Tour de France 2020 | Stage 14 (Clermont-Ferrand - Lyon, 194 km)

[johnymax]

Sprinters in first group?
Sagan, Trentin, Mezgec, Pedersen, anyone else?
Edit:
Van Aert of course.

 

[Leinster]

So what happens? Quickstep agree to not try and get Bennett back on, and Bora get to control the pace to the finish without having to drill it too hard?

Ewan et al will presumably make it back to the Bennett group.

Will Alaphilippe and others in the front group have a free hand to go for the stage?

 

[70kmph]

Sagan needs a win

Stuyven and Van Aert be there. Fair shot we get an alaphilippe attack

Viviani, Impey

 

[MartinGT]

Was one of the DQS guys giving out to NTT?

I think Declercq wasn't happy at the Bora rider sniggering.

 

[BlueRoads]

Alaphilippe to attack, van Aert to go with him, van Aert to outsprint him. Seen that before
Will Hirschi go with them?

 

[Cance > TheRest]

50 pts for the winner, according to cyclingstage. That also makes more sense than 30 pts, considering the route.

 

[IndianCyclist]

Grudge match 2.0 WVA vs Sagan
WVA to win if allowed

 

[RedheadDane]

50 pts for the winner, according to cyclingstage. That also makes more sense than 30 pts, considering the route.

Then it also makes sense that they're riding it like a sprint stage, coz it is a sprint stage!

50 poins according to the rule book. No link as I'm on the phone

Will Hirschi go with them?

Im regretting picking Bettiol for this stage, but someone like him, or Mads Pederson, or Soren Kragh could get a gap over the final hill and make it that last couple of kms.

Van Avermaet is running out of stage chances. It's today and next Friday and that's it.

Viviani, Impey

Viviani is at the tour

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Sprint dark horse is Bol’s lead out man Casper Pedersen, who should be able to hang on over the last climbs.

 

[gunara]

Just tune back in. When/where was Bennett dropped? Not with Ewan, was he?
Yesterday's disappointment, today's fire for Bora, interesting to see how this one will turn out.

 

[Salvarani]

Are they riding this hard to maybe get Ewan to miss the time limit?

He is 14 minutes behind apparently right now

Ewan was dropped waaay back, Bennett was dropped on the Cat 2. His team tried to bring him back for an hour or so, then gave up.

Thanks

 

[Leinster]

Cosnefroy is in the Bennett group.


SOMEBODY please take that jersey off him. There should be competition rules against this sort of thing.

They tried after 2010 happened.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

They should stop handing out double points on finishes, no attacker believes they can beat Roglic/Pogacar it seems.
