Alaphilippe I saw, but what about van Aert?

I was indeed looking for blue...

 

[RedheadDane]

Just to be sure; the graphic with the jerseys refer to the owner of the jerseys, not necessarily the wearers, right? So that graphic basically just refers to Pogacar.

My God these last 50 k are going to be absolutely brutal

What you've all been waiting for (I decided to not open a new thread, though):



Stage 5: 14 hills in the final half, ridiculously tough stage, think Recanati-stage from 2019 but harder, if Strade guys want to play early, it could be the best stage all year.

Well...

 

[Eshnar]

if there is any sort of agreement in front they'll see those five at the finish

 

[SafeBet]

Brutal attack by Bernal. Such a spectacular rider when healthy.

 

[Escarabajo]

What is going on. 60 km from the finish and they want to ride hard. Group already thinned down to 5 riders!

 

[Eshnar]

well nvm

 

[SafeBet]

Mechanical for Pog!

 

[Eshnar]

pogacar mechanical

 

[Oliver]

VDP solo

 

[luckyboy]

I was going to say VDP is wastinig energy with all his attacks and work in that attack group but maybe they just aren't gonna catch him.

 

[Red Rick]

Jumbo learning their lessons.

Van Aert is gifting the stage to Van der Poel

 

[Faserr]

I think MVdP is gone.

 

[Rollthedice]

Spotted Quintana's elbow in a group of three dropped from VDP chasers.

 

[Oliver]

I think MVdP is gone.

Yes he is.

 

[Red Rick]

This region should have its own triple of big one day races.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

How high will this gap go? Wouldn't be surprised to see it end up at 2 minutes when the day is over.

 

[SafeBet]

Yes he is.

Now the real question is whether he can close the 20 minutes gap he's got in GC.

Allaphilipe is heading for disco car

I feel for Hiquita as he was so good yesterday ...to small for all this wind
