yeah, sure, but he must have spent enormous energies to stay up there with the best. I think it's a reasonable decision to go for Stuyven, also because it's likely to be a relatively slow sprint, which suits Pedersen less than a high speed oneDid you see Pedersen climb the last two days?
He's only got 2 days left in rainbows though so I hope he does something to show it offDid you see Pedersen climb the last two days?
He's going for the Paris stage.He's only got 2 days left in rainbows though so I hope he does something to show it off
Shame he didnt get more days in it. At least he has gotten one win so far and has been good this Tour.He's only got 2 days left in rainbows though so I hope he does something to show it off
In 1995 lotto finished with only 2 riders. They weren't even included in the team competition anymore.I just saw that Lotto riders possess four of the five bottom places on GC. Considering that they only have five riders in the race it's no surprise to see them last in the team's competition. But more than 13 hours down?
That is BY FAR the largest deficit in modern times in the Tour (I checked back to the beginning of the 90s and never was it more than nine hours, but this year, NTT and Total are also more than nine and ten hours behind, respectively, and Israel have a shot as well).
in the early parts it actually seems to be fairly narrow as well. Would be fun to see Mohoric on the attack there - let's hope he'll get the freedom to go for itThe profile for the last 14k with mostly downhill is really insidious speaking a risk for the peleton sprint train miscalculating the hunting disance to a possible strong breakaway.
Bahrain will probably tell him to save his legs to set up Landa on the Champs-Elysees.in the early parts it actually seems to be fairly narrow as well. Would be fun to see Mohoric on the attack there - let's hope he'll get the freedom to go for it
Bahrain has really messed up this Tour. Sure, let Landa target GC and perhaps he can end up top 5, but not giving any freedom to Colbrelli etc. is just insane given Landa's GC history.Bahrain will probably tell him to save his legs to set up Landa on the Champs-Elysees.
But that is a factor of DNFs and DNSs, not of absence from the breaks and failing to compete for stages or stay in the main peloton. Different reflection on the team.In 1995 lotto finished with only 2 riders. They weren't even included in the team competition anymore.
It's a remarkable stat but you can't say they had a bad Tour. After they lost both Gilbert and Degenkolb in the first stage they still managed to win two stages with Ewan and might snatch another win today or (more likely) on sunday.But that is a factor of DNFs and DNSs, not of absence from the breaks and failing to compete for stages or stay in the main peloton.

Shame. The one NTT rider who has really impressed in this raceMichael Gogl DNS
Mads Pedersen is helping Porte out today according to Danish media. Saving some energy for Paris.yeah, sure, but he must have spent enormous energies to stay up there with the best.
