Re:

And Kirby is basically crying in joy and sadness that Alaphillipe got 5th

To be honest Alaphillipe was probably the strongest today.

Re:

I guess everyone was right, Majka sucks at sprinting...

Between climbers he would probably win, but Pantano contests reduced field sprints regularly and places very well

Pantano from the break. He hasn't done anything all Tour.

Teej really blew it today, another bad day in the mountains.

Posted an hour ago!!! Great job Jarlinson!!!

Pantano riding like he owns the stage, bravo!

 

[GuyIncognito]

Shame Pantano's older brother never made it to a european team. We could make so many Pantani puns

Re:

Majka played that perfectly tactically until about 300m to go; then inexplicably started his sprint too early. You can't go early against a stronger sprinter.

You cant go late either. There was no way he was winning that sprint, he should have gambled and refused to work if he wanted to win

Zubeldia just doubled his entire career's screen time.

What a ride by Pantano, caught Allephelipe descending on the Gran Columbier and just a solid performance

:redface: :redface: Quintana deserves nothing from this years tdf, not even a stage win...Gutless again!!

So, another dull high mountain stage from the GC. Poels easily pulling in numerous attacks from Aru, Bardet and Valverde. Froome so comfortable that he can fake attacks and laugh at other riders for trying to distance him on the flat.

The chasers were closing the gap seriously, so he panicked... Pantano was extremely calmed.

I hope you won at least 1000€

btw I think Pantano's contract is all right

Quintana gains time on TJ Van Garten, a great victory for Nario.

 

[huge]

Great great ride for Quintana. This guy is simply amazing. Attacking. Attacking. Attacking. Bravo!

He's not gutless, he just doesn't have the power. They sent Valverde on a 'test attack' to see if there were any signs of weakness from Froome or the Sky train, but they looked as strong as ever. Pointless Quintana attacking in that situation; he'd just have ended up losing more time like on Ventoux.

 

[Bushman]

Re:

The only one who deserved win today is Alaphilippe.

Of course Pantano or even Majka had deserved then win as well. Just because Alaphillippe crashed and fought hard afterwards doesnt mean he is the only one deserving the victory

Re:

Either conservative to the point of outright cowardice, or in remarkably bad form for a rider whose season depends on this race.

 

[saganftw]

for all idiots complaining about lack of GC action : if a domestique is doing 350+ watts at the front you cannot attack from that

just so you know why the tour is boring

Anyone else have USPS flashbacks?
