Another great stage design by ASO
Whatever, will the sprinters survive the climb? Most likely imo
God no. Enough with the uphill sprints.the sceptic said:would have been pretty good if it was 12km shorter

that's the pyreneesThe Hitch said:Ideally, Movi throw Nairito or Rui into breaks on the climbs forcing field to narrow down and then Valverde wins sprint![]()
That result would put Kristoff in yellow? If I understand it's the positions on the stages which will be deciding as long as they have same time. Kristoff would have 2+3=5.Steady said:Top 10 for me: Wild guess

This basically. I doubt most sprinters will be dropped. The first mountains won't be ridden full speed and that last hill is just a small bump. We have seen Cavendish hang on at much tougher terrain.hrotha said:It's only 1 km. Most sprinters will only need to start the climb near the front and they'll be fine. I'd be surprised if Cavendish was dropped out of contention.
They can show time differences for several groups, they have done so in the past.Finn84 said:If Kittel gets dropped how will the graphics work? As they usually show just a difference from front of the race to yellow jersey.
This of course, assuming the situation is
Breakaway
Peloton
Dropped riders incl. Kittel
Probably gonna end up something like this in my opinion too. Though, I think Eddy Boss will be there, along with Geraint Thomas if he hasnt been banged up too much. Dont think Kristoff will be there, although that man just keep impressing me.Steady said:Top 10 for me: Wild guess
