Unless he wins a sprint tomorrow, Froome will be the 7th Tour winner not to win a stage in the process.

Most disastrous TT, even worse than Pinot at the Giro

As usual, the curse of the French riders on the last TT, they really have a mental problem

Yeah, as someone posted earlier its almost a disgrace to be such non-prepared/tooled for short TT as a GT contender. French rly need some lessons in that exercise!

Bardet absolutely deserved to be booed for his poor performance.

At the end of the day, he lost no positions and will finish third, so not too bad.

Despicble.


Brits would never do so.


Apart from last Sunday at Silverstone :eek:
That was also terrible. And their guy won. Kiwis did it too against the Lions, and Brazilians last year to Lavillenie. It's becoming excruciatingly common

Too bad for Kwiatkowski. That guy gave everything for Froome this Tour. Best teammate you could ask for. Would have been nice to have this win.

Sky screwed Landa by making Kwiatkowski pull on the way to Foix. Big shame. Froome's mvp's both get no reward today.

And the scary thing is that Henao was terrible, Nieve broke down in the 3rd week and that Thomas crashed out, and still it was never in doubt.

Congrats to Bodnar.
Bora must be satisfied. Since Sagan's exclusion and Majka's withdrawal they've been searching for publicity.
Two Poles on top of the rankings... Nice.

And Bardet keeps the podium spot.

Are there intermediate sprints with bonus seconds tommorow?
Yes, there is one. But Landa is probably the least likely person in the peloton to win a sprint.

Bardet rode one of the worst TT's I can remember - Reckon he nearly fell off his bike five times.

I love watching the tour de france. I just wish the world tour teams had a required budget range so that all teams were competing with same budget. The Tour de France especially looks like a stage race that greatly depends on a really strong team overall in order to go for gc. I applaud Chris Froome's accomplishments hugely, but his team as a whole is so much stronger than the others, and their budget is as well.

Anyway... who will be the favorites for the Vuelta apart from Nibali? Is Froome riding? Contador?
