Best highlights Eurosport have put together in recent memory. Thank you for listening to feedback! And great having the live last kilometres video to watch if it's a tight finish.
Congratulations, Van der Poel! Outstanding performance. It would have been nice to see what would have happened, if WVA had not crashed. I love watching WVA and MVDP clash.
Bicycle racing has a history of dirty games competitors play in an attempt to degrade a competitor's performance, or to flat out injure them. Everything from tampering with food and water to paying helicopter pilots to fly close enough to blow competitors around on the road to paying people to crash in front of a competitor. I wonder, if a competitor is paying people to antagonize MVDP in an attempt to degrade his performance. The incident in Australia smelled like that, and it worked judging by Van der Poel's reaction. Some, "fans," said something that angered him so much during the cross season he spit on them. He still won the race, but they got under his skin, so it worked. In most states in the U.S. spitting on someone is a criminal act, and Van der Poel could have had more legal troubles. Something that appeared shady to me happened to WVA not long ago too, but I don't remember the exact incident. It looks like someone, or some people are renting agitators.
Van der Poel in Lisan al Gaib mode! Van Aert, despite the fall, has the shame of recovering and getting as close as possible to the Dutchman or bursting. He is glad that a legend like Stuyven is not satisfied with fighting for third place and jumps out of the chasing group. Excellent to see that Biniam Girmay is regaining form, Tim Wellens demonstrating again that UAE does have another strategy for San Remo. Excellent Narváez! This is your territory. Unusual for a Latin American. INEOS should support it and fully support it for the Classics and Monuments. Pura vida🇨🇷
I don't think WVA really had a shot at a win anyway, but it might have been a bit closer without the crash. Would have been nice to see him a bit stronger after so much time at altitude, but maybe it'll take some time for him to hit a peak.

I agree it was a very good highlight. No complaints
Major credit to Van Aert for attempting to bridge and not just racing for second.
Van der Poel is really a amazing rider one of the best ever
Impressive strong win from Mathieu and also impressive strong come back from falling off from Wout. Mega cudos to both
Thank you, Eurosport, from Canada!
Great effort by WvA. Great win for MvdP.
A sign of things to come this spring classics season for MvdP! 🌈💪🔥

fuck that dude on the right flipping off mathieu at 5:24, amazing performance by van der poel
always amazing races in Belgium
Guess Not a fan. That guy needs to Go sit and watch Football.
Gingers!!!
Belgians.... colaborationists to the nazis.....
Noticed that too. A world champion comes through your region, puts on a phenomenal show riding aggressively and you flip him off? Boggles the mind.
5:24 What makes people come to watch the race on the side of the road and show the finger to a cyclist right in his face?
Some immature teen, the kind of person who writes troll comments.

They're in Belgium and MVDP is dutch...so likely most fans want to see WVA win. Agree though that it's childish and disrespectful
Its Belgium... only good for waffles and beer.
He need to be careful cos MVDP can spit like alpacas in this kind of situation😂😂😂
Amazing performance from everybody in the Top-5 🌈
If you live in that town, it must be so rad to have a huge race like this happen in your neighborhood. I'd set up some lawn chairs and a cooler hah.
What a stellar season for MVP. It has been awesome to watch his whooping attacks
MVDP is already a Legend!
The standing celebration is very cool
Yeah, that’s how you call a real world champ! 💪🏻
Congratulations 🎉 MATHIEU VAN DER POEL 🏆
Could have included the Bora guy dropping in the ditch, looked unharmed luckily 👍
They rode him off into the ditch like Hincapie.
Great highlights!
Lol WvA can crash come back, almost bridge to the lead and still finish 3rd. Dude is on form.
I'm not going to lie, but this race was stacked.
New subscriber: That was a great report !
Van der Poel in Lisan al Gaib mode!

Pura vida🇨🇷
ha ok that’s just a myth by some witches, MvdP is something different and unexpected
Love your post
Hey Lance,, no hugging at the end off this one !!!!!!!
Yeah, you're not going to see that with WVA and MVDP. That is a real rivalry.
Rob thank you ❤❤
Oier Lazkano future Canibal !!!🥇🇪🇸👍💪
Such a great race. Tough to watch van Aert crash at a decisive moment in the race. MvdP really earned the win.
I don't think WVA really had a shot at a win anyway, but it might have been a bit closer without the crash. Would have been nice to see him a bit stronger after so much time at altitude, but maybe it'll take some time for him to hit a peak.
Impressionnant
The power of job security. 10 more years!
Nothing quite like rainbow jersey winning alone!
Now, he's the hot favourite for the Ronde
ハイライトありがとうございます😊
マチューおめでとう🎉🌈🫡
Saludos de 🇲🇽 a Mateu.
Nice video! Good work
Guud highlights. Even Hatch is digestible in this one.
Mathieu gives me joy ...
Poga is a beast. He is 90/100 at everything. But Vinge is 97/100 in very high mountain. For Tour, Vinge > Poga.
Lo sport più bello del mondo
i think we could see WVA's form after he pass the whole group. right?
lets battle in RVV!!!
It’s so natural to see MVDP in rainbow
how is this even possible
Movistar with an actual rider that does well on cobbled classics!?
Siiiii maatjes
Looks like Jumbo's juice lab took a gap year in 2024 😂
fantastiche
Presently, only Pog appears to be on the level of MvDP. Pity he could not be here.
No more mullet mvdP.
As someone with a mullet, this is truely sad to see
its not playing time anymore ;)
