Critérium du Dauphiné 2022, June 5 - 12

[Salvarani]

What a view

 

[Savant12]

At least Pog will make it less predictable.

 

[Peyroteo94]

Pogacar laughing at home and saying "let's see if you can drop me"

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

This is ridiculous

It was very much expected. By far the strongest team at the start, with the two last runners-up of the TDF. Not exactly surprising they dropped O'Connor etc.

 

[dercuforever]

They are going for the KOM !

 

[Red Rick]

Rog please take some frigging turns

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Brutal stuff! Bodes well for the entertainment in the Tour, although of course it's hard to judge when the competition here isn't that great.

 

[titan31]

This is how Jumbo can do MTFs if Kuss isn't there

Also helps that Pog isn't there. I'd sort of expect Vingegaard and Roglic to beat O'Connor, Haig and Chaves like this.

Even a fully healthy Mas, Vlasov, Martinez, they probably don't drop this far out.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Not the best for this particular race but good for the Tour I think so net positive, Roglic looks in insane shape.

 

[woodburn]

Roglic wheelsucker.

 

[Unterlenkerfahrend]

 

[KZD]

Roglič didn't even get out of the saddle when Vingegård attacked. These two won't be easy to beat even for Pogačar.
O'Connor with another great performance today, looking sharp for the Tour

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Just picture now Pog's phantom on Rog's wheel

 

[Cagalitroso]

Brutal stuff! Bodes well for the entertainment in the Tour, although of course it's hard to judge when the competition here isn't that great.

The Gods will make Roglic have a ridiculous accident within the first 2 stages and we will be resigned to yet another ceremonial parade


Positive Sunday

 

[Eclipse]

Not the best for this particular race but good for the Tour I think so net positive, Roglic looks in insane shape.

The form looks good for sure, but it's hard to tell when the level is so low

 

[Cassirer]

Rog please take some frigging turns

He is now

 

[Rollthedice]

Rog is waiting for the last 500m to stomp Jonas.

 

[Bonimenier]

Vingegaard looks stronger

 

[woodburn]

Jonas almost crashed himself going uphill.

 

[SarahtheDane]

Rog please take some frigging turns

But remember, Vingegaard is only doing the Dauphine in a helper role. Not for GC...

 

[Raggamuffin]

Vingegaard: My stage?
Roglic:

 

[Unterlenkerfahrend]

Vingegaard currently wondering who that guy with him is and why the leader of the sprint classification is so good uphill.

 

[Red Rick]

GPS drunk?

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Hard to be surprised by this. The combination of the best riders being increasingly clustered in a handful of teams just makes it a lot more likely for the circumstances for one team to dominate the GC like this to arise, we saw this last year even more often.

 

[sir fly]

Behind O'Connor the riders seem to be attacked by the climb rather than attacking the climb.

A likable duo that Chaves - Haig.
