Tour de France 2020 | Stage 1 (Nice - Nice, 156 km)

[Red Rick]

Somehow Lopez already managed to have to chase back to the peloton.

We're gonna have a moment this Tour where there's no crash but MAL is down.

 

[Faserr]

Thunderstorms passing by north of nizza.

Good thing he can chase back faster than a bird or a plane.

Somehow Lopez already managed to have to chase back to the peloton.

There was a crash so he did a burnout, had a latte and got the team to bring him back. He's short on training and it's always good to check the loyalty of the gregarios.

Alright... the trains just don't want to chase too hard later on in order to keep their sprinters as fresh as possible.
That's why the shortish leash.

 

[Ted Striker]

Wet descent

 

[Rollthedice]

One grenadier left behind.

 

[gregrowlerson]

Sivakov a bit of trouble.

 

[70kmph]

Sivakov crashes

 

[perico]

Sivakov looks like he won’t make it 3 leaders for Ineos. Struggling after crash

 

[Ted Striker]

What was up with Pavel

What was up with Pavel

Yes, what happened? Crash early in the stage?

 

[perico]

What was up with Pavel

Crash with LaTour

 

[sir fly]

Are there any daredevils fancying their chances?
I'm afraid the first stage's way too early to risk on slim chances.

 

[Faserr]

He crashed with Latour

 

[JosephK]

Siv didn't look too well, there. The day is already taking a toll on a supposedly "easy" stage.

 

[TomLPC]

That... doesn't look good

Sivakov just crashed.

 

[skippo12]

Martin or Declercq. Who will end up with more kms at the front of the peleton this year?

 

[Ted Striker]

Slippy roads

 

[Rollthedice]

Another crash.

 

[skippo12]

Bora and EF riders crashed. Looked like Oss or Pöstlberger.

 

[perico]

Odds they neutralize ala Andy Schleck 2010

No Canc, no Abandony

 

[JosephK]

Weather taking its toll. With the constant road spray, expect some riders to come down with stomach bugs in the coming days.
