I suspect that Tadej Pogacar (UAE Team Emirates) knew he would win today when he woke up. He had his team working all day to keep the break aways in check. They also set a pace that made it near impossible for anyone to get away from the team policing the front of the peloton. The team knew that all they had to do was deliver Pogacar in a good position at the base of the Mur de Huy and he would be able to do the rest on his own. Many tried to get a jump on him and even more tried to follow his acceleration, but when he looked over his shoulder with 50 meters left to go he knew that he could add la Fleche Wallonne to his palamares, finally.
