The RTBF guy has an interesting contraction for Ethan Vernon. Le jeune Ethron.

Believe it or not, exactly the weather and landscape I like.

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Break of the day is actually putting in a good effort. Gap hasn't dropped that much at all.

 

[Didinho]

Quickstep ready to up the pace. Cavagna alone can close this gap.

Edit: they're still waiting, no changes in te last 5km

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Ineos not really confident in Hayter? Haven't done any work lately.

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Gap finally coming down, 11k to go, 1m5s.

 

[Didinho]

Remco behind the team cars?

 

[Bonimenier]

The puncheur Evenepoel

 

[houtdffan]

Easiest win in Evenepoel's career

 

[Valv.Piti]

lol

 

[wheresmybrakes]

Just watched a stage that was more boring than the Giro. Can't believe I've just watched that.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Remco surprises the cameras

Explosive Remco!

 

[F_Cance]

THJ really throwing away an easy win here

 

[yaco]

Johansen was impressive, except for misjudging the finish - This was a bonus stage win for Remco.

 

[Carrick-On-Seine]

Remco behind the team cars?

He just said he stopped for a piss!! He also said he was feeling the cold and having to piss all day.

 

[Bonimenier]

He just said he stopped for a piss!! He also said he was feeling the cold and having to piss all day.

Pissing himself would have fixed both issues at once

Same nonsensical assumption like in 2020 Algarve (back then it was Schachmann) that had the upcoming rider started his jump sooner, he would have won. Likely he would have died earlier, there is a reason those guys like to wait as long as possible, because they can not sustain that effort for longer. Just like in Algarve, Evenepoel in control, looking back and accelerating when needed.

 

[Big Doopie]

Remco stayed seated until the very end while others

yeah, but it was obvious that neither Shachmann nor Johansen were really trying.

Definitely looked like Johannesen could have challenged had he been better positioned. I noticed he was poorly positioned for the whole last kilometer so could just be because his legs were hurting though.
