Vuelta a Andalucia Ruta Ciclista Del Sol 2025, February 19-23

[Samu Cuenca]

Uriarte doing Berrade things.

 

[Rob5091]

Chapeau Uriarte & Kern! Good win for them.

 

[yaco]

A bizarre ending to a bizarre stage.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Not sure if Burgos, Jayco or Nu Colombia

 

[Coffeeplanter]

Cool, another UAE with road rage. Collectively angry these guys.

 

[Alexandre B.]

How to lose a race by doing nothing - A Connor Swift bestseller.

 

[Salvarani]

Great to see Equipo Kern Pharma get a win!

 

[Netserk]

Three Uno-X riders not helping Kristoff ...

 

[Tim Cahill]

Wish there was a feed, they're missing the best part, looks like Van Gils/AG2R and some others trying a raid.

 

[Statze2]

Congrats to that guy who showed up to the race ill. He caught a lot of riders... Interesting to see if riders like van Gils, Pidcock, Wellens, Sivakov and Soler can escape. The next highlights of these riders are around the corner (Strade Bianchi, Opening weekend etc). Fingers crossed for them

 

[Squire]

That's a spicy breakaway.

 

[Netserk]

That's a spicy breakaway.

Maybe Uno-X will ride for another Norwegian today?

 

[RedheadDane]

So easy for Pogačar, great second place finish for Ciccone and Romeo defending himself really well too.

Wrong thread!

 

[Netserk]

PCS: Due to the closed railway crossing, Group 1 and the peloton had to wait before restarting. The gap is now 2:30, and everyone is back on the move.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Whats the gameplan today, if only UNO-X listened yesterday. Today seems to me UAE needs to work hard for, nasty break to control, hopefully things get out of control.

Think UAE should be ok because if JSM gets too much time then others will start to defend their GC, they will be happy with them taking the bonuses, ideal situation for them. UNO X better situation today with 3 up front and I think kristoff dropped, yesterday was madness.

No bonus seconds today.

Inside info directly from the Uno-X sports director in one of the cars that Kristoff has lost too much in the climbs and has given up and will just ride to finish. So no chance for him in a sprint if everything came together.

 

[Tim Cahill]

No bonus seconds today.

Damn, no “golden kilometre” gimmick either it seems, a strange choice given its the last stage and they had it on the ones prior.

 

[Strawberry_Jams]

Is Johansen in the group for UAE, otherwise why are they bringing it back?

Oh and now it’s going back out again.

Had the full team (minus Hoelgaard) been with him from the start, I think they could have paced him back.

Johansen is not in the (front) group - assuming that's what you meant.
I think they're bringing it back because they want to win the stage...

I meant in the peloton, …because who do they think is going to win? Wellens?

 

[RedheadDane]

Well, I assumed that since you didn't write "in the peloton", you didn't mean in the peloton...
Why would Johansen being in the peloton make UAE work to bring the group back?



(I don't think Johansen is in the peloton, BTW. Can't see him among the guys pulling...)

Sorry, clearly assuming has made an ass out of u and me. I assumed the sentence made sense. Well you said they are going for the stage win? Who for? Because it’s a lot of work just to keep the gap 1 minute ahead of where it really needs to be. Just to get beat by faster guys like van gils, turner, pidcock. Same with Jayco.

 

[RedheadDane]

Well, I dunno who it might be for. I still don't see what Johansen got to do with it, other than the fact that if he was in the peloton, he'd be at the front, working towards catching the break.
