Tour de France Tour de France 2023, stage 14: Annemasse - Morzine, 151.8k

[RobertCrawley]

Dutch TV reports that the cars saw oil on the road.

The Tour is usually really good at cleaning the roads before the riders arrive. Too bad they missed that one.

 

[Boehmand]

Skjelmose said ahead of the stage, that Ciccone would be going for polkadots today.

 

[Peyroteo94]

Kelderman said to be noticeably injured too.

He can't be out of trouble. He just can't.

 

[Boehmand]

Cort refusing to pull because Johannesen and Ciccone are there, the game is on for the polkadots.

 

[RobertCrawley]

I'd really like to see Sepptimus lead a team while he's in his Prime.

 

[Boehmand]

Wow, the first 100 are in single file, cool pictures

 

[Tim Cahill]

Wilco, Stevie, Big Tom, the Dutch just have absolutely no luck in this game

 

[Boehmand]

Skjelmose must have injured himself in the crash, he was at the front and poised to hit the break before, but is now nowhere to be seen.

 

[Boehmand]

Tour must be over for Petit

 

[titan31]

Oil on the road apparently.

Considering sport nowadays, could be intentional too

 

[Armchair Cyclist]

Long day ahead for a few of them carrying scrapes and cuts, unless they cut it short.

 

[Boehmand]

Martinez is a tough customer, he hit the deck hard in the crash and is now in the break

 

[Eclipse]

Chaves looks done.

Meanwhile Martinez attacking after looking like he couldn't stand up

 

[Rollthedice]

Chaves looks like he will rather go home.

 

[Potomac]

Yikes, Chavez

 

[titan31]

Poor Chavez

 

[Samamba]

Man this sucks, i was thinking yesterday that we didnt have a lot of DNFs yet but then we get this crash. Petit will folow soon probably, hopefully Van Gils gets through the day.

 

[Armchair Cyclist]

Does Martinez know he is in the break?

 

[Aimar16]

Does Martinez know he is in the break?

He sprinted for KOM points, so yes.

 

[Rollthedice]

Whatever Loulou is doing I can imagine Lefevere's disgusted face knowing exactly down to eurocents how much money he is paying him.

 

[RobertCrawley]

Watching these descents on damp roads scares the crap out of me.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

The Landis is starting

 

[DNP-Old]

Bardet crashed.

 

[bob.a.feet]

Considering sport nowadays, could be intentional too

Would be a bit counterintuitive for the Just Stop Oil crowd

 

[DNP-Old]

Entire DSM team waiting.
