Tour de France 2020 | Stage 7 (Millau - Lavaur, 168 km)

[Simurgh]

Pogacar and Landa lose 1'21'' to the favorite group

 

[Salvarani]

Sagan completely botched that, too bad

 

[sir fly]

Suppose it was Van Aert's to lose.
Congrats.

Spectacular stage.

 

[RedheadDane]

Van Aert. Gotta love 'im!

 

[huangho]

1:21 down... Not too bad

 

[spalco]

Where was Sagan in the sprint? Didn't see him at all.

 

[Faserr]

Sagans chain dropped

 

[Poursuivant]

Stinker for Sagan that

 

[Red Rick]

Expected van Aert to win that a lot easier than this

 

[TomLPC]

Did Bernal just beat Sagan in a sprint?

 

[wheresmybrakes]

Another stage win for JV. If they don't win the overall they may come to regret putting all this effort in for stage wins and not walking away with the most important goal.

 

[Escarabajo]

What happened to Sagan after all that work?

 

[Simurgh]

looked like Sagan had a mechanical after bumping into another rider

 

[Baldinger]

Stuyven always 5th.

 

[Salvarani]

Such a shame. Pog looks really strong, but maybe that is something good in his bad fortune. He has potential to make up for it.

 

[fuiers]

Van Aert gonna challenge Sagan and Bennet for the green jersey soon.

 

[Broccolidwarf]

I don't understand you. You are asking to send back all riders to save Plan B while leaving plan A alone??? while is visibly impossible to reach the front group so you are going to waste energy anyway.
Is there something that I am missing?

What is Kwiatkowski going to do for Bernal, if Bernal has a technical? - They will both end up with Carapaz anyway in that instance.

At that point in the race, Bernal doesn't need a helper for anything, but Carapaz does.

 

[Leinster]

So Sagan was done in.

Did he even contest the sprint?

 

[JosephK]

Carapaz also lost 1:21. For Pogacar, it could have been worse.

 

[Big Doopie]

He's a TT rider sitting in the wheels on a flat day. See how he looks this time tomorrow.

...and that is why i qualified with: "of course i am looking thru rose tinted glasses..."

 

[ppanther92]

What happened to Sagan after all that work?

Looked also like a mechanical issue, tbh.

 

[Red Rick]

This is the reason why they rested yesterday.

BTW, time differences much bigger today than if they had attacked yesterday. lol.

***.

Gaps much bigger today if they go hard yesterday.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Bennett will be relieved after that.

 

[F_Cance]

Alaphpiti shouldn't contest bunch sprints. Dude doesn't know how to ride them

 

[TomLPC]

Alaphilippe waving his hands around like an idiot and swerving around whilst people around him are sprinting, what a tool
