Cavendish looks like a dwarf compared to Sieberg.  |

That would be a no.
Sporza for me.

I think Cav being so good helps races like this and G-W because people go as hard as they can up every speed bump

Indeed, you can't beat him in a sprint. So you need to attack the race so that that just does not happen.

So... how odd does it look to see a Euskaltel guy up there in the front of a cobbled race.
To me, it's really odd.

I did a double take when he followed Lund.

Oop. A crash. Oroz from Eusktaltel, Commeyne from Lambowkredit and Pavarin from Vacansoleil.
Also... a liquigas guy.

He said that to get the most out of a race he has to race it really hard. Maybe this is his way of doing that.

I think they had Gorka Izaguirre in E3 aswell, he followed a late attack there. Euskaltel are clearly changing focus for next season, starting already now
But more seriously, this has been a bit boring so far, hopefully the peloton goes full out on the final climb on Kemmelberg, giving us some aggressive racing after Kemmelberg aswell. If not, it looks like a win for the World Champion, which is also nice, always nice if that jersey wins a classic. |

And then he put Lund in trouble on the Kemmelburg
