I think Remco has good legs today.

But being isolated. No radio. Getting frustrated. I think those things affects him more and he loses focus. Loses interest and shuts down.

Contrary to when he is on top of things and can ride his own tempo on the front, solo, or on a climb... diesel. Why he does well in TTs as well with his big engine.

To a noob it looked like Sivakov tried to refuse pulling for a long time. I'm just bummed by him having a jersey with a name of a country he's not riding for :( Not hating on him. Hating on UAE.

If this was a Sunday club race you’d be hailing the audacity of attacking solo from 100km out. To do it in the world championships against the best riders in the world is mind boggling.

I still can not believe. I thought to myself there goes rainbow jersey chance when he attacked. But wow...

Completely irrelevant to claim that anybody should have 'covered' the attack from Pogacar. Pogacar is going to be out in the wind alone for almost 100 kilometers. That's so much more important than an attack - it should not be possible. Would normally only happen in 1 out of 100 cases.
So they underestimated him?

And overestimated how much help they could get from their helpers?
