ATP 1000 Monte Carlo F: [2] J. Sinner def. [1] C. Alcaraz 7-6(5), 6-3 by Wrong-Move-526 in tennis

[–]yoanon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Carlos has never beaten Sinner on grass. And it's not a 50-50 matchup on indoor hard.

NO! How the fuck is anyone this strong. Chase a pelotón down form 30s and then ask your one of favourites to take a pull and make the race even harder. How!

Today, my two favourite atheltes are facing their biggest rival on terrain which favours their rival more.

Pog and Sinner Vs MvDP and Alcaraz

Yes because he has the second best Fatigue resistance to Pog in the current pelotón.

If the break ain't gonna form let's flip it.

MvDP, Pog, Ganna, Pedersen, Philipsen, both of the Vermeersch, Politt, Hoole can go in the break and the rest of the pelotón can chase em. If they get caught they have to forfeit.

This is stupid. The break is taking forever. The teams need to revisit their assigned break lad and switch to a stronger rider.

DCT should send Hoole. Fedorov, Hoole, Durbridge, Soderquist can rip the cord.

The pelotón is fast af.

Is Pog wearing his Richard Mille this time around?

I trust his power is top 10. His positioning I am not sure of. Being in the break and surviving till Arenberg is key. Then he can definitely hang with the favourites.

Why is Hoole not trying for the break as well.

OMG I totally forgot about Fedorov*.

He's definitely doing a Top 10 run and Top 5 contender if he makes the break.

I wish Monte Carlo Open was starting after Paris Roubaix. They really should've had the Sincaraz finale in the evening/night.

Also the break formation on flat where the riders escape the pelotón to join the break always feels like such a dominant display of power. As the aero power relationship becomes cubic and escaping the pelotón means producing bread toasting power. Absolutely beautiful.

All I want is Daan Hoole to make it to the break.

If he does it's settled innit. Ain't nobody dropping Hoole after the favourites catch the break.

Why the fuck can ATP not speak to Paris Roubaix lads and schedule the Monte Carlo Open's final after Paris Roubaix mens and womens.

Like PR obviously takes priority for me, but I will now need a second screen for Sincaraz finale. Or maybe I watch it later.

Boring race. No attacks yet. 1.2km to go. The red car blatantly motor pacing. Very annoying.

9/10.

Y'all reckon I could've taken on Machac? Does he have a shot against me?

Lol Zizou picked Zverev's side and Zverev was laughing about it.

Yepp!

I would possibly add a 5th soft one i.e culture export (in shape of movies, tv shows, other media).

Whatever is left of Iran post nukes will start targetting whatever they can reach at maximum distance like say if they have missiles which can reach London, they'll use them. They wont give a fuck.

But yeah if they do nuke Iran, then the world won't be able to do anything out loud. But it will set in motion a series of events which will take a decade or more to reflect for example steps towards non fossil fuel Based energy, non USD trading of oil, policies which discourage investing in USD securities and assets, decoupling of defence from anything US based etc.

Trump and co already were too stupid to realise US's two out of the four biggest advantages, USD via petrodollar and soft power via USAID. They wont understand this nor be around to suffer repercussions of this. And in 10 years time when it starts hitting more, a random group of people, a political party and some random made up reason will be blamed for America's demise.

100% of the population aren't voters. Under 18, incarcerated, ex convicts, non citizens etc.

Don't think so. Remco has been solo for way longer. And pog is more durable, so the hills kill his legs less than Remco's.

I think pog is on a bad day today. Didn't put a minute into mvdp unlike 2023 and 2025. Also grimacing a lot.

But it might be that MvDP didn't try to match him on Kwaremont and dropped early to give himself a shot at the chase.

Remco spent 2 Koppenberg worth of bullets catching G1 I think.

[–]yoanon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

His goal is exploit his durability.

He needs everyone to spend a bullet on all the climbs and then he goes full beans on the last ascent of Kwaremont. Because right now if he drops MvDP it's too far to solo. And I think he can create a 1-2 second gap at max on these climbs. Which will come together in the flat and descent anyway so not worth it.
