They should get that Belgian pozzato down from his useless altitude camp to do leadouts for Brennen. Then he could actually contribute something to the success of the team
The new Moreno Moser finished 153rd today, behind token Chinese guy Haoyu Su among others, on a stage that was perfect for a sprinter-puncheur like him. Giving him a two-year contract is not one of the savvier decisions Soudal have made, to say the least.At this point, if I was a team manager I wouldn't touch Hayter with a ten-foot pole even if I was looking to sign a pure domestique.
Yeah he's 100% crashing himself out of the giro this week![]()

Times have been corrected now, group with O'Connor at +15".Carapaz should get the same time as Quintana (+15) in the end. Buchmann between those two is missing in the result, so there actually was no gap.
Not fair to compare them, Moser won some big racesThe new Moreno Moser finished 153rd today,
You're right: sorry. Not sure whence I invented that memory.in the UCI rules, it's the same as before: "This article shall not apply where the finish is at the top of a hill-climb." No other exception listed.
Only the top 20 scorers count?What's Vino doing signing that Bruce Lee lookalike anyway, it's like having to score points with 29 guys, Gleb would be up there in races getting some points.
Yeah but the other 10 help the 20 that do is what I meant, bad turn of phrase from me, and even if Syritsa who he seems have been relegated to the dev team to make room wasn't top 20 he's still pretty strong and could leadout Kanter/Bol. I think this guy was requested by the sponsors, but they could've at least signed Xianjing Lyu if they wanted a Chinese star, he's actually good.Only the top 20 scorers count?
Carapaz got +0 even, due to a 3k incident - or in this case, 4k apparentlyTimes have been corrected now, group with O'Connor at +15".
Nice to see “the Alpecin guy” moniker resurrectedThat was impressive. Got to say that the Alpecin guy could have won if he’d stopped looking behind for Groves.
I rewatched the final 3 km two times after I noticed that, but it was impossible to see anything other than Carapaz and the group he was in already with a little gap before the last 800 m, but I assume he had a mechanical before that since the rest of them weren't given the same time.Carapaz got +0 even, due to a 3k incident - or in this case, 4k apparently

The dedication is, as always, admirable...I mean, you're not even spelling Pozzato with a capital P anymore...man...how the mighty Wout has fallen...They should get that Belgian pozzato down from his useless altitude camp to do leadouts for Brennen. Then he could actually contribute something to the success of the team
Hayter's not a domestique, and he's not a rider for conditions like today. He'll likely pick up 2 or 3 wins this year though, like he usually does. What's his salary, btw? I assume you must know, else you wouldn't comment on the savviness of the decision to sign him.The new Moreno Moser finished 153rd today, behind token Chinese guy Haoyu Su among others, on a stage that was perfect for a sprinter-puncheur like him.

Carapaz with the fake mech in the gapped group, -0s, what a racer.
He's 1 month and 9 days older than Evenepoel and Tarling when they took their first WT win.I just watched it now. What an absolutely insane performance from Brennan. Holy ***.
First teenage win on the WorldTour?
