Le Tour 2018 stage 11: Albertville > La Rosière 108,5 km

[hrotha]

I can't wrap my head around how poorly designed this section of the Tour is.

Re: Re:

I think Sagan will win the points classification.

Bold prediction but it is not impossible for him. We'll see.

IMHO no one else gives a damn at this point... I guess Gaviria gave up right after that DQ.

They all want to win but are completely without chance - they were before the race too, though.

It's purely about stages for them at this point imho.

Will we see some action today ? Or will all of the gc contenders wait for stage 12. Only Martin to attack 500 meter from the line..

 

[Simurgh]

hahaha what did I just see? A rider going backwards?

 

[Poursuivant]

Cavendish struggling already.

Re:

Ag2r's great collective from 17 completely disappeared and Movistar doesn't really have the manpower to catch breaks etc., thats a bit unlucky.

Losing two riders already has harmed AG2R for sure.

Different year, same old train grinding everyone else into submission.

 

[Highlander]

We should start a poll for why the riders did not attack today: A) Headwind B) Sky was too strong C) Final climb was not selective enough D) they just gave up

Road kicks up soon, hopefully see some action. Grupetto is already 12:30 down according to the letour.fr website.

I usually have the same thing with every section of the Tour.

To the break or to the peloton?

 

[Serpentin]

Every year the Tour reminds me that it is a dull race and every year the Vuelta starts I feel happy again

It's not about the design, it's about population.

 

[woodburn]

Lead group still gaining time on the peleton on this climb.

 

[Eclipse]

Slower and slower and slower

Oh well.

I guess Nieve would be a very nice stage winner

 

[Serpentin]

Two HC climbs back to back and Kristoff still there.

He's just missing a TDF stage to have wins in all GTs

 

[bajbar]

Froome clearly doesn't want Thomas to get the jersey. He will try to get the stage and the jersey with his washing machine attack tomorrow on Alpe d'Huez...

 

[DNP-Old]

About damn time.

 

[Savant12]

Train enthusiasts would be loving this stage right now.

 

[woodburn]

Movistar on the front!

 

[Eclipse]

lmao what was that movistar
