Tirreno - Adriatico 2022 (7.03-13.03)

[Remy55]

Still no breakaway after 1 hour of racing...looks like Pogi might win again.

 

[Samamba]

Half the peloton has been in the break at some point this first hour. Massive fight to get in it.

 

[Samamba]

There's like 25 guys in front with favorites. Bunch has split in multiple groups.

 

[Samamba]

12 man group in front now. Others slowed down. Benjamin Thomas virtual leader.

 

[Jungle Cycle]

Remco struggling??

 

[johnymax]

The finale should be exciting

 

[Jungle Cycle]

Remco struggling??

that what it said on PCS but just saw near the front getting mousete from staff..

12 man group in front now. Others slowed down. Benjamin Thomas virtual leader.

could be the winning move, unless anyone is dumb enough to work for UAE

 

[Samamba]

Are we getting 2 French solo wins in one day?

 

[Eclipse]

Nice attack from Barguil

 

[johnymax]

Would love to see Rog vs Pog on these climbs

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Two from two for UAE yesterday, two from two for French attackers today?
edit: belatedly added the spoiler tag

 

[Red Rick]

Barguil vs Thomas for the stage

 

[johnymax]

Landa vs Mas from the GC group

 

[Samamba]

Thomas will win. I don't trust Barguil.
Some GC guys need to watch out to not give him that much time because he doesn't crack that easily uphill this year.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Nothing screams Le Marche like this final climb.

 

[Eclipse]

That is a sketchy bit of road surface for this descent haha

 

[Netserk]

Reminder:

 

[Mayomaniac]

That is a sketchy bit of road surface for this descent haha

Nothing compared to some of those roads that you have in races like Coppi e Bartali. Tons of potholes on those descents.

 

[Red Rick]

True Wellens attack

 

[Samamba]

True Wellens attack

His form is completely gone (it isn't februari anymore). He was like 40th yesterday.

Alaphilippe also looks completely out of it.

 

[SafeBet]

If Pogacar decides to attack he can still catch the break, I think.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

His form is completely gone.

As always once the preseason is over. Probably will show up again in Pologne at the earliest.

 

[postmanhat]

Never knew Thomas could climb so well till this race. Always thought of him as a TTer/fast man.

 

[JosefK]

Break is doomed.
