Loving the drone shots

[@YTOnlineReviews]

Love to see

[@ZENmud]

Not when they're so close to the riders that they become distracted 😮 Should stay at least 20 meters behind.

[@Klont123]

Especially in the women’s tour they came waaaay too close. It looked to almost crash into Shirin.

[@christophedebruyne1236]

Its not a drone😉 Its a camera on a line drones are not allowed at the moment

[@liamgaul]

@@christophedebruyne1236 it's 100% a drone. You can hear the blades and in other shots, you can see it meandering in and out of trees. Also, where's the line/cable? It comes down from quite a height, you'd be able to see the cable ahead of and below it.

[@9090Glenn]

the grand tours are great but the classics have such an appeal and allure unique unto themselves - i was present for one of boonen's victories back in the day - eating farm frites - drinking beer and standing at the road side cheering the riders on as the climbed one of the bergs - the roadside belgium fans are great - so enthusiastic and supportive of their riders - its truly an obsession with them and when one of their own wins its only that much better - you know it is spring when the classic arrive - always sad to see them end but always thrilled to see them come again - you can almost discuss your life by the names of the riders who won during it - the boonen era - the cancellara era - the sagan era - on and on it goes - no we have mvdp - he is so great in these conditions due to his cyclocross efforts - beggars why more pro teams do not force their riders to do the same during the off season his results speak volumes and the field would tighten up if more did the same - chapeau but he really won on the kemmelberg and the rest was academic - that was a cyclocross win if ever i saw one

[@richardbrough1239]

Bergs, frites beer, you wouldn't happen to be American? Surprised you didn't also culturally appropriate chocolate as well.😅

Anyone noticed that a 20 year old "kid" entered 5Th? António Morgado is a name to keep on the radar.

[@jackal6234]

20 year old that look like already on his 40's hahaha

[@TheVanpuffelen2]

Dont forget pithie just 21

[@earlfoss99]

I rode down the Kemmelberg on a rainy December day two years ago. It was STRESSFUL.

[@fhowland]

Love to see drone shots coming to cycling, finally! Awesome!

[@Nangoncrazy]

MVDP gotta have one hell of a contract with Canyon. The amount of times he steers the focus on his bike in recent weeks is crazy 😂 money talks!

[@maxt1617]

I'm sure they're both benefiting very nicely indeed! And perhaps the peace of mind/ lack of worry for MVDP lets him just focus on training.

[@simonknowles4267]

I think he signed a 10 year deal a few weeks ago.

[@Big_Island_Boi]

Without sponsors there would be no "pro" cycling... so it's a win/win. I personally don't think pro-cyclists get paid enough for the amount of training and pain and suffering they do.

[@fhowland]

If only Canyon could stop their bikes from cracking

[@Big_Island_Boi]

@@fhowland Alleged cracks don't seem to be stopping MvdP.

[@marcorigon8027]

Most Valuable Dutch Player

[@mauijttewaal]

Verstappen is nice too;)

[@gonzadelga]

Grande MVDP grande! Este estilo de ataques desde lejos le dan una emoción diferente al ciclismo! Chapeau!

[@keepingstephen]

Thank you for not ruining it in the title like some others did

[@christhomas2644]

When the cobbles became wet and muddy it wasn't going to be anyone else on the top step

[@evanshaw17]

I bet he had on the best tires of any rider for the day! Being a cyclo cross champion doesn’t hurt

[@Richardwhite02]

MVDP is king! Watching all but three riders get off and walk up the cobbles was wild! Unfortunate for Bling

[@skoromoh_]

Monstrous win by MVDP🎉🎉 . 31324

[@ianstephens905]

Well done MVDP, Massive Congratulations to Nils pollit in 3rd. What a ride, I knew he would do a ride, hats off Nils.

[@RobGrenzendicht]

The best in these days. Only champion !

