Critérium du Dauphiné 2025, June 8 - 15

[Red Rick]

17 seconds, odd climb

Probably the first time it's actually been true he got dropped on acceleration.

 

[Boehmand]

1st, 2nd and 3rd all solo is such a boring race situation

I would also support more bunch sprints!

 

[Red Rick]

Lipo tried a bit too hard to stay with and perhaps catch Vingegaard.

He's still gradually gaining on Evenepoel, so the blowup isn't that bad.

 

[Tim Cahill]

15 seconds, not 20

Gap coming down a touch but I think Pogacar looks within himself

 

[nilfen]

Armstrong's reign or this - cant remember a worse time to follow cycling! Call is greatness - I call it boring!

 

[Schultz0620]

I’m sure he will be a lot better at the Tour, but Remco is way off the mark this week with his climbing.

 

[scribers]

As a pogi fan, when Vingo starts looking like Michael Jackson I feel fear.

 

[Red Rick]

Pogacar has barely had the motor in front of him today, and it shows in the gap

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Has Big Jorge taken off or given up?

 

[Boehmand]

Stellar ride by Johannessen BTW - Uno-X may not have to solely go for stages at the Tour.

 

[Netserk]

Jorgenson completely exploded.

 

[Blobs]

We are so lucky to watch Pog's greatness turn every race into a complete snooze fest.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Tour still over, but I would say slightly less over than yesterday

I would say 7/10 on the Tourover-o-metre

 

[perico]

My one comment about Tadej making things boring.

If Tadej disappeared, it wouldn’t change anything. It would be Jonas blowing everyone out by an even larger margin than he’s losing to Pogi.

 

[Bolder]

I’m not sure super short cranks are helping Jonas. He looks like he’s a bit cramped
.

 

[Red Rick]

Lipowitz appears to be holding off the widely considered 3rd best GT rider in the world.

 

[Boehmand]

Lipowitz dropping massive time now

 

[KZD]

Armstrong's reign or this - cant remember a worse time to follow cycling! Call is greatness - I call it boring!

The Texan fraud only cared about the Tour. Just like a certain Danish rider nowadays.

Fortunately we have a rider like Pogačar to honour the sport in its fullest.

 

[Red Rick]

Jury read my comment on limited motor drafting and now they need to compensate

 

[Salvarani]

Remco has one tempo riding high mountains... slow.

Yep

If you compiled a list of all the races they have been 1 and 2 - it would be insane - and probably unparalleled in cycling history.

Yes, now it's boring all year long! ;-)

That's what I was saying quite a few times recently.
It's a matter of perception. Remove Pogacar and MVDP cruises to 10-12 monuments already.
Remove Pogacar and Vingegaard wins 5 Tours in a row. Easily.

Lipowitz appears to be holding off the widely considered 3rd best GT rider in the world.

But just to the super human bots. To the mortal ones he's gaining time.

Lipowitz probably the one that could challenge Almeida for 3rd. Remco has to take a massive step up to be on the podium again.

 

[Tim Cahill]

It's funny when they're helping some pro-conti Italian guy in a sleepy breakaway, but there shouldn't a camera moto so near in a chase like this
