Belgian peoples are the most bizarre in western Europe. Best grand tour rider in the world should sacrifice himself to lead out this Pozzato level rider in this big objective?

He had one decades ago and never recovered.

Lafay may be inconsistent, but the leap Laporte took when he left Cofidis for a competent team really makes me wonder what his ceiling is. Could definitely see him winning something like Flèche.

Here I am wondering what big race week Jumbo has barely bothered with the last 2 years....
But seriously I don't know what money Lafay is on but basically anyone should be in for him.
Lafay also seems full of self confidence atm… Talking after the finish about Vingegaard, who, according to Lafay, apparently lacked some power on the final climb…
Sounded a bit strange. But Lafay is a strong climber, a man for bigger teams maybe in the future.

Choose the Worldfeed and you won't
I remain a huge fan of Phil Liggett. He is the voice of summer for me. Yes, he's missing some things, but so am I.

My posting history will tell you that he's a bit of a star in our household , since the Yorkshire Grand depart. We follow him closely. So good to see him mixing it with the favourites today.

Lafay? Or do you mean someone else? What does he have to do with the Yorkshire Grand Départ when he was just a junior then?

Good to see Carlos Rodriguez up there. And Bernal looked good. That's a really joy taking into account his devastating accident.
Good finish by Pogacar. He stood up and yanked a bit. Not buying his wrist issues at this point.
Crazy stage really.

Well, you're missing 40% of the race watching commercials. But to each their own
. You can always replay Phil when it's over just to hear his voice .

just confusing it with Tour of Yorkshire, I think, where he was on the attack in one of the stages

Actually, there aren't that many commercials on Peacock, but ANY commercial seems wrong because we pay for the service.
Who are the announcers on the World Tour feed? I like Ned Boulting ok (esp. his podcast), but it's not always easy listening for long periods of time to Carleton Kirby.

Oh I couldn't handle Kirby either. Its McCrossan and Nico Roche. McCrossan akes some getting used to but now I like him and Roche is a gem.

I usually find myself agreeing with your analysis. Not here though. You're extrapolating a hell of a lot on the basis of one stage. A stage with a climb, but a tiny one. Tough, but nothing compared to what's yet to come.
Like someone already said: a great team is fine and all that, but on mountains like Puy the Dome it's gonna be mano a mano. And whatever happened today has no bearing whatsoever on what's gonna go down in the real mountains.
