Tour de France Tour de France 2022: Stage 9 (Aigle – Châtel Les Portes du Soleil, 192.9k)

[noob]

Pinot going better up than straight. So the minute it's up again it's better.

 

[Netserk]

The Spanish duo will catch Pinot.

 

[Breezy1985]

Tibo needs Marc to come swinging out the side of a car about now

 

[Potomac]

UAE is just too strong

 

[Red Rick]

Motors could easily be deciding the winner today

 

[Filippo_3467]

I mean, he had COVID and a crash. So not at all a good preperation. But I am also wondering if he will ever be among the best over multiple high mountain stages. So far he rather shines when its punchy.

"punchy"

I agree with you on average, but of course Vlasov could be a future GT podium finisher. He was already 4th in the Giro so what are we talking about here. The crash and covid took of his edge. But also the Tour is still long and he could climb later in the tour in the standings if the crash is the problem atm.

 

[Bonimenier]

Odds on jury giving Pinot combativity award over Jungels?

 

[Tim Cahill]

UAE should've pulled the pin and ridden it in 50km ago, don't think Bob Jungles is much of a GC threat

 

[RobertCrawley]

UAE is just too strong

They look really good today.

 

[HelloDolly]

I'm pretty sure Mumbo Jumbo has not allowed Vinegar to face a puff of unnecessary headwind this entire Tour. They are a professional bike team and they know how to take care of their GC leader.

As others have said, the Tour is won in the big hills. We might learn a lot tomorrow.

UAE is just too strong

They are in their backsides

have you seen many Jumbo are still there for all the good it si to them if they dont use it

 

[JosefK]

Ineos to win the stage?

 

[skippo12]

UAE is just too strong

They are soft pedaling. Not even gaining time on Jungels.

 

[perico]

Verona is such a strong rider

 

[KOM]

20 seconds wont be enough for the last 4km imo... GO TIBO

 

[JosefK]

Pog generous, today.

 

[Armchair Cyclist]

20 seconds wont be enough for the last 4km imo... GO TIBO

40 might: gps tricking with your mind

Or maybe not: tricking with all of us.

 

[perico]

I would hope Vlasov was able to get back on

 

[Armchair Cyclist]

I like Pinot, but c'mon Bob.

I am saying "have to be seen", so not saying its not going to happen. But 4th at Giro, yeah, well, different animal than the Tour. Nibali wouldn't be able to top 10 the TdF this year, yet was 4th at the Giro. Alos so far Vlasov's only GT GC result of note (obviously still very young).

 

[RobertCrawley]

Well done Geschke to win the polka dots.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

I think Pinot is killing himself and won't be able to gain anything uphill.

 

[Netserk]

It's done. Super nice victory for Jungels.

Counted 27 at 3 to go... thats too much

 

[Samamba]

Jungels got this

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Unless Bob completely implodes he's clear.
