Tre Valli Varesine 2023, one day race, October 3

[Didinho]

First Belgian since Eddy Mercxk to win this race!

Remco better find a new team or it will be dom duty!

 

[Rob5091]

Chapeau van wilder - the others just looked at each other and became chumps not champs!

 

[Valv.Piti]

What an offensive performance by Primoz yet again

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Roglic riding exactly like Valverde would must make some people so confused

Mountain sprinter riding like mountain sprinter

But there were also like five guys who just did nothing

 

[Netserk]

Van Wilder
Carapaz
Vlasov
Rogla
Pogi

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Vlasov wins a sprint? Got to love then end of the season.

Well he has to show Denk that he deserves to be co-leader for the Tour.

 

[Krzysztof_O]

What a ride by Van Wilder. They let him go initially but his ride to the finish was really impressive, gaining time after initial surge. Teddy and Rogla off the podium, who would have thought?

 

[CyclistAbi]

Roglic riding exactly like Valverde would must make some people so confused

Why would you pin point it to Rogla? All of them raced to lose.

 

[proffate]

I have to admit I thought he was just going for TV exposure, then I thought he might win if they raced too negatively, but the winning margin was undeniable.

 

[CyclistAbi]

Lombardia fully open now. On top of that Rogla doesn't look any weaker then Pogi. Sprint.

Looking forward to Saturday.

Not hard enough. It was always a possibility someone would mug them on that sort of profile.

 

[Screecher]

Pogacar making so many strategic errors... pointless attacks, closing gaps on his own, sprinting early... does he just not care about the race result or something?

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Honestly we may get the first flat sprint between Rog and Pog in a long ass time.

Conclusion: the fastest rider in a group with both of them is... not from Slovenia.

 

[EddyMazzoleni]

Great win by Van Wilder

Pogi not looking too great honeslty, but Rogla should be more aggressive in this situation

 

[CyclistAbi]

What an offensive performance by Primoz yet again

Well, it does take an offensive type of rider, to beat Pogi in a flat sprint, at the end of a classic.

Was never said for which place. We got what we paid for.

 

[Escarabajo]

Pogi is just fine. No way he was going to pull Rogla. Not again. He will save himself for Lombardia.

Why would you pin point it to Rogla? All of them raced to lose.

Not Pogi initially. And as he and Roglic were the favourites, they were the ones with the responsibility of holding it together.

Just like it was the case with Valverde and he so often managed to screw it up.

Fortunately, Saturday will likely be a different story.

 

[Netserk]

Van Wilder
Carapaz
Vlasov
Rogla
Pogi
Woods
Zana
Izagirre
Rodriguez
O'Connor
Mas

 

[CyclistAbi]

Should have go with Tratnik today.

You make no sense, and no.

ILAAAAAAAN VAAAAAN WEEEEELLLLLDDDEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRE. THE PROTEGE OF MASNADA, THE FORUM MASCOT !!!!!!!!

Nah, pin pointing this on Rogla is in my opinion a rather biased view. Both Slovenians are equally responsible for not winning today. Better yet, other riders involved, riders not that good in sprint, should try earlier today. Like Carapaz did and profited from it.

 

[Wvv]

Well done Ilan! Very nice win.

Stop this merger bollocks. Let the QuickStep team remain, they are still doing a more than decent job throughout the season. As if this Van Wilder isn't an awesome asset to Remco's grand tour selection, and a good team leader on his own day.

(Yes I know, there is much more on the table. Just hate to see a traditional, even legendary team disappear.)

I'm just saying he rode exactly like Valverde would have done.
