Or not.

Cerny wins the stage after soloing from the breakway. And Ineos do enough to bring back the time gap.

GC
Dunbar
Tullet
Hirschi

First career win for Dunbar apparently.

QS pulled a Jumbo™ today

Why is it so difficult to get updates on where a 4x Tour de France champ finished in Coppi e Bartali?

He was only 12 minutes away from lanterne rouge this morning, i.e. greatness was within his grasp.

Finished 63rd. No lanterne rouge for him.

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

A nice win for Dunbar, who has spent the last couple of years getting sick or injured whenever he was approaching a target race

 

[Kazistuta]

What happened to Öti? (You know, Cian?)

And this time it was Cerny who got the win.

 

[Jumbo Visma Fan :)]

I don’t know, hopefully not sick or injury related.

Yeah, it was definitely more like Cerny and Honoré's win in Vuelta al País Vasco last year than anything Jumbo has ever done.

Cerny couldn't very well have gotten the win in anything Jumbo has ever done.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Well last year Honoré did get a win in this race at least partially because of a Jumbo rider.

Last year Honoré definitely perfected the art of winning non-contested "sprints".

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Not only did Omer Goldstein not win the stage nor the GC, he also had to carry a heavy ham around, which he probably has to get Froome to eat for him.

It's a mortadella, not a ham

I read on the live ticker that Uijtdebroeks crashed in the final 20 km. Hopefully it's not serious but he DNFed.

i know. You even corrected Lequack for writing it last year, but this time I blame it all on the ISP SoMe team

He's on the startlist for GP Industria tomorrow.

 

[RedheadDane]

Meanwhile, the Astana lineup for GP Industria:

2x Nibali
2x Lopez, but no Superman
1x Nurlykhassym

 

[Landeirovic]

Hirschi for the win!

Still over a week away but looking at the start list Cav and Pedersen are going to mop up the stages with Viviani maybe sneaking one.

Just making sure you’re paying attention

 

[RedheadDane]

Just making sure you’re paying attention

Sure looked like you were trying to make him Swedish...
You know how I feel about giving Danish riders to other countries, even countries that might have a slight... shortage of riders.

I'm fairly certain that Nurbergen Nurlykhassym must be referred to by his full name at all times.

If anything I’d make him American so we can have some success again. We can have joint custody. Denmark gets Pedersen Fri-Sun, America Mon-Weds, and Sweden Thu.

No. No! NO!
He's 100% Danish.



And the US has definitely had more success than Sweden in recent years.

I insist that the US would really like Pedersen’s success so Mon-Wed he’s ours.
