Re:

What about the new Contador, Enric Mas. He was 2nd only to Yates in GC at Vuelta.

But for Mas it's I think his first race for the season.

Poels has already proven he is in great shape as he was 3rd in the Tour down Under.

Today's stage might well look like it's sponsored by a medical supply company.

We will see. It's still his first race of the season and there is a long way to the Tour. I think Poels is pretty much peaking for the races where he is allowed to lead the team.

CCC presenting themselves very well.
Porto too.

Re:

Go Antunes!

 

[DNP-Old]

Antunes needs to wait for Balarcón so they can ride together. That way the peloton is *** and the race is done.

No turquoise in the peloton, but blue features.

That was a nice showing and coupling from CCC. In the spirit of the race start.

Alarcon dropped by Van Baarle. How?

 

[Red Rick]

First time this year I watch cycling for more than 2 minutes.

I see that nothing has changed.

 

[shalgo]

Everyone is getting dropped; meanwhile Geoghegan Hart is having a snack while pulling the group.

Pogacar is a God.

 

[sir fly]

Pogacar takes it!

 

[Salvarani]

WOW

Pogacar

 

[Akuryo]

Congrats to Pogacar. Still pretty impressive ride from Mas on only his second race day.

 

[sir fly]

Heroic ride by Antunes.
Poels and Mas in fine form.

Good racing today on the peninsula.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Incredible ride by Pogacar, holy moly. I thought at least 2 times he was blown, but he had a lot left in the tank.

Poels screwed up though, he had the acceleration but went too early.
Oomen also good but also went too early. Antunes forced their hand

How often do we see attacks on the Fóia climb, honestly?

You really should have seen the Colombia race. That was a-freaking-mazing. Even though Sky were there with a strong team and tried to do ride train.

 

[DNP-Old]

Antunes is going to wreck everyone on Malhão.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Overall

Welcome to the Pogi world.

Does Pogačar have a nickname, or I should decorate him?
