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

Gall riding Hindley into yellow here. Perfect dom, I'd imagine Gall for the stage now if he can give a long pull.

 

[RobertCrawley]

The TT will be enough

Peak Jai Hindley did a respectable time trial in the 2022 Giro when he won.

 

[titan31]

Ya, both should work together here and it's an easy split.

 

[Ripper]

Rabofail incoming or did they ask WVA to sit up and wait for Jonas? Giving Hindley this much time is crazy

WvA either blew massively or was asked to come back asap. Fireworks could ensue. Should be interesting

 

[Salvarani]

Ciccone and them not too far behind

 

[Lequack]

Hindley actually gaining time now. This is Carapaz at the Giro vs Roglic/Nibali, all over again. Except Carapaz didn't win a GT before that, whilst Hindley did.

 

[Valv.Piti]

Buchman lmao, what is he doing man.

Peak Jai Hindley looks pretty comfortable at the moment.

Also this TT has a climb in it

 

[Eddy Evenepoel]

Buchman lmao, what is he doing man.

He’s going for 2nd in GC!

 

[Gigs_98]

Majka slowing down can only mean Jumbo should absolutely drill it.

 

[Peyroteo94]

Vingegaard looks too easy.

 

[Lequack]

It is stage 5...

And the Tour is over.

 

[Salvarani]

And the Tour is over.

Turn off the TV.

 

[Valv.Piti]

UAE slowing?

 

[Mayomaniac]

Buchman lmao, what is he doing man.

riding for the gc himself, at least so it seem.

 

[Poursuivant]

ES finally questioning why JV have done nothing.

 

[Gigs_98]

The big problem for Hindley is that in this constellation Gall might take pulls on the flat.

 

[StryderHells]

And the Tour is over.

How is it over?

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Bernal apparently dropping, not that we get to see it.

 

[Unterlenkerfahrend]

lmao of course Kuss appears

 

[Salvarani]

Kuss on the front.

 

[RobertCrawley]

Bernal apparently dropping, not that we get to see it.

That's tough. Sad to hear.

 

[Salvarani]

Very small GC-group!
