Tour de France Tour de France 2023, stage 5: Pau - Laruns, 162.7k

[KenFiamingo]

Gall the new Reichenbach.

 

[Cagalitroso]

Has Vinegar already won le tour? I dont want that on my salad

 

[JosefK]

Gall getting nice motopacing.

 

[gregrowlerson]

Why aren't they calling this "Group Buchmann"?

 

[Nick2413]

Expected a 30 second gap but a minute is a bit of a surprise.

 

[Unterlenkerfahrend]

LMAO Vingegaard asking for help. Don't you guys dare and give him turns ffs.

 

[DrSahl]

Vingegaard will be in yellow after tomorrow. Tour is over unless he crashes

I disagree. You underestimate the other contenders and this is only stage 5. Hindley should not be dismissed either.

Inspirational words from Bora Team Radio ......Go, Go, Go said with about as much passion as a dying patient!

 

[MrTea1976]

Motor pacing for Vinge.

 

[skippo12]

Ciccone not working. TV moto: "I´ve got you"

 

[ManicJack]

MTB Kuss?

He's a great MTB rider

 

[RobertCrawley]

Jonas asking for help with the elbow flick but is denied.

 

[Unterlenkerfahrend]

CICCONE LEGEND HAHA. He's like "are you drunk mate?"

 

[Potomac]

yes that team radio is a joke feature

 

[Salvarani]

Would have been a good excuse to do the Vuelta, though. He will definitely try to complete the GT triple later in his career, why not start now?

Eh, the wrist was probably good enough to start and give it a try. Tour > Vuelta.

The wrist would have been very bad for them to make that decision.

Maybe he starts the Vuelta anyway. Depending on how he feels after the Tour now, if he completes it.

 

[tobydawq]

No drafting!

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Motor behind Pogacar and ahead of Vingegaard, as if the gap wasn't big enough.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Chickene pulling with Vingegaard

 

[dazaau]

Please no one help Jonas. Please give us at least that

 

[Pirazziattacks]

I'd like to remind the whole "Tour is over" crowd, that last year they also said the Tour was "over" during week 1 - expecting Pogacar to be the clear winner

That was all bonus seconds though. This is Pogacar being dropped hard after one attack.

 

[Peyroteo94]

I disagree. You underestimate the other contenders and this is only stage 5. Hindley should not be dismissed either.

You must be trolling. Tomorrow Vingegaard will cook Hindley

 

[JosefK]

Ciccone doesn't want a shot at stage win?

 

[skippo12]

Ciccone and Gall barely hanging on.

 

[bob.a.feet]

Do we think UAE tries anything tomorrow? Surely they can’t wait around to gain back time.

They might as well play the Yates card while they still can - come the third week I doubt Yates will be enough of a threat to be used tactically.

 

[Jumbo Visma Fan :)]

He's a great MTB rider

Yeah I knew that, but wasn’t expecting him to bike jump flying down a Pyrenean descent.
