Summary

Spencer Martin and co-host Andrew Vontz break down Sunday’s Tour of Flanders, which will pit the sport’s top stars, like Mathieu van der Poel, Wout van Aert, and Remco Evenepoel, against the seemingly unbeatable Tadej Pogačar on the cobbled Flandrien roads of Belgium. They discuss Evenepoel’s late entrance, which was handled in an extremely bizarre way by the Red Bull comms teams, what it means for both him and the race, whether anyone has a chance of beating Pogačar, and what goes into developing a rider as unbeatable as the World Champion.
