Tour de France Tour de France 2023, stage 17: Saint-Gervais Mont Blanc - Courchevel, 165.7k

[Trofonios]

Can Hooydonck and Laporte follow this pace by van Baarle?

 

[Peyroteo94]

ouch, fall looked painful for teddy in that replay

He is already with his mouth open, that means he is not good today

 

[Danskebjerge]

The team radio snippets sound like something that is read aloud from a piece of paper.

 

[Andy schleck]

Van Baarle pushing this early? Not happy with Majka up there?

The plan of jumbo in this tour is clear. Make the race hard everyday to cause fatigue to everybody, and it's been working. They believe Vingegaard recovers better.

 

[T-Nielsen]

I am a simpel man.

The cameras find a cow, the producers play the "Mooooh" sound and I lol.

 

[RedheadDane]

Latour needs to catch up with the group before the top, or else he'll be right back in the peloton.
He might be anyway.

Poor Latour, I hope his descending get's back to normal again.

Or a Netflix script

Just bit curious they use van Baarle this early. Thought they would use Laporte and Hooydonck first.

I think they just uses whomever is there after a hectic start, gain control, stop the attacks going and maybe slowly reduce speed to get your team back up and then stat using Laporte and Hooydonck.

Voigt thinks Pidcock is out of the peloton, is that true`?

 

[Didinho]

Belgian commentator thinking they will hold it close so Wout can get the KOM jersey.
I want what they’re smoking. And I’ve never smoked in my life.

 

[RedheadDane]

Jumbo, just let the break go.

Given how strange their tactics are, maybe they're hitting the bong before the team meeting.

Would be a mad idea, I'd like to see it.

Voigt thinks Pidcock is out of the peloton, is that true`?

Yeah, he is about 50 sec behind

 

[Aimar16]

Dropped a long time ago

Benoot already now. Maybe they’re launching Wout and/or Vingo.

 

[dazaau]

Pogs fall does not look that minor.

 

[wansteadimp]

Who exactly, and why would that be cool?

Reynard - i asked a qu and got the same three answers straight away - just wanted to check it was legit

 

[Rechtschreibfehler]

What is happening? Jumbo preparing Pogacar launch from far away?

 

[Eclipse]

Jumbo just team trialling to drop the whole peloton by accident

 

[DNP-Old]

What the hell am I watching

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Jumbo are doing the exact same thing that backfired on them in the Cauterets stage...
