Tour de France 2019 stage 17: Pont du Gard > Gap 200 km

[Broccolidwarf]

Trentin has got this, the rest all look beat.

 

[sir fly]

Trentin looks like he got bored by riding in the group.
Could've waited for sprint, but got bored.

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Asgreen going after him - it's probably too late though

 

[Wvv]

Without any bad luck, this is a certain victory for the European champ.

 

[KZD]

Asgreen waited too long

Re:

The guy doesn't know his own strength

I'm sure he could have gone with Trentin.

Edit: Ok, maybe not.

What was going on there with jumbo and ineos

 

[Salvarani]

I wonder what the jury will think of that from Martin

Re:

More road blocking antics??
Jumbo doing an Ineos to Ineos?

 

[Scarponi]

Sad that the Cofidis rider didn’t hold onto third. Rest of those losers didn’t deserve it

 

[Wvv]

1. Trentin
2. Asgreen +37
3. Van Avermaet +41
4. Mollema
5. Teuns
6. Izagirre
7. Oss + 44
8. Perichon +50
9. Skujins
10. Herrada +55

The three biggest favourites in that smaller selection of 10 riders.

MS again
Nice for Matteo T

Boring stage. Fight for the stage win was non-existent

 

[Pantani Attacks]

Who's highest ranked in the GC out of the breakaway guys?

Yeah but the GC!

 

[Mayomaniac]

Trentin already said that this one was his target after Yates won his first stage.

 

[tobydawq]

Movistar let the team classification go today so they will probably go nuts tomorrow.

Re:

I'm guessing Meurisse.

Re:

According to Leclercq it's Xandro Meurisse who enters the top 15 now!

 

[Leinster]

Re: Re:

I'm guessing Meurisse.

NBC coverage showed Meurisse as about 28 minutes down and closest to the lead. He should move way up in the gc tonight.

Alaphilippe with the cheeky sprint win

Nibali not evem dropped today

There was a 12 minute gap between 17th and 18th in the GC. Meurisse was 19th, and only moves up 5 spots.

Strong win by Trentin. Michelton racking up some stage wins. Four so far.

 

[Jungle Cycle]

well done by Trentin and in the mountain..!?..
Martin x Rowe was more entertaining..

 

[yaco]

Trentin has been in good form since the beginning of the TDF,so it was no surprise he was the strongest today - Matthews functions best when he is a co-leader.
