Volta a Catalunya, 23-29 March 2026

[RedheadDane]

Interesting to see how Vingegaard is more like a V from behind, Remco a U.

Makes sense that Vingegaard looks like a V.
Though, by that logic, I suppose Evenepoel should look like an E.

 

[Peter von]

Almeida back and UAE start pulling

They took their sweet time hitting the front after g2 and g3 merged.
Maybe they didn’t realize what had happened.

But Mcnulty deserves a raise.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Reminded me of Thomas bridging to Sagan/Froome on that flat tour stage, lad on the front was clearly dying

 

[fenns]

noone can convince me Jonas wouldn't do well in classics if he put his mind to it

 

[Extinction]

Tear up the script

 

[Red Rick]

Roglic left Visma too early.

He had so much left to teach to young padawn Vingegaard.

 

[Netserk]

Now TNT are one of their famous breaks waffling on about Rhino poachers

what do you call a rhino and a little yellow fish ?

 

[Red Rick]

I think it's mainly about timing and preperation cycles. Liege comes after his main spring block. Lombardia is mega late in the season when he's decompressed from the Vuelta.

El-if-I-know?

 

[Extinction]

Vingegaard should honor his class and work with Evenepoel.

 

[Netserk]

El-if-I-know?

cabeza de carrera

 

[Tim Cahill]

El-if-I-know?

No wait that's an elephant and rhino, wrong joke

 

[Hugh Januss]

Go for it real racing.

Really stupid racing from Remco, Vingo is probably just sitting there going WTF all we had to do was ride with our teams and put time into Almeida.

 

[houtdffan]

can we get the moto away from the front of the peloton?

 

[Tim Cahill]

Will come back I think but peloton will be very reduced, good signs for Gordon

Nah, adds spice to the soup.

 

[Netserk]

can we get the moto away from the front of the peloton?

better to just also get it in front of the duo

 

[Sciatic]

Regardless of the ill-thought out strategy (or more accurately, lack of one), it's a special sight to see Remco ride someone off his wheel on the flat.

 

[Red Rick]

If it was Pogacar in Evenepoels wheel the motor would 100% be in front of them.

 

[ice&fire]

can we get the moto away from the front of the peloton?

In front of the attackers, please

 

[Extinction]

It's over

 

[jsem94]

They're going to get caught with about 1km to go.

 

[Peter von]

Oh for sure.

But well enough to justify changing his season around?
I am not so sure.

Really stupid racing from Remco, Vingo is probably just sitting there going WTF all we had to do was ride with our teams and put time into Almeida.

Oh for sure. He probably just couldn’t resist a chance to prove how strong he was.

 

[Didinho]

This feels like Remco’s first pro year where a bigger group tries to catch him for a long time. Only now he got some climber in his wheel.

 

[Extinction]

Perhaps Remco doesn't believe in himself in the mountains.
