Great win from Betancur in Belgium! Martin takes the overall, unsurprisingly.
Gilbert loooking a bit more like his old self, but clearly still not quite as good as he could be.

Betancourt was very strong, just how he closed the gap to Kolobnev, amazing!

Great ride from Betancourt and continues his great form from France.

Firsanov is so good.. Amazing. Remember him from a couple of years back when he was on the danish Team Designa Køkken. He was really strong back then, but now he is just even better. He should get a contract with a ProTeam (Katusha) |

kidding me? Gilbert looked worse than in FW and AGR (where he ended 3rd and 4th).

Bob Jungels (Leopard-Trek) wins Paris-Roubaix Espoirs. By a margin of almost 3 minutes. What a talent he is.

His initial explosion was quite good and he was riding more to the front than he has the rest of this season.
@Alakagom - I hope that he gets yet another update in the db, including his potential

No and no.
I wonder if you even have been watching the spring classics this season. Because you're wrong on both accounts.
His explosion was even worse than in the classics and he had more difficulty following attacks than in the april classics! Even when the great explosiveness that is Tony Martin accelerated, Gilbert was the one of the favorites that took the longest time closing the gap :?

He came here without much form so given the circumstances I'd say he was doing alright.

Alright for an average man, not for the superstar he is supposed to be, but he will be back in july/autumn i think.
