Tour de France Tour de France 2023, stage 10: Vulcania - Issoire, 167.2k

[Devil's Elbow]

Aside from the Lafay stage win, this Tour could not be going worse for the French.

 

[DenisMenchov]

Must be some sort of heatstroke going around peleton. It happened to me once on a bike.

 

[JosefK]

Brutal "transition" day after the rest day. Chaos. ... What an amazing TDF.

 

[Salvarani]

Impressive from Van Baarle to ride this well. Just as good here as he was for Sky/Ineos.

 

[Didinho]

I’m repeating myself but it’s the best Tour I’ve seen.

 

[Valv.Piti]

There are some relatively cheap top-10 on offer this Tour.

I am gaining appreciation for Neilands, he seems to constantly be able to hit the right moves.

Poggio 2018 he was the right move. I have eternal gratitude

 

[Danskebjerge]

So mean to give your child a name that ends with -sts.

 

[Salvarani]

Some guys sprinted for no points lol

Or was it a 2nd?

No it said 3rd.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

This has happened to Bardet multiple times now??? Vomiting on a hot day on the bike??

 

[Poursuivant]

Second peloton will come back eventually

 

[Peyroteo94]

Demare laughing pretty hard at home

 

[Didinho]

Julian descending!
Edit: and Mohoric!

 

[Salvarani]

Second peloton will come back eventually

Not many flat km at all today. They will have to slow down at some point though... or maybe they wont.

 

[SafeBet]

Alaphilippe looking lively for a change. French hope!

 

[Salvarani]

Ala and Mohoric!

 

[Boehmand]

Notice Vingegaard taking time on Pogacar on the descent, it will be interesting when we get to the real mountains.

 

[Salvarani]

Central massive stages raced like this could be harder than the mountain stages

 

[Rechtschreibfehler]

Mohoric using his automatic telescope saddle, or however you call that.

 

[Boehmand]

Central massive stages raced like this could be harder than the mountain stages

And it's 35 degrees today.

 

[dercuforever]

Half the peloton to be OTL.

 

[RobertCrawley]

And it's 35 degrees today.

Ouch.

 

[kingjr]

letour.fr says its 26.2°C for the leaders right now

 

[Salvarani]

Half the peloton to be OTL.

Ewan and Jakobsen might as well save themselves and abandon right now.

 

[Peyroteo94]

This type of stages always deliver. After a rest day, a stage with climbs almost from the start, it will always have madness in the first hour.
