This is set up for a really exciting TT tomorrow.
Chapeau, Vansevenant!
He was so strong I think he could go for another lap.

Nice win by Vansevenant!
And also nice of him to make sure the World didn't implode by having to sprint-a-deux losers sprint against each other.

MAURI VANSEVENNENT IS THE BELGIAN ALAPHILIPE
He ended up coming in third, I think he's just about ready for the Worlds.
Yes but now they know they have to make the race as hard as possible to drop him. The hills were close after each other here, less rest. Don’t know if Mathieu can do it every lap, but the legs are good.
Wow, in an interview I actually get to hear Jungels speak in Luxembourgish rather than some broken English! 
They finish 15 minutes ago and Fausto didn't cross the line yet?
They already knew that. With Mathieu you never know, he can be absolute crap the week before and then dominate, and today he wasn't crap. He wasn't great either though. He had all the trouble in the world following Hirschi, and Hirschi is no Pogacar.
Great win by Vansevenant. Formolo got a little cocky there...
Was hoping for a nice positive surprise today, it's been since basically 13 February 2022 since we had one. Everyday since then disappointment.
I thought maybe he's building the form through deutsch tour, Canada, to this race and the Italian classics. But it's obvious now his level is just awful. Again.
It was nice to see Mauri doing so well though
That's a positive
You've already forgotten about his awesome KOM victory in Dunkerque?
Maybe he dug a tunnel under the finish line...
Not sure UCI would accept that as having finished though.
I'm, however, pretty sure the local authorities would get a little annoyed by that. "Dude, what are you doing? Stop digging holes in our roads."
Looking at his riding style he's the Belgian Escartin...
Nah, super strong today and some signs of life from Formolo.
I love it when the winner TAKES the race! NICE MV!
As opposed to when the guy finishing 2nd takes it?
TAKES the race as opposed to hoping it comes to them (waiting for it to happen).
Attack and then attack, ride hard, attack...
Okay... it's possible I thought this was the LKR thread, and was wondering what was so special about the way that winner of today's race featured there won.
Maybe Formolo should have hid under the finish line, so they couldn't tell him he was disqualified.
Formolo disqualified? For what ? He did a clean second place
He's a supertucker sucker according to the commissaires.
Looks like he interpreted the "butt must be in contact with saddle" rule somewhat... creatively.
