2016 TdF, Stage 17: Bern → Finhaut-Emosson (185km)

[TrainTrack]

Valverde obviously had a "good" rest day.

 

[Big Doopie]

yatesy and martin still clinging on!!

 

[Billopoulos]

Kreuziger dropped, no Top10 for Tinkoff either.

Froome in control, no one is pushing him at all today.

Re:

Huge classy riders and multiple GT/classic winners can’t drop a couple of domestiques.
Where are we going?

To be fair the dom in question is a monument winner.

 

[Ruby United]

Our only chance of action now might be if Nieve or Poels attack Froome... or atleast each other

Re:

Froome looks cooked.

Like he did on Ventoux? Froome rides his own pace, even if that means leaving some gaps. And he's always looking at his SRM.

Unless someone takes a good 50m on him, without him having team mates to rely on, I don't see any reason to believe it's not just part of the plan.

Dan... da man!

 

[sir fly]

Chapeau Dan!

 

[ILovecycling]

WOW Martin!

 

[hfer07]

I won't be surprised if Froome dumped them all with one swift attack to wrap this Tour

 

[SeriousSam]

I think people will still be expressing "omg froome cooked" in a few years when he is on the verge of winnnig his 7th tour

 

[perico]

Froome could be dropped if one of the contenders actually went full gas.

 

[rick james]

Aru and Quintana talking

 

[Pantani Attacks]

Dan Martin doing his best Barguil impression

 

[sir fly]

Quintana needs to try.

 

[Ruby United]

A rider in the top 10 is more than 20 metres head of the peleton!!!??

 

[Forever The Best]

Still 2 bots with Froome.

 

[ILovecycling]

Poels can drop them all LMAO

 

[Cannibal72]

Nice one, Bala!

 

[TrainTrack]

Aru and Quintana are a joke. FFS, if you've got enough energy to talk, you're not riding hard enough.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Valverde cooked
