    Still a good lead, just hope his bike is OK. Shoe bust so won’t be able to sprint

    He’s got one Boa left. Man that’s cruel.
    Napoleon, don't be jealous that I've been chatting online with babes all day. Besides, we both know that I'm training to be a cage fighter.

    Last lap, 14km, 25ish secs

    I don't know, I feel MvdP has had it in the bag as soon as he had a 5s gap.

    I stick to my words. Despite the crash

    20"
    I don't see that coming back without a mech
    MvdP better through the corners, the chase three need to be full gas, not trying to secure a medal

    The benefit of cross skills in remounting. I think the lack of radios and all the corners benefited VDP as the chasers didn’t realise he’d had an incident. Gap is back where it was before he went down.

    Pog looking a bit cooked in the chase now (until he attacks and Pedersen has to fight a bit).

    Surprised at that chase group being apparently happy to fight it out for silver given their palmares

    I hope he knows what the gap is. I don’t want him to crash again

    I only turned on with about 80km left and there was hardly anyone left by that stage.

    On the finish straight, can just about see the main screen.

    I guess that disappointing Tour was actually a very good training block.
  • Looking like Pog is going to be the non-medal bridesmaid, unless his ramp digs so far weren't all in.

    He lost his constrictor and he shed his skin.

    Not sure what else you think they could do.
