Tour de France Tour de France 2022: Stage 16 (Carcassonne – Foix, 178.5k)

[Devil's Elbow]

Gaudu stuck in no man's land. Awful day for the French in perhaps their worst Tour.

 

[AlfaLum]

Gaudu riding in no-mans land if he doesn’t get back in the descent.

Storer and Madouas not riding for the stage anymore. Only riders with a GC captain that are not dropping back..

 

[Peyroteo94]

Jumbo rode perfectly and they are going to win this easily. Pogi defeated by his own ego.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

FdJ are in a horrible position now. They should have stopped Madouas and/or Storer at the top.

 

[Andy262]

Told you guys. I think the pace was genuinely too high for Pog to attack, didn't look too comfortable.

Love your description of Kuss, it's bang on.

They played it really well today. Still more scary downhill to navigate.

Did someone forget to tell them that the top was the waiting room?

 

[roundabout]

Ouch. Paunful fall for Jorgensen

 

[Salvarani]

Jumbo rode perfectly and they are going to win this easily. Pogi defeated by his own ego.

How was he defeated by his ego?

Storer and Madouas not riding for the stage anymore. Only riders with a GC captain that are not dropping back..

Ironically FDJ were the only team to explicitly state pre-race that they were all-in for their GC leader.

Last time two Canadians were on a TdF stage podium? Has that ever happened?

 

[RedheadDane]

Jorgenson crashed...

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Woods -like crash for Jorgenson turns this into Canaday Day.

 

[Tim Cahill]

What on earth are FDJ doing, who cares about your 4th on the stage lads

 

[roundabout]

Canada 12 and bit kn away from an unlikely 1-2

Hell, Israel 12 km away from a 1-2

 

[Tinnekeisabella]

They played it really well today. Still more scary downhill to navigate.

Bur seeing Pogacar they dont have this in the bag,. Tomorrow and Thursday will be extremely hard and different.

 

[Movitrain]

Oh man, Jorgenson not quite catching the corner. Looks like he is okay, thankfully, but still a shame, he was still in striking distance.

 

[Salvarani]

Double win for Israel and Canada!

 

[Derjanse]

Gaudu stuck in no man's land. Awful day for the French in perhaps their worst Tour.

Clearly did not see the french from 2005 to 2015

 

[ashhutch1997]

WTF is going on, Israel potentially with a one two!?

 

[spalco]

Very unlucky. Didn't look like he did anything particularly wrong there.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Well, that's all tension in the stage gone, bit of a letdown after how good it was shaping up to be on Lers. Poor Jorgenson.

 

[roundabout]

Gaudu can make it, he is getting closer

 

[AlfaLum]

Ironically FDJ were the only team to explicitly state pre-race that they were all-in for their GC leader.

Yeah but French. They don’t understand how that works. But looks like Gaudu might make it back on his own. He is a really good descender.

 

[spalco]

Canadian 1-2 possible now. Impressive Tour for the much laughed at IPT also.
