Tour de France Tour de France 2021, Stage 5: Changé – Laval Espace Mayenne, 27.2 km (ITT)

It was Vingegaard.
Unless he's Roglic know.

Vingegaard's new nickname has to be "Everyman" by now

 

[Carols]

Roglic not bad, not great.

Good for his physical injuries IMO.

 

[topt]

Roglic not bad, not great.

he is faster than Porte being banged up, I think this is very good

 

[Netserk]

Roglic not bad, not great.

If fully healthy, he would certainly beat his teammate, so it's clear that his GC is over.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

I think, Pogacar would have to strap his bike onto the roof of the UAE car to take 90 seconds out of Roglic today.

 

[Carols]

Where is Nibali, haven't seen or heard a word on his ride.

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Actually meant as a joke. Lately 1984's popularity has made a bit of a comeback leading to people who got stupid stuff deleted on forums or (mostly) social media angrily and seriously commenting "this is literally 1984". My comment was meant as a joke since comparing North Korean censorship to getting *** jokes deleted has kind of the same energy.

I suppose my thought process was a bit too meta though.

Yeah buddy, you are just too bright for all of us.

It's a cross you will have to bear, for the rest of your life

Roglic not bad, not great.

Well, can't see healthy Pogi doing much better than that

 

[Red Rick]

If fully healthy, he would certainly beat his teammate, so it's clear that his GC is over.

Still has a few days to recover before the mountains.

 

[spalco]

Good for his physical injuries IMO.

Absolutely, I meant it in general.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Thomas doing the opposite of his Dauphiné TT.

 

[Tim Cahill]

If Ineos are still serious about that two leader strategy, we might be treated to a lesser seen Geriant Thomas long range mountain attack.

 

[BlueRoads]

Lol, Küng's look.

 

[Rollthedice]

Where is Nibali, haven't seen or heard a word on his ride.

3 sec slower than Thomas first time check which means not quite good.

 

[RedheadDane]

Lol, Küng's look.

 

[Carols]

Pogi on the road!

 

[limak_]

Looking at Pogi in all white TT suit makes me kinda frightened

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Are there any "climby" TTs at the Vuelta?

Could get interesting with Vingegaard (who will surely get a shot at riding TT there).

 

[Mayomaniac]

Lutsenko less than 2sec behind Vingegaard at the first time check, 4th time.

 

[lenric]

how did froome do? closer than 3 minutes to kung?

 

[ppanther92]

how did froome do? closer than 3 minutes to kung?

Obviously

 

[Eclipse]

Thought Lutsenko might go strongly but didn't expect him to go this strongly.

 

[Tim Cahill]

how did froome do? closer than 3 minutes to kung?

4 minutes down

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Vingegaard exit interview:

"The shape is good, I was good at staying in the TT position today. I had not expected a top result. I'm pretty happy beating the Danish TT champion.
I am not riding GC, I am only here for Primoz, but I go full gas on TTs, because it is good training for the future".

It's a rolling ITT.

over 1 min off the pace at the latest intermediate
