Take the pressure off Match pedison look at this group they had chasing as well Lawrence piy in there matcha Vanderpool mat pedison and Vanderpool would choose to use the plug strats the plow streets the plowed tracks across the Farmland to really lay on the pressure and continue to reduce
That leading group and that he would do too it wasn’t quite the day for vimma Lisa bik as they had one year ago when w b and Kristoff laort rode clear to the Wi because this would be what was again being reduced at the front end Jonathan
Mal being caught the Italian Rider and as soon as he was caught mt’s pedison going on the attack Lawrence piy just using cleverly much of underp to get across that Gap as well and there would be four in the lead the young 21-year-old kiwi doing a brilliant ride
For group armor ref in there and of course with the numbers little Trek would play the game again Jonathan Milan going back on the attack once again taking the pressure off m pedison in that group chasing them this was the second time that Milan has gone clear
What a spring he’s having as well this was on to the camberg again at Jonathan Milan gone by this point and an opportunity for Matts Pon to lay the pressure on and actually at this stage mat V thepool having a few difficulties just hanging onto the back wheel of uh young Lawrence
Piy those three still clear but look at the chasing group behind final time onto the kelberg in the hardest Direction up the oier side and it was in the the end just that that did for Lawrence piy so close to Hanging On to mat pedon and match Von theol the current world
Champion and the 2019 world champion as they started The Descent down the kelberg and back in the direction the final 35 km to take them into the finish in vam this was the chasing group Ben Turner had kicked it off the British rider for inos grenadiers at the back
There and by this point we knew we were due to be treated to a Sprint finish between mat V theol match pedison they were taking pretty even turns quite long turns being taken by Matthew Vanderpool to get him to the Finish knowing that he had yasper philipson his
Teammate in this group behind and it was a group that had swelled as well initially in the end being driven on by sudar quickstep they went under the flam Rouge 1K to go with about 40 seconds or so to play with Matthew vul and mad pedison we knew we were treated to be

Clubbing hard with Paolini in Wevelgem
Mads is a beast!!!
verstappen and mvdp not winning on the same day is not a coincidence
I don't want discovery+. I want pure cycling on GCN+.
Bravo Milan 😊
Mads had the help of Jonathan. Mathieu burnt a lot of matches before the stint as I couldn’t play the numbers game. Good team work from the lidl trek.
Trek played their cards really well today! 🃏
Fantastic team effort from Trek today! Glad Mads could finish it in style.
Woah, what a sprint 🎉🎉🎉
Thank you for not spoiling the result in the title like most other videos.
MVDP vs Lidl Trek lol… He still needs better team mates to support him.
MILAN is a top top signing for Lidl-Trek
Season 24 best?! Wanted to support
Mads P 100% Mads P is a beast when
Theres 300m left, he is monument
Ready now! Next Sunday can't wait
Pedersen has done well with the long, 14 second sprint. That's the only way to beat van der Poel in a sprint, to outlast him.
There is no chance from 200 meters or less. Mathieu's explosiveness is unmatched, probably even by genuine sprinters.
Lidl killed MVDP, but at the Ronde it will be a different MVDP, more rested, more team support, more cobbles, more hills and more tactical
Awesome team work by Milan and Mads and it paid off. Textbook!
Wow……..
Sensacional corrida.
Sensacional chegada.
Sensacional VITÓRIA 🏆🥇🏅🎖🏵
Sensacional MVTP🥈🚴♂️💨💨💨💪🏼
He’s cut the mullet and he’s lost his form
MVdP really not liking sprinting 2up against Danes. Had flashbacks of him and Asgreen at Flanders
Top Win. Still hope Wally V A or Mads wins De Ronde.
Wait, i thought that MVDP just let him win at the end…. can someone explain why MVDP couldn't continue pedaling sprint till the end? What is the limitation that I am not aware about?
yes!!! I honestly LOVE seeing a 1-day win not going to MvdP or Pogacar. Just wish Wout could have factored into that finale.
MVDP congratulating Mads makes me smile. What a gentleman champion!
Mads jumped early again. Luckily for him MVDP ran out of steam.
Is this is the year we see the start of wva winding down from cycling ?
Great work by Lidl/trek.
