Happy to see Van der Poel win another stage and Pellizzari getting into the leader's jersey, impressive finish from both.

Very impressive stuff by MVDP. Jorgenson was really strong as well, too bad he had to waste all his energy working for Van Aert, who couldn't win a sprint anymore if his life depended on it.

Well it means: I don't undestand in a puzzeled way. "Ich steh auf dem Schlauch!".

I wonder if he is pretty fast, or just had more left and good timing compared to the others. But he's not slow so much is clear.

van aert already seemed pressured at the top of the climb yet they take full responsibility to close it down for a sprint when they had the numbers
Well, Mvdp's just makes other riders look tactically inept:

The guy just is so deep, has power that is just dominating.. If I was a pro and showed up to a cyclocross race and saw him, just get back in the car and go to breakfast.. Why bother guy is going to destroy everyone..
Plus when he gets interviewed afterwards he always appears to have just gone grocery shopping or something routine. I find the guy amazing.

Seemed like pretty much everyone shot their shot too early. Most of the fast guys were active since the 1km banner, including Van der Poel. So I don't think Pellizzari will suddenly start winning sprints.

Yeah it's ridiculous. Visma are still living in 2020. I think everyone could see he wasn't going to win this stage. He could barely follow Jorgenson on the climb.
I think it would also be good for Van Aert if they quit putting all their eggs in the Wout basket. Now he's just becoming a perennial loser, if he's always waiting for the sprint and never delivering.
The only wheel that was important to Del Toro was Pellizzari and he blew it.. Del Toro should have had Christen spend his juice keeping him closer instead of whatever that was ..not to good. Del Toro got smoked by Ben Healy in the spirit.. Shame..
