    Faulkner has given Kopecky a golden lifeline. She seems the strongest of the four.

    They’re going to slow right down when it comes back together and the group behind could close. Probably too big though.

    I've seen WW1 generals with more tactical awareness than the three chasing

    Chase for gold or shall we sprint for silver and bronze? Let's do the latter!

    Again the top woman watch each other as an outsider rides away from them in an Olympic road race.

    Shame she missed the chance to get the iconic celebration photo.

    Georgi fifth. Another few hundred metres and they could have been in the race for second.

    Very tight for second, Vos from Kopecky and half a wheel between the three.

    What happened to Vollering? Seems like I cursed her with a PTP pick.

    Think so- she is clearly smiling on the close up shot. She deserved that. Kopecky did nothing useful on that final chase. The gap never closed when Kopecky was at the front- it was all Faulkner….and the moto

    Would have thought Vollering was a better hope that Weibus on that circuit.
