Tour de France 2020 | Stage 16 (La Tour-du-Pin - Villard-de-Lans, 164 km)

[Hugo Koblet]

Kämna is a monster. He was really impressive in week 3 of last year's Tour as well, and now he's riding like a motorcycle again. His recovery seems insane.

But 15 k solo is a long way, with the 3 front guys 1 on 1.

All on their own (for now)

 

[WKA311]

Kamna will win a GT next year.

The plan is to ride a GT for GC in 2022 if everything goes to plan.

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Ardennes? Kämna is going down the GT road... I doubt he cares about the Ardennes races.

Let's talk after the Liege

Didn't know he was going the GC route though, so thanks for that.

 

[Mayomaniac]

Kämna is a big breakthrough for me this Tour, I have never seen him as a potential Ardennes classic winner, but now I do!

He's more a gt guy for me, great recovery, good TTer and the harder a mountain stage gets, the better for him.
He also likes bad weather and dislikes the heat, so the Giro would be perfect for him.

 

[SafeBet]

Honestly Carapaz rode the climb like a donkey. There was no reason to keep pushing that much after Alaphilippe blew.

 

[ppanther92]

Kamna will win a GT next year.

I am quite sure this won't happen. Still a great rider.

 

[Salvarani]

Ardennes? Kämna is going down the GT road... I doubt he cares about the Ardennes races.

He has potential as a one-day racer thats for sure

And GTs in the future, if he keeps developing

 

[SarahtheDane]

Kämna returns the bet x7, should I do it?

 

[Red Rick]

No idea why Jumbo are even riding over 3W/kg here

I see him as a Fuglsang type rider - which is why I mentioned the Ardennes later this year (where most the Giro riders wont take part)

 

[Escarabajo]

Who is the big UAE rider?

 

[SKSemtex]

Kamna is saving the Tour for BORA. He has it in the bag.

I see where you're coming from, but even Fuglsang has a much better sprint that him, it's his biggest weakness.

Them chasing Martin felt like a grumpy granddad telling the kids not to have fun.

 

[Salvarani]

Kämna is gone!

He should have it, if nothing more happens

 

[Billie]

Who is the big UAE rider?

Stake Laengen,

Showing of their new shiny helmets

 

[Mayomaniac]

Who is the big UAE rider?

Probably Laengen, he's 195cm tall.

 

[Red Rick]

Kuss trying to Kelderman Pogacar

 

[Eclipse]

Kamna absolutely killing this, hard to see Carapaz getting back on terms unless the former went a bit too deep but I seriously doubt it

 

[Cassirer]

Kamna is saving the Tour for BORA. He has it in the bag.

Pls dont say that...

 

[JosephK]

Carapaz is a great climber but not so strong as a time-trialer, and Kamna has the advantage.

 

[Broccolidwarf]

I see where you're coming from, but even Fuglsang has a much better sprint that him, it's his biggest weakness.

Fuglsang sprinting used to be like watching syrup drop off a spoon.

He has worked a LOT on gaining a little punch, in the last few years, but it used to be that irrespective of the group, Fuglsang could never win a sprint, even against tiny climbers.

 

[Escarabajo]

I am falling asleep.

 

[huangho]

This should be for Kämna, but last time I though the same and Martinez proved me wrong...

 

[Escarabajo]

They are changing strategy and Pogacar is going to get them again!
