Once again we are treated to another fantastic production. Kudos to all those who are responsible for condensing multiple story lines in a 6 hour race into just over an hour. Great work.
Im sorry but that is bullshit. It might be because they witnessed his solo for some time so they didn't have that euphoric moment at the finish line. But Terpstra was one of the most highly regarded riders at that team. Boonen said he was his best teammate ever. Lefevre was said to have let him go, but because of budget and age he couldnt keep him.
Indeed @1:01:36 once they find out he attacked and got away you can see that they have little faith in him. The reactions are nothing like when Gilbert attacked with 55km to go the year before which was a way crazier move.
excellent production. I wish all monuments would do something like that. on the other note, it's kinda eerie to see Goolaerts, knowing what happened to him only week later.
That's normal in every sport. When there's little money people do it for the fun of it and there's little pressure. When there's a lot of money people do it for the money and there's huge pressure leading to more stressed athletes.
Correct me if i'm wrong but it's an unwritten rule in the peloton that a rider who got set back due to a mechanical problem, is allowed to take advantage of the teamcars to come back. It's a different thing if you get dropped offcourse. On a totally different note... God i love this sport and i miss the races sooo much :)).
@@filipito2 Then why did the under 23 year old rider that won the World Championship in Harrogate England in 2019 get disqualified? The issue with this rule is it seems to be very "subjective" and not at all consistently applied.
