Volta a la Comunitat Valenciana 2025, Spain, February 5-9

[Sciatic]

Ironic considering the improvement comes also with Nairo’s return last year.

Perhaps the improvement came when they ditched the traditional Movistar blue (which I miss) for their current kit.

Eurosport deciding to show a race from last year.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Problem is lidl would have to ride at a Milan-sustainable tempo on hilly terrain

 

[DJ Sprtsch]

But good luck trying to find a race calendar.

I prefer Firstcycling there too.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Jayco not doing too much in the race so fancy helping pull back someone who actually is great work.

 

[Sciatic]

Castrillo just needs to get his tongue out for the full Thomas Voelkler effect

 

[Tim Cahill]

Great try Pablo but I think that's it, maybe could act as a springboard for the Movistar 1-2

There is an uncategorized climb with about 10 km to go that will be a good spot to counter from the chase group.

 

[Lequack]

Is Milan a better climber than Groves?

 

[Tim Cahill]

Come on Ivan go now

 

[Netserk]

Come on Ivan go now

In 2 km.

 

[Netserk]

Santi looking good here.

 

[Lequack]

This is the best Movistar in a long time.

 

[Netserk]

Milan detached.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Cepeda looks class

 

[Netserk]

Somewhat technical finish, a long sprint is the way to go.

 

[perico]

behold the brilliance of Chente.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Almeida's positioning leaves a bit to be desired, it's a hard final too

 

[Netserk]

Milan detached.

Or not. Damn.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Milan is getting over that Poggio this year

 

[Netserk]

Santi takes bonus seconds here.

 

[Samamba]

Milan scares me. If he can handle the kilometers he should be able to handle a lot of classics.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Movistar on the front slowing sh*t down legendary stuff

 

[Sciatic]

Surrender?

 

[Sciatic]

It’s still cross season for some
