Tour de France Tour de France 2022: Stage 13 (Le Bourg d’Oisans – Saint-Étienne, 193.6k)

Pedersen!

Great to see the breakaway guys congratulate each other, it looked like they just went on a fun ride and one of them happened to win it.

Hugo Houle riding for a trek contract for 2023

 

[carton]

Good win by Petersen, but is Houle going to Trek? Or what was that?

 

[GroupDK]

wow.. that was solid... well done, but he also made the move that took away the biggest sprint competitors ..

 

[spalco]

when you are understood by everyone to be the fastest in a six man break it is very hard to win!

That's true.

I thought you were referring to the finish specifically.

 

[ontheroad]

Its another Danish show.

 

[Finn84]

Danish have now three stage winners, previously done only in 1994 (Hamburger, Riis, Sørensen)

 

[movingtarget]

Too easy for Pedersen. Curious tactics once again from BEX. Trying to chase down the break with three men expecting to make up 4 minutes in 40 kms does not compute. If they had chased earlier with Quickstep it might have happened.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Groenewegen and Philipsen not even bothering with the sprint for seventh after all the effort their teammates put in?

 

[Gigs_98]

Great to see the break beat the sprinter teams. Always makes me happy

 

[Danskebjerge]

First Tour with three Danish stage winners since 1994 (if doping victories count, otherwise it was zero).

If Caleb Ewan hadn't rolled snake eyes, Lotto would have helped and maybe made things dicey for the breakaway. It was a good bet by Trek to use Q Simmons to get Pedersen across.

Seems like that last hill might have sorted Ewan out anyway but then he did crash before that...........

Pogačar going for second in the points classification

 

[Danskebjerge]

Wright is a cool guy.

Philipsen finished 4 minutes behind that group

 

[movingtarget]

If you see a Lotto rider on the ground at the moment you pretty much know its going to be Ewan.

 

[Zoetemelk-fan]

Have watched zero of the stage, except for now Mads Pedersen being interviewed on national broadcasting.
Finally weekend. Have to catch up on remaining 80k of stage 11 - and full 13 activities, but my wife's birthday today, now celebrating. Sleep must wait, yet another time..

 

[Danskebjerge]

It's actually been a bad year for Danish cycling - until now.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Philipsen finished 4 minutes behind that group

Philipsen was still there when BEX started pulling, no? If so he will have let go on the final little hill.

 

[yaco]

It's been a tough TDF which makes me suspect some riders will struggle for the rest of the season.

 

[Gigs_98]

Honestly don't know what to think about new cycling nations like Denmark overshadowing the more traditional ones like Slovenia...

 

[staubsauger]

Pedersen with the Kirsipuu move, killing the big locomotives by attacking himself. Hats off!

 

[GroupDK]

The second biggest achievement in Mads Pedersen carrier.. only topped by the world champion title in 2019.
quite unreal 3 danish stage-win with three different riders in only 4 days.

 

[Orbit501]

Matt White apparently said Bex didn't pull earlier because it would have looked like they were attacking the Ewan crash.

Yeah, right!
Pull the other one, it's got bells on.
