Tour de France Tour de France 2022: Stage 11 (Albertville – Col du Granon Serre Chevalier, 151.7k)

[Netserk]

Weak not to give it a go. It was a free shot.

And then there were two.

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Don't understand these tactics. Vingegaard should have attacked 500m from the top, and there Van Aert should have waited for the descent and the valley.

Still a minute ahead

I thought that was the plan too.

 

[ontheroad]

Pog took everything JV threw at him and swatted them away like flies.

 

[skippo12]

With Wout's help, Pogacar and Vingegaard should be able to distance everyone else by, possibly, minutes.

Doesn´t really matter at this point. Everyone knows who the two strongest riders are. Might be in the interest of JV to keep at least some kind of threat alife. Otherwise Pog will just follow VIngegaards wheel for the rest of the race.

 

[roundabout]

Quintana Kruijswijk `+25
Yates +35
Kuss +45
Lutsenko +55
Gaudu Majka Roglic Vlasov etc +1'50

 

[Sciatic]

Funny they label that FDG-led group of 6 the “peloton”

 

[Riek s]

pog riding tempo and only vingegaard can follow (apparently not attack which we would have expected him to try..). Doesn't look like Pog is really pushing it either....

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Pidcock actually better than Mas and Vlasov.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Pinot must wish FDJ had this level of support when he was the leader.

 

[Rollthedice]

Don't understand these tactics. Vingegaard should have attacked 500m from the top, and there Van Aert should have waited for the descent and the valley.

It's not yet clear that he can't drop Pog?

 

[Lequack]

Roglic and the FJ boys are 2 minutes behind already.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Not even Masnada can drop Poagacar in Bergamo. So not sure about Vingegaard who was dropped in that race like everyone else

Yes but Wout had to pee, and that takes priority

 

[Volderke]

It's WvA's time now.
Curious how they will try to put pressure on Pogacar, if that's possible.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Pidcock actually better than Mas and Vlasov.

Vlasov is in the Gaudu-Roglic group.

 

[RobertCrawley]

Pidcock actually better than Mas and Vlasov.

Sad about Enric Mas. I hoped he would have a good day today.

 

[tobydawq]

Why are they showing a stage from the 1990's today?

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Where's Froomey today?

 

[ashhutch1997]

This really reminds me of Andy Schleck Vs Contador on the Madeleine in 2010

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

It's not yet clear that he can't drop Pog?

He only needs 20 meters. He had 20 meters half an hour ago, just nobody in front of him who could pull like Van Aert.

 

[MartinGT]

Don't understand these tactics. Vingegaard should have attacked 500m from the top, and there Van Aert should have waited for the descent and the valley.

To be fair, I think the pace put by Pog was pretty high and he couldnt

 

[dgodave]

People....this descent.. I'm scared!
