Tour de France 2019 stage 14: Tarbes - Tourmalet 117 km

[gregrowlerson]

Liquigas is up to something

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Who'll be the bravest rider today :Question:
Landa
Porte
Fuglsang
Yates
Quintana
Uran
Pinot

Pinot for sure, otherwise FDJ would not be pulling the peloton.

 

[Samamba]

I'm happy Nibali joined the break but to be honest, it's kinda weird to chose today to attack. I always thought this is the mountain stage least likely to go to the break.

Same, but polka dots 100%. 40 points on the Tourmalet so winning here would put him in a really good position to bring that jersey home.

 

[Rollthedice]

El Sputnik kind of attacks from the break.

 

[Rollthedice]

Sagan is in mountain goat mode today.

 

[Climbing]

Breakaway is doomed, at least some leg stretching for last week by Vinnie.

Not before he bags the points in Soulor.

Movistar train

 

[Samamba]

Movistar chasing hard now. Gonna be hard for break indeed.

 

[Salvarani]

Lets go Movistar

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Great to see, Ineos is not being allowed to dictate the pace.

This stage might explode

 

[Pricey_sky]

This will thin things out.

 

[Poursuivant]

Alaphilippe far down already

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Alaphilippe all alone already.

 

[Mayomaniac]

Big Lenny dropping most of the riders by riding tempo.

 

[Sciatic]

Argh, so the Belgian broadcast has a long prerecoorded interview with Alaphillippe, and ridiculously they decide to play it just as riders start getting shelled out the back on the Solour. I thought only American broadcast networks were that stupid!

 

[TomLPC]

Rowe drops
His line has ended, his reign is over

 

[Samamba]

Where is Landa?

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Lutsenko again the only Astana able to keep up with Fuglsang on climbs.

 

[Simurgh]

Bardet dropped!

 

[RedheadDane]

Re:

Mas is in the favourite group.
He's in white, remember.

 

[rick james]

Bardet dropped

 

[Pricey_sky]

Bardet? Wow

 

[Gigs_98]

Ouch Bardet. Kinda reminds me on 2016 Pinot

 

[Samamba]

Heu? Why do I not see Landa? Anyone?
