I understand riglix, just no clue why a "j" is added as last

Exited to see riglixj and hindley start their seasons soon. Will be interesting to see the level compared to 2025.

Be careful when you tease like that. Some might get emotional.

Yes you are right, but if Vermeersch and/or Pellizzari can get a top 10/top 5 result. It would be very good. For the likes of Herzog, Boichis I just want them to finish the Race and be a good help in the First Parts of the Race. Maybe one Rider will be present in the breakaway and can then survive around Place 25-40 - which would be a huge result for These riders.

Very sad that van Gils is injured.

Well Vermeersch got the top 5 Boichis was in the break and came home in place 25. Herzog finished the race. All in all again a good result for Bora.

Side note: the juniors started today there race season with a short time trail in spain, tomorrow the first road race. Karl Herzog will not start as he started today in a MTB XCO UCI Junior series event (19th) - I like that they try to get complete riders and let them do other disciplines then only road racing.

For me, this was Vermeersch's best physical performance of his entire career, better than Flanders or Roubaix top 10s, considering the elevation but especially the level of demand imposed by UAE. I imagined him at most reaching the level of what Van Aert did today.

I think the Performance of Giulio was also ok, considering that this kind of race is far from his strength atm

 

[CyclistAbi]

Vermeersch finishing fifth on such race is IMHO great result.

 

[MLKarlos]

I really think they did a lot of TT progress the last two years

What happened to Hindley yesterday? Crash or could Not follow?

 

[Faserr]

It was a lot about positioning. He was not in the front at the beginning of the gravel section.

Good team work at PN.

What a crazy stage in France today. In the end RBBH missed out on the stage win, but the team delivered an outstanding performance. In the stage races, the team has already been incredibly strong this year. Of course, there was some luck involved today, but the team worked at the front all day and was rewarded in the end. Huge praise to the whole team for what they achieved today.
