Amstel Gold **spoilers**

[Pro Tour Punditry]

A new parcours, and a number of top riders on form; and the opportunity for someone to maybe scupper their chances if they mark each other too closely.

It's been a Spring season of the long attack. One of the best I can remember for a long while.
And the women are back as well.

I'm looking forward to this one.

Maybe by the style Police?

Maybe by the style Police?

Given it's the Netherlands, more likely by people who think orange is a good colour for... well... anything.

The Bikes have been found so if you going to watch sun glasses may be needed

I had been hoping we'd get extended coverage of the race, but just had a look at Eurosport scheduling and they don't start their live feed until 1.25pm.

Rai sport starts an hour earlier than Eurosport or Rai 3 but it's anyone's guess whether it'll be coverage or chat!

Just checked Eurosport schedule again and they have live coverage from 12.25pm, most likely to be the non-commentary version for the first hour

Same here. Did think I'd see the extended coverage, so I'll have to make do and kill time by watching the live game between Ross County and Celtic (which is a slightly better option than watching the snooker) until the cycling starts.

6km left in the women's race.

Eurosport player coverage is commentary free, not sure I like that

Van der Breggen wins. Deignan 2nd.

Van der Breggen wins. Deignan 2nd.

The new surname in 2nd spot had me confused for a while there!

According to the Dutch commentary I was watching her name is "Lizzie Armistead, oh excuse me, Deignan"!
