The strongest rider apparently needed a sticky bottle, had two and not three bike changes, and let's forget that Van Aert rode 15 km alone in the front and another 25 km as the leading force in the front group, but otherwise you're right, yes.

Without Ganna, they would've stayed ahead. Mighty work there, for who exactly?

If you know another person is there for the stage win, make him ride for it. Moreover, MVDP is a rider that contributes. Del Toro rolled out the red carpet, even though he was probably the one with the strongest legs. No, that wasn't smart riding.

Del Toro doesn't seem like the sharpest tool in the shed.

Few people know that Eddy Merckx invented the internet, finally finding the time for it after retiring from cycling.

You're new to cycling, I take it. In an attrition race, everyone dies slowly - some more slowly than others. Evenepoel cannot allow to the other 4 to set the pace, as several of them are clearly nearly cooked.

Don't bother. There are clearly several people here who thrive on negative emotions.

So, is it known what exactly his physical issue was? I'm very curious what could cause a sudden drop in performance consistently at such a young age, and apparently also remained so mysterious for so long.

He now won a stage in 3 consecutive GTs (Vuelta 2024, Giro & Tour 2025). I guess that makes him part of a pretty select club.

He's a proper racer, treating the sport with great respect by have a go at basically every race there is. A big thank you, Tadej.

How salty can you be. Pogacar raced full, Van Aert raced full. There was no Gerrans here.

Mwah

Jegat deserves his top-10. He went in breaks consistently and did his share of the work. I also like it that today, he let all the shouting from some of the riders in the breakaway slide right off him. Why wouldn't he have the right to be there? Jayco of course very underwhelming. Only one...

If everybody raced like that, cycling would be long dead. There were possibilities both yesterday and the day before to at least try and put a dent in Pogacar's invincibility armor. Yesterday was too late for GC, but Vingegaard could've gone out fighting. Now, he looked terrible for most...

Perhaps there's a bathroom renovation coming up, so Jonas had better be prepared for that!
