Wasn't great. Aside from white jersey, other competitions weren't that interesting. There was, as always, suspense when it comes to yellow jersey, the potential for something to happen but there was no contest really. Last year Pogačar's domination was greater but I found that race...

That was pretty awesome. Glad for Wout. Tadej was great, too, but Wout deserved something like this.

Did not necessarily expect the last stage to be the best one, but this is very entertaining

Yes, and without that injury the difference between them would likely be smaller. But the fact remains, Vingegaard wasn't close to Pogačar's level. I am not sure that even with a perfect preparation he wins. But obviously, it isn't outside of realm of possibility. Just doesn't seem very likely...

Of course Vingegaard can win a tour at some point. He certainly has much more chance than anyone else. But they are no longer equal, Pogačar is definitely a strong favorite. We can speculate about whether one or the other had bad days or were sick or whatever, but the reality is that Pogačar...

. I believe they are saying that he has 4 and a half minutes lead? All the talk about team being bad is, idk, weird. They did what they set out to do won the race, have 5 stages. That they didn't dominate every stage and looked inferior to Visma at times does not really matter that much in the end

Why not? I mean if he doesn't feel good that is understandable, but why would that be tactical choice? He's the one with nothing in this Tour, Pogačar has 4 wins and the yellow.

This was... Kinda weird. I guess Pogačar wasn't feeling great. Probably Vingegaard didn't either, can't believe he would not even be willing to risk losing a bit of time to try to win the stage.

That, Sampdoria and HSV banners the weirdest/most random things I've seen today

Soler winning attack imminent

Sports are, in general, boring. That's why events that are good are special. This one today wasn't. It happens.

I hope Pogačar doesn't know O'Connor won and celebrates

All O'Connor needed apparently was for Netflix show to be canceled

Well this is somewhat underwhelming

Oh Matteo was allowed™ to go into the break?
