    I reckon this is the most underrated Classic, delivers good racing more often than not. I thought Kwiato's experience was going to pay off there but he left it too long and let the pace drop too much.

    Kwiato won it with his bike throw.
    Ineos have had a tremendous last couple of weeks.

    Ineos earned that to be fair. Put the pressure on to break it up and were the only team to get two riders in the lead group. Pidcock played a great role behind although I think he could have paid the price for a moment of inattention towards the end had MvdP been on peak form.

    Hopeless by local TV........Too slow to show the photo finish, then announce the wrong rider....

    Surprised by Benoot's late attack as he looked to be struggling most in that group until then

    I think Cosnefoy downed his pint slightly quicker that Kwiato

    I hope they don't take the downing a pint win off Cosnefroy in a photo too. Quite impressive by both of them there

    What, for winning?

    Not sure what else he did wrong.
