Vuelta a Burgos 2024 | Pavel Bittner sprints to victory on stage 1 in frantic finale
CyclingMonday, 05 August 2024 at 16:55
Pavel Bittner has sprinted to victory on the opening stage of the 2024 Vuelta a Burgos in a frantic finale in Burgos itself.
With three Spaniards getting themselves into the breakaway of the day, the most notable of who being Diego Pablo Sevilla of Team Polti Kometa, the peloton were always keeping the time gap manageable and with 14 kilometres left of the day, the catch was complete.
At the intermediate sprint, where bonus seconds were on offer, Team DSM-Firmenich's returning Max Poole bagged the three seconds, the could prove key in the general classification by the end of the race. From there, it was all about the bunch sprint finale. In the fight for the line, it was Poole's teammate Pavel Bittner who secured the win ahead of Giacomo Nizzolo and Ivan Garcia Cortina.

- 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

- Agreed except the length of climbs, pretty sure you can stretch that to about a km unless we’re talking about half a dozen in quick succession.Mistermaumau21-12-2024

- A bit much to suggest that Pogacar is better than MvdP on most terrains. The only terrain Pogacar is clearly better is long climbs, on any other terrain they are pretty even except flat cobbles and short and steep climbs (max a few 100 mtrs) where MvdP is clearly better than Pogacar.Velovibes21-12-2024

- That’s the most stupid thing I’ve read for a long time, did you not go to school and learn even the most basic physics? Aero depends on one thing only, drag, drag depends speed and the relationship is squared and apart from maybe at zero or the speed of sound or due to side winds that relationship is valid at all speeds, it dies not “suddenly” start at a magic number. Very simply, the faster you go the more the effect becomes important. If you think 25km/h is needed to have noticeable effects you’re delusional, athletic WR are cancelled as soon as winds top 2m/s that’s 7.2km/h, why because the assistance is already too important at that speed and the times prove it. You don’t even consider wind which can significantly increase the effective speed for aerodynamics and you underestimate speed of climbs, 6% is ridden more at 30 than 25km/h, a speed at which early generation high rims were considered to have more advantages than disadvantages. And finally, as in normal races you can’t just switch bikes according to terrain, it’s pretty pointless to discuss climbs as a separate situation, the aero will have justified itself plenty during the rest of the ride.Mistermaumau21-12-2024
- If you look at how much TP progressed in that 1 1/2 years you can no longer say that’s nothing. If Remco improves as much he’s a challenger!Mistermaumau21-12-2024
