I was gonnay say Vingo looked like he saw a ghost, but maybe he just had a look in the mirror.

Weird comment

Easy to say in hindsight, but why did Vingegaard push the pace on steep section, surely he must have feelt that he wasn't super good.

Jonas took A lot of wind yesterday with a big gain on Pogacar.
beautiful win for Pogacar today and great for the tour that he didn't dropped the ball today on only stage6, as Vingegaard and Poagacar er in a league of their own.

 

[Gigs_98]

Apologies Gigs, I may have been wrong about Pogacar's form.

Is this the best week in the 21st century for the Tour de France?

I mean let's not go into all the things I have been wrong about lmao.

 

[Poursuivant]

WOW

 

[StryderHells]

What a difference a day makes...........

It‘s only stage 6, it’s been a different start to the Tour

Probably this.

But also looked that Pogi was giving pretty much his everything, no smiles when coming over the finish line.

Jumbo tried something epic over Tourmalet to try and destroy Pog.

They should have let Kuss pace over the top and had him with them for the final climb. Would have been more sensible.

Maybe the same outcome with Pog winning the stage but not +20 seconds of time loss.

Or not race the Tourmalet this hard, this early in the race.

Also, will Van Aert be here for the duration of the Tour with his wife giving birth any day? Would be a huge loss for Jumbo, if he has to leave.

Has Kuss ever been this good in the first week already? Will he be able to be at this level for the whole three weeks?

So much energy have already been used up from everybody... they will be on fumes towards the end of the race. Recovery will be key.

Sepp Kuss out of breath

He didn't keep yellow but good on peak Jai Hindley. Third place at 1:34.

 

[saunaking]

What is it with people talking about Pog 'wbeelsucking' today? He got absolutely murdered yesterday, Wout is driving it today, he rode exactly as he should have and it paid off massively.

Sunday will be very very interesting.

people are idiots/trolling

Already better than the entire Giro..............

Wait, this can happen?

 

[Peyroteo94]

Far from right. They underestimated Pogacar heavily, and it backfired.
I guess Vingegaard won't make this 50km attacks anymore.

He just rode 3 km in the front. When he attacked, he just went to WVA's wheel. It is not like Vingegaard did a lot more work than Pogi.

 

[LesDiablesRouges]

I would rather have a Macron, thanks.

Why? His appearance at the TDF was ridiculous. It will accelarate more violence in France as it shows he's completely out of touch and doesn't care about the people.

 

[del1962]

JV rode the best race today ...neither they or himself knew that Vinge would tire

How is that when jonas spent a lot of time on the front was pog on his wheel

 

[Breezy1985]

I discovered something about myself today.


With just under 4km to go I discovered I am a Pog fan. I thought I didn't care who won the Tour but I jumped as he broke away.

 

[StryderHells]

Already better than the entire Giro..............

That wasn’t a struggle

 

[Scarponi]

He didn't keep yellow but good on peak Jai Hindley. Third place at 1:34.

This is 10% peak Hindley. peak Hindley comes on stage 21

 

[Trofonios]

Was it bad tactic initially by TJV? I think not considering yesterday.
But maybe TJV and Vingegaard should have alter their tacit after Tourmalet, when Vingegaard didn't manage drop Pog, and Pog never seemed to be in real danger.

 

[Boehmand]

Ciccone over 10 minutes down

Horrible day for Trek

 

[QueenStagiaire]

I mean let's not go into all the things I have been wrong about lmao.

By the way, you can now watch stages and they can still be amazing?

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Landa rises 3 places in GC

 

[ManicJack]

What a first week. Sunday's going to be a great way to cap it off.

 

[Tim Cahill]

What was he doing just dragging Pogacar around all day, just sit up and look at him after your big effort like Contador used to do.

Gradients weren't steep enough to just drop him off the wheel like yesterday.

I agree with both points but to the second: I think its incredibly hard to tell how Pogacar feels. Yesterday he also looked at ease until dropped.
