01:44Carapaz, Jan Christian is there
01:46They're all kind of lining up
01:48Nobody attacking for the moment
01:49Ciccone last year's winner sitting in about 8th to 10th place
01:53Well, this is it
01:55We've only got 700 metres to go to the top of this climb
01:57Then the long descent back down to San Sebastian
01:59Don't tell me we're going to get some kind of reduced bunch sprint here
02:03At this rate, the way we're looking at it, I don't know
02:05That is Carlos Rodriguez
02:07Hadn't even mentioned in the Spaniard
02:09Just getting dropped from the front group
02:10Former Spanish champion, of course
02:12Maxime Van Hills looks around
02:13He might even get to contest this finish at this stage
02:16If it carries on like this
02:17We've got one more steep ramp to come
02:19On the Murugil as well
02:21They'll be over the top and starting the descent
02:22Now somebody has to do something here, Brian
02:24Surely Carapaz
02:25If Carapaz is to do anything and he's got the form
02:27He really needs to use the next ramp to go, surely
02:30Well, it should be in my book
02:32Ebony Paul goes for this one
02:34And just as I say it, he starts to accelerate
02:37I'm not too sure he'll get rid of Carapaz
02:40You've got Barry in the left-hand side for Visma
02:42Bentula is up there as well
02:44Jorgensen just starting to fade a little bit
02:47But there's a strong effort here from the double Olympic champion
02:51But he's not getting rid of Carapaz
02:54Yeah, I'm not sure he's gone full just yet though
02:57But then you never can tell with Remco
02:58He's so cool and calm looking on the bike
03:00He has to look around, you're right
03:01Carapaz is weaving almost in time
03:03With the double Olympic champion
03:05Of course Carapaz himself a former Olympic road race champion
03:08He's in the pink there for EF Education
03:10It's Louis Barre who's already been on the attack today
03:13Himself for Visma Lisa bike
03:15He's got a good form as well
03:17And there's a gap between these three
03:19And Ben Tulit who leads the chase behind
03:21Visma Lisa bike, I need to be careful here
03:23They don't snuff out their own fire
03:24Because Tulit is in the middle
03:26And by the looks of it
03:27At the moment, Barre is gone
03:28I did think at some point it might start to hurt
03:31And we've got Richard Carapaz
03:33Remco Evnipol at the front
03:35And now starting to open up the gap
03:38Yeah, the problem we've got now is
03:41Remco Evnipol
03:42He's already made a big effort today
03:44After that change of bike
03:46He came back
03:47And, you know, he's been on the front
03:49Kind of bringing it all back together
03:51So he must be feeling a little bit tired from that
03:54Yeah, for those of you who weren't with us for the whole of our live coverage today
03:57Remco Evnipol with a bike change
03:58Long chase to get back in
04:00Finding it a bit frustrating in between the cars to get back as well
04:03In the end he got back on
04:04On the air lights
04:05When his own teammate Giulio Pellizzari
04:07Got dropped back
04:08Just to give him that last bit of pace
04:10Then he had to work his way through all those drop goops
04:12To get back to the front
04:13Now we see him not just at the front
04:15But off the front
04:16With the King of the Mountains winner
04:19Richard Carapaz with him
04:20So we've got here second
04:22From the Tour de France
04:23And the King of the Mountains winner
04:25So form from the Tour
04:26Absolutely crucial
04:27And definitely paying off after six days
04:29Since we finished in Paris
04:33I just think looking at Remco
04:34He's just sitting down
04:35And he's playing peddling away
04:36Carapaz out his saddle a little bit more
04:38I've just got that feeling
04:39That if Remco Evnipol's got anything left
04:43A big acceleration over the top of the climb
04:45He could possibly get rid of Carapaz
04:48Who's just concentrating
04:49On the former World Champions back wheel
04:52Carapaz needs to do something Brian
04:54Doesn't he
04:54Because there is
04:55I don't ever see Carapaz beating Remco in a sprint
04:58Back down in San Sabato
05:00And I just can't see it
