Paris-Nice 2021 **SPOILERS**

[Eziemnaik]

Trying to make the most of the season because it is not guaranteed to continue?

Love that, boring day , not one attack since the flag dropped then with about 70km to go 11 belgian classics riders decide to have a laugh and all shot out the front , never seen owt like it , peleton must have wondered what the hell was happening, .i would love to know who orchestrated that

It was excellent.

I’m a day or two behind on coverage.
The commentators just mentioned that Ineos G. have rim brakes. Is this solely a wheel change speed issue or anything more than that?
Thanks.

Roglic is a fekin animal.......

Adan Blythe had to eat his words, ten minutes previous he said roglic looks to be suffering and on a bad day etc, fair play to him he did say he got it wrong.

Dashed unsporting, wot?

yeah i did feel for Gino Mader, but as they say , there are no gifts in competative sport, he really thought he had it in the bag though

No gifts, except all the wins great (and some dodgy) yellow jerseys have gifted over the years.

A wins a win......

FOMO ???? give us a clue

As @Eziemnaik suggests = Fear Of Missing Out (should later events get cancelled).

Time bonuses have somewhat killed that. Shame 😕

 

[ColinJ]

I wouldn't want to win only because a rider better than me decided that he'd be generous... It is one thing to share the work at the front of a break in return for a win, but to be handed a win as a favour - no thanks.

Mader took what had happened far better than, I think it was, George Bennett a few years back when a whole group passed him immediately before the finish.

 

[Adam4868]

Seriously can't believe anyone think he should of "let" him win...different shirts give a clue to different teams 🙄
What do you reckon Roglics teammates would of thought of all the graft they did for him...for him to then gift Mader a win ?
Not forgetting the cash....
