Paris-Roubaix 2023, one day monument, April 9 (men's)

[Devil's Elbow]

Van Aert needs to split the group again on one of these sectors before Alpecin decide it's a good idea to have Vermeersch and/or Philipsen put in some attacks now that the peloton and Laporte essentially are done.

 

[ChewbaccaDefense]

All of Jumbo had the tire pressure system (except Wout)...only Wout left. Not the best advertising.

 

[jono]

Percent chance that anyone outside the front group gets in the mix before the end?

 

[Andre]

Should Jasper work in the group? I think he could be saved. He has a way to win this

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Peloton trolling Laporte.

where did you read this? Didn't they only announce Affini, van Baarle and Laporte to use it?!

And the way Degenkolb looks so far is certainly a fantastic advertisement for the system

 

[Mayomaniac]

Peloton trolling Laporte.

Looks like the big brain helmet isn't working for him...

 

[Boehmand]

Walscheid waving at spectators while riding a pavee in the front group of PR, tells me he is in good shape

The technology to make Roubaix not be a glorified lottery has not been invented yet it appears

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Asgreen DNF

 

[Tim Cahill]

Movistar-Quickstep making the big selection again with a top shelf pre-emptive move

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Of course Politt is the guy working in the peloton.

 

[Red Rick]

Laporte is my #1 candidate now to do an epic bike throw into the random field right now

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Belgian Pozzato isolated

 

[ChewbaccaDefense]

Patrick Lefevere just ate a small child, and kicked a dog.

I do hope that wasn't at another restaurant...

The last report I read (maybe yesterday or the day before), indicated Wout was the only one not riding it. Maybe that changed?

 

[Red Rick]

You can see Lampaert wondering at what restaurant Lefevere is eating today

 

[Valv.Piti]

Belgian Pozzato isolated

When was the last time Pozzato put his nose in the wind in the classics? 2006 Flanders slaving away for peak Tommeke?

Van Aert just blew the race open on Haveluy

 

[Didinho]

If I was Alpecin I would put Philipsen behind Wout, let him close some gaps if he doesn't want to work.

 

[Pirazziattacks]

Quickstep slowing things down in the peloton like they've got someone at the front.

 

[glassmoon]

Percent chance that anyone outside the front group gets in the mix before the end?

i'd say zero

 

[Tobi]

Terrible classic season for quick step

 

[Monte Serra]

The last report I read (maybe yesterday or the day before), indicated Wout was the only one not riding it. Maybe that changed?

Van Baarle, Laporte and Affini are using it. Rest of the team isn't.

Drie van de zeven Jumbo-Visma-renners met veelbesproken bandendrukregelaar in Roubaix

Jumbo-Visma heeft laten weten dat Christophe Laporte, Edoardo Affini en Dylan van Baarle morgen met de bandendrukregelaar van Gravaa in Parijs-Roubaix zullen rijden. Wout van Aert heeft ervoor gekozen om voorlopig niet gebruik te maken van de nieuwe KAPS-technologie. Met de bandendrukregelaar...

Didn't you claim Jumbo's classics squad was better without him during opening weekend?