05:00Remco is so quick
05:01Once he gets the jump as well
05:03Surely Carapaz
05:04If he can
05:05He needs to try
05:06It's not easy though
05:07In amongst all these Basque fans here
05:08Because there's just literally
05:09One channel through the middle
05:11Yeah I don't think he's got it
05:13I think he's at his limit now
05:14And I think Remco is riding this super strong
05:17It would have been interesting to see
05:19If he didn't have that chase
05:20But great crowds here
05:22At the top of this final climb
05:23This photographer is in the way anyway
05:25If there was going to be any acceleration
05:27But I think for Remco
05:29Evnipol now
05:30I think the effort of before
05:32Because if he wants to get rid of Carapaz
05:35He could have done it on this part of the climb
05:37Because I really do think that Carapaz is on his limit
05:40My goodness me
05:41What a place to be
05:42It's nice to see there is a little bit of elastic
05:44String holding back some of the fans here
05:46The vast majority of them Basque fans of course
05:49But they know they're cycling so well in this part of the world
05:51And this is an iconic Basque race
05:53It's Remco Evnipol over the top of the Murgill first
05:56Carapaz follows
05:58What can he do
05:58Can he do anything
06:00Or are we going to see a two-up sprint between these two
06:04Either way
06:05It's going to be hard
06:06Incredibly hard
06:07For Richard Carapaz to win from here
06:09We watch the others who are still chasing
06:10That looks like Mathis Rondel
06:12Who has got one of the Visma Lisa bike riders
06:14I think it's Ben Tulip there still with him
06:18Carapaz now doing a turn Brian
06:20What does he do
06:218km to go
06:23Long descent
06:24Then when he hit the bottom of the descent
06:25It's a 3km flat
06:26How on earth do you win this if you're Richard Carapaz?
06:29Well I've seen stranger
06:30Things happen in the past
06:32Richard Carapaz has got a bit of a kick
06:35Remco Evnipol will
06:37He didn't really need a kick
06:38In his first few years as a rider
06:41Because he used to win everything alone
06:44And I think I can remember him in Denmark
06:47When he won his first group sprints
06:50But I really do think that
06:52Carapaz is riding purely because
06:54He's in a chance of at least winning or getting second
06:57But last year's winner
06:58Talking about it
06:59Ciccone is trying to come across here
07:00Another rider
07:02That in the mix
07:03After 220km
07:05On a very difficult circuit
07:07Around here in San Sebastian
07:09You know you wouldn't put it past
07:11Any of these guys
07:13You know winning the sprints
07:14Carapaz as I said
07:15He's got a good kick
07:17Ciccone's got a good kick on him
07:18But I think it's going to come down to
07:20What you've got left in the legs
07:21And definitely for me
07:22Remco Evnipol looks as if
07:24He's in more control than the others
07:26Oh Brian
07:27This is a fascinating battle
07:29I'd much rather see this
07:30Than the way that Remco Evnipol
07:32Has won the other 3 editions
07:33That he's won
07:34He might not even win today at all
07:35For goodness knows
07:36He might not even be on the podium
07:37At this rate
07:38Let's see what happens
07:38Because last year's winner
07:39Ciccone is trying to get across
07:40To these two
07:41Is there a point
07:42Where Richard Carapaz
07:43Shakes his head
07:44When Remco Evnipol
07:45Does the elbow flick
07:46What do you think about that Brian
07:47If he just starts to sit on
07:49I don't know what an excuse would be
07:50No he won't
07:51You would think
07:51If he wanted to try
07:53And win this
07:54His chance would be
07:55To do less
07:57Or even do
07:58You know
07:59Nothing
07:59But the fact is
08:01Ciccone is just
08:02He's drifting now
08:0312 seconds
08:04And he knows this
08:06This is
08:07You know
08:07Is it Barre
08:08That's coming across here as well
08:10He's had a tremendous ride today
08:12Amazing
08:13I have to add
08:13But
08:14He's going to be an asset
08:15To Ciccone here
08:17I know that Ben Turlett
08:18Is just behind as well
08:19With Rondell
08:20They have to consider
08:21What they do
08:22But with 6km to go
