Critérium du Dauphiné May 30-June 6 2021

[SafeBet]

Both Craddock and Kwiato pretty close to Vingegaard at first check.

Live exit interview with Vingegaard (Danish TV2):

"Worked a lot on my TT this year and the legs felt good"
"The route is hard to find rhythm on, which suits me well"
"The shape seems timed well for the Tour, I'm on track"
"I expect the late starters like Asgreen and Thomas will beat my time"

 

[Lequack]

Nobody expected the Danish inquisition.

 

[Taxus4a]

Taxus, I never thought I'd say this, but you might be exactly right!

Uff, Vingegard time is very good, top 3..almost 45 km/h..so I was wrong...but not calculating the average speed to winm but the time acording toi that speed

 

[Taxus4a]

29 Th at the intermediate for Froome..not a bad time

 

[Tim Cahill]

Froome +36

Like, it isn't particularly bad considering I doubt he has done anything on a TT bike in ages

 

[PhiLiz]

Le's get the dawg, Nils! You're halfway there.

 

[Taxus4a]

I dont have images...But Froome maybe overpass Gautier...he must be watching him

 

[broppo]

why are they not showing mcnulty lol?

 

[BlueRoads]

What on earth did Vingegaard do there?

Froome will soon be watching a rider, yes, but not the one who started earlier than him.

 

[Taxus4a]

Yes, It is probably Polits overpass him...It wont be bad..of cpurse..But I think it would be very at the end.

 

[bigcog]

Froome looks like he's really struggling on the bike, not his old TT style. Unsurprising i suppose ...

 

[SafeBet]

Nope, it just happened.

 

[meat puppet]

Froome's saddle appears to be a lot higher than during the sky years. Hips look very unstable.

But the main thing is that real talent always shines through.

 

[PhiLiz]

Le's get the dawg, Nils! You're halfway there.

Yeah! What a beautiful image. Well done Politt.

 

[Pirazziattacks]

I don't think I've ever seen Froome get out of the saddle this much, and definitely not on a TT bike.

 

[BlueRoads]

Vingegaard is the new Roglic.

 

[WKA311]

Froome is still on the old Factor ITT bike I think? Brändle was finally having the new model in the last Giro TT. Wonder if Froomes will be ready for the Tour.

 

[Eeslliw]

Vingegaard really showing he will be a threat for GC in GTs. With TT like this, and proven climbing he looks build for it. Only question is recovery and if he can maintain high level for whole 3 weeks.

 

[Red Rick]

Froome terrible.

 

[Savant12]

Froome looks bad on the TT bike. Does not look like he is comfortable in a position whilst holding the TT bars.

 

[Taxus4a]

Not a bad time for Froome, but he did better the first part. Less than 2 minutes with an especialist as Vingegard.

 

[Panda Claws]

Froome terrible.

Sandbagging for the Tour

 

[Eeslliw]

Froome is still on the old Factor ITT bike I think? Brändle was finally having the new model in the last Giro TT. Wonder if Froomes will be ready for the Tour.

Does he really need it? Is there really difference if you finish 2:30 behind or 2:15 because of a TT bike?
