  • How did MVDP hypnotise WVA to stall his sprint until, being better on shorter sprints, it was sufficiently brief for him to win?

  • Spent 500-200m to go looking behind him into WVA’s eyes and blowing kisses.

    If WVA had jumped first and early, then MVDP would have got on his wheel and got some draft. Looks like MVDP was tactically slightly off the barriers while in front to close off WVA ability to surprise him down the centre of the road, only giving him the option of either staying on his wheel, or sprinting along the barrier, which MVDP could react to easier.

    Proper drag sprint though, they both jumped at the same time.

    Awesome end to a great race.

  • MVDP explained after the race that his sprint is best kept short and from a low speed, whereas WVA prefers a longer stretch to get to top speed. So he slowed down and waited, did his thing and won on the line.
