Don't forget that while he was catching up he was literally shoving other riders who were going at a reasonable speed out of the way. It's impossible to oversell how commanding a performance that was. That crash, with a level playing field, would have taken anyone out of contention. They didn't show time gaps at the time but he must have lost around 2-3 minutes. Then he wins the whole thing by 1:25. Virtually solo the whole time from the crash. It's just mind boggling. It'll be really interesting to see where he goes from here, except to Quickstep. btw he also has 9 caps for the Belgian U15/16 football teams, because why not

Just winning the world champs by over 3 minutes. Nothing dodgy about this at all.

It was insane how long that wait felt. 7 minutes and the top 10 still isn't in completely

They've let the break go a long way out, seems like everyone wants the French to work. Feels like this race has already been awarded to Alaphilippe so hopefully something different happens (and the different thing isn't Valverde winning). Took a punt on Kwiatkowski because 18/1 was pretty generous.

If they still have a minute plus at the top it's going to be interesting

The climbs not long enough for them to catch him. I think Valgren might make this stick.
