It's difficult comparing them. Cancellara is the man to make a small gap and then go for it solo with maybe another 15km to go, the time trial specialist that he is. It was impressive how he got the double of Flanders and Roubaix in 2010. But Gilbert prefers an arrival on the top of a climb (or close to the top) like in Liege or the Amstel Gold Race, he just awaits his chance like a true predator, then he says KABOOM and the race is over, the acceleration he has is just spectacular.
@karldiesen No, I think he doesn't know it himself, the belgian press says he doesn't follow a specific schedule. He doesn't train on heart rate, watt-profile,.. all on the feeling. He said in an interview he doesn't know it by heart himself, so probably only the Lotto-team will know it for sure.
@Gautran7 Overall yes.. it's sad that the general public thinks that great rider=great climber... but that is because they only watch tour de france...
Corridore eroico, corsa eroica. Peccato per quelle baniere sul finale, vabbè lasciando perdere quei feticci, onore al vallone, la magia del ciclismo contemporaneo, VIVA PHILIPPE!
Vero ciclismo...ciclismo en bianco-nero...grande Gilbert ...veramente un grande campione...e bravissimo per questo incredibile anno per la squadra de Gianni Savio.....la piu grande d´Italia.....
Great race! Would have liked Gilbert to have won the world champs. Thank you so much world cycling channel for posting all these vids, it is awesome to see coverage I cant usually get.
Is Tom Steels one of the commentators?

Great race, great Gilbert.
One of the best riders in the classical one-day-races.
I expect a view impressive victories in 2011, 2012, 2013...

Wasn't Scarponi associated with the Operation Puerto in 2006 and suspended shortly thereafter?

@davd1986 Yes, he confessed and cooperated. As a result he only got 1 year instead of 2.
