Tour de France Tour de France 2023, stage 15: Les Gets - Saint-Gervais Mont Blanc, 179.0k

what a waste of weekend stages... but TT will be interesting at least

 

[StryderHells]

Vingegaard is a coward. Go ffs

Your definition of a coward is holding his jersey and beating his rival to the line?

 

[DrSahl]

Don't think he leaves the gaps intentionally to Rodriguez/Vingegaard. But good for Pogacar - Vingegaard also looks tired. But later should still go for it. Pogacar clearly struggling.

Pogacar looked worse today indeed. I expected him to gab Vingegaard a bit, but he did well today to close the attacks

 

[Warhawk]

TBH all Jonas would have accomplished by attacking before was probably to pull Pog up to Pog's teammates instead of forcing Pog to do it himself.

equals pequals

 

[saunaking]

Damn, and I thought the Giro camerawork was bad.

? Camera was great. What are you complaining about.
we saw all the GC action

 

[ppanther92]

Ok, Vingegaard anyway leads but today he could have distanced Pogacar. I am absolutely sure.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Vingo hanging comfortably with Pog, both richly deserve tomorrow's rest day.

 

[dobrien]

Jonas in the saddle for almost all of that; tied at the finish but psychological win goes to Jonas today. On the other hand, his team wasn't in it at the end at all. Fascinating stuff. After today I think we're even more in the dark. Unreal.

 

[D. Pecher]

Pogacar had nothing today. Even his attack lacked his usual explosiveness. He was there for the taking today and Vingegaard didn't even bother

Vingegaard is the either the most cowardly yellow jerseys of all time or he simply hadn't much more left than Pogacar either

 

[ontheroad]

Vingegaard will be following Pogacar to bed tonight to tuck him in!

 

[StryderHells]

He had Pogacar today and didn't even bother til 20 metres before the line.

Did he? So you have a understanding of his legs?

 

[madthebad]

I hope Vingegaard loses this tour. No balls, what is that attidude?

 

[HelloDolly]

Pog is a better bike rider than he is a poker player

But he is beginning to look desperate ...Vingegaard is trolling him

3rd week is where its at

Only because there was only a kilometre of it.

 

[meat puppet]

TBH all Jonas would have accomplished by attacking before was probably to pull Pog up to Pog's teammates instead of forcing Pog to do it himself.

In hindsight, yes.

But let's say he goes longer, say 4-5ks out.

 

[bigcog]

Vinnegard has to be the most boring GC racer ever along with Indurain

 

[StryderHells]

If they’re both into it who cares?!

If you're stronger, use it, cos you might not be the next day. Think they would have learned after Roglic losing it in the TT after riding defensively all Your.

 

[Aristarchus]

I have no idea what that was. If Vingegaard had the legs to attack and didn't, he blew it. But maybe both just didn't have it today?

 

[Simurgh]

That was very much a wasted opportunity by Vingegård. The attack by Pog looked devoid of power unlike Puy de Dome or yesterday.

 

[Bolder]

Holy ***, I think Vingegaard missed a shot for open goal here.

He should have gone with Yates, but I suspect he thought that was a bluff to draw him out...

 

[The Clogger]

Vinge with the mental game on the line.

These 2 guys are on the same level. There is nothing between them.

This was a Pogacar climb, but Vingegaard kept his wheel sitting down. Looking good before the TT and especially La Loze, where the tour will be decided

 

[StryderHells]

Vinnegard has to be the most boring GC racer ever along with Indurain

So you didn’t watch Wiggins and Froome/TheSkyTrain?

 

[Red Rick]

Obviously it's Vingegaard who's the boring rider now.
