Tour de France Stage 6: Bayeux – Vire-Normandie (201.5k)

[QueenStagiaire]

I'm not convinced UAE don't want the stage

I've seen Soler, Wellens and Pogacar himself pacing at the front when anything that might threaten the stage goes.

Visma obviously want a bigger one, preferably with one of theirs in to try and get rid of the bonuses. Plus for some reason Pogacar's closed a couple of gaps rather than let his teammate.

They obviously want the stage

The UAE-Visma love-hate relationship is really toxic for the rest of the peloton.

I mean come on, just let a break go already.

Pog not allowing any Visma's in the break...I want to hate him, but his strength is enough that he is the boss of any race, and hating him is just sour grapes.

I'm not sure what Visma is doing but UAE (given comfortable GC situation) should ride more conservatively and save themselves & Pog for key mountain stages. No need to flex muscles here.

No they don't want. Visma is working to close the gap

 

[Peyroteo94]

Why should UAE let Visma win a stage? C'mon.

 

[Heston]

Visma are giving the stage win to Pogacar by riding like this. Frustratingly stupid.

 

[moljoh]

Eddie!

 

[Rou]

Desperate Visma. Clownshow.

 

[Didinho]

Was it the PCM playing YouTuber from Visma who did the tactics today?

Visma will create a lot of enemies today

 

[Tim Cahill]

Hahaha quality Simon, cracked them!!!

They couldn't let Jorgenson go.

 

[Heston]

We might have to go back to Movistar 10 years ago to find a team with worse tactics than Visma today.

 

[Unterlenkerfahrend]

Did Pogacar just personally mark Vauquelin? Slovenian Pozzato apparently scared as heck!

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Visma chasing down Dunbar as he is a key rival for vingegard 8th place on gc

 

[Rou]

Visma yesterday did not know why Jonas exploded in the TT. Maybe don't force echelons with a 60 kg skeleton? Today they are forcing Pogacar to drop Vinge like a stone again.

Huh? Wanting someone on the break, and having to fight Pog, is Pog's decision. Pog is being petty right now. No reason to be this vindictive, yet here we are.

 

[Tim Cahill]

That's it Simon, KOM and stages, pull the radio out there's a good lad.

He knows he's not as strong as Almeida, so he'll have to watch out for Vauquelin.
