UCI Road World Championships 21st-29th September 2019 - Yorkshire - Race Thread.

[TourOfSardinia]

Pidcock was down too!

 

[Faserr]

A lot of crashes

 

[RedheadDane]

Bit concerned for the Estonian (I think) rider, who had to practically be carried over to the side.
Didn't look good for the Swedish guy either.

And... what the *** happened with Hindsgaul? His bike (and him) was the wrong way.

 

[SafeBet]

Matteo Jorgenson is the next Clement Champoussin is the next... has been dropped.

 

[JosephK]

Looks like the breakaway group is becoming less organized on the hill.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

and then there were 4

 

[JosephK]

It's closing up again.

 

[Faserr]

Strong headwind on the climb

 

[DNP-Old]

Philipsen behind.

 

[More Strides than Rides]

Germany and Norway force the split

 

[DNP-Old]

Higuita is there.

 

[JosephK]

Game over for the Americans. Edit: Gap is shrinking again with 39 km. left.

 

[postmanhat]

Damm. They've stopped working together. Going to get caught fairly quickly at this rate

 

[Broccolidwarf]

I do not have pictures (for some odd reason, danish TV only starts transmitting in 35 minutes.... just about when they hit the finish line)...... but it sounds like the weather (which will be even worse Sunday) is making a huge difference, and makes the race very difficult to control.

 

[Pantani_lives]

In spite of the small gap I don't think there will be a complete regrouping. A small group might still make the jump to the leaders.

 

[Brullnux]

Sunday should be good.

 

[JosephK]

Bjerg makes his move at 22 km. but the group doesn't let him go.

 

[Sestriere]

I know it has been said many times, but it is just weird when pro rideers coming from a Grand Tour are riding together with first-year U23s... Sajnok (finished Vuelta) currently in the lead.

 

[Samamba]

Bissegger to win this

Or Pidcock obviously

 

[Pantani_lives]

Now is the time to jump to the front.

 

[yaco]

Front group finishes together and it's out of SaJnok and Groves - And Sajnok attacks - So much for my prediction.

 

[Samamba]

Its happening

 

[DNP-Old]

What on earth are the Netherlands doing

 

[postmanhat]

Why aren't Belgium chasing?

 

[DNP-Old]

Why aren't Belgium chasing?

Dewulf has been in the break all day and the only way for Van Wilder to win is to go solo.
