"I made a mistake and she pulled away" - Annemarie Worst settles for second behind Ceylin del Carmen Alvarado as Superprestige Ruddervoorde

Second place was the best Annemarie Worst could manage at Superprestige Ruddervoorde. 27-year-old Dutchwoman kept pace with Ceylin del Carmen Alvarado for a while, but a mistake put an unassailable distance between them.
“I would of course have liked to win, but it went a bit better today,” the Cyclocross Reds rider recapped in her post-race interview. “It was a very tough race, I expected that a bit. You have to be good at the start, because after that it starts to fall apart a bit. That was the case today too. But it's just a tough round.”

As mentioned, Worst was able to stay in contention at the front for a while but in the second third of the race, Alvarado began to press an advantage. “At one point I made a mistake and she pulled away a bit. The hole remained the same size for a long time, but I was unable to close it again. That was a shame. When I knew it was over? With two laps to go, I just couldn't close the gap. Luckily I was able to keep the gap the same, but I just couldn't get any closer.”
“You couldn't really get a rhythm. It was off the bike, on again, off again. And it just didn't work with the mud. It was a very tough round," she concludes. "It's always nice when you have had a good race. That always gives a bit of confidence."

- 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
