Volta Ciclista a Catalunya 2023, March 20-26

[Ricco']

Carapaz +10
Bernal +12
Mader +21

Yates over 51 seconds, not appearing still on the results

Otoh, Roglic was eating wind with 300 to go, they both had their share of arguments.

 

[Elos Anjos]

So, anyone got the list of riders taken down? I don't mean Remco though.

 

[Carrick-On-Seine]

Gosh, this place is swarming with fanboys. It should be fun in a few days.

Especially if (checks spelling) Almeida gets involved.

 

[postmanhat]

Overhead shows just how fast Evenepoel was gaining at the end. Being quicker than Roglic on a finish like this is pretty impressive considering how bad his sprinting has been.

 

[yaco]

It was a fair result for one and two on the stage as they both made mistakes - Roglic went too early, while Remco was too far back.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Remco was shocked by the power of Rog, but the outcome might be different if they end up sprinting against each other for the win tomorrow.

And here i was thinking Yates could fight for the win in GC.

Maybe stuck due to crash? I guess the crash was to far to be regulated the same time?

Were Yates or Almeida involved in the crash?

 

[Samamba]

Jezus nightmare for some of the GC guys today, mainly because of that crash.

Ive said this before, this race doesn't need a final like this. It's a climbers races, let the GC be decided by the climbs instead of nervous finals. But hey, that's just me. I'm not going to say this wasn't way more entertaining than just a normal bunch sprint.

 

[DNP-Old]

Training with Masnada

This gimmick is garbage.

 

[Eddy Evenepoel]

Didn’t watch, but crash happened before the 3 km banner?

quite a lot of GC riders seems to have lost time according to the preliminary results.

 

[Red Rick]

Here I was hoping they'd get 4th and 5th this race in extremely boring fashion so the fan wars would be minimal

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Evenepoel already with the mind games, stealing Roglic's lines.
"Why not eh".

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Has anyone ever gone from not having a sprint at all to being one of the fastest GC riders as rapidly as Evenepoel has? 2019-20 Evenepoel could have started this one in Roglic' wheel and still wouldn't have made the top-5, now he coasts past everyone bar Roglic (who, tbf, was forced to go pretty early) on a hill that probably isn't even half as difficult as the Cauberg. Extraordinary development.

 

[Escarabajo]

Carapaz 10 seconds. A little rusty. Even Uran came in the front group.

Yes, it happened with about five kilometers to go.

Thomas Geraint too.

 

[Blanco]

Remco, the uphill sprinter, who would've thought
Rogla way too early at the front, and Remco way too behind for the sprint.

It is, but don't underestimate the disadvantage of hitting the front too early, which Roglic did. On a finish like this you can make up a lot of ground if you time it right.

You're just salty Coquard lost you your monthly wages!

 

[wheresmybrakes]

What's funny is Remco trying to bang the bars and missing it.

Roglic " Don't worry Remco, I'll let you win a stage later on in the race, no crying now"

 

[noob]

Yates was in the crash and is injured

 

[Andy schleck]

Evenepoel should have been in Van Wilder's wheel and he could have won.

You are always ready to give excuses for remco.

Updated now so everyone from 26th to 77th lost only 10 seconds it seems.
