Tour de Romandie, April 29th - May 4th

[Sciatic]

I just hopped in from the Frankfurt race that had just finished, thanks for the update on what I had missed!

all the news that's fit to read

 

[Netserk]

Almeida knows that he must follow Evenepoel.

 

[AmRacer]

Lennert for GC

 

[Unterlenkerfahrend]

Fortunato and Don Pedro already training for a Giro breakaway masterclass, you love to see it.

 

[Rou]

UAE are giving van Etvelt another WT GC win. Well done.

 

[AmRacer]

UAE are giving van Etvelt another WT GC win. Well done.

Remco gives van E another GC win

 

[Peyroteo94]

UAE are giving van Etvelt another WT GC win. Well done.

He will drop like a stone in 2 days

 

[peterfin]

Remco being a nice domestique for Lecerf was maybe the masterplan?

No, just making sure they have a 2nd rider for the GC. Maybd not a bad strategy but I doubt it was the plan.

 

[Red Rick]

Lecerf is just not a very credible threat.

 

[Peyroteo94]

The problem is: who is gonna be within a minute behind Almeida in 2 days?

 

[Didinho]

Baudin the fastest? He was really explosive when I saw him on the recon of Brabantse on the Hertstraat. Against 4 smaller climbers.

 

[AmRacer]

Lecerf is just not a very credible threat.

Sucking wheels he does

 

[Rou]

He will drop like a stone in 2 days

He was top three on Jais behind Pog. If his form is decent I expect a good level on Thyon 2000.

 

[Samamba]

Lecerf loses 2 minutes in the TT, Juanpe too, Fortunato 3. Van Eetvelt 1'30,, Baudin not sure he has no real references but he won't be a threat either

 

[Peyroteo94]

Remco just knows he doesn't have it in the mountains so he is making Almeida lose. So predictable.

 

[Netserk]

Why the need to push Almeida??

 

[Samamba]

Sucking wheels he does

I mean why would he ride. He can sandbag and win here... Others need to keep riding, definitely Van Eetvelt.

 

[Andre]

Lecerf is just not a very credible threat.

he can surprise you

 

[Red Rick]

Almeida should stop pulling immediately.

 

[GenericBoonenFan]

Remco gives van E another GC win

Remco said his only goal this week is the ITT win

 

[Peyroteo94]

He was top three on Jais behind Pog. If his form is decent I expect a good level on Thyon 2000.

Comparing apples with oranges. This stage is the hardest stage this season until now.

 

[Tim Cahill]

At least 1 of these on probability alone must have some proper form, you can't give them 2 minutes lads otherwise there might be trouble. They all made it over the climb so it's not like they are going to just drop like a stone on Thyon.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Why the need to push Almeida??

Probably hoping Almeida will control. It‘s a bad bluff by QS right now.

 

[Salvarani]

When does the group start playing tactical games for the stage?

 

[YavorD]

Lecerf loses 2 minutes in the TT, Juanpe too, Fortunato 3. Van Eetvelt 1'30,, Baudin not sure he has no real references but he won't be a threat either

On 17 kilometres?
I doubt. I think it's gonna be half of your predicted gaps.
