Congrats to Impey! He was very very strong. And also trusted a lot in his sprint the way he was leading the last 1.5 km.
A story of égalité on Friday, fraternité yesterday and liberté today.
Congrats to Impey. Excellent ride and a big result for him.
South Africa has a nice number of victories at the Tour.
Bennot lost his finishing ability developing in climbing strong all-rounder.
Nice Sunday afternoon watching.

Especially when that dufus keeps dom'ing for Impey.
No need trusting in your sprint when you're facing Benoot. You can trust in Benoot's sprint :lol:Sestriere said:

Benoot ever had finishing ability?sir fly said:
Re: Re:
Didn't he make top fives in Dauphiné bunch sprints a few years ago?

Re:
Tomorrow looks somewhat interesting if a big break goes again, that will be hard to control.
Cant expect them to go all out like yesterday everyday. I hoped we would have a break conistent of one or two who could threaten the jersey a bit, but cant have it all.Danskebjerge said:

Re: Re:
Yes, I think he had back then when we thought he'd be more of a cobbled classic rider than the all-rounder he's now.Logic-is-your-friend said:
Re: Re:
As a neopro he was pretty fast but even that Benoot wouldn't have been close to beating Impey. Just unlucky that the one guy that can follow him is a half sprinter like Impey.

Re: Re:
He finished 20th in the TDF 2 years ago. He finished 12th in the Dauphiné that year. He was climbing very good in TDS 3 or 4 years ago (his first year) was 17th in GC when he had to give up. He has won one race in his pro carreer, last year. He was never a finisher.
Benoot always was an allroundersir fly said:

Re: Re:
Excuse me for being wrong. Just got confused by his early pro years and the time it took him to profile himself to the level of pro victory.Logic-is-your-friend said:Benoot always was an allroundersir fly said:

Re: Re:
I see that he was fourth in Paris-Tours in 2015 and first of a lot of riders at same time. It seems like it was a sprint he won there.

I think so many of you key board warriors are very had on Benoot ...he is a rider who can win on tough terrain
Today's finish was not hard enough
Once Impey got back on there was only one winner ...and that would have been the same for all the top 10 on GC
Get a grip will ye
