World Championships 2023: Men's Road Race (August 6)

[Danskebjerge]

Spreading their message in their own echo chamber does not seem a very smart strategy.

I think they have their own logic ...

 

[meat puppet]

Remco seems to have been destroyed already.

I think he will feature today.

Organisation is a big fan of the "celebrate too late/early" thread

Sagan is a big fan of someone creating a "retire too late/early" thread.

 

[DaLong]

Was hoping to watch a bit more Sagan than that, alas, enjoy MTBing Peter.

 

[DNP-Old]

Every time the tv director switches to another camera, somewhere a baby seal gets clubbed to death.

 

[Filippo_3467]

Politt also DNF. Another no show for him in a big race.

 

[dobrien]

Very few opportunities to get even a mini-rest on this course.

 

[awavey]

Who are these BBC announcers?

its Ned Boulting , Chris Boardman and sounds like Jose Been

 

[DaLong]

Is this the crit world championships?

 

[Tim Cahill]

Seen Big John in some good positions, maybe Germany will secure their annual top 50 after all

We already have the Froome thread

 

[Boehmand]

Not looking too good for the Danes.

The attacks have not had the desired effect, as the peloton is still quite large albeit constantly strung out.

Asgreen looks beat - but Mads still has Kragh and Skjelmose who both look strong.

We are getting close to the 200 K mark, so it won't be long until the peloton breaks up permanently.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Alaphilippe bonk incoming.

 

[Filippo_3467]

Maybe they manage to bring their best riders 5 riders for the parcours next time.

 

[DNP-Old]

Laporte flat tire?

For the last 50 k, the team needs 2-3 riders who haven't been in attacks. That's not possible anymore.
