Critérium du Dauphiné 2022, June 5 - 12

[DJ Sprtsch]

Ha ha, Van Aert. He's angry.

 

[Riek s]

I think the wind is a bit more favourable now. Most are quick in the first and last part, which both mainly head from south to north

hard to believe since Ganna pushed the highest speed in the 1st part.
Seems the 2nd part got a lot harder though. So maybe the 1st/3rd are easier but the 2nd part is harder?

Vingo to be Jumbo's best GC bet for the TDF. I love Roglic, my favorite rider the past 4 years. But injuries and time have taken their toll. -- Would love for Roglic to make me look like a fool. ... Of course, that's a low bar anyway.

 

[broppo]

wow roglic should be a domestique for van Aert, Jumbo has to switch up their tour strategy completely!

 

[sir fly]

Van Aert eyeing a 54kph total average.

 

[Samamba]

So Ridley or Factor... Who has the worst TT bike?

 

[Tim Cahill]

Van Aert cracked, really gunning for that co-leadership position in the WCRR this year!

You realise he's beating Vingegaard currently despite not being close to his best right?

 

[houtdffan]

Well, they probably want to keep Van Aert on the team. He is a quite good cyclist you know. And he probably wants freedom in the Tour or go somewhere else.

Then go someplace where he can be the team leader and not detract from his team leader

If Van Aert were as good of a cyclist as Rog, then he could have a team all for him

don't know for sure either, but Cattaneo for example lost 8s to Ganna in pt1, 28s in pt 2 and 3s in pt 3, and there's a bit of a pattern for many

 

[JosefK]

But you have to factor in a fan's penchant for massive over-reaction. I'm a specialist in this area.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

I hope Primo Roglic does a good performance and comes out of the Dauphine well. He deserves his chance in the Tour to have a team behind him

 

[Devil's Elbow]

AG2R must enjoy having their GC leader not be completely terrible at TTs for a change.

 

[broppo]

Roglic completely *** the bed, should he even go to the Tour? He could go stagehunting maybe....

He‘s already Had that chance in 2020

 

[StryderHells]

AG2R must enjoy having their GC leader not be completely terrible at TTs for a change.

And it’s only O’Connors second TT for the year, he’s certainly improved from
last season.
EDIT: Jean-Christophe Peraud wasn’t hopeless against the clock.

 

[Phillip O'Garner]

The second sector seems a lot slower.

 

[titan31]

I mean he beats his teammate in Vingegaard, he's not close to aiming to peak yet and he's the only person who can beat Pogacar imo. He probably can't drop Pogacar, but he can outsprint him for bonus seconds and potentially gap him in those 500m uphill finish sprints he does.

No one else can come close.

Roglic did everything right that year. Just a mutant on planche des belle filles spoiled the plan.

Meanwhile wout van aert gets 5 chances every year to won a monument for Jumbo and always bottles it, Belgian Pozzato

 

[Didinho]

Ganna monster second part. But Hayter went 17sec faster than him in the final. Maybe he paced himself for a fast finish, it could be really close then

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Van Aert should still win this, Ganna's final part was his weakest.

 

[Stringer Bell]

10 secs up to 10 secs down is a big surprise imho

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Great performance from the huge Lombardo Mattia Cattaneo, put time to Roglic, Vingegaard and all the other gc guys

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Cattaneo and Masnada should go to the Tour

 

[Didinho]
