Philippe Gilbert had pencilled in September 23rd 2012 as the day he would win the rainbow stripes. When the parcours for the 2012 worlds was announced, Gilbert was installed as the favourite. 2009 and 2010 had been close with Gilbert in contention until the final kilometres in both those races. 2011 was the flat track that had Mark Cavendish pencilled in as the favourite just as Gilbert was for 2012.
After the stellar 2011 season the Belgian had a big move to BMC has been rather underwhelming until September. Since he turned pro in 2003 with FDJ, Gilbert had won at least a race in every season he had raced. 2012 was looking like it might be year to write off until Stage 9 of the Vuelta de España. On the roads into Barcelona Gilbert was in the company of the race leader Joaquim Rodriguez whose form suggested that the stage win was his. Gilbert launched his sprint and took the win, a very elated looking Gilbert had finally won his first race for BMC. Gilbert added Stage 19 to his palmares, letting the peloton know he was back to his best. After the Vuelta and the stage wins Gilbert was again the favourite for the worlds title, it would be his race to lose.
Backing up after the majestic year that Gilbert had was always going to prove difficult. A clean sweep of the Ardennes for a second successive proved highly evasive. Gilbert didn’t race Liège–Bastogne–Liège finished 6th at the Amstel Gold Race and finished 3rd at Flèche Wallonne. The weight of expectation to not only duplicate his results from the previous season but to do so with a new team proved too much to bear. The Tour failed to provide the highlights of 2011 as well with BMC looking like they had come of second best in their recruitment of Gilbert and Thor Hushovd. The late surge of form by Gilbert has been the crowning achievement of BMC’s season whose season highlight looked to be the Giro d’Italia stage wins and Young Riders Classification win by Tejay Van Garderen.
BMC must be the envy of the peloton. On its books for season 2012 were the World Champions from 2008 (Alessandro Ballan), 2009 (Cadel Evans) and 2010 (Thor Hushovd). With 2011 World Champion Mark Cavendish looking for a new team could BMC be looking to add a fifth former World Champion to its ranks? BMC certainly is attracting the rainbow stripes and with the young Americas Taylor Phinney and Tejay Van Garderen impressing In the ITT, BMC may soon have road race and ITT world champions in abundance. Neither Ballan nor Hushovd wore the rainbow jersey with BMC but Australian Cadel Evans wore his from the Tour Down Under till September. Gilbert’s rainbow stripes will most likely look quite similar to the kit that Evans wore as the team aesthetics has remained largely unchanged. With Gilbert’s capture of the rainbow, he shares the achievement to have worn both rainbow jersey and the yellow jersey with Evans and Hushovd.
The length of the road race had lead some to suggest that it only a rider from one of the bigger nations would be taking home the rainbow. Edvald Boasson Hagen was riding for the small Norwegian team but managed to nick second place after Gilbert left the peloton scrambling for the minor placings following his attack on the final ascent of the Cauberg. Spain had been a major protagonist throughout the race, wanting a sprint finish for Óscar Freire to take home his fourth world title. However infighting split the Spaniards who were largely disappointing. They finished with just the one medal, bronze, after an opportunistic Alejandro Valverde tried to go with Gilbert and formed a select group with Boasson Hagen and the Russian Alexandr Kolobnev. The chasing group of three would be fighting it out for two medals as Gilbert was powering ahead maintaining a lead of around 10 seconds. He may have had enough time to grab a flag from one of the many Belgian flags on his way to line as Marianne Vos had done In the Women's Race. However Gilbert didn’t look he wanted to give into chance, he had only eyes for line. He slowed in the final 100 meters to celebrate, looking back at the advancing chase group and threw his arms in the air, giving his hands a kiss and double punching the air again.
On the run into the final climb the select group still contained at least four riders for the Belgians, Germans, Italian, Spanish and Australians. Besides these big nations were several Americans, Dutch and French with Boasson Hagen, Kolobnev and Peter Sagan the biggest single man threats. Alberto Contador was clearly looking drained after his Vuelta victory but his attempts to break up the peloton meant he wouldn’t be a factor on the final climb. Headwinds between the Bemelerberg Hill and the Cauberg meant an attack would eventuate on the day’s final climb. Sitting mid pack coming up the Cauberg was the shark of the strait, Vincenzo Nibali who made the first attack. Behind him the favourites begun to scramble, trying to match the Italian before blasting past. Gilbert was sitting a few meters behind Nibali with a Belgian teammate between him and the leader on the road. Gilbert looked around and launched, he caught his rivals out and quickly built a lead as the riders behind struggled to comprehend the furious pace Gilbert was able to ride away with from nothing. Once he launched he never looked like being caught even with 1.7kms after cresting the summit.
Alejandro Valverde has become somewhat of a bridesmaid at the World Championships. Along with the bronze he won yesterday, Valverde also picked up bronze in 2006 to go with the two silver medals from 2003 and 2005. Kolobnev had also finished runner up twice, in 2007 and 2009 and it looked like both riders might have been fighting it out for a third silver medal. Kolobnev was riding for himself but that wasn’t enough it appeared as he faded to finish mid pack in the chase group. The three time World Champion winner Óscar Freire expressed anger at Valverde for riding off rather than delivering the Katusha rider to the line for what would have been his fourth title. Along with the Spanish, the Germans also helped contribute to Gilbert’s win. Both Spain and Germany were setting it up for a sprint, a scenario that could have also benefitted Alan Davis from Australia. However Gilbert proved far too strong yet the fight continues over who was really the strongest rider in the peloton.
Gilbert proved to be a worthy winner of the rainbow stripes and is surely a deserved winner who no one can begrudge. Mark Cavendish honoured the jersey by riding on the front for 100kms after he told reporters there was no chance of him winning the race. He pulled out but has shown he was highly respectful to the World Champion’s jersey and the significance of the rainbow in cycling’s history. Gilbert looks like being just as graceful in the rainbow and has the chance to show it off late in the season. Possibly even at Paris-Tour or the Giro di Lombardia. Gilbert has won both of these races in the past and could emulate Paolo Bettini in 2006 when he won the Giro di Lombardi wearing the rainbow stripes.
