(2.Ncup) Tour de l'Avenir - 18/08 - 27/08

[Samamba]

As expected, Bernal just demolishing the rest.

 

[DNP-Old]

He has over 30 seconds on the peloton already, on a rather weak climb.

Can I watch this live somewhere?

No, tomorrow and Sunday there'll be live images.

 

[DNP-Old]

Bernal has a minute.

 

[Valv.Piti]

What the *** is happening, is he just destroying the field on this easy stage?

 

[DNP-Old]

Étape 7 - Top 5 :
1- Egan Arley BERNAL GOMEZ (Colombie)
2- James KNOX (Grande-Bretagne) +0'59"
3- Bjorg LAMBRECHT (Belgique) +1'08"
4- Lucas HAMILTON (Australie) +1'08"
5- Niklas EG (Danemark) +1'08"

 

[Samamba]

That last climb wasn't as easy as you guys are saying though.

2. Knox
3. Lambrecht

Dissapointing performance from the Australiens and Sivakiv ofc (but he's probably sick).

 

[Vasilis]

And yet another Colombian will win this race.

 

[DNP-Old]

So Bernal just killed the entire race on basically it's first day in probably the easiest mountain stage.

 

[portugal11]

Bernal will go to sky right? Cycling is dead

 

[DNP-Old]

 

[DNP-Old]

Sivakov at 6:43.

 

[carton]

Surely it was not a piece of cake, but he looks to have finished the stage with a literal piece of cake in his pocket.

 

[Valv.Piti]

He should just demolish the field the next few days as well, just because he can!

 

[Forever The Best]

He just smashed them. A minute in Les Saisies in a ____/ type of stage.
Also what happened to Sivakov, that he lost almost 7 minutes? Is he ill? Or did he just had a hunger knock or sth?

 

[DNP-Old]

Sivakov: ''Worst day of the season happened today. No excuses. Will try to find out the reason and keep working.''

 

[Red Rick]

What a waste of time racing here.

Re:

I know right, Androni has such a beautiful program this time of year.

 

[May0maniac]

Bernal really killed the race today, Sivakov lost a huge amount of time, Carboni also over 5min.
Bernal has a strong team around him Sosa is his teammate at Androni and from what I've seen he's friends with Dani Martinez.

 

[Escarabajo]

It is not bad to be cautious!
Hope he doesn't lose this one.

Never, Lambrecht thinks he's gonna win with a 5' advantage :lol:

How's he in echelons? :Question:

 

[DNP-Old]

Unfortunately, Bernal has no interest whatsoever in winning all the three mountain stages, as he gives priority to GC. Of course, he won't say no to another victory, but it's not a goal of his. Therefore I'd say there is a big chance of the break staying away the next two days (unless the Australians still think they're still in this), as long as there aren't any dangerous riders up the road.

Any live pictures/replay for this stage and the followings?
