Tour de France Tour de France 2024, Stage 11: Évaux-les-Bains > Le Lioran, 211km

[AmRacer]

Pog smashing his KOM?

Crazy that Healy is only 7 minutes down given the way he has been racing...

his performance on the Galibier was totally unexpected too. Was the ~12th strongest guy up the mountain and would have lost a lot less time (maybe ~2 mins less given who dropped with) if did not ride in with Carapaz.

Doubt he is ever a threat for more than a top 10 GC finish in career... but before this tour I thought at his best he would simply be a Ardennes Classic contender over the next ~10 years and maybe, just maybe get a LBL win with some luck and a weaker field.

But this TDF makes me think he could be a contender at Il Lombardia too.

When Healy is on he’s on. But he has long and deep valleys in his form. We talked about his potential at stage racing vs stage hunting or hilly classics. Numbers don’t lie now. He’s nipping at top 10 three week racing

By a farmer, yes

Remco didn't look happy at Vingegaard there slotting in front of him to get onto Pogacars wheel.

 

[Jagartrott]

Robogaard clearly was input 'follow Pogacar'. Evenepoel was in Pogacar's wheel for half a minute, but no-go, Robogaard has taken his correct place again.

Lazkano what a beast, 75 kg and smashing 10% gradient climb!

He is literally what you would get if wout van aert became a good rider

 

[Ripper]

Any word on van Aert? Curious how he's recovered from his little tumble

 

[iBanesto]

They keep showing Bardet and Thomas like it's Indurain getting dropped

1996 good times...

Who is Riis this time round? Vingegaard?!

No idea why they let him in

 

[Netserk]

No idea why they let him in

He's the defending winner. He gets first dibs.

 

[dazaau]

Nice to see Roglic up and about

 

[noob]

No

They act as if they do. Weirdly

Ah nope now I saw the gap was bigger!

He is good, not a heavy crash

Whatever happened to all the new young kids with no respect

 

[Potomac]

Does Pog launch in the last Km of this climb?

 

[Tim Cahill]

Jumbots looking much better today, Benoot still there so the pace can't be that hard

 

[Ripper]

People grimacing, TaPo and ViGo nose breathing in easy mode

 

[Netserk]

Ayuso to work before Yates?!

 

[Tim Cahill]

Does Pog launch in the last Km of this climb?

Think pacing suggests an attack on Pertus rather than this climb

 

[Ripper]

He is good, not a heavy crash
