Tour de France Tour de France 2022: Stage 14 (Saint-Étienne – Mende, 192.5k)

Is it possible they still have another 7km to go, or is Phil full of it again?

What did he say?

State of this Fisherman

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Vingegard is able to do what no mortal has done before, stick to Pog's wheel on any climb, anytime. Tour was lost and won on Granon.

Pogacar will have to go full Heras on a descent the way this is going.

 

[GroupDK]

Wow, well done Jonas.. gluing like that to Pogacar going all out... impressive.

 

[woodburn]

Pogacar can't resist meaningless sprint at end.

 

[tobydawq]

Hmm, Jumbo...

Not too comfortable there.

 

[KZD]

I am starting to think that Pogačar will need to do a crazy descent attack in the Pyrenees because uphill unless Vingegård has a bad day, he has no chance

 

[super_domestique]

V is like a fly on dogshit.

 

[Izzyeviel]

Loving the yellow brick road! any idea what its about?

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Fun stage and fun finish this one was.

Do we remember something like this done by Pog before?

 

[ashhutch1997]

I would be worried about Jumbo, Pogacar with his 'weak' team out numbered them 3 to 1 when it really mattered

 

[Orbit501]

Heroic win from Bling. Well deserved.

Chapeau!

 

[JosefK]

Pogacar can't resist meaningless sprint at end.

Not completely meaningless, maybe, as he did put about 16 seconds into Thomas.

 

[super_domestique]

And I miss Kwiato....

Looks great but would be hazardous if it rained.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Loving the yellow brick road! any idea what its about?

It was an attempt to confuse Vingegaard, but he had his eyes on Pog the whole time and didn't fall in to the trap.

 

[Armchair Cyclist]

Loving the yellow brick road! any idea what its about?

Apparently the colour has some traditional association with the Tour de France.

 

[Andy262]

Gaudu's beginning to remind of Froome at this Tour. What's the French for yo-yo?

Yeau yeau

When you have Chicken 2.0 in your team it doesn't matter.

Stage

GC

Meintjes now included!

 

[JosefK]

Fun stage. Matthews and Bettiol made it so for the win, and Pogi/Vinegar made the GC fight somewhat interesting, too.

 

[Red Rick]

Honestly, best win of Matthews career.

Pogacar vs Vingegaard exactly as predicted. Jumbo didn't look great, but that's their thing in the medium mountains, where Kuss and Kruijswijk have a tendency to explode. Roglic going backwards is bad news.

 

[Jungle Cycle]

Bling was awesome!! chapeau!!

back in the GC battle this was fun...

Do we remember something like this done by Pog before?

No, but he showed good descending abilities in some of his previous raids, I think that he needs to think creatively because uphill it doesn't look like he will drop Jonas or at least gain the time needed to have a shot in the TT
