If he doesn't win this year, I don't know when he will win it. Raining, cold, tailwind. Everything is there!
It is a race you can win in so many ways. Unexpected ways, as well.

He will keep going for it whatever the result. He is a true racer and a champion.

They all were too far back at the start of the climb. Wellens needed binoculars to find pogi. And was toast before pogi even got to him.

Del Toro didn't cost him anything. Cipressa and Poggio simply aren't hard enough to drop a rider like MVDP after he had an easy ride for 260km. He had to drop him to win and he couldn't. He was mighty strong today but this race just doesn't suit him.

one man missing on cipressa, pog is a monster, don't be fooled by the victory of mvdp, pogi was way stronger, I have no idea how he could do all those efforts with his nose in the wind and that wheel sucker behind him. I'm quite convinced that the crash in sb took that 0.5% out of him that today would have come in handy, you could see that in the last part of poggio he was on the limit. I have already heard comments that mvdp was stronger today, which is not the case, you have no idea what it means to have your nose in the wind for half cipressa and almost all the poggio with those shallow gradients and high speed
