Tour de France Tour de France 2024, Stage 1: Florence (Firenze) - Rimini, 206.0k

[Netserk]

Pedersen, Van Aert and Aranburu the fastest riders in the bunch.

 

[Mayomaniac]

So Keldermerckx already crashed today, you couldn't make this one up.

 

[topcat]

Visma are shredding the peloton.

 

[tobydawq]

Pedersen, Van Aert and Aranburu the fastest riders in the bunch.

Is Aranburu really faster than Pogacar or Roglic?

Or Pidcock.

 

[Samamba]

Visma are shredding the peloton.

They dropped 1 guy. and are losing time? Fake pacing making sure Van Aert follows and then try to catch the break after San Marino

 

[Netserk]

Is Aranburu really faster than Pogacar or Roglic?

Or Pidcock.

Maybe not Pogi, but I don't think Rogla will sprint today.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Is Aranburu really faster than Pogacar or Roglic?

Or Pidcock.

Of course

 

[KOM]

Visma are shredding the peloton.

Intriguing, they are however in fact not shredding the peloton. Theyre slowpacing to the extent that Pedersen, who was dropped two climbs ago, is back and hanging on and Bardet gained more than a minute in 50 seconds

 

[Eddy Evenepoel]

Not really the showing of strenght that was expected from UAE or what?

 

[Krzysztof_O]

So no fight in the GC it seems. UAE stopped whatever they started.

 

[RobertCrawley]

Wow, Madouas suffered trying to stay on that wheel.

 

[Peyroteo94]

Ayuso lol

 

[KOM]

Looks like Cav has indeed stabilized 😍

 

[AnotherArmChair]

Healy should have gone with Bardet ....He is tenacious but sometimes his timings

 

[Netserk]

Ayuso barely hanging on!

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Ayuso when he‘s asked to ride for Pogačar:

 

[tobydawq]

Of course

Really? He really doesn't impress often in a flat sprint.

 

[Scarponi]

How boring are these flat stage 1s….. hehe

 

[AmRacer]

Ayuso herding the peloton

 

[Rob5091]

UAE finding out that 3 doms (1 of whom was too sick to do the Nat champs) are not as good as 7? Visma knocking it off to fight another day.

 

[tobydawq]

Ayuso on the ropes.

 

[Peyroteo94]

This is strange to say but these are great news for Pogacar and UAE. now, it is clear Pogacar - Yates - Almeida - Ayuso

 

[solo80k]

So no fight in the GC it seems. UAE stopped whatever they started.

Probably found out Visma is prepared. A real showdown will be on Galibier.

 

[Jack_89]

it ends up that UAE was stronger in the Giro 🤣

 

[Scarponi]

Stage needed a wall 4km out
