I saw a Dane pulling on the front for the last few Kms and wondered for whom that dude is working. Sagan's teammate, perhaps? Can't remember if Valgren was/is a teammate

Historically the riders with small national squads tend to be mercenaries or ride for trade teams. One huge exception I can think of is the Irish riders in the Sean Kelly / Stephen Roche era. The two best riders were great friends, the others understood their place, and they worked really well together. |

The last 5 years winners have gone: Portugal, Poland, Slovakia, Slovakia, Slovakia.... If you just look at the podiums, you get: Slovakia: 3 Spain: 3 Australia: 3 Great Britain: 1 Belgium: 1 Norway: 1 Lithuania: 1 Portugal: 1 Poland: 1 Yes, 5 years is not a great sample size to look at. We could just as easily go on a run that sees Belgium win 5 in a row. Just saying that the recent past would suggest that maybe some new tactics would be a good idea for some of the "power house" teams.

Looking at the backside line ......
The line which tells today's story. Their backsides, this line shows the difference between their bike throws. https://www.instagram.com/p/BZcHK59lR3r |

good call, took me a few times to catch the move, as the heli was so far away, but you are right, he slipped into that gap perfectly then pounced.

When I saw the replay, I commented that the difference might have been age/limberness. Sagan' wife is a dancer and I wonder if he incorporates dancing into his training. |
