Ronde van Vlaanderen 2026, monument, April 5 (men's)

[Bertram Wooster]

A problem addressed by Fuglsang last week, was also decisive yesterday: the motor(s) in front of the leaders.

It was decisive in E3, almost in DDV, and actually, it is decisive in a lot of races.

Do you think Mads would have dropped Mathieu, or win a sprint?

He did win a sprint, against MvdP and WvA - seriously dude, go find the highlights from the race

it was unbiased and overall pretty unimportant this year , although their predictable movement was exploitable

i dont think thats true

you still need someone to drive the selection and a strong team to control before that

e3 , gw and dwars disprove it

Perhaps, but in the end MVDP did win E3, half-assed his pulls in GW and WvA is not an alien in Dwars DV.
But yes E3 is a valid point, on the other hand he did easily solo Omloop?

Truth be told, I didn't get to watch E3 and Omloop in full so you can take my opinion with a ping of salt.
