Paris-Roubaix 2026, one day monument, April 12

[The bald fraud]

MvdP not giving up!

 

[jono]

No one deserves a win more than Wout but no way is this gonna be that fair

Wout deserves exact the palmares he has, just like any other rider.

But I hope he wins at this point.

 

[Revelation]

He's come second before and PR is a lottery. This is silly.

It was 15 seconds, you really think the other teams we're worrying about Vermeesch and would've floored it if he dropped back?

 

[Gigs_98]

With another MVP solo?

No with Pogacar and MvdP both trying to catch a group of 2nd tier favorites for 100km. Like a rerun of 2016.

 

[YavorD]

A

Good karma also. Riding for himself to get a top5

He didn't have to come back.

 

[Salvarani]

Complete BS

He did his job and did what he was told

It was better for him to stay ahead there.

Bad opinions all around right now.

 

[Brullnux]

Jordi Meeus pulling back to his team leader

Red Bull should definitely have done two in the front group/chased. Pithie was not going to get a podium from there, no way

 

[canina82]

Are people forgetting Pogacar did a 10 km solo on his own to close a 20" gap?
Visma should definitely work! It's the best chance for Wout in his entire career

 

[Rackham]

To all the people declaring it over.

Under normal circumstances - when everyone is at their best - both Pedersen, WvA, Laporte and Pithie are faster on the line than Pogacar, and Stuyven is not far off.

Problem for Pedersen is he has not been able to maintain his sprint due to the injury.

Pog will ride them all off his wheel long before they reach the finish.

 

[Red Rick]

I reckon Ronald Koeman would be better than the average DS in the World Tour, and he thinks Wout Weghorst is fit for international football

 

[tobydawq]

Politt pulling for Van der Poel.

 

[Leinster]

Does Alpecin have nobody in between to help vdP?

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Front group is riding half-assed here, good for Ganna and Meeus

 

[Tim Cahill]

Ganna *** on cobbles and positioning but lethal form on the flats

 

[Red Rick]

Ganna will fianlly start entering cobbles sections in the top 10

 

[KoopaCycling]

remco in roubaix would be pure cinema.
His haters would have a field day and so would those that are a fan.

 

[jono]

Does Alpecin have nobody in between to help vdP?

Their team is awful. Only del Grosso and Philipsen caught up to van der Poel in the whole 3 minutes he was wrecked on Arenberg.

 

[Boehmand]

Visma is in a good position here, if the groups stays together for a while.

Ganna and Meeus back, great comebacks - RB now also have 2

 

[noob]

Wout deserves exact the palmares he has, just like any other rider.

But I hope he wins at this point.

No one waited the two years he got a mechanical at PR though. He'd have a win or two by now had people treated him like Pog back then.

 

[canina82]

People should compare Florian to Jasper. The difference in team working

 

[ChewbaccaDefense]

The one thing that likely happened is that Pog didn't get to fuel well, during his chase, and then went directly into Aremberg, so he may have a calorie deficit.

 

[Unterlenkerfahrend]

I need a Bisseger masterclass now.

 

[JRanton]

If only there weren’t any cobbles then Ganna could win…

 

[jono]

No one waited the two years he got a mechanical at PR though. He'd have a win or two by now had people treated him like Pog back then.

Nobody waits even for Pog with 15km to go.

 

[KoopaCycling]

Nope. They should sit and do nothing. Only Pogacar should ride. The rest should save as much of their legs for when Pogacar goes.
