Panic stations in the group as they come to the shocking realisation that Simon Yates has made it back
He'd have done better to sit on the wheel of MVdPIf Pidcock goes top 10 after all that, I'd be amazed.
Riding a slower tempo uphill will benefit their leader.Why are they helping UAE ffs
UAE seems to know that.Riding a slower tempo uphill will benefit their leader.
Probably they want to try to make the race hard on the flats, to cause some fatigue on Pogacar and slow him down in the climbs.Why are they helping UAE ffs
It was outrageous, but it was just the last 20sec gap it seemed. UAE really turned it off. Not sure why after all that effort tbhOutlandish car pacing. At least we’ll get to see what everybody’s got. Too bad Pidcock made that huge push
Very few riders stronger than a Simon Yates 3 days before he loses 25 minutes in GCI would be surprised if Yates features in the finish as he's struggled will illness since the Alula Tour.
Let me furiously check if Simon Yates is racing RomandieVery few riders stronger than a Simon Yates 3 days before he loses 25 minutes in GC
Almeida without sleeves.Whoever is still wearing gloves and a rain jacket is laughing right now

They will go hard when it matters. The route is hard enough to make a difference. Even if they just go hard for 1 climb.UAE rode exactly the way they planned before the race probably, I don‘t think they rode any harder because Van der Poel was behind, they still have six riders in the group. I‘d argue they‘ve been keeping too many riders actually.
I don't think so either. Israel - Premier Tech on the other hand...UAE rode exactly the way they planned before the race probably, I don‘t think they rode any harder because Van der Poel was behind, they still have six riders in the group. I‘d argue they‘ve been keeping too many riders actually.
