    Lotto Soudal giving it the extra effort to help Sagan put one over QS?

    I’d really love it if Wallays or Dillier mugged Sagan

    He didn't even lose any ground to the other two. He could ride one handed whilst tightening bolts and still stay on their wheel.

    Maybe its the vibration of the cobbles causing the bolts to work loose ?
    Annoying happens to my bottle cage all the time.But on the UK road surface not Paris-Roubaix LOL

    That would be quite funny to see his face.

    Anyone think they’re going to catch Sagan?

    Does his bike have the dampening thing? Maybe he can adjust the tension that way?!

    This. But would prefer Sagan over QS. Or, as my predictive text would have it; Satan

    I'd rather not see Sagan ride away with it from 60 or 70km or whatever it was. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz

    He’s gone, they won’t catch him now unless he has a mechanical or crash

    They’ve just let him ride away

    Even Terpstra not making any impact on the time gap.

    If Sagan does win then he'll owe Dillier a few drinks

    Was Sagan sandbagging early season?

    Only issue should be Sagan over working and losing the sprint to Dillier. Looks like he will drop him before the velodrome though

    No, he just couldn't get past QS. He went long today, it was pretty much his only chance. Chapeau to him, however it ends.
