Mr. Vuelta!

 

[Red Rick]

Imagine busting your ass off for 3 weeks in 40 degrees in Spain only to be rewarded with Heineken.

 

[JosefK]

No gifts, today. Magnus's moustache drooped a little.

 

[BullsFan22]

Haha Bernal thought the finish was about 100m earlier, was already freewheeling before realising that he had to do one final punch.

It was. The clock stops before that turn. Very weird finish setup by the organizers.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Primoz roglic is the next Tony Rominger

Assuming that's the non alcohol version too.

 

[roundabout]

More than decent. He is a pretty complete rider.

It's still an over 3 s/km loss which is a bit concerning despite beating all the other GC riders

 

[topcat]

MALstrop beats ROGLAstomp any day.

Roglic now wishing he was riding for UAE

Yeah, I realized that when Haig took about 10 seconds to cross these last meters. However if you see the slow motion of Bernals face I think he thought he was wrong and accelerated again.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Hope he returns next year to try and equal the great four time, four time, four time, four time undisputed champ

 

[BlueRoads]

Gigantic gaps in the top 10.
And the 20th is so far away

Here comes the bagpipes too...

It's just meta humour.

 

[Amazinmets87]

Wouldn't he rather win a more prestigious GT?

 

[Cance > TheRest]

Probably the most flawless GT Roglic has ever ridden. But the competition also wasn't the stiffest this time.

 

[Escarabajo]

Chapeau Primoz!!

The new Rominger!

Wasn't it also Heineken he was drinking when he was sitting on that mountaintop after crashing out of the Tour? So who knows? Maybe he likes Heineken...

 

[BlueRoads]

This time the time trial went really well for DSM... I think there's really something about their season's schedule... they seem to have their general peak in early autumn.

 

[saganftw]

cant believe G.Martin sh*thoused another top ten in GT

 

[roundabout]

cant believe G.Martin sh*thoused another top ten in GT

what do you mean? he finishes 9th

ah, I probably misunderstood

 

[BlueRoads]

Why? He's a great rider, well, physically a one-trick pony, but I love the spirit with which he races, he deserves this.

They're a team sponsor aren't they? So guess it's free beer. Although he could have got Gesink to go to the toilet in a bottle for the same taste.

It was less entertaining from him this time. Just had the one break I think rather and didn't have much random attacks on the climbs either off him.

Yes. Everyone else is free to try to get a top-10 the same way.