08:24All you can do
08:24All you can do
08:25Is go flat out here
08:27This is
08:28Feo Bilbao
08:29If I'm not mistaken
08:30Yes it is
08:31In his final edition
08:32Of the San Sebastian Classic
08:34The Basque rider
08:35For Bahrain Victoria
08:36Certainly his last season
08:37As a pro
08:39I suspect there will be
08:40Plenty of people
08:41Feeling like he could go
08:42Another season
08:42The 36 year old
08:43But he's chosen this year
08:44To be his last
08:45Very very popular rider
08:46Bilbao
08:46Not least here
08:49Watch out for him
08:49In the upcoming
08:50Volta de Burgos as well
08:51But I'm sure he'll be
08:52Trying things
08:53He's still in a very good
08:53Position today too
08:54This is the front of the race
08:55Three time winner
08:56Remco Evnipol
08:57With the Tour de France
08:58King of the mountains
08:59Richard Carapaz
09:03Got to be careful
09:06We have seen a few
09:07We have seen crashes
09:08On this descent
09:09In the past
09:10In the recent past
09:11As well
09:11The last few years
09:13Now Remco Evnipol
09:14Will know it well
09:16There's never
09:17I don't think he's ever
09:18Actually Brian
09:18If I think back through
09:19Them his three victories
09:20I think he's been solo
09:21By this point
09:21Every single time
09:22In them
09:23New scenario
09:24He's second
09:26In the
09:27You know
09:29The history of the winners
09:30La Jareta has won it
09:31Three times of course
09:32But La Jareta
09:33Also finished second
09:35For Remco
09:37He's won
09:38Every edition
09:39That he's ridden
09:42Yeah
09:43I'm just trying to spot
09:44Who the Group Armour
09:45FDG rider is in there
09:46I think it might be
09:46Remy Rochas
09:47Sitting third or fourth
09:48In the back
09:49I think he's the only
09:49Group Armour rider there
09:50But
09:51I've got someone there
09:52Will that group be involved
09:53In the podium
09:54At all
09:55I don't think so
09:55At this stage
10:00Got about
10:001300 metres to go
10:02Of the descent
10:03And we are getting back
10:04Into the urban environment
10:05Of San Sebastian
10:07Itself
10:07There is opportunity
10:08In that urban environment
10:10For
10:12Tactical attacking moments
10:13Should it come to it
10:14Between these two
10:14Brian
10:15Because we've got
10:15A fair few roundabouts
10:16A couple of bends
10:17And that sort of thing
10:17And they always offer
10:18A little opportunity
10:19For a rider to back off
10:20Rush a gap
10:21Something like that
10:22Between these two
10:23If it's to stay
10:23It's just two
10:26I think it's going to
10:27Come down to a two-ups
10:28I think Carapaz
10:30Would take his chance
10:32Trying to force
10:34Renko Evnipo
10:35To do a little bit more
10:35Which he is doing
10:36These two
10:37Well
10:38I don't think
10:39They're coming back
10:39Now
10:39Ciccone got close
10:41He got to within
10:42Maybe about eight seconds
10:44Over the top of the climb
10:45Just couldn't go with them
10:46When they went
10:47So the two strongest riders
10:48Are in front
10:49And you know
10:50They're both riding
10:51Because they know
10:52They don't want to
10:52Leave anything by chance
10:54But
10:55You know
10:55I don't think
10:56There's a lot of difference
10:57In
10:59Both of these riders
11:00Come the finish
11:01And you know
11:02By the looks of things
11:03That they're riding to either
11:04You know
11:05They're going to finish
11:05First and second anyway
11:06So
11:07I think now
11:08Carapaz
11:09Has to
11:10Use his nose
11:11A little bit
11:13Force
11:13Evnipo
11:14To kind of lead this one out
11:16But
11:16You know
11:17Carapaz
11:17He does have a good finish
11:20Final 3k
11:21Of this
11:2246th edition
11:23Of the Donostia
11:23San Sebastian
11:24Classico
11:25A return to the men's
11:26World Tour action
11:27Post Tour de France
11:28And back in with the
11:29One day races
11:29The last one we saw
11:31Of course
11:31Was the Copenhagen
11:32Sprint one
11:33By Jasper Philipsen
11:34This is a very
11:34Very different race
11:35Always tough
11:36And attritional
11:37Always designed
11:38To spill out
11:39The best of the
11:39Resilient climbers
11:41At the very end
11:41Of this race
