@@birdofprey108nah they're not soft. They're faster than the "tough men" of the past. They're just able to congratulate their competition on the finish line because they're not all doped to the eyeballs on pig testosterone.
Thank you for not posting spoilers in the title or thumbnail, unlike some other sites. That actually allows those of us who didn't see the race to enjoy the highlights and the finish!
Philipsen himself said that this is one of the only monuments he can win. I would be surprised if he is a factor in any other classics with MVDP this year. Obviously, MVDP remains a major obstacle for everyone.
@@MB-co6qj Yeah, but he was 46 seconds back on MVDP in that race. That is an A race for MVDP, and I don't think Philipsen believes he can win there. Also, I expect that WVA will be much stronger for Flanders and Roubaix this year, because, unlike last year, his spring campaign is entirely based on those two races.
Pogacar actually surfed the bunch perfectly and found the right wheel to follow. A pure sprinter in Pogacar position could have probably done it. Was a very smart lead-in and excellent sprint, but Jasper is just too fast for him.
Not until the very end. In the last 10-15 minutes, he was mostly off the front trying to follow attacks and win the race, while Philipsen was back in the bunch. Seems likely that the team's plan A was for MVDP to win, and plan B was for MVDP to lead out Philipsen if it came down to a sprint.
@@riderzonthastorm look at the situation at 4:14, you make his case without realising it. On the Poggio van der Poel attacked from the group and chased down Pogacar without a thought about Philipsen. Only after they were caught by Pidcock & Mohoric and the bunch came together did he look for Philipsen. From that situation that was the better decision rather than waiting for someone else to chase and letting the attackers get away.
Pogi says "today was one of the easiest races ever"😳😂😂😂 He just rode a 288km Monument and hwn mixed it up in the sprint. Hes a charcter! I do like him tho 🤘🏻🏴
Not to mention that Matthew Goss the first Aussie winner of MSR and Simon Gerrans. But it's true that Michael Matthews and Caleb Ewan gets a collection of podium finish.
He looks okay, but WVA is training at altitude right now, and will probably be fresher than MVDP in 2-3 weeks. Flanders and Paris-Roubaix are going to be fun to watch.
idk mvdp just came from altitude and wva had started road a bit ealier, mvdp bit longer break after cross. So imo they should peak at the same time. But as MVDP fan I hope for Flanders, Olympics and LBL somehow. Everything else would be cool but tbh Wva also deserves PR once.
Poggi missed a couple of kicks or even had to brake when Philipsen was moving to the left (only visible in the overhead footage). He might have had a chance to win the sprint otherwise. Not Philipsens fault of course, but just saying. Poggi too much of a gentleman to mention it afterwards, he's enjoying the racing even more than the winning!
Great attempt by Pidcock🇬🇧!!! I thought he might just pull that off!!! Whoever says that was a boring finish is full of it. Philipsen hasn't shown us much yet this year but he was the best man today. Chapeau!! I'm just glad MVDP didn't win. Lets not forget about Pogi tho. He was quite explosive💥 in that one attack and then he was mixing it up in the sprint. The lad never stops amazing us. Maybe he'll deal with the heat better this year. We all know thats his kryptonite. Absolutely great finish!! Major upset for Matthews!! I would rather see Matthews win instead of Philipsen but Philipsen⚡ was the better rider today. Chapeau!! 🤘🏻🇬🇧
Van der Poel is not only an extraordinary cyclist, he is generous in working for his partner. Phillipsen did not spend on the chase. He closed the attacks on the Poggio, going down and the chase on Via Roma. Disappointed in Pedersen on the other hand because his partner did everything. Pogačar very selfish. Extraordinary at almost everything...but he doesn't win in a sprint. He burned all his companions. He would have worked for Wellens.
you can see matthews' sunglasses fall down at the sprint there you've gotta think he had an oh shit moment there for a fraction of a second and that ultimately cost him the win
He was stuck in the 11t sprocket and couldn't accelerate out of the corners. You could see him looking down at his gears as they came over the top of the Poggio, using the front changer to go onto the small ring then back on the big ring in an attempt to 'shock' the rear derailleur into action, but it had presumably gone into crash mode (possibly someone ran into it when they bunched together at the top of the climb).
He was not a domestique. He was away from Philipsen trying to win the race for most of the last 10 minutes. They came together for the final sprint, but even then Philipsen was barely on MVDP's wheel. I'm guessing that the team's goal was for MVDP to win unless it came down to a sprint, in which case he should lead out Philipsen.
ANYtime a sprinter wins San-Remo, IT WAS NOT HARD ENOUGH!!! Easy way to get people to stop watching. A sprinter like Lil-PPsen, no less. He deserves to meet the tarmac at 50mph! You are NOW in f*gboy-range, San-Remo, way to go.

This might legitimately be the most stupid comment ever posted on the internet. Congratulations. But you’re right of course, Pogacar should obviously have worked for Wellens, especially given Wellens’ great record in flat sprints (only peak Cavendish or maybe Kittel could compete with Wellens in a flat sprint).

Seven minutes is about the average amount of time I devote to watching MSR every year! Great edit! Thanks for no spoilers!!
That moment at 04:14 when MVDP saw Mohorič attack and then took another look back to make sure Philipsen is following before starting the chase!

philipsen and van der poel are too deadly a duo in classics. drop van der poel or win a sprint against philipsen, choose your poison
Exactly this

How was Pog to hold such a close third against pure sprinters!
On the edge of my seat 😮 what a race and well done to Phililpsen 👏🏾👏🏾
What a brilliant ride by Michael Mathews…..ride of the day for me.
This generation of competitors are a different breed. Competitors on and brothers off the course. Love the camaraderie.
The sportmanship after the finish by Tadej and Michael was great. I don't see that in many other sports.
Delighted for Jasper! Congrats all! What a tight finish!🎉
michael matthews seems like a great guy, frustrating to see him pick up so many second places
I wonder sometimes if the former contributes to the latter. Maybe he’s just too well-adjusted? 😂
MVDP's grand father has the infamous title of Eternal Second
MVDP played the domestique again
yea sadly but makes him a great teammate and hopefully he can be repayed later this season;)

Great Race & Great commentary!! Obrigado!
MVDP brought the entire group back to the front twice. When no one else would.
"F*ckin' hell!" No need to speak Dutch / Flemish to understand how Phillipsen surprised himself there.

With all the bike innovation, gears, waxed chains, and suits, it took 30 years to beat the previous fastest time?
Finally, Jasper Philipsen, the crash-causing Dirty Sprinter, wins clean!
Philipsen has never caused a crash, unlike many other dirty sprinters in the peloton.

Did Remco already come up with an excuse why he didn't win? 😂
No, but Pogi did.

Respekt
that was a spectator that threw his (hers) sunnies at pog? Saw it in the transmission but wasn't sure of what object it was.

I did 242k in 11h moving time (14h elapsed time) 🤣😂😅

So close! Would have much preferred MM or Pogi win it, but can't argue with legs even if the owner is a bit of a dingle
