Episode notes
Was it ever in doubt? Maybe? Tadej Pogačar attacks exactly where you'd think he would be not before the rest of the peloton gave beating him a really good go. Sanny and Katy reconvene post-Ronde van Vlaanderen where there was a redemption, of sorts for Wout Van Aert, with Pedersen and van der Poel making the podium and kudos to Stuyven and Ganna in amongst it all. But... are we bored of Pogacar winning everything...? Lots to mull over here. In the women's race, we lost Elisa Longo Borghini early, and that was a big blow for the race which was run from a four-up sprint by the World Champion Kopecky. Could and should the others have tried something else to beat her? Pauline Ferrand-Prévot has to settle for second with a creditable ride for Liane Lippert in third as Tour de France champ Kasia Niewiadoma misses out. Symmetry in both races as the World Champions win, how does this set us up for Paris-Roubaix next weekend? We chat through it all, there's some slow-mo Pogacar and why the finish line couldn't be more boring if the organisers tried!
