Tour de France Tour de France 2023, stage 6: Tarbes - Cauterets-Cambasque, 144.9k

[Barnacle Bill]

Quite a stat that, fastest speed in the Tour so far.... Meintjes 105 kmh. Always was a daredevil.

 

[glassmoon]

WvA attacks from km 0

 

[RobertCrawley]

Of course Wout on the break!

 

[dobrien]

Well, if you were wondering how today was going to go, here's your answer.

 

[glassmoon]

Was obvious - he was in front row since the fake start

 

[Zoetemelk-fan]

Gregaard strong. Yesterday post race, he seemed like a guy just finished light sunday training.

 

[Unterlenkerfahrend]

WVA realizing you need to make good use of the motor if it offers to just roll 10m ahead of you.

 

[Salvarani]

Wout probably only races the first week, I guess.

 

[DNP-Old]

Van der Poel approaching?

 

[RobertCrawley]

I hope Powless makes the break.

 

[DNP-Old]

Van der Poel is there.

 

[Salvarani]

Coquard trying his luck today.

 

[Trofonios]

Love him or hate him - Wout in the tour is something incredible

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Another day another break

 

[glassmoon]

fuga bidone

 

[Tim Cahill]

Love Le Coq going in breaks on these mountain stages for green like Sagan used to have to.

 

[RedheadDane]

Double-Van in the break!

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Barely any climbers in this group, only if the peloton softpedals Tourmalet do they have a chance.

 

[KOM]

Aside from van Aert (for tactical implications) the break is kinda lackluster considering the stages profile. Coquard, Shaw, Arndt, vdP etc wont go anywhere on the tourmalet. Also Trentin isnt the guy id want in there if i was UAE

 

[Salvarani]

Moto awfully close to the front group?

 

[Salvarani]

Powless and Guerreiro!

 

[theyoungest]

Van Aert wants to be in the break => Van Aert is in the break.

 

[Boehmand]

Weird with two AG2R riders in two breaks, but no Gall.

 

[Salvarani]

Van Aert wants to be in the break => Van Aert is in the break.

If only he would want to win more monuments or worlds instead.

Break in the TdF has higher priority though.

It's easy to hate...
