Critérium du Dauphiné 2023, June 4 - 11

[Mayomaniac]

After the last few months the talk about the bad Colnago TT bikes is clearly obsolete. Their new material seems to be top class.

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

O'Connor quite good!

 

[Samu Cuenca]

So is Pogačar now the favourite for the Tour again?

 

[Mayomaniac]

Ciccone with a Sosa-level TT...

 

[Samamba]

Bjerg wins

 

[Berniece]

Close for Vingegaard, 12s too slow

Yeah, something is clearly not right with Mas and his health.

If he has Covid, its the best time to have it. (before the tour)

 

[Rob5091]

Did Mas abandoned?

According to PCS - official website had him finish way down.

 

[DJ Sprtsch]

Did Mas abandoned?

No, but he finished 2 minutes 40 seconds behind Bjerg.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Remco should do le tour

 

[Lequack]

Can Bjerg win the overall?

 

[tobydawq]

Awesome for Bjerg!

 

[Mayomaniac]

Herring fishing pacing strategy seems to be the way to go?

 

[Samamba]

Wtf did Mas do in the last 10km?

 

[StryderHells]

Can Bjerg win the overall?

I wouldn’t think so

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Can Bjerg win the overall?

If previous achievements are an indication, chances are not looking good.

Interestingly, Jumbo seem to have taken a step back in performance when it comes to aerodynamics. I think in the flatter windy sections every Jumbo rider so far this season has been quite underwhelming, when it's more about power (uphill) they seem to be fine.

 

[Poursuivant]

Nasty last km uphill

 

[RedheadDane]

Can Bjerg win the overall?

No.

 

[Lequack]

If previous achievements are an indication, chances are not looking good.

But he's never before rode for himself though. It would be silly for UAE to not try and just default to make him help Yates, who is 50 seconds down.

Dan Bigham was working with them until he went to Evilneos

 

[Didinho]

Bjerg should be the first one on the startlist for Le Tour after Pogi. What a beast!

 

[Elos Anjos]

This TT would have Remco win by 5m.

 

[Valv.Piti]

Wtf did Mas do in the last 10km?

Seems like it really punished people, a lot of riders blew up, but probably none harder than Mas today.

Really hope these rumors are not true

1.90 m and 78 kg doesn't exactly scream "Good climber".
