Volta Ciclista a Catalunya 2025, March 24-30

[Peyroteo94]

Finally, The uphill sprinter strikes his first win!

 

[Landeirovic]

Roglic wins, but it was closer than I'd have expected. Is Ayuso fast or has Roglic become slower?

Ayuso is fast

 

[Netserk]

They really are quite evenly matched in the stomp department, hopefully we get to see who's the best at proper racing on Saturday.

Lo Port 2.0 in the last km.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Pretty big swerve there actually, although probably not quite enough for the jury to care.

Roglic wins, but it was closer than I'd have expected. Is Ayuso fast or has Roglic become slower?

It's that Roglic keeps giving Ayuso the inside line.

Where was Brennan, I read earlier in the thread that he would have a chance on this finish?

it's not what I said, as you know yourself

 

[scribers]

Ayuso letting everyone behind bridge up just for a stage win (that didn’t happen)

 

[RedheadDane]

Ayuso vs. Roglic is the sprinting rivalry of the year.
BTW, did they just show them sprint backwards at impressive speeds?

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Remco would have attacked and dropped everyone, and then crashed a spectator after the finish for further entertainment

 

[AnotherArmChair]

Landa v Mas for the podium

 

[tobydawq]

Rogla bad?

Ye of little faith.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Unjust!
Wheels*cker Mas
passes Landa in GC

 

[SafeBet]

Bernal lost more than 30"

 

[AnotherArmChair]

Ayuso pushing Rog for position 4 of top 5 stage racers

 

[search]

I guess Adam Yates is just missing in the result? Or did he really lose 3+ minutes after a 200m pull?

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Remco would have attacked and dropped everyone, and then crashed a spectator after the finish for further entertainment

But he's only a Belgian pony next to Merlier.

One step closer to 100 for Roglič, both in terms of victories and age.

 

[Red Rick]

Roglic' dedication to wheelsuck and stomp is so great that he opted for the aero helmet on a MTF.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Roglic evermore simpatico
in interviews

 

[tobydawq]

Roglic wins, but it was closer than I'd have expected. Is Ayuso fast or has Roglic become slower?

Ayuso is fast.

But I don't think Roglic is as fast as 4-5 years ago where he could win quite big bunch sprints in the Vuelta.

uphill sprint olympics

 

[AnotherArmChair]

Landa looks 3rd best in the race but needs to not go immediately after Ayuso or Mas will take podium from him

 

[Samamba]

Both Lenny's need to stop sitting so far back. They are on 10 bikelengths before the attacks even start. Especially Van Eetvelt looked really strong today.

 

[tobydawq]

Pretty big swerve there actually, although probably not quite enough for the jury to care.

By whom?

Roglic literally does everything he can to take the curve wide enough so that Ayuso doesn't get squeezed on the inside.

 

[Mayomaniac]

Pellizzari looking strong while riding as a climbing domestique.

Landismo raid on Coll de Pradell or we riot.
