The French Champion did it again! Dorian honors the jersey once again. Its' not all about Seixas, there are many frogs in the pond, hungry and feisty. Well done Dorain!

Impressive. I will definitely follow him. Thanks!

How far he has come... View: https://youtu.be/K0i1Sdo_cf0?si=SStQAguvXxzYovYN

With Eddy Merckx...

Tadej Pogacar is head and shoulders above the rest, congratulations to him. Geez, five race days in '26, 1,1,1.2,1. And thank you Paul Seixas for giving it all and bring a little suspense to this bike race. Although the time gap between Teddy and Paulo is about the same as it was at Strade...

Ninja alert! Haimar comes out of retirement...

Good points...and that's why Seixas should not ride Le Tour: he's untested in three-week races, not ready. He's like a 5-0 boxing phenom, we all get crazy and want him to challenge Tyson Pogacar for the unified bag of belts. I trust Guimard on this one. Now if Seixas goes for it, of course, I...

Ramses... He will be defeated by The Deliverer, days after passover, Paul will grow a white beard like Bob Roll's and wield a stick. I voted Seixas, I believe in the scriptures...

...Pinot finished 10th and won a stage on his first TdF. Sorry, I couldn't resist. But on a serious note, the French public will want more than a 12th, 8th, or 6th for his first participation. He's already better than Pinot and Bardet, who podiumed. 2nd place would be a minimum, beating Vingo...

I see your point, but riding for the podium is no picnic either, if you can have fun doing it you might as well go for the bag. I would add that not being in contention would raise a ton of negativity among the French public, the so-called fans who wake up in June and go back to sleep in...

I Agree that FW and LBL are different, that was not my point, sorry if I used shortcuts. I want Seixas to show up in Liege with momentum, I don't expect him to beat Pog, but I want to see the gap shrink. First, Paul has to take care of business tomorrow and it's no easy feat: some high-rollers...

Meh, he gets outhustled time and time again. I'm cheering for Paul, of course, no better way to set up for LBL, facing the dragon.

Action, bike changes added to the drama, the final showdown offered suspense, will Pogacar do it? and what a beautiful winner, after all Wout's been through, I am so happy for him. 8.

Sweeeeeeeet! Well-deserved! Bravo Wout! So happy for him, classy in defeat and always coming back. Oh my did he want that one. Bravo Wout!

I guess I'll have another beer today :cool: ...sweeeeeeeet!
