75th Tour de Romandie (2.UWT) // 27th of April - 2nd of May 2021

[HelloDolly]

Nicolas Roche also talked about how he was trying to lose weight as directed by teams and it was counter productive for most of his career...he lost power as had not enough nutrition

New generation definitely befitting from the science
But it has ever been thus

 

[jarvo]

So this is a Dennis preview for the Giro


Wait for the interview when he says " I am the work horse " and doesnt sound overly happy about it

I am pretty sure he's been quoted as being unhappy with the dieting side of things to lose the Kg's to be a GC leader. I think he is happy with the Ineos salary and allowed to target TTs

 

[RedheadDane]

Oh... I hear Rob Hatch double-checked the startlist to see who actually wears number 122.



(And Patrick Bevin's face.)

 

[MartinGT]

Tee Jay, man I thought that dude had retired!

 

[Taxus4a]

I cant see the race, but acording the track of the official website Froome is on the bunch close to the top...Can someone tell me if is true?

 

[Escarabajo]

Dennis relegated to dom.....

Ineos showing UAE how is done!!!!

 

[BlueRoads]

They're saying Colbrelli is still there?!

 

[JosefK]

Looks like a training-ride stage. No nukes today.

Looks like a training-ride stage. No nukes today.

And froome still got dropped

Why?

I think it was a very tough stage, they are just trying to still save some for the next stages.

He got dropped when Dennis put his foot down

In the middle of the grupetto!

Still sprinters left up front. Can't be too hard.

Ok, I imagine that...no possible 100 riders pass this climb, haha. When Dennis did that, close to the top?

 

[RedheadDane]

Who's left, other than Colbrelli?

 

[Lequack]

Diego Ulissi should have this in the bag.

About 2/3km from top

According to Hatch before the stage today he said 'he wanted to carry the jersey to the end' of this race. But as soon as the going got rough he was put to domming

 

[Escarabajo]

Ineos are so happy they had the last version of Robot (T-800 model). The flesh and hair looks real.

 

[Taxus4a]

About 2/3km from top

Thank you.....
Now is posible some attacks, not just sprint

 

[shalgo]

Who's left, other than Colbrelli?

Cort seems to be the only other rider I would call a sprinter.

EDIT: I guess you could also include Bevin.

 

[JosefK]

There must be 40 riders still up front. Okay, maybe 30.

 

[Eyeballs Out]

Who's left, other than Colbrelli?

Bevin

 

[Carols]

Dennis is a Monster!

 

[RedheadDane]

Sonny Boy!
