The male commenter holds a world record for worn out clichés. I wished he shut his mouth.
Anna, dein Streben immer alles zu geben hat dich unsterblich gemacht. Gold in Tokio und 160 Kilometer Solo bei der la Vuelta nach Segovia. Danke! Du bist ein gigantisches Vorbild für uns. Mach weiter für uns. Freuen uns schon dich in Paris 2024 wiederzusehen! LG aus deiner Heimat
The land of Red Bull!
나아름이도 바로 ba를 치고 나가야하는데 왜 느려터진 펠로톤 꽁무니에서 피 빨고 갔는지 이해가 안되네 펠로톤그룹들은 전부 쟁쟁한 우승후보들이 포진해있는데 그들이 막판에 풀가스로 댕길텐데 나아름이는 작전실패다. 그냥 초반부터 안나 키친호퍼처럼 나가사면 가능성도 있었는데 안타갑네요~~
04:19:36 The Dutch did such a nice work at the front for the silver medal. The attack from the back of the group by van der Breggen, van Vleuten blocking, then places herself in a no mans land, sneaking up at the wheel of van der Breggen, and when van Vleuten attacks from there no one have her wheel or the legs to follow. Interesting footage also of a confused van Vleuten and her dutch teammates after the race..
04:25:28 I feels bad.jpg.
She didn't know there's a rider in front of her, she didn't won gold.
But what can I say, Anna Kiesenhofer race is legendary.
04:26:10 I love how Anna Kiesenhofer goes from crying to "there's a camera recording me!", I should puff up and act like champ !
Adorable ☺️.
Shouldn’t there a motorcycle guy holding time board for cyclists ?
Ahu'manRACE
What an inspiration to see Anna win!!! A math doctor then an Olympic CHAMP??? Insane!!!
She is my idol
This race was one for the books 👏
I have waited the race in whole length soo Long time. At that morning, we, living in Austria, turned on TV and saw that an Austrian cyclist is the leader of the race. We couldn't beliebte it, but the unthinkable happened. We ware on sleep during the race because of time difference. But no TV channel have shown the füll race afterward even in Austria. Thank you for shering 😊😊
Wow, even the broadcasters were underestimating the breakaway group for most of the first hour.
Most amazing cycling moment of 2021
2:34:32 Crash.
Австрiйка молодець. Голандки правили балом.
EPIC PERFORMANCE is an understatement for Kiesenhofer's huge win. "How big is her heart …" and many other moments of this gold medal – worthy coverage made this the best reporting of an Olympic cycling event ever.
Bravo Anna!!!!!
i'm in awe of these guys. they're just pure human machines.
handys and tv have been invented long ago – anybody who followed the race on tv could have permanently informed the team car and the persons handing out drinks and feedbags about the whereabouts of leaders and chasers so ALL Dutch ladies couls have known at any time. Thus, failing to tell them is one of the worst blunders in cycling history! I'm Austrian, yand of course I'm delighted, but: Hey, Dutch, what You've done (or rather NOT done), do You call this 'professionalism'???
19:32 “sometimes it’s not the best rider that wins, sometimes it’s the smartest” – little did he know how true that turned out to be 😅
Meanwhile I've watched most of the videos about this race, listened to all commentators and analyzers (some very intelligent, a few just stupid hindsight babble), and read a lot of the comments listed below – now, I'm stunned… Why? 'Cause in fact EVERYBODY knew there was no race radio and that this lack of information had led to at least Annemiek Van Vleuten and possibly even the whole peloton forgetting about Anna Kiesenhofer towards the finish (instead of chasing her), WHILE so far NOBODY has picked up (before I did) how simply and logically this could (or rather ought to) have been prevented: By assigning some assistant(s) to just watch the race on tv and constantly pass all informations via handy to the team car and all helpers (the persons who provided drinks and foodbags, and perhaps some more assistants strategically spread along the road), so that (at any time!) Annemiek & Cie could (or rather ought to) have been kept as best informed as possible… Failing to do so turns out (in my eyes) to have been one of the worst blunders in the history of Cycling – committed by the Dutch team management, NOT by their great racing ladies, even though these also (for the worse) seemed to not really have worked together well as a team…
3:39:40
Wild wheelie
東京オリンピックで1番面白かった競技だと思う！
最高のレース！
So well deserved for the austrian.
Annex to my earlier comments: (I discovered later that) In his article for Associated Press Dave Skretta wrote that Italian Elisa Longo Borghini knew there still must have been one more rider out in front who wasn't caught (= Anna Kiesenhofer): Because Elisa understands a bit of german and had listened to the Germans who kept their riders well informed. Without race radio, the only way how the Germans could have done so was via handy… So, if the Germans were able to inform their riders, why not the Dutch as well???
exciting
this was best bike race ever. fantastic 😸
great broadcasters/commentators. as somebody who don't know much about bike race, they explain everything so well.
After watching this again. I must say thank u to our german neighbours it seems like they slowed down the peloton a bit zo stay aware of the dutch. Tha helped anna.
So thx
Best example why team Radios should. Not be allowed in cycling
She did it all alone no support rider
The dutch standing like a meter and a half near anna and not even gratulation her. Shane on the dutch. Bad loser
Bullshit. The swiss knew. And the polish and israel girl knew
The commentators were WAY OFF discussing the potential winners 😂 Absolutely LOVE and ALWAYS for the underdog !! Also: the racer they predicted to win – Mariana Voss – didn’t even place in the top 3.
I’m not familiar with the Olympic road races – QUESTION: Does the ceremonial start count towards the entire race? AND: is it completely fair to ‘start’ in front versus behind, and/or do the racers wear tracking devices like in long distance running events?
4:25:23 she thought she was the Olympic champion until she knew she did not and her face at 4:26:54 is a clear evidence how disappointed she was!
Congratulations for Anna Kiesenhoffer for an amazing race from an Ecuadorian person
Carapaz 🇪🇨 🥇 Kiesenhoffer 🇦🇹

2:11:00 to 2:11:10 is so representative of the final result, and it makes me so happy 😊😊
