Ronde van Vlaanderen - Tour des Flandres 2023, one day monument, April 2 (men's)

[Samamba]

The camera moto thought: let me make sure there's atleast an early break.

 

[MartinGT]

Uno X about to bring the break back............................again

I love the fight for the breakaway but these attempts look hopeless.

Gloves off!

 

[Nick2413]

Just woke up and turned it on.. Actually wondering if some sort of pressure was given from the race directors or something for UAE and Jumbo not to eliminate MVP from the race.

I love the fight for the breakaway but these attempts look hopeless.

Thing is, after all this infighting we're getting very close to where cobbles and hills start; people aren't going to get any respite prior to heading into the meat of the race. Definitely a recipe for a hard one.

 

[MartinGT]

Do we finally have a break?

 

[Jumbo Visma Fan :)]

Why is there no break yet?

 

[DNP-Old]

The break escapes just before we're going to the first cobbles and first Kwaremont. They're not going anywhere.

 

[Strawberry_Jams]

mountain biker colombo in the break.. won a few short track world cups last year

 

[Volderke]

Do we finally have a break?

Technically yes, but how long will it last…? Cobbles now, hills coming, so I predict it will be relentless from now on…

 

[Netserk]

EF make their first move!

 

[MartinGT]

Merlier going off the front now

 

[Jumbo Visma Fan :)]

Merlier follows

 

[MartinGT]

JV going now too.

 

[Netserk]

Merlier and Rutsch with a gap.

 

[Peyroteo94]

This is brutal. What a race!! Hope for a upset to show there isn't invencibles in cycling!

 

[Netserk]

Jumbo and UAE tried, but failed.

 

[MartinGT]

Pogi draining the lizard

 

[dobrien]

EF make their first move!

I have a feeling Powless is going to have a career day today.

 

[Netserk]

Houle (Israel) in between. Merlier and Rutsch have made it across.

 

[MartinGT]

Trentin and Wout having a chat on the front.

 

[Volderke]

Anyone wanting to avoid being dropped later in the race, should still try to make a move. But it seems everyone had enough and is a bit tired (finally).

Pogi draining the lizard

Such an awful phrase
