That was last year Roglic has a good chance this year Also this is the Tour, you never know. Something might happen to Pogacar

I don't think there is a TTT in this year's Tour de France If there was one surely they'd bring Dennis? (They might bring him anyway, have him pull on the flats and hills and maybe before the final climb on the mountains)

It seems like Quick-Step's leadout wasn't as strong as it had been in previous stages and Cavendish just didn't have the legs. If Cavendish was feeling it he would have moved up early and opened up a bike length in the last 200 meters. No #35 but 4 stages and the Points Classification is a...

It's obvious that there is motor doping going on and some teams are better at it than others. We watch the sport for entertainment and cheating is part of the sport (and the entertainment). It's one thing if people wish to exercise a suspension of disbelief in order to enjoy the show but quite...

I have Asgreen for the stage, does it have a chance?

Cavendish was absolutely a merit selection once Bennett got hurt, his Tour of Turkey form alone would have made him worth gambling on Politics is important but his legs did most of the talking

Quick-Step lead out is good but let's not confuse it with HTC-Columbia Time and time again we've seen Alpecin-Fenix and Team DSM make a late push and disrupt the train Cavendish has 4, Philipsen and Bol have combined for 0. Bol doesn't even have a top 5 I don't know what else there is to say

Ballerini and Morkov went full gas since they needed a backup plan in case Cavendish didn't have it You can't let someone win in a sprint unlike in a mountain stage. You let up for 10 meters and 5 riders will pass you

Morkov did not sit up or let Cavendish win Sometimes you have to give the man credit

Let's see if we see a Pereiro here I mean, it has a chance, get some random person who is 15-30 minutes behind in a small break and play chicken Otherwise, I think we see mayhem in the final kilometers and Cav doesn't win

If you pair a mediocre sprinter with strong team support you get Cees Bol. Cavendish has 3 wins. Cees Bol has 0. I think you can figure out the rest.

Surely Cav can't win this one

As great as Cavendish is, it's certainly not criminal to suggest that Cipollini and Petacchi had comparable career accomplishments. He's earned every stage win though. I think he makes the time cut tomorrow and we'll see what happens after that. I think the break takes at least one of the...

What's Cavendish's salary now? I think the sponsors and Quickstep will be writing some huge bonus checks If he wins a couple more stages it could be 5M Euros or more in bonuses

If it was all about team strength and leadouts Cees Bol would have won at least 1 stage
