Tour de France 2020 | Stage 20 ITT (Lure - La Planche des Belles Filles, 36.2km)

great job eurosport

 

[Forever The Best]

Well done Eurosport.

 

[Billie]

With Lopez two minutes down on Pogacar already, Porte just has to stay within reasonable distance of Pogacar's time in the end to get on the podium comfortably.

Lopez can follow Pogacar now.

Like Gustav Larsson at the worlds or Virenque behind Ullrich

 

[Simurgh]

Dumoulin slowly losing time

 

[Big Doopie]

dumo slowing

Dumoulin slowly losing time

I still think a bike change is the better way.

 

[TomLPC]

13.2k left

Pogacar is 30 seconds behind in GC

Negative split is always a possibility for Roggo but this is a bit of a nailbiter

 

[SafeBet]

Seems like switching bikes is the right strategy. Dumoulin losing a lot.

 

[titan31]

God, I'd love if Pogacar actually overtook him, and Jumbo's passiveness over the 3 weeks cost them

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Dumo should have changed bikes

 

[roundabout]

WTF, Dumoulin is behind already?

 

[ppanther92]

Imagine Pogacar not losing time in the crosswinds. Going really, really strong.

 

[Arked]

Roglic will shoot up the climb.

 

[TomLPC]

Can't wait to see Carapaz sailing up the climb on his road bike, fresh as a daisy

 

[burning]

This is actually way more exciting than I imagined, Roglic is definitely not doing well.

 

[Eclipse]

It would be absolutely bonkers if Roglic actually lost the tour here, I've treated this as a complete formality...

I'm still sure this is well in plan but it's got a bit tenser all of a sudden

 

[Simurgh]

I still think a bike change is the better way.

Agreed. I am uncertain as to whether it is worth doing for Pogacar/Roglic as it stands. Imagine if you had some trouble clicking your feet back on the pedal. Crucial seconds lost..

 

[pink_jersey]

Richie Porte is gonna podium this!!!!Go Richie, gooo

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

WTF, Dumoulin is behind already?

No?

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Dumo
should have
changed his bike

Yesm thats a good point. But for Dumo going for the stage - why not?

 

[Big Doopie]

dumo lead climbing back up.

 

[JosephK]

Dumo still strong.
