He’s on another level right now. Pidcock has no luck today.
I don't know MvdP full spring classics schedule. But I hope he's not peaking a bit too soon. Pidcock is being hampered somewhat by starting 2nd or 3rd row on the grid. So getting baulked or bumped out by the pack. That overtake for 2nd on Thursday was epic though.https://youtu.be/Ov3wHnqK3zE?si=Un4PWD2giv4d54yB&a...
Pidcock also did a good interview with Matt Stephens for Sigma Sports channel

Stephens also interviewed MvdP after he became World Champ in Scotland

Regarding the spitting, Yes, he probably shouldn't have reacted to it. But I don't blame him if its true dheads were throwing piss on him! I assume his team will not be taking it further.

Just been through the start list and I can’t see Van Aert or Van der Poel. Hope I’m wrong.
You’re not. Van Aert isn’t racing much in the early season as he’s targeting Flanders and Roubaix. I’d imagine that van der Poel is thinking similar. Pidcock, Pogacar, Mohoric and Alaphilippe are starting though, so there’s every chance it’ll still be a great race.

Wow!
That was impressive. One looked like he was out on a Sunday training ride and the others in a really tough race!
Looking at the profile it does look like the race where you get one of the smallest advantages from being in a group. Relatively speaking a larger % of the course is off road than the cobbled classics.That was impressive. One looked like he was out on a Sunday training ride and the others in a really tough race!
But even so the group should have very easily been able to get him back. The DS's need to start reading up on game theory.
