2015 Dauphiné, stage 5: Digne-les-Bains > Pra-Loup 161km

[Flamin]

Good catch Eshnar. Some kms actually have a difference of 4% on these profiles

 

[Flamin]

Smart move from Serry. Good to see him back after that Giro crash.

 

[BigMac]

So, no helicopter? Certainly not because of the weather.

Am I the only one who gets this strange buzzing feeling in my body when we are getting closer and closer to the final?

Nah.

It's particularly intense if you're supporting a rider.

I'm tranquilo now. AC isn't racing.

I don't know why I'm getting it, it's a combination of nervousness and excitement.. I have to take a piss all the time. And I don't even have a particular favorite.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Alaphilippe dropped...

 

[Pricey_sky]

Alaphillipe gone.

 

[Flamin]

Alaphilippe gone.

 

[May0maniac]

Alaphilippe already dropped.

 

[BigMac]

Alaphilippe the climber.

 

[Bushman]

Alaphillippe dropped. Guess the French will still need to wait a few years to see a French TDF winner.

 

[Velolover2]

Alaphilippe already completely gone. :O Never thought I would say it, but Ryo was right.

LOL!!! I still get that feeling after following the sport for 50+ years. It is why we are fans

 

[Eyeballs Out]

Gap from 3:30 to 5:00 to sub 3:00 in about 3 kms

Who is driving the Peloton, BMC?

Re:

Yep BMC, Astana is behind them. Sky is around to.
Edit: and Garmin just came up.

 

[Flamin]

Alaphilippe already completely gone. :O Never thought I would say it, but Ryo was right.

He already had a long spring. No point trying to hang on for a minor top 10 placement or whatever. Better save legs for upcoming stages that suit him way better.

 

[Jspear]

"the helicopters had to land for a little while, but they will be coming back."

 

[Oliver]

Alaphilippe.. Not a surprise for me. Very busy schedule the last months. Classics - Romandië - Calfornië - Dauphiné... What do you want with such a young rider.

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

alaphillippe can;t handle these long climbs.

also froome, what a terrible rider lol

 

[Flamin]

SKY!!!!

 

[indianfanboy]

Sky hammering it..Froome to go full *** later

 

[qwer]

Froome always looking down
