Both Theuns and Stuyven looked so strong yet they missed that GVA/Sagz group. Didn't Sagan/GVA drop them? |

Kirchen, you gotta admit that this is more fun to watch than that hill in AliDubai.
Cobbles is easily my fave part of the season so not even a contest. But that hill in Dubai was not bad by these boring Middle East standards.
Although this is over. The winner is in that GVA/Sagz group. |

Vanmarcke and GVA waited so others come back. |

Sagan seems to have a bit of bike issues there apparently. |

Sagan started Molenberg in last position so he was probably stuck behind a slower rider. |

Stybar looked the strongest of Quickstep actually. Guess he might be their man. |

Sagan might be best sprinter of those 3.
But in a 1vs1 or reduced group sprint, nobody has the experience/speed combination of GVA.
He is miles ahead of Sagan in those kind of finishes. |

GVA once again beats Sagan at the end of a hard race. |

Fantastic race and great start to the cobble season GVA with a great win and Vanmarcke looking good for Cannondale as well. Could be an outside bet for P-R I think.
Sagan just got his sprint wrong today and was outdone by a more experienced GVA

Maybe, but it seems to me that Sagan does too much work at the front and it affects his sprint. |

Sagan giving GVA shitty small races to make him believe he could beat him in a sprint at Ronde or Roubaix typical banter from Peterz

Great to see GVA again win even i Am from Slovakia His racing style is really good. It seems that those broken ankle which he had in november does not cause any major restrictions for him |

Well, 0 votes for BMC but GVA does it. Sagan really strong, Stuyven and Theuns looked good too and I liked Gilbert as well after the crash. The 3 strongest were in the front though, and GVA did it perfectly once again, even though I thought Sagan had it.
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

Sagan is sick apparently, that should explain the loss.
