UCI Road World Championships Sept. 19-27 **spoilers**

[SWSteve]

You don't often see a Diamondback at the sharp end of a race of this calibre, do you?

No, I bet they've loved it!

 

[mjr]

Looking like a messy sprint finish. Germany's prayers answered or a Sagan shocker coming up?

 

[SWSteve]

Sagan and Van Avaermart, they can't both come second!

 

[deptfordmarmoset]

Saggers looks shagged.

Not any more, he doesnt!

 

[Apollonius]

What do you think of that Oleg?

Love it.

 

[SWSteve]

Boom! Peter 'great laugh' Sagan gets the win!

 

[Bobby Mhor]

Superb win..

 

[Dave Davenport]

That was great!

 

[SWSteve]

It's nice of Tissot to give a watch!

 

[smutchin]

Cracking finish. Thought the commentators called the result too early - looked like he might get caught, but well done to him for hanging on.

 

[shouldbeinbed]

Happy for Sagan. Interesting attempt at geopolitics too.

Good on him.

 

[jarlrmai]

Congrats PS

 

[rich p]

Really pleased for Sagan - a worthy champ and a bit of a showman too.

 

[Berk on a Bike]

Sagan will rock that rainbow jersey in his races during the coming 12 months.

That was utterly brilliant, and used as much of his descending strength to pull it off.

Like the fact (albeit a bit garbled) that the first thing he mentioned in his interview was trying to deal with a much bigger issue than cycling.
