Paris - Roubaix 2024, one day monument, April 7

[DNP-Old]

So this is what all the fuss was about?

 

[fbjim]

I'm going to say it- this looks like it is going to be the best chicane in the history of professional cycling.

 

[Scarponi]

So what do we think haha

 

[Didinho]

I want the overhead shot back. Now.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Pidcock from last to 5th right before the chicane, class

 

[fbjim]

That was incredible. Next year instead of 29 cobbled sectors they should simply do 29 chicanes instead.

 

[Scarponi]

Absolute chaos at the back

 

[Zoetemelk-fan]

Mads puts a dampener on MvDP's cx properties in the chicane, it almost looked like the world champion was held back, but that's how it always looks in sharp turns when he has to be compared to other riders.

 

[ChewbaccaDefense]

Look at that, the world didn't end

 

[Tim Cahill]

Sepp Van Dijke

 

[Didinho]

Mathieu!

 

[dazaau]

Visma need to get new wheel and tyre suppliers

 

[fbjim]

Hearing rumors that the the riders loved that so much that the next Worlds course will consist entirely of doing laps around the chicane.

 

[iBanesto]

The race I'm watching has very little to break up

Well it is breaking up atm.

Let see if it holds.

 

[Zoetemelk-fan]

Now the trigger!

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Yeah, this is only going one way barring some ill-timed mechanicals.

 

[Didinho]

Sepp Van Dijke

They have 2 of these.

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Perfect example of a race section they should take all camera motorcycles out and replace by drones.

 

[Zoetemelk-fan]

The chicane looks beautiful.

Yes, have to admit.
Just felt similar disappointment as when they rearranged RVV. Some cornerstones that were suddenly removed for me.
But experience was just fine here.

 

[Volderke]

Thank you pedersen. Without you, the race was already over!

 

[Salvarani]

No Degenkolb

 

[Tim Cahill]

They have 2 of these.

Good Van Dijke made it!!!

Bet good money on him puncturing later in the race

 

[Scarponi]

Look at that, the world didn't end

Wasn’t a full
Peleton though

 

[Zoetemelk-fan]

Nooo Degenkolp!

 

[KOM]

Race is all but over, just praying it wont be Philipsen at this point

Thank god, couldnt have happened to a nicer guy, hopefully itll be the end of his race
