There were roughly 40 people at the finish line.... Great venue choice, really.
and half of them was from Slovakia :)
Cavendish, Cavendish is there, Cavendish.........Sagannnn :D
Small crowds, a course with no spectators out in the barren desert, UCIs decision NOT to show the event live on RUclips in the US.
Poor decision-making, UCI.
Think elite men's was sold to the likes of eurosport here in the UK or equiv in the US. Hosting the ride here was a bit stupid though imo.
Agreed.
The decision to award 2016 hosting to Qatar was taken by Pat McQuaid, former UCI president... a little parting gift to the sport he screwed so badly.
Solid point!
I see nothing wrong about racing in the desert. Road bike racing should not be exclusive for countries with green forests or hilly environment. And yes, there isn't a big crowd for road racing in Qatar, just like there is no crowd for camel racing in the US. Point here is: Sports take time to integrate in a culture. Hosting the world championship and similar events in Qatar accelerated the integration of cycling in the community of the local and neighbouring region.
Horrible video of the finish and what is up the sound track? Part of the deal? Where were the spectators?
It's a horrible video of the whole race.
There are never any spectators at the Middle East races. They are a joke. Couple dozen bored wives and girlfriends around the finish line maybe.
He should have went to specsavers! Sagan had his hands in the air and he was still shouting "It's cavendish". lol
A shockingly awful attempt at providing highlights, the UCI should be ashamed
look on the bright side...at least you didn't have to watch 6 hours worth
Amazing SAGAN
Absolutely superb! Congratulations Peter!!
I swear to god, that commentator had no idea who won until they showed the close-up. The split when the leading group formed wasn't shown, neither was the group behind shown chasing. Spectators were expectably completely absent, riders fainted from the heat - even though Cookson claimed otherwise - and if it hadn't been for the wind that might just have been the most boring one day race in modern cycling ever. But still, they could've made a good video out of it but they didn't.
Felicitaciones a Peter Sagan por su grandiosa defensa y por su nuevo título de campeón del mundo.
Next time the WCS should be in a country where a they ppl are interested in cycling!
Cool soundtrack, awful commentary as usual (Cavendish was never even close to leading the sprint... so why is his name all we hear?).
Nick C he is a British commentator
I agree, I hate this guy's commentary. AND you're right, Sagan was never leading the sprint.
That's exactly what I was thinking the whole time. This commentator was watching Cavendish instead of the actual leading rider. poor video, awful soundtrack. This is what petroleum money can buy.
Sagan is the best!
Dear UCI, would you put some real highlights and remove that stupid music.
Honestly that was just horrendous. You think they'd spend a little more money on highlights for their premiere event of the season.
That was music??
Pretty sure it was some sort of Kurdish folk music...or maybe a Qatari fertility music.
to be fair, they actually highlighted everything that happened that mattered. that last attack, then the sprint finish.
Where there any climbs or descents or just flat roads ???
Why did you guys edit out the key moment in the final few hundred meters of the video clip, where Sagan and 'Dish separate with Cav going left and Sagan barely squeezing right toward the fence???
Leaving that moment in would only add a couple of seconds to the finish. Add it back in please! It makes the finish that much more amazing.
Great coverage of a awful event should never have been held in Qatar
Alex Morrison this was honestly a very entertaining race
Huck Norris It was entertaining but at what cost to rider safety. And look at the crowds virtually non existent
Money talks, Fans are nothing
Cav still talks to this day about how gutted he was at coming second here. For a man of his calibre, you know it’s bad
cool music
It's a shame for the UCI at all. Videos of the races are poor. And Doha sucked. What about the Arctic 2018?
Iconic podium
Best parts of the race are MISSING
This is an embarrassing video production-wise. Just hideous.
Where I can watch full race video??,, please help 🙏

nice ROACE
The music is straight out of black hawk down. Also the commentators and selectors of the nations to host the world champs should all be fired.
Anyone outside of Britain that could watch the livestream?? Why would UCI restrict it? Then finishing with this horrible clip.
all the 3rd world countries
Wouldn´t surprise me. Has anyone put a bid on santa Claus this year?
Haha I wonder who the commentator was supporting...
Good,
music?
WTF with the music?? Music to curdle milk by???
If there were any finish where we should have a slow mo side view this would be it. But nope.
This bike was really easy to assemble ruclips.net/user/postUgkxMesz3KOGEmwmvyKQfLfrRSUXLFzfVHZA and required very few adjustments out of the box. The wheels did not require any truing/adjustments. The frame had some small scratches, but nothing major.I did replace the seat though - the seat it came with was very uncomfortable. The tires need to be re-inflated every 4-5 days, but this appears to be quite common for the narrow 700x25 tires.Overall, in my opinion, this bike looks and rides like a much more expensive bike.
UCI should be ashamed of itself. No spectators, and no safety on this course. How long did injured cyclists wait for an ambulance. Moreover, why hasn't the UCI done anything about motorcycle and cars on course - how many cyclists need to get injured or die because the UCI is useless. You are paid to make the big decisions, which includes safety, drugs (TUE's included).
wow they had to go about 27 miles an hour for that time
music wtf
Would have been a tuff job
Cav would've won if he chose his line right😬
This is BS editing.
Terrible highlights video.
tom bonenen moest winnen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Very bad commentator
WTF UCI
That awkward handshake from Mark Cavendish and Peter sagan tho
The saddest WC. It was a big mistake to go race there.
Shame on you UCI. Corruption disgrace. Spectators were not allowed to enter the venue.
