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

[Devil's Elbow]

The three best one-day racers in the world are the three on the podium of the Worlds, after getting pushed and pushing each other all the way. Shows how good this course is.

Reminder that Pogacar still hasn't won a race where Evenepoel, MVDP and WVA all participated.

Pog wheels*cked his bronze
poor Mads

Pogi huge bronze medal.

 

[Salvarani]

I would say...

1. MVDP
2. Van Aert
3. Pog

Yeah... pretty much!

 

[Breezy1985]

Van Aert finishes second to Van der Poel in a big race for the 326th time in his career.

I actually can't tell if that's a joke or not.

considering how much Evenepoel ducks VDP and WVA that's what, two races ever

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

This was a course of truth. Ride or die.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Was able to watch only bits and pieces of the race (glad I saw some of the wonderful Scottish scenery earlier) - congrats to MvdP!

Fun race this was, I'll have to watch the whole replay later.

Mvdp is in fact half Belgian, no? 😀
Wva with his signature 2nd place

Isn't his mom French?

 

[will-10]

such a shame the race is voided with the lunch break

poor Mads

Wout was the real wheelsucker today. Doing nothing at all once VDP got a gap and only saving for his last attack.

Half French I would say.

He can't be "half belgian" because he doesn't have any belgian parents no? just was born there.

 

[Savant12]

Best and smartest rider won. Let others close the gaps and as Sean Kelly would say "keeping his powder dry".

 

[Salvarani]

This was a course of truth. Ride or die.

Strongest and best riders fought for it. No pretenders getting away here.

 

[Danskebjerge]

The Danish commentators refuse to be disappointed.

If you think that’s wheelsucking then we have very different interpretations of what a wheelsucker is.

 

[magliaroz]

Lmfao Pogi gets third?

The GC rider to sprinter pipeline!

 

[Breezy1985]

Pog wheels*cked his bronze
poor Mads

Wow you are so cool and edgy

 

[Devil's Elbow]

I actually can't tell if that's a joke or not.

If you include CX, it's not far off...

poor Mads

Pog attacked and responded to many attacks today, doing it without a team. Absolutely deserved podium for him on a circuit that didnt favour him.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Glasgow was always for the Hard Men
ask inspector Rebus

 

[Aimar16]

Half French I would say.

He can't be "half belgian" because he doesn't have any belgian parents no? just was born there.

Best Dutch athletes are born in Belgium, like Verstappen

 

[Sciatic]

Why can’t they at least do a split screen at the end so they can can show the riders in the finish area (which seems to be the producer’s preference) and the other riders who do great rides finishing (especially 5-10 places)?

 

[perico]

Hell of a race.
