France. Welcome to France. This is the 10th edition of the European Championships Road Race Elite Men with Remco with Tad Bach and with Yonas Vinor. We don’t see him all that much in one day races, but today he’s on the start line for Denmark on the first row. We also find Jiao Almeida and uh maybe ready for the early breakaway just like he did in Rwanda. Julian Bernard for the French team. 95 riders only, sadly without riders from Great Britain or Ireland. We start in the town of Pas and make our way to the north where we do the first of three loops of the 34.7 km circuit and then free loops of the 17 km circuit and that totals 202 km. An early breakaway with two riders from the Netherlands, Dan Holler Matens and one from the Czech Republic. Matias Bachek quickly grew to 15 riders and at 109 km to go, an early attack by the Belgians and already the end of the line for Yonas Vingor. Yan Christristen for Switzerland, Anton Sharmmir for Denmark, Jamarcoy for Italy. today. Pagacha not far away here on the steep climb of the Valdon and that’s already the end at 92 km for Jiao Almeida as always with the golden helmet has got his biggest rival on the wheel as we make our way to some of the remaining riders of that breakaway of 15. Catch them and leave them behind on the top of the Valdon. A climb of 1.6 six kilometers almost 10% average and then we have this group at the front strength and numbers for the Belgians with Steph cross with Lu Ferfa with Tish Benot and of course Remco Even today Pagotaa the Slovenian rider has got none of his teammates up front so he decides to attack on the last time up the climb of Ser Mandelair the Mornas the super steep climb through the vineyards of the of the cornas a removable he tries to follow today Pagacha. But sadly that doesn’t take long because at 75 km to go apool already has to capitulate to the Slovenian world champion, meaning that we’re in for a long solo yet again from the world champion. It’s become a very familiar site in cycling this year. Recover he gets company from French rider Paul Sigas, Juanuso for Spain and Christian Scaroni for Italy. on his way to the finish line. He’s got three more laps to go and able Yeah, he was pretty unhappy with the lack of cooperation in that group of four and on the very steep gradients of the Valdon, he decides to leave a Sigas Auso and Scaroni behind in pursuit of Today Paga. He approaches the Slovenian up until about 58 seconds, but that is as close as he will get. We already know gold. We already know silver. So, there’s one fight left and that’s the one for bronze. And of course, all the spectators in France are behind this man, Paul Sigas. He only turned 19 a week ago, and he’s the next sensation. But the sensation of the moment, and he has been for a few years, is Bugattacha. He’s the European champion. A title that he didn’t have just yet. But sadly, we won’t see the jersey this year because he’s already world champion. Another silver medal just like last week in Rwanda. goes to Remco Even. And celebrating this bronze medal as if it were a gold one is Paul Sexas. And the French crowds, they absolutely love it. For Remco, a Paul Sexas on the podium. Scaroni Toms another fifth place there. Auso, Scalmos, Sivakov, Gopoli, and Gregoire in the top 10 today. Uh Dolman and Mate was uh they were still uh going really really really strong um to keep everything together, but then uh yeah, the third lap uh I saw there was uh four or five Belgians and uh I was uh alone from the team. So I was uh yeah uh better to be on the attack than uh together with too many guys that can attack you. So I tried and it’s succeed. You won almost everything but actually there is something you are still dreaming something uh still in your goals. Yeah, for sure. I every year I want to to be better version of myself and uh yeah, try to gain more experience uh try different races and uh yeah uh I am lucky enough to to win uh all these kind of races but uh yeah I need to enjoy until uh I can and next year the European Championships will take place in Slovenia. Yes, next year is in Slovenia and yeah, it’s a big honor to have such a big race in in home country. We are living in the age of today, but the challenges are there whether it’s Remco or new sensation full sigas, but the European champion is today. Forgot shot.

What a boring season, what a boring sport it had becomeπ
Slovenia is Cycling ELITE!
Itβs strange how Jonas becomes an average rider in some races and stages. I know heβs not good at one day races but he looks like a cat 5 rider out there
the Slovenian is doped to the gills
Tom Pidcock hanging with Tadej in the Strade Bianche earlier this season was a great ride with the benefit of hindsight
Jonas is cooked
Outstanding the Goat just gets better and better Pogi the man.
