Remco Evenepoel wins the Amstel Gold Race, revenge served cold, one year after Skjelmose pipped him on the line. Bram and Ethan break down how Evenepoel strangled the race into submission without a single flashy attack, why Skjelmose's ability to hang on confirms last year was no fluke.
They also dig into Group 2 syndrome rearing its head again, Evenepoel's quietly lethal sprint that has now beaten Skjelmose, Van Aert and Bilbao in similar situations, and why Marco Frigo finishing tenth from the day's breakaway deserves more attention than it got.
From there, the focus shifts to Wednesday's Flèche Wallonne - wide open without Pogačar or Evenepoel. Bram and Ethan run through the contenders for the Mur de Huy, from Seixas and his frightening kick to Grégoire, Lenny Martinez, Cosnefroy and a dark horse Daniel Felipe Martinez. They also ask whether Vauquelin can back up after his Amstel crash and why Stevie Williams' continued absence is such a shame.
The episode closes with a quick look at the Tour of the Alps, where Pidcock has already finished second on the opening stage and a brutal stage five finale awaits. Giro prep, continental team upsets.
