[MountainGoatW]

Come on Wout!! What deserved win finally!

 

[Eddy Evenepoel]

It’s always a sad day when Richard Plugge is happy

 

[ppanther92]

Silly Van Aert not dropping back to group 2 lmao

There was only one user saying that tbf and he was trolling (I hope)

 

[Bavarianrider]

What a dark day for cycling.

 

[Brullnux]

Good win. Calmly done, experience tells.

Honestly, I think he was stronger over the last 100km than Pogacar.

 

[MJR]

Best day of Wout's racing life.

 

[Izzyeviel]

Wout van Aert will win this bike race.

He called it.

 

[YavorD]

Silly Van Aert not dropping back to group 2 lmao

Silly Van Aert for working with Pogacar as well.

 

[Eddy Evenepoel]

Crazy af. Finally big Wout won a monument! I think everyone will be happy with his win which is by the way deserved for crowning his career.

It’s his second

 

[Devil's Elbow]

This was also the best chance Pogacar could have asked for, even with the chase before Arenberg not having to deal with Van der Poel is a unique opportunity. He may have to wait for this generation of Flandriens to grow old before he completes the monument quintuple.

 

[Gratemans]

Ok this was pretty beautiful

 

[ChewbaccaDefense]

Pozzato never won that!!!

 

[ppanther92]

Don't even know what Pogacar was doing there.

Having nothing left or what line do you think would have helped him to overcome a sprint gap of 10-20m?

 

[RobertCrawley]

I am verklempt, I have to admit.

 

[Krzysztof_O]

Congrats to mighty Wout on finally winning PR! Pogacar wasnt strong enough today, close but no cigar. Bad luck for Mattieu but this is Paris-Roubaix, he fought well

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Tbh I completely lost interest once it was clear that all the mechanicals weren't going to have any impact and it was just between two riders and teams that I have zero interest in seeing win, but congratulations to van Aert for finally getting the proverbial monkey off his back and finally winning that cobblestone that had been missing from his résumé for years.

 

[KoopaCycling]

You see. So much crying, it's unbearable to follow the races in those trheats

Not gonna lie, was not expecting such a perfect sprint from WVA. hoping for it, happy as bleep cause of it

 

[Didinho]

Wout’s best sprint in years.

Now they will say nothing about Graava system.

 

[noob]

The way we screamed in this room OMG

 

[Skalman]

Pog didn't give himself the best chance, should have been on the wheel.

Would not have mattered Wout a class better today

 

[Tim Cahill]

Silly Van Aert for working with Pogacar as well.

Disgusting, never pull on the front

Bissegger the moral winner of the race.

 

[Salvarani]

Pog didn't give himself the best chance, should have been on the wheel.

Van Aert didnt take another turn, so he was stuck on the front

Dont think it would have mattered here at all though

Van Aert followed really well on the last sectors and looked very strong

 

[nightowl]

What a beautiful race, and what an amazing winner. Genuine tears in my eyes

 

[Coppi-Bartali]

YESSS WOUT!!! cycling is back, at least for today

You talk as if hes is a rider of Total Energies and not Wout, who perpetrated the 2022 Tour with that indescribable Visma.

 

[canina82]

Pog didn't give himself the best chance, should have been on the wheel.

Played it like an amateur but his legs were gone though
