Vuelta a España Vuelta a España 2022, stage 9: Villaviciosa - Les Praeres, 171.4k

[Netserk]

This is next level retardation.

Maybe he is on the spectrum.

 

[Jumbo Visma Fan :)]

It's quite difficult when it's having a massive effect on the RACE.

There’s other places to take about it than the RACE day thread, which doesn’t cover the whole race.

 

[Lequack]

The break has bullied Arensman out.

 

[T-Nielsen]

DSM outdumbing themselves.

Are we surprised?

 

[Rackham]

This break deserves to get caught on the finish line if they really told Arensman to fall back.

 

[Valv.Piti]

Maybe he is on the spectrum.

Im pretty sure their DS' are atleast. Wouldn't surprise me if they told him to drop back in a classic display of Team DSM bike racing.

 

[Skijumper Roglic fan]

The break has bullied Arensman out.

They dared to do so because he still rides for DSM. From next year on, in Ineos colours, no one will dare to tell him what to do, any more…

 

[Netserk]

The Vine rocket has launched!

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Vine is back at it! Defending the jersey against Soler or going for the stage?

 

[Riek s]

Seems like REmco wanted to gift or pressure the other teams by letting Arensmen get ahead. Seems DSM team didn't agree. (don't see why else he would stop riding)

Unfortunately, I think he is just marking Soler.

 

[Valv.Piti]

You can at least try and see what the response is before you just fall back, like, c'mon man.

Man no this again

 

[Faserr]

Now DSM looks even more stupid with all the action

 

[Riek s]

Vine and Soler don't seem to have a problem doing breakaway stages back to back. Not even WVA did this in the tour.

 

[Netserk]

Grande Movistar! Blow this sh!t up!!!

 

[Salvarani]

Not many guys left...

I'd rather thought dark triad but then in some cases it's hard to tell which it is (like Rasmussen tbh)

 

[Netserk]

Time for Valverde to attack.

 

[Volderke]

This break deserves to get caught on the finish line if they really told Arensman to fall back.

I would love the break to win the stage with some riders having a 4 minutes advantage, just to show DSM / Arensman what they missed out on!
Even when the break bullies him, he has every right to be there.
Volunteerily dropping out while the peloton was clearly softpedalling... I am gobsmacked.

So, you're saying they're awesome?

 

[T-Nielsen]

QS picking weird fights.

 

[Lequack]

Remco is scolding Valverde for attacking.

 

[Riek s]

Vervaecke and Ian Wilder are the only ones left for REmco. Very small group left...

 

[Netserk]

Almeida going for the long yo-yo.
