Chrisull Apr 2023 3:00pm, 9 Apr 2023 20,052 posts	0 Chrisull Was gonna say MVDP burning all his matches here, WVA looks cool.
SPR Apr 2023 3:07pm, 9 Apr 2023 40,118 posts	0 SPR I suppose Philipsen should be favourite for a sprint so if MVDP is racing to get away and others have to chase, that should help even more for a sprint. MVDP just tried to go again, also hit a motor. WVA just covering still. I wonder if he does one big attack on Carrefour or waits for the sprint.

Nellers Apr 2023 3:11pm, 9 Apr 2023 40,523 posts	0 Nellers Isn't MvdP a better sprinter than WVA anyway?
Nellers Apr 2023 3:11pm, 9 Apr 2023 40,524 posts	0 Nellers Or is that too simplistic a view in a race like this?
SPR Apr 2023 3:14pm, 9 Apr 2023 40,121 posts	0 SPR No, they have different strengths. MVDP better with acceleration from slow speed, WVA better on a longer sprints or from high speed. I wouldn't want to call it. WVA won E3 in a sprint as the weakest of the three riders that were in the sprint (MVDP and Pogacar).
Nellers Apr 2023 3:19pm, 9 Apr 2023 40,525 posts	0 Nellers Philipsen luckily held off having his flat until the cars had been allowed into the gap!
SPR Apr 2023 3:20pm, 9 Apr 2023 40,122 posts	0 SPR Yep, that could have been a disaster earlier, especially with the effort MVDP has put in already.
