Critérium du Dauphiné May 30-June 6 2021

[Tim Cahill]

 

[Escarabajo]

Everything is in order now. Lopez working for Valverde!

Well. Good work at the end because Valverde won!!!

 

[Leinster]

Ineos trying to be cheeky again. Bala too alive to it.

 

[JosefK]

Everyone beaten by a 41-year-old.

 

[limak_]

Is the ISN rider Froome?


If he got home with the favorites, that is the first slight glimmer of hope for him!

He was dropped much much earlier I think

 

[Broccolidwarf]

The 2 Bora boys look good.

We always tend to forget Bora in GC talks.

 

[Escarabajo]

Shouldn't Valverde be congratulating Lopez instead of Mas?

 

[jaylew]

Yes, Bala!

 

[Laplaz]

Is the ISN rider Froome?


If he got home with the favorites, that is the first slight glimmer of hope for him!

Not him.

 

[kingjr]

He was dropped much much earlier I think

Yeah, about 7 km from the finish.

 

[Red Rick]

Mas managed to look angry at the finish line tbh.

 

[DJ Sprtsch]

That was literally the first time I've ever seen him attack.

He did one or two attacks like this last year as well.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Super Contento!

 

[Broccolidwarf]

He was dropped much much earlier I think

Yeah, it was Hermans.

Damn.

They must consider not selecting him for the Tour now.

He should go race some smaller stuff, away from the limelight of the Tour.

 

[Leinster]

The 2 Bora boys look good.

We always tend to forget Bora in GC talks.

It was noticeable that there was nobody to drop back with Postlbrgr.

 

[Anybody_but..]

Koronin will have an or..sm.

 

[SafeBet]

Logic:

Skjelmose still there - but no DSM riders

Van Wilder finished in the first group.

 

[MartinGT]

According to Brian Smith it was nice of Thomas to let TGH go.

Nah Bria, Thomas just didnt have the legs. He tried a couple of times to go and sat down.

 

[Broccolidwarf]

It was noticeable that there was nobody to drop back with Postlbrgr.

Well, we knew that pre-stage, Pöstlberger said himself he was working as a dom for them today.

 

[Fantastico]

Shouldn't Valverde be congratulating Lopez instead of Mas?

I think what we saw was Mas congratulating Valverde

 

[limak_]

Yeah, it was Hermans.

Damn.

They must consider not selecting him for the Tour now.

He should go race some smaller stuff, away from the limelight of the Tour.

I think his last announcement was the first step in his preparation to get around the fact that he's not gonna race the Tour.

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Van Wilder finished in the first group.

Dammit, wishful thinking I guess

Edit:

I obviously missed him, because I forgot he was riding in the white jersey, and I was looking for the DSM one.

Great fight by Wilder, after his crash yesterday.

 

[JosefK]

Yeah, it was Hermans.

Damn.

They must consider not selecting him for the Tour now.

He should go race some smaller stuff, away from the limelight of the Tour.

No more miracles for the Thin Man.

 

[kingjr]

It was noticeable that there was nobody to drop back with Postlbrgr.

Pöstlberger said in an interview before the race, "We're not trying to defend the yellow jersey, we're going for GC now."

 

[Remy55]

Kelderman looks really good so far, he is even sprinting
