Considering Paris Roubaix, Milan san Remo Amstel Gold Race, RVV x2, etc, etc, he is now considering not to cross the next season, but hey, either way, who does that?
@@raycath0de that's what i meant by strange. when you lose grip you also lose ground speed, so maybe MVDP hit his brakes at that point for wout to pass.
Not yet. 1 more title to go. De Vlaeminck still there. well tbh, he probably already is the goat of cyclocross, but to equal the record he needs 1 more.
He is not yet the greatest, the gretaesd ever is still eric de vlaeminck , he had +600 victories and 1 world title more ;-) . In total victories MVDP is almost halfway ....
So what… De vlaeminck exclusively focussed ln cyclocross. He has raced way more races. If we look at win percentage, Mathieu is way ahead. De Vlaeminck also never showed this kind of dominance as Mathieu has showed this season.
Unthill now Eric de Vlaeminck was the best cyclocrosser ever, if you like it or not . But If MVDP wins 2 times more the world champioship he will be the best cyclocross rider ever !! Eric de Vlaeminck didnt get more then 600 cyclocross victories for free ! In fact we NEVER could tell for sure who was the best of all time . For sure it was not Nijs !! MVDP is for sure the best allrounder in cycling from over the world, close followed by pidcock . To teel you this MVDP dont even have to be WC mountenbike ! MVDP is for sure the best allround cyclist ... @@sxn_yannick1072
I wonder if we can even compare. Different times. Less races. Some peope forget Sven Nys who has won much more races then Mathieu did and Mathieu ever will...Otoh I wonder if the VLaeminck was facing similar competition like MvdP did with WvA. Without Wout, MvdP would now have been at 9 wins. But there is no need for a GOAT. It is personal. In football for me the best player that I ever saw (with a huge gap actually0) is Diego Maradona. He also faced much tougher defeninding than Messi ever did for instance. And from there on we go: the times were different, pitches far worse etcetc. So may it is better to say De Vlaeminck was the best of the 60/s and 70s/ may be Liboton in the 80s, Nys in the 00s first part of the 10s and MvdP from 2015-2024 (at least). Difficult to compare.
Right now no one even comes close to his level, he's in the world of his own a true beast on a bike!
Well done Scott a very nice video! Thank you🎉
Glad you enjoyed it
Great review.
The GOAT
Awesome!
Well above Nys, MVDP is a league of his own
Considering Paris Roubaix, Milan san Remo Amstel Gold Race, RVV x2, etc, etc, he is now considering not to cross the next season, but hey, either way, who does that?
around 11:00 minute mark with wout almost losing control yet surpassing mathieu, looks rather strange.
the sprint to the obstacle for position is common in cyclocross battles, on this occasion he lost grip when coming out
of the wheel to overtake

GOAT
Way better than Nys and much better than Vlaeminck who competed in an era when CX was something else
Not yet. 1 more title to go. De Vlaeminck still there. well tbh, he probably already is the goat of cyclocross, but to equal the record he needs 1 more.
either him or Sven Nys
what of Fem who also keeps winning for the Dutch woman.
She sure does, but only for 2 years now. I do see her continue her dominance, but hopefully Puck Pieterse will have something to say about it too.
Past few years he only races half a season or the wins would be way higher
First
like MVDP💪🚲
New Armstrong? ? ? ? ?
Eric De Vlaeminck is the best cyclocross racer ever. Seven World Titles in eight years, six in a row.
@@Banjoman-p7tWait an year.

Nope, he is not! That title belongs to Eric deVlaeminck
Honestly, he is.....Eric may have more World titles, but that's not the same as The Greatest.....
@@Andy_ATB It's not about World titles alone. De Vlaeminck is still the greatest ever.

Best cyclist of all time. Sorry Eddy.
