Tour de France Tour De France 2021, stage 1 (Brest-Landerneau, 197.8 km)

[spalco]

Biggest moment in Alaphilippe's career. Winning stage 1 of the Tour in the rainbow jersey. It doesn't get bigger than that.

Winning stage 21 in the yellow jersey would be pretty big.

 

[Barnacle Bill]

Pog and Rog gave it a go for a while there but couldn't get near him

 

[huangho]

Mayhem....

 

[Mayomaniac]

Rabofail right there, Wout should have pulled with all his might for Roglic once Ala attacked. Roglic prefered to hold hands with Pogi and of course MAL and Porte lost time today...

Seriously sad how this stage went, but that win from Alaphilippe was incredible. Of course he profited from the small peloton but he was far and beyond the strongest.

Maybe that rainbow jersey itself was a little bit bigger?
Sweet sweet victory nevertheless!

 

[perico]

Superman and Porte both at least 2 minutes down.

Fun enough end but the crashes have ruined the stage and looks like it's fecked some top 5/10 GC guys too for the race.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Dawg made it!!!

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Shouldn't he be warming down
after that?

 

[The pet snake of Froome]

Froome is back on the bike

 

[topt]

Pog and Rog gave it a go for a while there but couldn't get near him

I dont think that was the reason; Pog didnt want to pull Roglic all the way and Rogla didnt want to do a pull

 

[Hayabusa]

Good to see Froome is on his bike and riding atleast. Suspect we won't know the true extent of the damage to everyone until tomorrow.

 

[Gigs_98]

Which of the potential Ineos leaders finished in the first group?

 

[Escarabajo]

Lopez continues his streak of bad positioning!!

Chapeau Ala!! what a valiant effort!

 

[JosefK]

Did Tony Martin make it back?

 

[Savant12]

Froome really wants to do his part in this Tour. Good on him!

 

[Tim Cahill]

Which of the potential Ineos leaders finished in the first group?

GT and Carapaz i saw

 

[ppanther92]

Froome is back on the bike

Well but that doesn't look great at all. Can't even ride straight...

 

[Nin1388]

Which of the potential Ineos leaders finished in the first group?

Thomas, Tao and Carapaz

 

[topt]

where is the Ineos "machine"

 

[Carrick-On-Seine]

Seriously sad how this stage went, but that win from Alaphilippe was incredible. Of course he profited from the small peloton but he was far and beyond the strongest.

He would have been delivered to the bottom of the climb by his team and who was missing from the reduced peloton who could have beaten him?
He minced WVA, vdP, Roglic, all of them.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Jack Haig clearly didn't want to show his real power there

But what ride by Alaphilippe!

 

[IndianCyclist]

Perfect By DSQ and excellent anticipation by JA

 

[ppanther92]

Thomas, Tao and Carapaz

Thomas finished in the group, Carapaz got dropped in the sprint.

Almost certainly DNS tomorrow imo.