[@jaecheokkim99]

sad for mattews.. but he should follow straight line.. and what an amazing victory for MVDP!! let's go 4 times win flanders!

[@z.kramer6027]

it was the end of 300km of racing i don't think it was voluntary swaying by matthews

[@justridingalongthewatchtower]

​@@z.kramer6027voluntary or not, it's still a deviation... rules don't change based on how tired riders are. I was cheering for him, and was so disappointed to see him swerving all over the place, knowing he was screwing himself over.

[@Klont123]

@@z.kramer6027come on lol, that’s just nonsense, he knew exactly where he was going, they always do.

[@andyjakeschvlog]

That came surprising to me. I mean, he basically just kept the same line that Jasper Philipsen usually takes ... and Philipsen never gets relegated?

[@MrElias1998]

Ye like what the fuck was that deviation from left to the edge of right what a dumass haha

[@JetLagRecords]

Eurosport Cycling, Yay! I liked this video so much, it made me smile!

[@evanshaw17]

He has incredible skills, incredible strengths, incredible endurance, and incredible strategy. He is the greatest of all time of this generation. His father wasn’t so bad either.

[@권용대-b5v]

Win after win! MVDP seems to be the rider born to wear the rainbow jersey.

[@mannycalavera6011]

Youngest riders to finish top-10 in a monument since 1945. 1 ZANAZZI Valeriano 19y + 249d 1946 2 WOUTERS Joseph 20y + 39d 1962 3 MORGADO António 20y + 63d 2024 4 ALBANI Giorgio 20y + 130d 1949 5 ROSIERS Roger 20y + 156d 1967

[@leonardoreissantiago9581]

The Race was over when there were 44 Km reamaining and MVDP took the lead. I am from Brazil, and we have a expression for situations like these: "Já era!"

[@Bultish]

nice, love the commentary

[@richiejames928]

with that much of a lead he should of wheelied over the line, the crowd would of gone wild for that!

[@everythingexplored5233]

Paris roubaix will be more interesting by far the most unpredictable race on the calendar because no climbs to separate riders and huge puncture and crash potential so even the stronger riders need a day of good luck

[@WillPower46]

It’s about time Mathew’s was relegated. He always starts in the middle and finishes at the barriers, was getting sick of seeing his dirty sprinting.

[@simonknowles4267]

Pure tiredness was the reason for his wayward sprint. Nothing dirty about it.

[@bvanderford]

I had a lot of respect for the group following MVP. I can understand exhaustion literally blinding the riders from their path forward

[@Catharsis791]

Pogi and Vdp number one

[@willylfc3179]

MVDP is the king 👑 of cobbles no doubt 😅😂

[@derekmacfarlane4927]

Drone shots are weird. Too fast,like speeded up clips from the eighties.😅

[@guilhermemauricio4858]

Monster!

Highlights need to be longer. Thanks

MVP! ❤❤❤❤

[@brickstotrips]

MVDP is goat

[@YTOnlineReviews]

Goat?

[@artursaksjonenko8415]

@@YTOnlineReviews probably greatest of all time (still Eddy first)

[@ButaneBear]

The track used to cover the map is amazing. Does anyone know what it is

[@Nojikuzus]

Maybe MvpD should try a different sport and give the rest a chance! Golf? = )

[@willylfc3179]

😂😅 he is just too strong for everyone I think 😅

[@RickQuemado]

he did get benched in futbol as a teen before switching to cycling

[@AlejandroIPena]

Gracias MVDP por existir! Thank you for existing!!!!

[@tituslup]

Great race ... would have been better with Van Aert, Stuyven ... Rob Hatch :p

[@YTOnlineReviews]

Amazing

[@danielsmith7856]

If only Wout Van Art was ok

[@sofarsogut]

what a pity (that crush)

[@vityaz11]

MVDP might still have won but the race would have been way more interesting, for sure.

