World Championships 2023: Womens Elite Road Race. Loch Lomond - Glasgow 154km

[iBanesto]

Niewiadoma not starting - has an upper respiratory tract infection and the national team doctor has advised her to withdraw.

I blame Matt Stephens.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Why Sylvia persico isn't in the front?

 

[Didinho]

Why Sylvia persico isn't in the front?

She got dropped earlier, not her best day it seems. Just came back with G2.

I’m supporting for the Italians again. Hoping for Consonni on a super day. And good chance for Gasparrini U23 gold I think.

 

[Salvarani]

Gonna be lots of crashes.

 

[Didinho]

The bigger names already gone.

 

[Salvarani]

Race exploded

 

[Salvarani]

Wiebes done

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Wiebes should probably have stayed in bed then.

 

[Salvarani]

Wiebes helping Bredewold now

 

[Didinho]

Reusser 90km solo.

 

[Salvarani]

Another crash

 

[Salvarani]

Norsgaard collar-bone

 

[iBanesto]

Massive crash!

No one can even get back up.

 

[Red Rick]

"Yeah show me the crash aftermath for 15 minutes"

~ noone, ever

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Didn't look good for Sarah Roy there either. Marty's day has been made, Anna Henderson is on the move.

 

[RedheadDane]

Roy not looking good...

Would be nice if Reusser could get some success, after the ITT...

 

[Potomac]

At this point, over a week since the worlds started, the riders can't be surprised at this circuit.

 

[Volderke]

Reusser showing how a good TT can win in this circuit. They can’t wait and should chase without hesitation.
As this is the women’s race, I don’t see them chasing hard though.

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Thumb in the eye to the Cille haters (you subhumans you) as she takes up the work.

 

[Izzyeviel]

Go Reusser!

 

[Salvarani]

At this point, over a week since the worlds started, the riders can't be surprised at this circuit.

I dont think they are surprised.

It is cringe to say but the game is the game on this course.

 

[Izzyeviel]

Thumb in the eye to the Cille haters (you subhumans you) as she takes up the work.

yup. She did great leading her group slowly thru that corner.

 

[Libertine Seguros]

The peloton wants Lotte Kopecky to do the chasing.
Lotte Kopecky wants the péloton to do the chasing.

 

[Izzyeviel]

Its great to see a GB team actually try to win.

 

[Red Rick]

No idea why Kopecky was pulling there with 2 teammates in that group
