Tour de France Tour de France 2023, stage 20: Belfort - Le Markstein, 133.5k

What do you want them to do, just throw away his GC he fought for 3 weeks?

Need to be better rules about it. Concussion protocol --> possibiliy to be brought back behind the car or something.

yeah... than he'll crash on the next downhill because he can't see/think straight and kills himself... no proper conc rules until then I guess.

 

[Red Rick]

Barguils is gonna finish 10 minutes down today whether Vingegaard is there or not

 

[titan31]

Abandoning on the last racing day would be cruel

 

[Netserk]

He is a threat for the stage though.

That’s not the reason for Wawa’s gesture.

 

[JosefK]

Poor Sepp. Two hard crashes, now. You know he wants to finish this Tour. Also, a top 10 as a by product of his great support for Vingo.

 

[dobrien]

He is a threat for the stage though.

Totally; he's getting an armchair ride right now while most of his main threats are under pressure.

 

[Eyeballs Out]

Barguil is the true patron

 

[ChewbaccaDefense]

In boxing, that cut might get you a TKO.

 

[Didinho]

Uno-X team attack!

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Estamos en la fuga !!!!!!!

 

[KOM]

Barguil is right, that ITT or whatever enabled it is getting to Vingegaards head imo. Seems to have hit peak arrogance ever since. Seemed quite likeable albeit boring before

 

[HelloDolly]

Rule #1: you never follow Vingo downhill. He takes 5sec every corner. Fall was inevitable for C.Rod.

And yet Vingegaard hardly ever crashes (mostly) and made up seconds on Pog in the corners on the TT ???

 

[ChewbaccaDefense]

Pidcock in the front...stage win possible if he remains.

 

[Red Rick]

UAE may find out their team is a bit too *** to control this stage very well

 

[Tim Cahill]

UNO-X have the Norwegian version of Chente in the car clearly given the tactic

 

[Volderke]

Kuss looks like a mummy.

 

[Samamba]

yeah... than he'll crash on the next downhill because he can't see/think straight and kills himself... no proper conc rules until then I guess.

Like I said, concussion protocol is a good thing, if you find a way to actually negate the timethey loose doing it. Noone is going to give up a GC position in the last stage for it. Obviously they'll take the risk.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Vingo sat up?

I'm not sure it's arrogance to think you're the strontest rider, when you are clearly the strongest rider.

 

[bob.a.feet]

That’s not the reason for Wawa’s gesture.

What was Wawa's gesture? (I'm on ITV where they have ad breaks every 10 minutes)

 

[Netserk]

Wawa was only in a group with a gap because of the crash. It wasn’t an attack where he was marked by Vingegaard.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Kuss is just a huge Laurens ten Dam fan, a stirring tribute to the man himself on the final day.

 

[dazaau]

UAE have got everyone close enough they should take over now surely

 

[RobertCrawley]

Vingo sat up?

Just staying safe on Van Baarle's wheel all day. The only way he loses the Tour is to break a collarbone.

Kuss & Rodriguez look like they've been in the ring with Mike Tyson - not good.
