Paris-Nice 2026, March 8-15

Onley has completely disappeared on the final climb

 

[Potomac]

You're clearly more popular than me

The likes go to the first one to make the joke.

People say Pog is dominating at Strade. But look at Vingegaard, he left everyone in the dust in just one stage.

The difference is that he decided to cruise for 80 km before attacking for a few minutes while Pogačar attacked first and then cruised to the line.

Considering the amount of rain, I don't think there was much dust.

affini says ayuso crashed on his own , his wheel slipped on the descent

Gotta love Eurosport... epic stage going on in Paris-Nice but they're still sticking to the schedule, a boring sprint stage in Tirreno.

yeah, no idea if it's the same everywhere, but over here they even stuck to showing Tirreno on both of their TV channels, ES1 and ES2

Im glad Jonas won and dont get me wrong he did nothing wrong tactically but it kinda dosent help the wheelsucking image, this was wheelsucking WC gold but again he wasnt suppose to do anything else so no critics from me here.

Nice win glad he won but above all happy Jonas didnt crash like last years edition. Grueful stage this in that terms I think the crash that happened on that downwhill today was nasty too.

 

[Kazistuta]

Absolutely pathetic from Red Bull. You had a 4vs1. You should've kept attacking Jonas over and over again until he completely breaks. But of course they're riding for UCI points. This is why they need to reduce the amount of points you get for lesser placings so that we get an actual race instead of whatever this is.

Tell me you don't understand race dynamics without telling me you don't understand race dynamics.

 

[Mayomaniac]

Vinge and 4 Rbs walk into an echelon...

 

[tobydawq]

Vingegaard uncharacteristically cheerful, calling himself a new fashion trendsetter. Nice to see.

Onley has completely disappeared on the final climb

I noticed his bike was orange and black, as opposed to the orange and white of Tarling's. I wonder if that is almost last seasons or a spare, in which case there was maybe not a transponder. Looking at results, no way Tarling would rise up to and drop him, surely he would follow him in until the line?

So perhaps he will appear later, or it is a super-crack after his crash and mechanical

To be honest, this year the P-N startlist is pretty weak;

Tirreno-Adriatico is by far more stacked:

Add to that Ayuso crashing.

Given the conditions, impressive ride, wet, cold, miserable..
He went when he had to be he didn't look to be riding his best, his 1k surge really cracked everyone..
He really has a great GC buffer, Danny Martinez really looked in good form.. Some really impressive rides from guys that are not regular contenders.. Lenny Martinez jumped up way up into 6th..
Vingegaard calling himself " a trendsetter " with his MC Hammer pants

 

[Rou]

Vingegaard's interview about him having 17 layers of clothes is hilarious!

They gave him wings.

Totally different scenarios. One day race vs. stage race. Vingegaard wanted to go from penultimate climb, as per morning plans, but then the race situation dictated otherwise, rain, cold, crash, then just sit in and do what's necessary. Time gaps already established, no need to do more, which was already dominant.

I think the combined start list is surprisingly week. Lots of good riders opting out of riding any of the races this week - of course some are due to injury.

yeah, he changed bikes earlier on. Probably twice. He was now added to the result as 18th and Tejada ahead of him is a new addition as well, I think.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Ok, now they‘ve found Onley and Tejada

Not sure we can gauge anything from this result... Vingegaard is obviously not in awful shape, but still in this situation he pretty much had to win. He's still not a fashionista, that's for sure.

Gentlemen's agreement in the other race, everyone agreed not to race until 3 k to go..snooze fest..

 

[memyselfandI]

Let's just hope Vingo stays upright. Or is there some sort of curse in this P-N yellow jersey..? (him crashing out of it last year and today Ayuso crashing out from it) I really hope he grabs the GC this time.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Ok, now they‘ve found Onley and Tejada

Onley was on his spare bike, right? So makes sense for him to be missing in the preliminary results.

 

[Nyanderc]

Vingegaard is at P-N just to win it, get the race km and not crashing or getting hurt. All comments comparing him and Pogacar based on Pogs one day races are hilarious and stupid...

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Presumably them having won the exclusive rights to Tirreno in most countries is coupled with a binding agreement to put the race on the main channel.

His skin looks grey on my TV,
