Huge Laporte

To be honest if I wasn't a top gc favourite I would 100% try and go in the breakaway today. At worst you stay out of trouble

If I understand you correctly you do consider yourself a top GC favourite?

 

[Netserk]

Bora looking good.

 

[red_flanders]

Just woke up. How did WVA get at the back?

 

[ontheroad]

UAE are missing in action again today, Pogacar all on his own already.

 

[Bonimenier]

Just woke up. How did WVA get at the back?

He crashed and never made his way back up in the peloton

 

[glassmoon]

Sagan crashed in that corner...

 

[Tim Cahill]

What the hell is Bettiol doing drilling it

 

[Aimar16]

A rare mistake by Sagan

 

[skippo12]

Pog doing it all by himself.

 

[RobertCrawley]

Sagan might be done for the day.

 

[Didinho]

Pogi solo incoming

 

[Tricycle Rider]

And at last -the pave!

 

[Potomac]

What the hell is Bettiol doing drilling it

Yes, madness

 

[RobertCrawley]

Tadej is a boss.

 

[wheresmybrakes]

Pog.....who needs a team!

 

[Tim Cahill]

Have UAE paid him off there or something

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Lol Bettiol chasing his gc rider

 

[ppanther92]

What the hell is Bettiol doing drilling it

Deal with UAE since they saw their riders are useless anyway

 

[Bonimenier]

Can't say I expected Pedersen to go so soon

 

[johnymax]

I really like Robbie McEwen as a commentator on Eurosport.

 

[Krzysztof_O]

UAE sucks but Teddy is strong. The best defence is attack. Maybe time to drop a watt bomb to eliminate skinny Vinge on the cobbles?

 

[noob]

Who was even surprised to see Pog that far to the front? Not me.

 

[Pirazziattacks]

That's really early for Pedersen to go. It could work though, most of the stronger teams will be at least partly focussed on the GC battle instead of the stage win.

 

[Bonimenier]

Was that Martinez or Castro at the side of the road?
