    Oscar Friere, as good as he is, has never
    shown that he can win Flanders.

    Freire can climb as well as, say Moncassin, who came close to winning
    Flanders. Moncassin lost out not because of a lack of power on the
    climbs, but tactical errors, which Freire is less likely to make.

    Tactical errors?? What mistake did he make? He's the sprinter,
    Ballerini and Sörensen have to attack. And so they did. He was able
    to get Ballerini back, but not Sorensen. Which is quite logical after
    suffering 260km.

    Yes, but I think he underestimated Sorenson, who'd been on the attack
    a lot. No shame in that -- Sorenson is the master of bluff. But
    Freire is more observant that Moncassin.

    I forgot though that Freire has a saddle sore, so he might not be at
    this best this weekend.
