    1. Between MVDP and WVA it could have been either. WVA had it with a good timing of his sprint start, mid recovery and was able to sustain all on a straight line. MVDP had to launch, and was all over the place without a single recovery stroke.

    2. The rules are only a guideline guys, you can bend them. No lubing the chain during the race/blood doping…they are just guidelines. Nothing to see here, this sport is not corrupt in the slightest.

    3. So many people in the comments like to argue what could of happened but from the evidence displayed in this race it is 100% for certain regardless of how the race might have otherwise played out, at the finish line it was Wouts day, and all those guys are really good at turning their pedals !

    4. This is why none of these are the GOAT. Le Cannibale would've either shooked them or still wopped them in the sprint! This just proves none come close to Eddy, as he could outsprint the fastest, shooked the strongest, dropped the best climbers, dropped the best descenders, and beaten everyone in the TT. Argument of who is the GOAT settled once and for all!

    5. Pog was silly, he should've started very early, let the other 2 pass him and jumped on a wheel for a second go , forcing one of them to actually go early and give him a good sit. Crikey that bloke needs to do some track racing!

    6. TP should have stayed on the wheels for the last 5k to have even a small chance in the sprint. He needs to do this in every classic, no more 4th places like last year.
