Critérium du Dauphiné 2023, June 4 - 11

[Samamba]

Think he has this

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Herregodts isn't normal. Belgian De Gendt.

He's a normal guy with a great moto draft. Farcical

 

[Tricycle Rider]

I really shouldn't get this emotionally invested in breakaways, but I really hope Rune (not the tennis player) can make it.

 

[titan31]

Motorbike with a great assist here. Absolutely ridiculous

 

[RedheadDane]

He has this

I have definitely seen people get caught when they had around 15 seconds with just over 1 K to go.

 

[Red Rick]

Vingegaard what a legend

 

[Salvarani]

I have definitely seen people get caught when they had around 15 seconds with just over 1 K to go.

Good for you

 

[Wvv]

Oh my f'ing god he deserved that one.
Poor Rune.

 

[awavey]

sooo cloose

 

[Salvarani]

Heartbreak for Rune

 

[Poursuivant]

Jeez that was painful

 

[titan31]

Sad for him but kind of happy he didn't win with the motopacing he got.

 

[Samamba]

Heartbreak, but he also would've never been close without the moto anyways.

 

[Jumbo Visma Fan :)]

Laporte in the last few meters.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Damn, so close!

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Ugh. Heartbreaking.

 

[RedheadDane]

Good for you

Just your absolute certainty he'd get it.
But still looked like a top-5.

 

[DNP-Old]

He's a normal guy with a great moto draft. Farcical

It would seem you do not know who Herregodts is.

 

[Krzysztof_O]

Oh boy, caught literally in the last second of the race.

 

[Jumbo Visma Fan :)]

Oh my f'ing god he deserved that one.
Poor Rune.

Sad but he also got motopaced which increased his advantage, so not really that sad.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Unfortunate for Herregodts but it would have been a really stupid win with all that motopacing - I was actually rooting for the peloton there. Final 10k were also a bit too technical in this weather for a stage where the main climb was like 5k at 5%, glad there wasn't a major crash.

 

[wheresmybrakes]

He's a normal guy with a great moto draft. Farcical

Yeah, and Laporte has not been drafted by his team mates throughout this stage.

 

[KZD]

Incredible tight finish, Herregodts was catched in the last 20 meters. Laporte can really thank Vingegaard for this win.

As for the combativity award, I think we have already understood that its a bit of a joke when French riders are involved in breakaways in these French races.

 

[Jagartrott]

Glad the completely impartial French decided to give the combativity award to a French rider instead of the guy that came within 10 meters of a win.
