This is chaos already and we havent even hit Arenberg

 

[Jumbo Visma Fan :)]

Roubaix never disappoints, only this race can provide this much fun 140 km to go.

When you see a crash like that you just have to thank heavens no GC riders lost time.

 

[Samamba]

15 guys left in the 2nd group lmao

 

[mortand]

Terpstra's got it in the bag

 

[glassmoon]

so VdP still 1 min behind the 2nd group? Mohoric missing from the 2nd group too? chaos.

 

[Salvarani]

Langeveld... he is great in this race

When you see a crash like this it's definitely De Scheldeprijs' fault

 

[Jumbo Visma Fan :)]

Dear lord we need an army roundup of all the riders locations.

 

[titan31]

Surely that VDP group isn't 1 25 back. They were 20/30 seconds behind on the cobbles pre the group 1 crash

 

[Tim Cahill]

Big 'ECW' chants as Lewis Askey rides past

What can be done?

 

[Cance > TheRest]

QS has finally woken up for the classics campaign.

Big crash in group one blocked the road and slowed them up.

 

[StryderHells]

That was an awesome bike change by Merlier

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Bodnar in the chase group for turpstra. Kanter is the movistar rider

 

[glassmoon]

MvdP group still slower than Ganna's

 

[JosefK]

Brief shot of MvDP in a group with a couple Ineos riders. Not sure which group.

Wouldn't have expected them to lose that much though tbh. Must have dropped 40 seconds in that crash

Well the 2nd group are the ones who managed to get through the crash without much delay. Most of the former 1st peloton has now merged with the 2nd peloton to become the 3rd group because they were all held up by the crash.

Ide shcelling with no glasses

 

[Carrick-On-Seine]

MvdP group still slower than Senechal's

 

[Salvarani]

They got caught in the aftermath with riders and cars in the way.

 

[Armchair Cyclist]

So did the VdP group catch the non-fallers in the Ineos group? Did anyone from the Ineos group other than the 16 chasers and Terpstra escape the Turgis crash?

Intense strategy meetings coordinated with analytics teams and data contractors revealed a key metric: It's better to be ahead than behind.
