He surely doesn’t have a roommate, a room only for himself.

BTW anyone knows why Mou was banned?

After what I saw from Evenepoel yesterday i'm all in into his fan club!! Love it, what a ******* legend!! Chapeau Evenepoel, chapeau!

The point is that it's simply unfair to have some teams doing their time trial with direct sunlight and others doing it in almost pitch black conditions! I think it's a no brainer!! Every team should have the possibility to do their time trial with the same light conditions! That would be easily...

Spot on by Evenepoel!! 100% with his views on this. It was ridiculous!

TY. Didn´t knew that there was such a rule for the TTT

Far from a spectacle, just finished watching the stage and I couldn't even see the course with the last teams. Broadcast also sucked...

Saw a brief resume of the stage and i'm confused to say the least... Can someone tell me what the hell happened? Saw some teams crossing the finish line with sunlight but also saw Movistar, UAE and Quickstep crossing the finish line at almost pitch-black conditions! How on earth could this be...

You're the man. ;)

Well that was precisely the context (iTT) in which Almeida compared the materials used nowadays in cycling to Formula1 tecnology and he is right spot on that

It was in a daily sports Portuguese newspaper "OJogo" and what he said was in the context of the iTT!

He just said that he will be at TDF with GC ambitions with or without Pogacar in the team and that Pogacar´s domestiques will be enough without him helping. Everyone knows, he knows it too, that if needed he will have to put aside his ambitions to help Pogacar. Nothing outrageous if you ask me...

Yes to be treated with antibiotics it was a bacteria infection. Yes it will be nice to see him at TDF but if needed at some point of the race surely Almeida will have to sacrifice his GC ambitions to work for Pogacar.

That's fair what he said in my book. Before stage 17 he was 3rd at GC behind Carapaz by 44 seconds and Hindley by 40. Then at stage 17 he lost 1 minute and 10 seconds to them, a stage where he was already sick with covid and not generating the watts that he was capable of (according to Matxim)...

We never know when we will have the next big rider, there are some looming every season with the potential to be the next "Evenepoel/Pogacar" (Ayuso, Arensman, Uijtdebroeks, Carlos Rodriguez...) That's obvious that he still lacks that final punch and those extra watts/Kg that riders like...