[@alecsaunders123]

I've been listening to Carlton Kirby for years and have heard him make countless 'plays on words' / puns. Not one has made me laugh and most do not even make sense. Please can Eurosport find a better commentator. It is surely putting people off their coverage and therefore cycling as a whole. It is also a shame to see the highlights narrated in the past tense. It removes any sense of excitement. Why not use the present tense or the commentary from the live feed?

[@gerryfrancis3350]

He is my new Peter Sagan

[@86WTH]

Beast

[@masterpep7218]

Such hushed mention of the fact that Matthews brought his un-sportive self again. Not the first time. This behaviour should be penalized not just by shifting ranks but money penalties, especially in weather like this.

[@LaRhdevu]

Nils Politt was 3th not 4th, right? Because in results he is listed at 4th...

[@GdF420]

Matthews got DQed

[@catosal0659]

MVDP is the real king of Ronde

[@williambarboza5816]

Hola. Resumen en Español ?

[@jpvdw1961]

Next time he'll hoist his steed will be PrB

[@birdseed45]

Love the highlights of the race, MVDP what a beast. But I gave the video a dislike because of the poor quality of the commentary. No analysis, very little information, just bizarre twisted metaphors and strange rhetoric questions.

[@scotth5132]

Yes, the words are poetic but totally lacking information.

[@Cycleplayer117]

Congrats MVDP! After the cobbles on the koppenberg, the competition absolutely vanished 😅

[@YTOnlineReviews]

Is it possible to

[@docpewpew]

Canyon sales going up 😅

[@rikkshow]

With hundred meters left to sprint everyone sprints 100m, but Michael Matthews, he sprints 150m... They need to relegate him until he learns to sprint straight. That dude...😮

[@presterJohn528]

MVP-VIP!!!!!!!!

[@olke85]

MOAR

[@englishteacherdon]

Something is awry. I remember the good ole days when bike racing required tactics right up till the final 5km. We didn't use to have all these extra-terrestrials floating around. You should never be able to ride away from large groups of pros on the flats. This should only happen in a junior race.

[@colw07]

Cavendish takes Matthews line in the sprint and no one says shit. sucks for Matthews

[@GdF420]

I'm no expert, but looking at the replay a few times it is unclear to me what Matthews did wrong

[@ventura9000]

​@@GdF420 rewatch in slow motion from 5:47 all the way to the finish line. He clearly rejected at least 2 riders space and cut their line.

[@Mulder04]

Schnellster Stundendurchschnitt mit 47,8 km/h...deutlich schneller als Ballan, Museeuw, Aldag, Pollentier, Boonen, Zabel...🤔🤔🤔

[@BreakawayB]

A vulgar display of power. 🤯

[@skoromoh_]

Matheuis made mistake..ugh.. not podium 😢 . 31324

[@vivekrbs]

pity wout could not take part

[@Paul-g4e5i]

such dominance does not make for great watching to be honest. races become a forgone conclusion with the commentators endlessly and expectantly gushing about the top favourites.

[@jgogl9791]

"van der Poooool" Pronounced like swimming pooooool. Please?

[@Themultihullfreaks]

Yea more drone shots

[@123oner2]

Ridiculous deviation at the end

[@francismello5364]

[@rrosomasa]

this commentator is the WORST! so many filler phrases without providing real info, statistics and insights.

[@RickQuemado]

anticlimactic for me, it was MVDP's race to lose from the beginning and he did what was expected

[@Minifliek]

Still hard to do if everyone expects it and does everything they can to stop you from doing said thing.

[@RickQuemado]

@@Minifliek oh definitely, but it still looked like a cakewalk with how far MVDP was ahead of everyone. There was never any worry for him it felt like.

[@Minifliek]

@@RickQuemado I mostly blame Pedersen for that, blew himself up staying 15 seconds ahead with no help. MvdP still had to dig deep to win.

[@christianjensen5523]

Can you at least give to commentator some coffee or something....please? zzzz
