UPDATE! Men's Tre Valli Varesine cancelled due to heavy downpour

Although earlier today the women's peloton faced tough weather conditions and a lot of rain at Tre Valli Varesine it's been decided conditions are now too bad for the men to continue, as the riders have been sent back to the team buses.
According to several teams, in the last minutes it has been confirmed that the race will be delayed and start at 12:20CET whilst two laps have been cut. This will shorten the length of the race from 200 kilometers to, likely, 168; but it won't change the aspect of the race. With the difficult weather conditions it will be very selective and it will be decided on the same roads. Tadej Pogacar and Remco Evenepoel feature among the star-studded field.
UPDATE
At 110km to go, the men's race was paused initially. Although as conditions showed no signs of any improvement, the decision has now been made by race organisers to cancel this year's edition and send the riders back to the safety and warmth of the team bus.

- You continue to platform these two cheats. With that in mind I can no longer use your site. I know my leaving means little, but, sometimes you have to take a stand. See ya!DJ21-12-2024
- Look at what Froome’s won since his last TdF, stop denying there is still more than possible one outcome to the future.Mistermaumau21-12-2024
- Bruyneel understands nothing about clean competition.Sweep21-12-2024
- Exactly. Remco won 3 WT races/stages last year compared to Pogocar's 19. Remco's single stage win in last years TdF earned him a meager 12 seconds over Pogocar who shellac'd him by 9 minutes in GC.Sweep21-12-2024
- Fortunately and as you point out, more than one strategy is possible and worth trying and I’m sure all concerned riders are well informed and counselled on this subject and don’t need such basic personal advice through media from an outsider.Mistermaumau21-12-2024
- The main SPOTY award is "decided" by public vote but the BBC "expert panel" decide who you can choose from, that choice has an equal split of genders and is focussed on the sports BBC show and a disabled athlete. Oh yea the ubiquitous "Pub Games" candidate there too, Darts and Snooker are not sports. The other awards are decided by the "Expert Panel" again it's about the sports BBC show, cycling has had it. Cav got his for his years and achievements in the sport, not just that 35th TDF win. Unless the BBC get access to Pro Cycling it will never feature "adequately" on SPOTYslappers6621-12-2024

- Avoiding him is a good strategy, you get more wins and then you can compete in the TDF relatively relaxed. Pit yourself against Pogi and not only there will be no wins, it will be considerable mental setbackabstractengineer21-12-2024
