Tour de France Tour de France 2021, Stage 11: Sorgues – Malaucène, 198.9 km

[Red Rick]

It's not like the peloton is in first gear here. I don't think 10 GC guys are gonna climb Ventoux faster than Van Aert today

 

[trevim]

How can someone not be rooting for the belgian Cândido Barbosa?

 

[Mayomaniac]

Less puctures of Voeckler jr and more of the guys who are just behind Wout.

 

[SafeBet]

Ineos tactics not looking that stupid right now.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

That's way early for O'Connor to drop.

Was just saying this, the GC group is down to single guys plus 2 Ineos doms and they aren’t closing at all. Crazily strong.

 

[Rollthedice]

The level of a huge number of top climbers slash GC guys is appalling in this Tour.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

O O O O oh Connor

 

[Samu Cuenca]

BOC no match for Pog.

 

[dgodave]

Colbrelli's pulled in front but there are a few groups behind still too.

The Colbra!

Is it me or does WVA just look a bit fat in those shots there

Not fatter than usual imo. (Not that I think he's fat by any means, it's just his body type, he will never look like his Dutch namesake)

My hometown was even named after Candido Barbosa.

 

[AICA ribonucleotide]

Carapaz will end up being dropped

 

[Devil's Elbow]

The level of a huge number of top climbers slash GC guys is appalling in this Tour.

This Tour in general has the lowest average standard in forever. A select few guys going insane and then almost everyone else below their usual level.

 

[Bolder]

O'Connor needs to dig deep right now

 

[Red Rick]

Van Aert is almost done with the hardest section

 

[F_Cance]

80kg climbers are back

 

[Tim Cahill]

Just needs to do a Vuelta-Froome instead of trying to hang on

 

[Pricey_sky]

Carapaz will end up being dropped

Stands a chance but I’d rather they do it this way an whittle down a few challengers than being too aggressive and waste energy like last week.

Based on 2 days of atrocious weather. Let's wait until we get the climbing times of today and the Pyrenees

 

[limak_]

Well, seems like Ineos' tactics today was not that bad in the end. They're eliminating 2nd spot contenders one by one and this was there goal probably.

 

[70kmph]

Ben needs open a suitcase of courage

 

[Unterlenkerfahrend]

I mean, everyone is right to complain about Pogacars GC gap but I'm seeing this Ineos train dropping the majority of contenders and their domestiques and the alternative doesn't seem too great either.

Wonder can Woods hang on here cos there's KOM points here for him if so. Might move into polka dots here
