- Is that all you have to say??
- It's Pogačar not Pogacar.
- That was a really impressive and composed performance from Remco.
- This was really smart. Pogacar worked quite hard to keep Evenepoel off, even though it looked like he was about to make contact on a couple of occasions. If he dropped Remco and MVDP together, it looked like they might be able to collaborate to bring him back on the flats before the finale.
As it was, it was quite amazing to see all five superhumans in the race finish solo, and in perfect order. Any one of the five would be a worthy winner in almost any other era of cycling.
- The race organisers were afraid, and that is why there was no disqualifying. If there had been disqualifying, the peloton would've been rocked and they'd have learnt who's in charge. Of course the train should've been delayed for the race, but that is irrelevant. If cars went on the course, would riders ride straight into them? Certainly not. Mathieu van der Poel is the true winner of the Tour des Flandres 2026, regardless of whether Pogačar was stronger. It should be like what happened to Senegal for their actions at the AFCON final
- I agree , a crash like that would be horrific in full leathers with body armour, let alone in Lycra
- Mads you have another chance next week at Paris Roubaix. Flanders is Flanders but PR is a whole different ball game. You are made for this race.
- Tadej really had to dig deep to stay away from MVDP. I think staying away from Remco, where he did more work than MDVP, cost him, but once he got a gap more than 15 seconds he simply cruised at a higher speed than his rivals and looked less ragged doing so. Kudos!
- It would be best for Florian Vermeersch to leave the UAE and sign a good contract somewhere else, because it is more than obvious that he only wants to be the captain.
Pogi allowed him to be the captain until today, and today he could not give 100% for Pogi. It is time for him to go.
- An excellent result and an accurate self diagnosis. Much like in the mountains against Pogacar and Vingegaard, he doesn’t have the explosive acceleration to stay with Pogacar and van der Poel. A commendable debut at a crazy race, better than Pogacar’s (when he was fourth in a two up sprint).
