Paris-Roubaix 2025, one day monument, April 13 (men)

[iBanesto]

Blood on Pogacar's left wrist due to his watch?

 

[AmRacer]

Pogi hurt his hand at his car

 

[Leinster]

Just tuning in . interesting scenario.

Im talking about the black shorts of course.

Black shorts, pink sunnies, and vent-tuft all in effect.

 

[pastronef]

I'd rather watch a drama where I can't figure out the ending than this rinse and repeat farse

it's 50 km to go, a crash in z bend, a puncture, a bonk can happen. we don't know who of the 3 wins

 

[Panda Claws]

Ah I didn't know that WVA crashed on that same knee again. Probably has something to do with it because he really shouldn't have looked like that.

 

[Eddy Evenepoel]

Pogacar is brilliant, but its also great for the sport of cycling that even he can get stuck in a position like today where his opponent clearly have the upper hand. Alpecin might go 1-2 for the second year in a row, its almost unbelievable how good they are in this race.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Monster Pevele coming up...

 

[rghysens]

One thing I want to say, Pogacar is delivering big time! There is no doubt he has a chance of winning this race in the future!

You won´t have to wait that long.

 

[ChasingPotatoes]

Last part of mons en pevele + the little rise with tailwind after that secteur is ideal to attack.

 

[Stubb]

Didi Pog fall in the recon? Saw some sratches on his left arm.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Gap is static and has been for a long time, one bout of misfortune and it could all come back. No copium I swear.

 

[Salvarani]

Monster Pevele coming up...

Tell me you are american without telling me you are american

 

[YavorD]

Pogacar is brilliant, but its also great for the sport of cycling that even he can get stuck in a position like today where his opponent clearly have the upper hand. Alpecin might go 1-2 for the third year in a row, its almost unbelievable how good they are in this race.

Fixed that for you.

 

[Eddy Evenepoel]

Is there any way to find out how it’s looking behind the Kung/Teunissen group?

 

[Andy262]

Pog needs to lose Phillipsen and go mano a mano

 

[Eddy Evenepoel]

Fixed that for you.

Thanks. I was actually thinking third but don’t know why I wrote second

 

[proffate]

Well yeah cause they all want the fastest tyres. Same with crashes, they compensate on everything to just go faster cause if one team does it they all need to.

That doesn't line up with their use of tire inserts, which are only there to prevent flats (questionably effective, though) and actually sap watts.

Alpecin does seem to have figured out the secret sauce.

 

[Leinster]

It must be ferocious to ride this part of this race. Every time you come out of a cobble sector, there’s another sign saying “You have to do that again in another 4.7km.”

 

[scribers]

There’s so much Alpecin here my hair started growing

 

[Eddy Evenepoel]

Pog needs to lose Phillipsen and go mano a mano

The second he drops Philipsen VDP can just sit on and try to let Philipsen come back.

 

[noob]

it's 50 km to go, a crash in z bend, a puncture, a bonk can happen. we don't know who of the 3 wins

Never expected to cheer for Philipsen, but it's not gonna happen.

 

[iBanesto]

Pogacar to finish 2nd because Philipsen get relegated for deviating off his sprint line.

 

[Sciatic]

These attacks from afar seemed so exciting years ago, now it just kills much of the race dynamic. Obviously there's still excitement with these 3, but it gets to be like match races.

 

[Netserk]

Give him some rope, let him push it now. Then after the tempo drops for a bit, bang!

 

[pastronef]

Never expected to cheer for Philipsen, but it's not gonna happen.

I don't cheer Alpecin. but it'll be difficult for Pog