Why no Irish or GB riders?
Pogi s dominance is amazing but itβs also very very boring to watch β¦β¦ no excitement just a predictable event
No woot???
So they guy that blame it on the saddle got dropped?
I bet it was the tires this time…….he hsould've used 32s, not 28s, he didn't see that and 32s according to GCN, it'll make him faster…..lol.
Tadej and Remco say, "no anchovies, please."
Boring
Why ride in the rainbow jersey and not the jersey of your country? Bit disrespectful towards the European Championships.
Too much climb for it to swing in Remcoβs favor today.
All the Jonas fanboys in SHAMBLES
Just came to say this narrator has extraordinary name pronounciation. The dutch, the danish, the Spanian
, the Italian names pronounced as if she speakes These fluently all the while commenting in perfect english. Small detail, but thumbs up for that dedication.
Il ciclismo per chi lo guarda Γ¨ uno sport di attesa, stai lΓ¬ ad aspettare che succeda qualcosa, nel frattempo ti puoi godere il panorama oppure, nelle dirette integrali, schiacciare un pisolo…quando c'Γ¨ Pogacar nove volte su dieci non aspetti proprio niente ed anche se si Γ¨ al cospetto,probabilmente, del piΓΉ grande di sempre questo ti toglie il gusto dello spettacolo…risultati scontati fin dalla partenza tanto che puoi anche non guardare la gara…peccato.
Really nice commentary.
Haaaa jonas drope on 100k now you see he is nothing without his teamπππ tadej is legend. Remco keep training without you tadej will lose will to race
Coach of Slovenia Murn with tears in his eyes said: "These boys give a 100 precent and leave their heart on the road for Tadej"
Boring π₯±
Jonas is just too weak without his super domestic π. Bravo for remco and seixas plus another top 5 for the ultra endurant skujins.
By the way i love seeing pogi destroy ayuso ππ.
I think next time don't include the music in the beginning
Congrats again,Pogi,for another win and trophy.GOAT.
European Championships with the English and Irish riders!!!!!
Why do we have to endure this woman commentating
naaahhhhhh
His engine is OK & well hidden. same scheme of race all the times & no failure, no body pain whatsoever. the greatest scam ever, Armstrong way behind.
If Tadej doesnβt win the World Championships next year he would ride the European Championships in the European Championship Jersey. However, it would be nice to find a way to commemorate multiple titles on the race jerseys during the year.
Sorry but it is geting kind of boring
King of cycling,
The guy doesnβt even sweat π³π³π³
Bro just shut down all championship jerseys by blocking off the eu jersey for the next year.
Maybe Remco's shades were of an undesirable color today .. Or maybe his helmet was too tight .. Maybe he was wearing shoes of different sizes .. No made up excuses today .. π
Tadej the GOAT is just too good .. π
Tadej often seems to allow a chaser to get within one minute and then holds the gap there. And I wonder – if he rides all out – how big would the gap become?
Next win will be his fourth LombardΓa in a row. Will he attack in el Poggio or 100 km before? π€
75 KMs out……
Been doing this ALL year.
I DON'T think this guy is clean….
I don't believe in anything he does…..
It's disgusting that no one has their eyes open….
πͺππ¦πΊπ«€π«€π«€π€π€π€π€π€π₯΄π₯΄
finally a race with proper cycling fans. last weeks world championship in the sprotswashing rwanda was a shame.
No podium for Ayuso againβ¦BEAUTIFUL.
That's why he's the GOATTTTTT
Really wish Tadej would start doing epic wheelies across the line in races where he wins by such massive margins. would be historic.
Taddy is a champion among champions. Too great.
Is Jonas fatigued?
Damn remco got within 31 seconds what a ride for remco. Love that he is getting health he will be a force next year.
Pogacar dominance may be explained by an electric motor hidden in his bike frame, only in his road bike for some unknown reason. It would explain all. He's a very good cyclist, but with that ebike he becomes an alien.
At least Remco didn't have any bike trouble. π
Tadej: Time to destroy the Belgian team.
Well that was dumb
