Welcome back to Latin Rouge cycling podcast for the Amstel Gold Race ladies edition 155 kilometers.

It's actually the old style finish. The like Phil Jill World Champs Cowberg finish. I quite like it,

but we'll see whether it actually induced good racing. They do repetitions, four laps or so of a

cowberg pool hemibur and Bemela Berg combination. These are short well paved climbs, unlike their

flandry and counterparts. And yeah, they are. I mean, proper roads. They're just like it's a

hilly region in the south of the Netherlands near Maastricht. If my geography serves me correctly.

We had an appetizer for a bounce on Wednesday bingey with Perseco winning the sprint against

Valorant. Did you think that would inform how SD works with race today? I think it would firstly

inform how you were he would race today. As we saw you were he having the better sprint in that

group in Brabantsepell in Silvia, Perseco beating them evolving. So maybe they would try and keep it

together today and just get Perseco to the cowberg, get her over the cowberg and try and win from

the group that forms after the cowberg. That's how I saw you a East plan going into this race. But when

it comes to SD works, I don't know because they've got multiple leaders that can get over the cowberg,

eh? And if you have that situation, then you can benefit from that after we saw it last year with

Cavalien, Utreplodwig, both being in the group after the cowberg. Was it both of them after the

cowberg? They had two riders after the cowberg, right? And then Cavalien attacked. So they benefited

from the numerical advantage they had in that in that group. And then a rider like Perseco without

teammates can't really do much against that, huh? No. And I mean, UAE and Yombo seem to have

that same strategy of just hope it's a really negative race. It all comes back together and

Vos can go for a sprint. And Perseco can win the sprint. UAE don't really have many other options.

I think it's a fine strategy if they can, you know, she's got to be good enough if she's not,

anyway, other teams like Canyon Shramp haven't won a big race, a World Tour race for a number of
