2019 年 Men’s UCI WorldTour 的第 18 場賽事 - Ardennes classics 三部曲之一 : Amstel Gold Race

2019 年 Men’s UCI WorldTour 的第 18 場賽事 - Ardennes classics 三部曲之一 :

2019 Amstel Gold Race


※ 進入正題之前,先來談一談 "Ardennes classics" :

Ardennes classics (之一) (之二) 是指每年四月中下旬在比利時阿登地區 (Ardennes)

以及荷蘭最南端的林堡省 (Limburg) ,

於8天內 (the Ardennes week) 所舉行的一系列三場"丘陵古典賽"

("hill classics",有別於四月中旬剛結束的一系列 Cobbled Classics ),

由於它們的地形特性,特別適合於兼具有 PuncherClimber 這兩項特質的車手。

這三場比賽依照舉行時間的先後順序分別是:

1. Amstel Gold Race (2019 Amstel Gold Race / 54th edition → 04.21)

2. La Flèche Wallonne (2019 La Flèche Wallonne / 83rd edition → 04.24)

3. Liège-Bastogne-Liège (2019 Liège-Bastogne-Liège / 105th edition → 04.28)
(今年 "The Five Monuments" 的第四場)


--- 至今為止,能夠在同一年橫掃這三項賽事第一名的只有二人:

Davide Rebellin (2004年);

以及剛贏得 2019 Paris-Roubaix 桂冠的 Philippe Gilbert (2011年)。
Philippe Gilbert 在2011年四月中先贏得另一場 hill classic - Brabantse Pijl (Europe Tour / 1.HC),當年他算是創造了 the "quadruple" (連贏四場重要的 hill classic) 的難得紀錄。 】

--- 其他能夠在不同年度獲得這三項賽事第一名的則有四人:

Eddy Merckx

Bernard Hinault

Michele Bartoli

Danilo Di Luca

2019 Amstel Gold Race


● Profile :

【 One of the hardest one-day races on the planet, Amstel Gold is one for the strongmen of the sport.
The whole day is spent on narrow roads and with no rest between the climbs, it’s an elimination race, which is why it suits the strongmen.
Individually, the climbs aren’t overly difficult, but once you build in the fatigue factor, you start to understand why this is so hard.

Amstel Gold Race 2019 Preview - Time for the next phase of the season to begin
(2019.04.20 / ciclismointernacional)


--- Weather : Sunny and warm.


--- Tactics (Soon to be renamed the Astana section!)

The new title gives away my thinking.
Astana have dominated stage races this season, taking GC wins in Colombia, Catalunya, Itzulia, Valenciana, Provence, Murcia, Andalucía and Oman.
They made the bold decision to keep a very strong group of riders together for many races, a decision that now looks like genius.
They come here with almost the same squad that dominated in the Basque Country : Ion Izagirre, Gorka Izagirre, Luis León Sánchez, Jakob Fuglsang, Alexey Lutsenko, Omar Fraile and Laurens De Vreese. The Belgian is the only change, he comes in to replace Pello Bilbao. This squad is dripping with power, something that will concern the other teams.

Don’t look for Astana controlling the early stages of the race, this isn’t their responsibility.
They’ll come to the front inside the final 100km and blow the race to pieces.
In my opinion, they have the strongest squad in the race, they will use this to their advantage.
Think back to last season, one of the reasons Valgren won was the fact that Astana had two men in the front group, the only team with multiple representation.
They are stronger this year, I expect 2 or 3 Astana men to make the front group. If/when this happens, it’s game over for the other teams.
