The Belgian calendar has seen yet another semi-classic today with the Elfstedenronde where some of the world's best sprinters came out to race, and Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl Team's Fabio Jakobsen took the prize.
The Dutch sprinter planted his superiority in Bruges, directly beating Caleb Ewan who he will be facing in the upcoming Tour de France often, but also Tim Merlier who sprinted for third place.

- Yes ok, but then what were the exact details then, did he cross the line, did his team not ask the stewards committee if they thought it was an exceptional case? He got the time but not the ranking, not even the last ranking, which suggests it was looked at and decided but explain why you feel it wasn’t right? There are only two cases it doesn’t apply, team time trials and summit finishes, so flat or not makes no difference.Mistermaumau13-04-2025
- Rolling resistance goes up with weight. Also, I did specify "all else held equal".acem8213-04-2025
- Even light rain is tricky as it has been dry since ages and the normal roads will be covered in smeary dust that won’t get washed off fast enough. Not sure how many of the cobbled sections are open to heavy traffic during the year so that’s a different problem.Mistermaumau13-04-2025
- Kopecky thought she could ride everyone off her wheel with her attacks! Guess Vos proved her otherwise! SD Worx has some internal team issues again !frieders313-04-2025
- When did the UCI stop checking the shift lever angles? Kopecly's were so far turned in it surely would have violated the UCI rules if they were enforcing it.frieders313-04-2025
- Martin would not have climbed a few places in the GC. every point counts in the relegation battle.heinz12-04-2025
- Now they have his and hers trophies at home ;-) Could make great cycling kids too.Mistermaumau12-04-2025

- The stories of Tadej were from his local races against older kids, not the same as international level, but as Maria says, at that level a 2 year difference as a teen is enormous, if then you go further and compare a slow and quick developer you’re stretching the physical maturity difference to 3 maybe 4 years.Mistermaumau12-04-2025
- Didn't like to see Kopecky and Wiebes attacking after a big crash in the leading group. Poetic justice in the end. Ferrand-Prevot hit the deck in that same crash. And in Catalunya UAE also increased the pace at the front of the bunch when some of the favourites went down. No bad karma in this case though.heinz12-04-2025
