Critérium du Dauphiné 2025, June 8 - 15

[Salvarani]

Nor is Barre

At this rate an 18 year old frenchman will be in 6th by tonight - in a race with all 3 aliens present.

Something poetic about Bardet retiring and Seixas being there on GC atm

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Only 7 riders from the peloton made the group? Pogi, Vingegaard, Lipo, Jorgenson, Evenepoel, Seixas, Van Gils.

THJ as well

 

[Samamba]

It sounds like we've finally found the real Belgian Spilak.

Till today he never likes longer mountains either and thus wasn't going for GC in one week races, so no Spilak. It was always a mental thing. His numbers were always good enough for this kind of climbing, but he can't do it mentally. Or at least that's what he's always been saying.

Why isn't Evenepoel wearing his golden helmet

If I had to guess it’s taking on too much heat.

 

[Salvarani]

Why isn't Evenepoel wearing his golden helmet

He didnt feel very golden today

 

[Boehmand]

Where’s the gold helmet?

I would bet you it absorbs too much heat on days like today

 

[Boehmand]

Lol - just saw you replied to your own question, with the very same thing

Takes some getting used to with remco as a spectator. Took me quite a while to accept not seeing him in Belgian champs jersey

 

[Netserk]

THJ as well

Is Barré there too?

 

[Potomac]

I thought odd to see a small lake dammed up so high in the hills. Too small for hydro-power. And I didn't see a ski resort that could have used the water for snow making.

 

[scribers]

No way a chase group this big let’s bardet survive to the end.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Is Barré there too?

No, they showed him cresting with Soler and someone else. Buchmann, Tulett, Mühlberger, CRod and Mas were being towed by Romeo in a group inbetween.

Looks like some of those made it back now. No idea if Barre as well

 

[Tim Cahill]

Carlos Rodriguez worrying form, Ineos all in for Geraint's second Tour victory.

 

[Berniece]

Why isn't Evenepoel wearing his golden helmet

Was too hot

 

[Tricycle Rider]

I really don't care what happens today, as long as Romain takes the stage.

Not sure of his chances, but it's nice he's getting some TV time all to himself probably for the very last time.

 

[Netserk]

Many have made it up again.

Tulett attacks.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Go on Remco big counter over the top

 

[Tim Cahill]

Kuss has been out there all day, he's going nowhere, just set a moderate tempo.

 

[Red Rick]

Absolute nonsense in progress.

 

[scribers]

I have no idea why visma is bothering with this

 

[Netserk]

Half measure from Visma today. Neither really attacking on CdF nor doing the all-stage-full-pace.

 

[scribers]

They might get a little race training into Vingo and an other stage win into pogi

 

[Boehmand]

No idea why Visma is letting UAE manage the tempo now, so Pogacar can get more doms back

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Because otherwise they‘d level the playing field by using up their doms instead
