Critérium du Dauphiné 2025, June 8 - 15

[TourOfSardinia]

Lipo-suction

 

[perico]

I think Pogi will actually sit up. No point in going 11 KMs solo.

 

[Miha81]

Looks like Lipo could take this

 

[Potomac]

Lipo not willing to help?

 

[Unterlenkerfahrend]

Haha poor Vingegaard.
For the first time ever in his life, Lipowitz woke up today and suddenly decided to race tactically and not pull like a madman.

 

[Boehmand]

If Roglic enters the Tour in shape - and can refrain from falling off his bike constantly - Bora might be the biggest threat to UAE at the Tour.

 

[YavorD]

Forum will melt down when Lipowitz drops both and wins the stage.

 

[Eddy Evenepoel]

Lol the commentor said Lipo «is a smart rider»

 

[madthebad]

Pogi 🚀🚀🚀

 

[Boehmand]

Lipo-suction

Excellent!

 

[Red Rick]

Lipowitz so learned that trick from Roglic.

 

[Heston]

Is Roglic only the 3rd best stage race rider on Bora? Behind Pellizzari and Lipowitz

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Lipowitz so learned that trick from Roglic.

What? Getting dropped by Vingegaard?

 

[Tim Cahill]

7-8 seconds is the gap, feels a bit different but I think he will pull out

 

[titan31]

Lipowitz really needed to help there imo. Was about his best chance of being able to sit at the front for longer

 

[Miha81]

Lipo not willing to help?

Why would he when he got a free ride for couple of minutes?

 

[Red Rick]

Is Roglic only the 3rd best stage race rider on Bora? Behind Pellizzari and Lipowitz

There are 2 better stage racers than Roglic, and they are the first 2 on the road right now.

 

[Schultz0620]

Such a privilege and honor to be able to watch a rider of Pogacar’s class. Can win almost any race on the calendar if he chooses to target it.

 

[Red Rick]

What? Getting dropped by Vingegaard?

Specifically holding on too long to Vingegaard before exploding. Bonus points if he drops back to Evenepoel and then takes the suckwheel there.

 

[Boehmand]

Tug-of-war right now

Pogacar is trying to break Vingegaard - Vingegaard is trying to keep him in sight.

 

[Red Rick]

Vingegaard is bottling an absolute opportunity to sandbag.

 

[Salvarani]

Pog has found a good tempo now

 

[Unterlenkerfahrend]

It's funny that there are people that seriously think this is entertaining.

Irrespective of the fact that we didn't have coverage for the majority of the stage, top end cycling these days is basically watch a Choochoo train for X mountains, a break that does nothing, valleys in between where everyone is drinking, and then 10 minutes of "action" on the final climb followed by riders spread across the road doing an ITT to the finish.

 

[Red Rick]

Strangely it feels like both Pogacar and Vingegaard are kinda mid today and they're just doing threshold training.

 

[Boehmand]

Pogacar has an annoying riding style.

When other riders start to rock their shoulders, they are fatigued - when Pogacar does it, it's either because he is dropping the hammer OR because he is fatigued
