Ronde van Vlaanderen 2025, one day monument, April 6 (men's)

[KoopaCycling]

time to recalibrate. Pogacar wins (congratz), time to focus for second in the chasing group.

 

[Netserk]

If you’re Trek here, you’ve got to have Stuyven absolutely 100% bury himself to at least TRY and close the gap, because Mass is the clear favorite in a sprint.

Far too late for that.

There's no threat chasing them, best they can get is 2nd and 3rd.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Race is done, just sit on these lot and say you've got teammates behind

 

[Berniece]

Mvdp is bonking? He’s not even doing pulls. Seems like he has a hunger knock, cramps or his crash is hindering?

My guess is hunger knock, he followed everything easily the whole time. And now barely able to follow WVA

 

[Peyroteo94]

they said vdp is best classics rioder,lmao.in what sport-

It is not even close LMAO.

 

[AmRacer]

Tadej 1 -1 Mathieu
Can't wait for PR

 

[Berniece]

Pogi lucky again, what’s new

 

[ChasingPotatoes]

they said vdp is best classics rioder,lmao.in what sport-

We”ll have to wait until next week when the mighty wva will crush them all!

 

[E_F_]

MvdP takes the prize for DOTR (dunce of the race)

 

[Unterlenkerfahrend]

Pog will smoke them on Kwaremont. MVDP with some brainless racing so far and Pedersen racing for third, yikes.

Easy call.

 

[BubbaChuck]

jonas is next,lmao.

 

[Leinster]

Far too late for that.

It’s too late NOW. The time to do it was over the top of the Paterberg.

 

[Escarabajo]

That sprint for second and third is going to be good!!!

 

[Peyroteo94]

47 seconds

 

[ChewbaccaDefense]

My guess is hunger knock, he followed everything easily the whole time. And now barely able to follow WVA

I saw Wout eating more than either him or Pog. Maybe Pog doesn't need it, but Mathieu clearly did.

 

[Medvind]

This year he didn't even need a leadout on Kwaremont, he just weared them down, trusting his superior enginge to do the work.

This answers the question if there were any doubt. Pog is the best classics rider, no contest anymore.

 

[iBanesto]

Pogi lucky again, what’s new

Better to be lucky than dumb like some other riders today.

 

[Medvind]

Van Aert will be lethal in PR. He is in a good mental place after this.

 

[jono]

Well im definately looking forward to P-R alot more than I allready was...

I don't think Pog top 5s next week.

 

[pelotonIQ]

MvDP atleast made it interesting until the final hills but Pogacar showed him who is the boss.

 

[dazaau]

jonas is next,lmao.

I saw that too lol

 

[Salvarani]

He crushed them today

 

[limak_]

When it comes to tactics, I could not expect any less from Mathieu van der Poel

Was there any possible scenerio in which the race would look any different that it looks atm? I hoped Mathieu could stick to Pog cause he looked great today. But 2023 showed us clearly that Ronde favours Pogi above Mathieu massively

 

[KoopaCycling]

Looking forward for Roubaix. Flanders too much a climbers course for WVA. Hopefully no bad luck this year, and he can actually battle for victory. Surprisingly enough. (if he has today's legs). That is something in and of itself. Would not have believed it couple of weeks ago. However this also proves WVA should stop focusing on Flanders an dstart focusing on less hilly races like MSR. (I would still race Flanders, just not focus my season on it, if i'm WVA, luck can always shine on your side after all.)
