World Championship 2024 - Men's U23 Road Race: Uster-Zürich (173.5 km)

[Samamba]

Belgium?

That's what you get when you do all the work for everyone else; Widar riding like he did on the climb and dropping Segaert was really dumb.

This is a great world championships course.

German Eurosport is worried because there are no Germans in the last group.

German Eurosport cheered up a bit now?

I don't mind him attacking and dropping Segaert, but he did too much on his own. When you see him ride now, you can imagine him being able to follow Behrens if he was a bit more conservative with his energy

This guy seems to be an improved version of Nils Politt.

German Eurosport cheered up a bit now?

Yes, even though there are still no Germans in the last group on camera, but I think they know where people are now

 

[Tim Cahill]

Alec should just go over the top, get himself his medal

 

[Didinho]

Segaert gonna solo to 3th place.

 

[Danskebjerge]

While it obviously hasn't been the best season ever for Danish cycling, we've also had a lot fortune over the past few years, so I see no reason to complain.

Sorry, but isn't that a typical Danish thing to say?

If you're doing well for several years in a row, the level of expectations should grow accordingly. In any sports, no matter which nation.

 

[Armchair Cyclist]

The Olympics, European Championships, these World Championships - one disappointment after the other. Today even being beaten by Mexico, Ireland etc., despite many strong U23 riders not participating.

If its any consolation, my first reaction on hearing Christen's name is that he is Danish, until I remember that he isn't.

 

[Netserk]

Pro move.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Segaert gonna solo to 3th place.

Or 4rd, maybe 5st.

 

[Berniece]

Nice one from Segaert

 

[Tim Cahill]

There it is

 

[Danskebjerge]

what like del Toro isn't literally the most talented guy in the world

Denmark won nine medals at U 23 between 2011 and 2021. So expectations are high, and so they should be.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Blackmore/Del Toro been playing too many games today, looking at each other far too much.

That depends on who you ask. There are definitely times where Danes have had unreasonable expectations, too.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Martin leading him out, wtf are you doing lad hes 100 kilos

 

[Didinho]

Segaert better in the road race than the TT. Bronze.

Imagine leading out the 3 meter German and not seeing him.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Congratulations to Wout von Aert!

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Looking forward to 100 kg behemoth Behrens to solidify himself between the climbers in the penultimate lap.

U23 expert merchant

 

[Netserk]

Best climbers did worst.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Best climbers did worst.

Sorted by sprint even though they split up before the finish

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Great race. Solid win by the German. Congrats.
