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

[Red Rick]

Dinham be like "Why won't any of these guys give me an autograph"

 

[Salvarani]

Matthews completely done.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Good thing Plapp and Durbridge emptied themselves early for MM.

 

[jaylew]

Bye bye Bling.

 

[Rollthedice]

Wrong Aussie in the front group. Bling says goodbye.

 

[Salvarani]

Yeah, this is it.

 

[ChewbaccaDefense]

Jebus, just tuned in, thinking the race was about to get interesting...it looks like we have the race possibly already made. Pog and MVDP to work over Wout.

 

[Danskebjerge]

Please no more punctures.

 

[Volderke]

Mvdp and Pogacar biggest favorite. Unless Remco is so strong he can close the gap, but I don’t see it happening the way he takes curves.

I would say...

1. MVDP
2. Van Aert
3. Pog

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Glasgow is miles better

 

[search]

Dinham, what a ride.

good ride indeed, but is it clear that he entered the group from the front?! He was in the breakaway all day.

 

[yaco]

No surprise that Matthews has dropped out - He has not recovered from his crash at the Ordiazko Classic 12 days ago.

 

[DNP-Old]

It is astounding to me how we have so little static cameras on a city circuit.

 

[Panda Claws]

That Slovenian jersey is ugly.

 

[jaylew]

Evenepoel is struggling big time through the corners.

Yeah, I said I didn't think this was a course for him. Too technical and not enough climbing. Still, I'm not completely writing him off just yet.

 

[Riek s]

Explosive power/ recovery dominates this wc

 

[Danskebjerge]

So impressive by the breakaway riders. They could be in for a good contract soon.

 

[Didinho]

I think the big group will be coming back another time. It’s to far. They’re not riding hard in front. But the better riders are here now.

5 riders in front who are De Ronde winners/podium finishers.

 

[Rechtschreibfehler]

Couldn't see the beginning of the race, and the first thing I see is Remco seemingly hanging on a thread and then MvdP attacking. What is going on?

And why is Remco apparently so bad?

 

[Red Rick]

Question is now can MvdP contain himself and not go ballistic for the next 5 laps

 

[Salvarani]

Group might be coming back soon

 

[roundabout]

gap is tiny thanks to France

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

It's coming back.

 

[ChewbaccaDefense]

They're gonna get caught
