Yes I know, my bad Florian Vermeersch is not Gianni Vermeersch. Those unique belgium riders…
MVDP is the best! He made my day. ❤ Suck on that Pogi 💉🩸
Not real gravel
In Europe gavel means just in between the MTB (very technical) and road cycling (very aerobe). Sort of cross country cycling which is very attractive to watch. In US gravel means very long straights, high depence on luck with numerous flats and like road racing very aerobe and low technical. Kind of a romantic and heroïc look to it when you see them struggle in the dust on seemingly end less roads but I am personally very happy with these European versions. Even though strade Bianchi is a lot prettier than going through parcs and parking garages in Leuven. That was too much of a circus. We have the cyclocross for that.
Strade bianche walmart version lol
2:54 LOL
You: Belgium is in control, so MVDP is going to have to watch.
Reality: Alpecin is coming to the front to set the pace for MVDP.
Guys out one thing in your head, numbers mean nothing if the other guy is just waaaay to strong 😉
Belgium could do anything but the outcome would be the same, MVP wining the jersey.
182 km and VDP dominando, felicitaciones 🥳 Fue muy emocionante ver a tantos deportistas juntos. También pude documentar parte de la carrera 😉
Excelente transmisión y análisis 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
just a freaking road race with a bit of dust lol, they are all running roadbikes not gravel bikes
Спорт, это то лучшее, что придумало человечество 😊😊😊
fool belgians 🫣🤷♂
le sang de POUPOU resurgit et vaincre :)))
So little knowledge. They're not the Belgium team. Two of the Belgian riders ride for MvdP.
🇺🇦 Хто би сумнівався 💪
Nederland: we bring MVDP
Belguim: This is our race, can we please play nicely?
😂😂😂
I do hope the spirit of gravel is not dead and WE can keep it alive. Not too technical course quess the tyrewidth 😂😂😂 good video thanks🎉
we need a LIV golf of cycling to take out UCI BS
Pidcock didn't do it because he's very selective on what he does so he can win, on this track, Pidcock would eat dust compared to the power output of the size of MVDP . This is why Pidcock gets too much praise, he just rides multiple discipline according to track, just look at his stats in XC MTB etc.
It was a weak field with 1 great rider , Van Der Pole and the Belgians. I agree that other nations have much better roads for a gravel or rough road race! Peter Sagan grew up on gravel roads in Slovakia. That and great tactics is why he was a dominate racer. Van Der Pole has similar skills to Sagan and could win numerous World Championships like Sagan.
.
Terrible commentary, just criticised the format and the riders. I rode on Saturday and it was very technical and a brutal hard course.
What's up with all the non-competitors riding casually on the race course? They could cause a crash…….
This gravel seems more like dirt than gravel but i guess in my mind gravel biking is biking on anything that isnt cement or asphalt
