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

[Escarabajo]

Does anybody believe that the crash slowed down MVDP?

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Jorge blowing up again

 

[Stablo]

Screw Poggie, not normal. Period.

 

[Salvarani]

Jorge bonked

 

[E_F_]

Probably none of this would have happened if it wasn't for that crash taking out UAE's team strength.

 

[jono]

Does anybody believe that the crash slowed down MVDP?

Seems obvious.

 

[scribers]

Does anybody believe that the crash slowed down MVDP?

Yes. He should have quite a lot more than the three with him. But he’s sitting on

 

[Red Rick]

Does anybody believe that the crash slowed down MVDP?

I believe closing gaps because he positioned himself too far back several times definitely affected Van der Poel.

 

[Netserk]

Lol People talking about tactics... he clearly cooked everyone. According Boonen, "Head and Shoulders"

Both can be true. He is the strongest, and they didn't ride as they should given that.

 

[Berniece]

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

You would think he learned after losing a WC

 

[meat puppet]

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

Especially if he assaults the sprint for second

 

[ChasingPotatoes]

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

I expect mvdp to easily win, before pedersen, wva and stuyven.

Luck merchant is also wasting energy to be at the front all the time and did that alone a lot of times. He is on a different level.

 

[ChewbaccaDefense]

Does anybody believe that the crash slowed down MVDP?

Maybe, but it didn't look like he actually hit the deck. He had a softer fall than the others.

 

[Salvarani]

You are damn right and Boonen too

 

[pelotonIQ]

I think Pedersen 2nd and MvDP 3rd.

 

[red_flanders]

I feel like Pogi may have this.

 

[Salvarani]

He pulled more than anyone

He is so lucky, just amazing!!

"Wasting energy"

Riding hard on the parts of the course that favor him massively over everyone else.

 

[Medvind]

Pog can just do those hard efforts again and again, and eventually nobody can follow anymore. MVDP was great until 240k, then he was finished.

 

[Salvarani]

GOAT wins

Congrats, Pog!!

 

[Red Rick]

Sub 6 hour RVV

 

[Samu Cuenca]

You would think he learned after losing a WC

But he's also won multiple shower heads over the years.

 

[KOM]

Nice tough of the helmet Tadej, im sure youre just in shock 😂

 

[ChewbaccaDefense]

That's a lot of ground and climbs to cover in under 6 hours.
