Tour de France Tour de France 2020 | Stage 10 (Ile d’Oleron / Le Chateau d’Oleron) – Île de Ré / Saint-Martin-de-Ré, 168,5 km

[Eyeballs Out]

For once, an intermediate sprint that was actually worth sprinting for and DQS soft-pedalled it

Is something wrong with Carthy today? He's lurking in the back, while his team is on the first line

 

[HelloDolly]

Carthy was down in the crash

 

[BlueRoads]

They have improved a lot, now that Daminani has taken over as a DS. Viviani coming to the training camp in Bananito shape after the lockdown (allegedly) is a bit of a problem in this Tour.

Viviani trained last year how to be a GC helper. So they should just forget about any sprints (well there aren't many left anyway). He can be valuable for Martin.

Saving himself for the real sprint

Sprint was OK, Sagan is consistent even if not as impressive as in the past. Too bad no breaks. Maybe the bridge will give some wind but overall snooze fest stage. Surely not what was hoped for when planning the race.

Nairo down?

Images from the bridge show cross tailwind. Dangerous.

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Sunweb looking good, maybe this is the sprint for Bol?

 

[75Driver]

Barguil drafting that car like a pro.

Bike camera at the front of the peloton showing 90 kph - they removed that quickly again

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Nairo down?

No it was Barguill

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Ineos punching it now.

Saving himself for the real sprint

Trentin is making a strong push and he might make it all the way to the finish in a couple of the rolling stages coming up, unlike Bennett and, possibly, 2020-Sagan.

 

[Volderke]

wind at the finish. It could still happen.

 

[Broccolidwarf]

4 k to the bridge

 

[huangho]

We all know the bridge is going to be important, do all the GC leaders know??

 

[Leinster]

NOW the crosswinds

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Mads Pedersen killing himself to bring Porte to the front group..... No sprint for him today

 

[spalco]

Oh ***, bad crash.

 

[Krokro]

That stage is stupid. So many road furnitures, we all saw that coming.

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Looks like not enough wind to split it further.

 

[Red Rick]

Jumbo soft pedaling for now

Beautiful bridge
