I think Soudal believes more in Remco than Magnier.

MSR? Cmon.

 

[Peyroteo94]

MSR? Cmon.

C'mon Salvarani. Who is Magnier? What did he win?

Soudal will do nothing.

MSR doesnt suit Remco at all.

In the future Magnier is way more suited to it and can sprint.

No team wants to help UAE and Pog.

 

[Salvarani]

Like look in the top 10 for MSR this year.

If not for Pog. Matthews, Groves or Cort wins this race.

And in the group... Kooij, Girmay, Strong, Teunissen, Aranburu.

Magnier has a way bigger chance to win MSR in the future for Soudal than Remco Evenepoel.

I don't agree (of course it is not LBL), RVV and PR don't suit Remco but MSR is a good race for him.

Do you think Remco can't be better than Ganna?

 

[Salvarani]

I disagree wholeheartedly.

 

[Salvarani]

I think Remco enters Cipressa at like the 60th wheel.

 

[Peyroteo94]

I disagree wholeheartedly.

MSR is where he can do a sneaky attack. RVV is a race when the strongest always wins.

Maybe, maybe not.

What are you actually basing it on when saying it is a good race for him?

I dont think the fight for position, twisty roads and the technical parts suit him at all.

Shallow climbs and the most important thing. He can get an advantage from the battle between MVP and Pogacar.

The one-day races he has dominated in and won doesnt have shallow climbs.

Again, how is this a good race for him?

ORR

 

[Salvarani]

ORR

Totally different as it is many repeated efforts. Shorter climbs and steeper at some parts.

You cant compare ORR to MSR. LMFAO.

ORR route in Paris compares better to some Belgium one-day races he has won and the most recent win he had.

 

[Red Rick]

Yeah there's a reason Matthews has 5 Sanremo's from all his participations before Pogacar.

Talk about taking things out of context.

But Cipressa and Poggio are good climbs for Remco. There is zero doubt about that. If Ganna almost followed Pogacar, Remco is obviously able to do the same. One thing I agree with you, positioning can be a problem for Remco. But this year, Pogacar wasn't able to be at the front so we never know what can happen.

Pog doesnt need him at all in this race. That was just a ridiculous statement. It doesnt change anything for Pog. Like if he is there he is there, but it is not much more to it. Soudal cant do anything and it doesnt suit him very much.

They have a bigger chance of winning it from a sprint with Magnier in the future.

Do you think Soudal working with UAE before Cipressa (both teams with one man working) is not good for Pogacar?

 

[Salvarani]

Do you think Soudal working with UAE before Cipressa (both teams with one man working) is not good for Pogacar?

Really?

Multiple teams will have like 5 guys from each team trying to fight each other for position. Like every year. They are always spread out all over the road trying to fight other trains.

This doesnt matter at all.

Alpecin,Ineos will go hard before Cipressa just like they did it this year.

Why mate? Do you think a race faster is not better for Pogacar (even if every team will have 5 riders)?

Omg.

 

[Cycling111]

Do you think Remco can't be better than Ganna?

No, not in the sprint. Not even better than a cooked Pogacar at Amstel.
Furthermore, Remco's a poor descender; he could be left behind at Poggio. I remember his descent the Galibier last year, was terrible.
