What was going on with Remco's gearing yesterday? He seemed to have some mechanical issues on the climb. I didn't read anything about it in the post stage reports. Or was it just that he was too tired to shift gears properly?

Wout wasn't even riding for Visma/Jumbo in his 2016 campaign. He joined the team in 2019.

The problem is that none of the riders on their current roster seem to be able to do that, and that riders who move to Astana generally start performing worse. New signings like Ballerini and Schelling have fallen of a cliff results-wise. So even if they sign some good riders, it's far from...

A miracle needs to happen for Astana to avoid relegation. Investing in Cavendish was a decent PR move, but terrible for their World Tour prospects. They're more than 3000 UCI points away from safety. So unless they can magically sign Evenepoel or Pogačar, they will relegate. Or they'll have to...

Almost 160 km in and around Paris. With the same finishing circuit as yesterday. Who will succeed Anna Kiesenhofer? Can the Dutch women keep it together this time? Will Kopecky add another Gold to Belgium's tally? Or will Grace Brown deliver the double? Startlist...

Can't understand the locals in either city, so close enough.

I like that MvdP doesn't get rewarded for his cowardly Tour this time.

Remco solo!

Madouas is cooked.

Remco to do a historic double. Only Leontien van Moorsel was able to win time trial and road race at the same Olympics.

Feed zone really awkwardly positioned.
