Win time for Mads? Probably not the best race for him with the amount of hills, but he's shown some good stuff so far, so hopefully that continues.

Another cobbled classic where Polanc has often done fairly well in the past with two top 5 results in his last three participations. Most sectors are uphill so that is an advantage for him. I'm hoping for another top five.

Thanks for the great preview, Laurens.
We're here hoping for a top-25 by Ulloa again, but so far his maximum was just inside the top-50, so that scenario is most likely

Anderberg has been promising so far this season, hoping we can manage another top 8 or so here too. Between 5th and 8th seems to be his spot, at least strength-wise so far this season. |

Another opportunity for Siric to mix it up with the big boys. He was already decent here last year so I would be slightly disappointed if he didn't follow up on his good results so far.
Thanks for the preview Laurens

Need the Franceville Per here and not the Strada/Macs one. That's really what it comes down to. He obviously won last year, and we've had a lot of success here in the past with Trentin's win too. Hopefully we get some favorable AI strategy.
Thanks for the preview!

Looks like another good profile for Theuns, and his 3rd place two years ago kind of confirms that. At least for his maxed self, that is ^^
However, Macskako showed that he can still compete with the best on a great day, and I hope that all these hills will favour him against the pure cobblers. And yeah, you'll see pretty much the same text in the RVV discussion thread I guess
Good luck to all, thanks for the preview with all these achievements listed!

Vermeersch's first leadership in a classic. Hope he can carry that form from Franceville back to his home in Flanders  Thanks for the preview Laurens, excited for the report!

Kasperkiewicz always did well here, let's hope Tiller will get his classics season going here as well. |

Feared that Pedersen was wasting his energy, then thought he had it in the bag with 4k left. But he did indeed run out of legs. A pity, considering he probably would have at least got a place on the podium if he had saved himself for the sprint. But oh well, I prefer to see our riders attacking and creating a selective race. Just not our luck this time. Congrats to bbl on another good win for Per.

Okay, so as usual we get another result to prove I overreacted to the first two classics. Per (along with Wisniowski and Gerts) obviously showed up alert and ready to go this time around. The team didn't waste time efforts in the break or anything, and he stayed near the front. To be honest, I'm surprised he was able to hold on. He attacked first, was in the wind responding to Polanc, and then launched his sprint pretty early. But I guess I should never underestimate his engine when he's on a good day. Meanwhile, Pedersen had a frustrating day. Guess everyone gets a turn, commiserations to Grieg.
Amazing to defend the title! It really does feel like E3 is our race now, having won it 3 of the last 4 years with different riders. Points wise, another win was basically necessary and obviously a big score for us. Wish Meiler was doing better depth wise, but when you win the race, you can't worry about a few down-ballot races. We got a tremendous result.
Thank you for the report!

Theuns proving once again that he still has the legs in these hilly races, 5th is another fantastic result for him!
Sending Küng up front was the perfect strategy again, so Eddie didn't need to worry about chasing work - at least not until the break was caught. Paprstka also had a great day, staying with Theuns for quite a long time, then finishing 20th - a very strong result.
In the end, I thought Theuns might even fight for the win if the others ahead of him should fade - but he didn't really have much left himself. Looking at the names ahead of him - and some behind him - 5th is still a great result, and definitely more than the Top 10 we were hoping for. Now let's hope he can also handle the monuments well, as MSR pretty much was a disaster - hopes are a bit higher than 17th for RvV now!
Congrats to Carlsberg, Per definitely has found his legs now!
And thanks for the nice report, kb, great coverage

Looks like Polanc took his successes from earlier races too much to his heart and was leading the chase far too often. Seems like he was leading the first chasing group in every second pic. Not the ideal path to success for him and he paid for it with a result that is worse than he can be. Attacking on flat roads might not be ideal for his skillset either...

Another top 10 from Anderberg is good. This one was rather anonymous, though, which meant I hoped for even more approaching the sprint. But great to have him up there and in contention. Can't ask for more, really, seeing the opposition.
Congratulations to bbl on the win. Another big win! And with it, Per is on track for another sensational season. |
