Tour de France 2020 | Stage 8 (Gazeres-sur-Geronne - Loudenvielle

[Cance > TheRest]

Tyler Hamilton jam dropped by his own team

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Kuss has always been inconsistent.

 

[fuiers]

They could drop him for the be fresh on the upcoming weeks.

 

[Red Rick]

Kuss doesn't see the point, no steep MTF

 

[johnymax]

Kuss...attrition from yesterday's stage. Stupid Jumbo Visma SD should had told him to take it easy yesterday.

 

[JosephK]

Kuss on a bad day. . . . He did crash a couple days ago. One never knows how that will go.

 

[Broccolidwarf]

You people are weird

A GC rider is injured in a crash, and your reaction is he has must have a mental problem

 

[bob.a.feet]

Kuss is gone. Final climb will be harder to control for Jumbo now.

 

[roundabout]

I hate saying this but if you always have some kind of physical issue you're probably not built for GTs.
Nothing wrong with that.

Not if it was plain dumv luck with a crash. If he was getting 3 hours physiotherapy a day and did not lose time to the rest until today, I would say he is plenty tough enough

 

[Luthor]

Kuss dropped. Here is the answer why JV didn't do anything in stage 6. As i said the crash affected him but everyone started to attack him. Obv he isn't feeling well since the crash.

 

[huangho]

Well, that was weird, I wasn't expecting Kuss to get dropped this soon!

 

[jflemaire]

Spare a thought for Madiot.

I won't spare a thought for that lunatic.

 

[Salvarani]

It doesnt really look like Groupama are in panic or surprised. He most likely been hurting for days

 

[Rollthedice]

Give Aru another million to hit the front now.

 

[broppo]

Dumb post

*** post

 

[ice&fire]

Kuss might just be Jumbo's Poels

 

[Red Rick]

I think think he might have high muscle/tendon tension or something which could make him a little more susceptible to injury, but that's it.

I think Pinot would've been so much better off in a big team.

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Yes. Another rider falling in front of you makes one not a GT rider.

But it's not that someone crashes in front of you. It's that you crack because of it. Whether it's mentally or physically that he can't cope with crashes I don't know, but he's simply too fragile to content for three weeks.

 

[Big Doopie]

dont use dumo. let him ride his own race.

 

[Big Doopie]

adam yates looks pretty easy.

 

[SafeBet]

Zakarin/Peters have 42 seconds over the group behind.

 

[Eddy Evenepoel]

 

[ngent41]

which descent is zakarin going to crash on?

 

[TomLPC]

Zakarin dropped on the descent.

 

[roundabout]

dont use dumo. let him ride his own race.

3 doms should just about be enough for the rest of the stage

Edit: looks like down to 2 now, hmm
