    How is Ganna been beat by GC man Pogacar in a rain soaked city centre?

  • Pog just went quicker than Ganna. Christ almighty.

    That's some ride by Pogacar. Thomas apparently didn't take his gilet off before starting and had the worst of the weather.

    CK arrives on commentary, time to rejoice

    Here we are in Denmark the cheese is Danish blue there's many teams in blue but only one is going to be get the bacon and if you are going to have a garden make it the Tivoli gardens. Pogacars ride is a bit unbelievable but this is the city of the mermaid so it's all a bit unbelievable ...( Keep in this going for 3350 km)

    Pog sets out his stall early with a good effort, WVA nicely dealing with conditions too, Ganna seemed to overcook a few bends.

    This is perfect for pog, I guess. Faster than his competition, but doesn't have to sit on that chair for a couple of hours.
