Nice attack for a cooked guy.

 

[Raggamuffin]

Told ya

Told ya

Of course if he can't stay upright...

 

[Raggamuffin]

He was exhausted...hence the crash

Of course if he can't stay upright...

The crash is likely a result of being fatigued. Pidders has a tendency of wanting to go too fast when he's behind, which leads to making mistake later on the race. He did it in Les Gets too, where he lost the world title after parking against a tree twice.

 

[Lequack]

I think that put and end to Pidcock's chances.

But it was still a great attack.

 

[Raggamuffin]

But it was still a great attack.

Hey, absolutely! Loving this race.

Lets see if Pidders taking Phil Gaimons KOM's is going to show now

Great Race... best guy won!

 

[RedheadDane]

Great race, Pidcock better than I expected but Vanthourenhout again showing his ability on these days.

Nys faded a bit in the end but very good sixth place.

you missed the start didn't you.

 

[Raggamuffin]

Correction. The most technically consistent guy won. That better for you?

Wot
no Pidder's post race interview?

I'd say the start (and whatever happened) probably cost him the race, rather than the penultimate lap 'get off'. But a good race, and the form seems in pretty good shape. Another great ride in these conditions by Vantourenhout. Iserbyt faded badly again in these conditions.....

Gcn/Eurosport are good at that. Sometimes they cut the commentator off mid sentence while they're still summarising a bit of the race. It's annoying as well as it isn't they were pressed for time today due to another broadcast considering Macdonald has already said goodbye to the tv viewers.

Congrats Vantho!

TP represented the stripes well.

Congrats Puck!

Honsinger moved up a few spots from yesterday, but was further back on time.