11:42And it's done exactly
11:43That today as well
11:44With Richard Carapaz
11:45And Remco Evnipol
11:46At the front of the race
11:47A former Olympic
11:49Road race champion
11:50In Richard Carapaz
11:50And the current one
11:51In Remco Evnipol
11:52Now onto the flat
11:53Tucking down
11:54Getting as aero as possible
11:56They're going to come down to
11:57As Brian has said
11:58By the looks of it
11:58A sprint between these two
12:00It is fascinating to see
12:01Richard Carapaz
12:02Does a
12:03Medium to long-ish turn
12:04Has a look round
12:05Remco has a look round too
12:06There's a sense at the moment
12:08That I'm not seeing
12:08That either of them
12:09Are thinking the other
12:10Is going to attack them
12:11At this point
12:12And here are the chasers
12:14They're going to get
12:14A company too
12:15Ben Tulit is getting
12:16Back up to his own
12:17Teammate
12:17Louis Barre
12:18And Matisse Rondel
12:20Who's had a fantastic ride today
12:21Is also closing in
12:22There's the defending champion
12:23Giulio Ciacconi
12:24With the one on his back
12:25The Lidltrek
12:26Italian rider
12:27By the looks of it though
12:28Is not going to get on
12:30With the leading two
12:31And at some point
12:32Brian
12:32These four will start thinking
12:33About third place
12:35Well they have to
12:36And they have to do it now
12:37Because
12:38There's only
12:3811 seconds
12:40Between
12:41That group
12:41And the group behind
12:43So
12:43It's not all over
12:44For the group behind
12:45To finish in third place
12:46Because there's only
12:47Ten seconds between them
12:48Inside the last
12:491,500 metres
12:50Here
12:50But
12:51This is going to be
12:52A really interesting
12:52Final here
12:53And Carapaz
12:54Well if he wants to win
12:55I think he has to force
12:57Ebony Paul
12:58But I just think
12:59Ebony Paul
13:00Was already shown today
13:01And he may be
13:02A little bit
13:03Judied from his
13:04Efforts
13:05But I just think
13:06Ebony Paul
13:07Looks a little bit
13:07Stronger here
13:08Yeah
13:09This is pure
13:10Tour de France form
13:11Coming to the streets
13:12Of San Sebastian
13:13In front of a massive
13:14Proul for this
13:1546th edition
13:16At the moment
13:17Richard Carapaz
13:18Happy to keep
13:19Adding to this
13:20The two of them
13:21Both want to stay away
13:22From that chasing group
13:23Because it's a messy
13:23Larger one now
13:24Where there could be
13:25All sorts of attacks
13:25That come from it
13:26So at the moment
13:27They are still taking turns
13:28To make sure they get
13:29To the finish line
13:30Ready to contest
13:31This win
13:31If Remco Ebony Paul
13:33Wins
13:33He'll be the outright
13:34Only rider
13:35To have ever won
13:36This race
13:37On four occasions
13:37He holds the record
13:38Already at the moment
13:40Of course
13:40With Marino Larietta
13:42Who was the first
13:43Ever winner of this race
13:44Can he go
13:45Four wins
13:46And be the outright
13:47Best in this race
13:49Let's see
13:50At the moment
13:51There's Carapaz
13:52Who sits on
13:52And he's going to stay there
13:53Now
13:54That was the flick
13:54Of the elbow
13:55From Remco Ebony Paul
13:56Carapaz not coming through
13:57The gap by the looks
13:58Of it enough
13:58Around about 20-25 seconds
14:00Between these two
14:01And the chase
14:01And they might well
14:03Milt every one of those
14:0425 seconds
14:05By the looks of it
14:06Brian
14:36Yeah I think the group
14:36Fakes the outright record
14:38The outright record
14:39Fourth win for Remco Ebony Paul
14:40At the Classica
14:41San Sebastian
14:43He's done it the hard way
14:44To do
14:44Having chased
14:45To get back on
14:46But in the end
14:47He was the best
14:49Come the finish line
14:50This is the sprint
14:50As well for third
14:51An important one too
14:52Giulia Ciccone
14:53Having won last year
14:54He goes now
14:55Up alongside him
14:56Ben Tulit is challenging
14:57In a very tired looking group
14:59Who are going for third place
15:00But they're spread wide
15:01At the moment
15:02Tulit looking good
15:02Down the middle
15:03Ciccone's not got it
15:05And might be Ben Tulit
15:07In the middle
