2015 Tour de France Stage 7: Livarot - Fougeres, 190.5 km

[Miburo]

Was a jury decision to not allow the yellow jersey today but i bet british media will ignore that lol

 

[Jagartrott]

Probably calm stage
--> mass crash in sprint finish likely

 

[willbick]

you have to ask the question at what point does cycling in its current form become untenable as a sport? its closer to demolition derby than anything else now. at this rate the GC winner will be the only man standing in paris with his collarbone in one piece

 

[Baldinger]

It's all about keeping your captain safe these days, but people need to relax. It's only bike racing. When I see the big teams riding in perfect formation at the front of the peloton, I kind of miss the "old" days. But then again, the first week of the Tour was pretty boring back then.... you can't have everything.

So the real question here is


Federer-Djokovic or Murray-Djokovic?

Gasquet-Murray of course

As long as Murray gets the trophy Harder mission for Garbine though.

I'm rooting so hard for Garbine. Anything better then Williams winning it.

Katusha will finally avoid the crashes and Kristoff will win by a bikelength.

 

[wirral]

Contador crashes but he is up and on his way again. All the big names have crashed except Froome. It is clearly his year.

 

[Alexandre B.]

Gesink fell too.

Wonder if Lotto will keep it together for the intermediate sprint? 66km in, surely they won't let the break go.

 

[SkyTears]

For the love of god stop the crashes , all should arrive safe and unharmed to stage 10 and onwards

 

[Arredondo]

Gesink had survived all the crashes the first week, and then he falls in the neutral zone

 

[Eagle]

Crashes in the neutralised section

 

[sky2500]

Mountain jersey in break, is contador ok?.

 

[Eclipse]

All these amateur bike handlers. Should be asking Froome for some pointers on how to stay upright =p

 

[Eagle]

5 man break Kristjian Durasek (Lampre-Merida), Luis Angel Maté (Cofidis), Anthony Delaplace and Brice Feillu (Bretagne-Séché Environnement) and Daniel Teklehaimanot (MTN)

*** those guys who were so amazed that Gesink didn't crashed yet.They jinxed him I hope him and Contador are ok.

 

[sir fly]

A couple of local guys in the break.
This might stick longer than expected.
What's Durasek searching there? KOM points?

Maybe Lampre has finally switched into their suc6-mode: Attacking & stage hunting!

Hardly the one for Kristijan today.
Sponsor's request, maybe.

 

[sir fly]

Aaaahhh, I get it...
He's there so the media in his home country shouldn't begin sport reports tonight with Djokovic.

I don't like inconsistency. In the past they have forced people to wear yellow. Now its ok not to. FFS, make a rule and stick with it ASO.

That said, no yellow jersey is imo better than having the person who was in 2nd at the end of the stage wear it.

Can you give me an example of when the yellow jersey DNS and the next in GC wore yellow?

Hint: It never happened...

There isn't any inconsistency.
