Tour de France Tour de France 2022: Stage 1 (Copenhagen – Copenhagen, 13.2k/ITT)

[TourOfSardinia]

Pog not wanting to take yellow so early.

 

[Red Rick]

Pog remains a glorified luck merchant.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Pogacar was clever and made sure JV will have to work over the next few days.

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Pogacar some seconds behind. Won't win today.

It was close though

 

[BigCoward]

Pog still the best of the GC guys...

Froome hasn't started yet has he?

 

[JosefK]

Bag is full. No vacancy.

 

[Savant12]

Nothing wrong with WVA's knee after all. Big surprise!

 

[johnymax]

Asgreen has this

 

[Red Rick]

Anyone who could win this if it dries up a lot?

 

[roundabout]

Oh no. Carlton.

Michael Scott gif here.

 

[Libertine Seguros]

It's never bad to win a stage at the Tour, but from a tactical perspective it sucks for Jumbo to have the responsibility of the maillot jaune while their GC riders are behind Tadej in the standings.

 

[Cassirer]

Pog, how? Looked somewhere between careful and chilling, beating them all except wout...

 

[70kmph]

Ganna is fail

 

[Salvarani]

Asgreen... good conditions for him.

 

[Unterlenkerfahrend]

Yikes, I was hoping Roglic to take 10 seconds on Pog, now its the other way around haha.

I do wonder if the conditions while being more wet for the later starters were actually better due to the wind in the second part? Everyone, from Thomas to Vingegaard to Ganna, WVA and Pogacar seemed to be better on the second half.

Every statue is better than the Little Mermaid.

Well, except Manneken Pis, but technically that's a fountain and not a statue.

This one is also a fountain tbf. Between that, the Church there and Kastellet itself it's a very pretty area.

 

[Gigs_98]

Ah the times when I confidently claimed Pogacar can't become a gt dominator because he can't TT.

 

[gregrowlerson]

In a matter of 2 minutes, Van der Poel gets kicked off the podium.

Red Rick's prediction could still end up correct.

 

[Carrick-On-Seine]

Oh no. Carlton.

Michael Scott gif here.

"It's like turning up at a BBQ and all the sausages have gone'

 

[Salvarani]

Maybe Van Aert or Pog.

 

[GroupDK]

dang Van Aert in a nutshell..
Jumbo Visma is hardcore.

 

[Volderke]

Anyone who could win this if it dries up a lot?

Bonifazio.

[Bonimenier]

What a ridiculous top 7 at the finish for now.

 

[glassmoon]

Kasper to save the day for the Danes!

 

[JosefK]

Pog will win this Tour by 5+ minutes. He'll ease off a bit in the final week to keep things from looking too ridiculous.
