7k to go, LIdl and Intermarche try to come to the front.

 

[tobydawq]

Jakobsen came to Paris vs. Nice for this sprint, his only chance, and finished 28th.

Ridiculous not to do Tirreno.

 

[Samamba]

Jakobsen came to Paris vs. Nice for this sprint, his only chance, and finished 28th.

I mean the team deserves this fail when you go with Jakobsen to a stage race with 1 clear sprint stage instead of one with 3 or 4.

 

[joseph89]

Bennett, there was a clear gap left. Washed!!

 

[Salvarani]

Jakobsen came to Paris vs. Nice for this sprint, his only chance, and finished 28th.

Yeah, he is done. Lefevere always know when it is time to let go of his main sprinter.

 

[Faserr]

Van Poppel on leadout duties, but that was the only option in the end.

 

[Rob5091]

A messy ol' sprint but well done by Tudor to hang in there at the end.

This is why I would take De Kleijn before Dainese to the Giro. De Kleijn is much better at following a train.
