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

[RobertCrawley]

Who's pulling now, Tadej?

Seriously why is Pog even going to the front? WTF is wrong with him???

To put time into his competitors.

 

[iBanesto]

Let's see if Vingegaard will try an attack or just do a "Cadel Evans".

 

[Scarponi]

Remco “elbows” Evenpoel

 

[Gigs_98]

I think Pogacar is dead. Vingegaard can win today if he attacks

Bonus seconds

 

[Unterlenkerfahrend]

Very hard to evaluate from these time gaps who is pulling at what percentage. there is no way Vingegaard and Pogacar are, yet Remco (and Primoz the one time he went on the front) are not reducing the gap, same for the Rodriguez group.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Vingegaard will most likely be too afraid of a counter attack to try anything himself.

 

[Potomac]

CVV says final descent is mossy and tricky

 

[Peyroteo94]

Pogi will lose 30 seconds today

 

[ontheroad]

It's a psychological win for Vingegaard even though he might end up losing a handful of bonus seconds.

 

[Scarponi]

It’s crazy that if Vinge didn’t exist Pogacar would be doing doubles every year without being touched. Would rack up 15 grand tours easy

 

[QueenStagiaire]

LOL they‘ve given him the combativity prize, poor EF

 

[mountainroad]

So much balls

[Brullnux]

I don't think this will hurt Pogacar physically, Vingegaard has done just as much work, it's psychologically that it's ruinous

Competitors for what? The minor places?

 

[Mayomaniac]

, shame he's actually close on GC else he'd be winning stages next week for sure

I doubt the podium guys care about him, too far back.
Trek also lost TGH before the race and Pedersen in the first week, if he ends up in the top 10 today they'll probably have him ride for the gc.

 

[Unterlenkerfahrend]

Also there is no way Pogacar is dead here. The guy has a crazy recovery rate when he gets to rest for a few minutes (which he clearly did on the descent), it's also not steep enough for Vingegaard to get a gap.

 

[iBanesto]

LA =

 

[Heston]

It's a psychological win for Vingegaard even though he might end up losing a handful of bonus seconds.

A bit like Planche des Belles Filles in 2022.

 

[Brullnux]

This weekend... I will be there no matter what

 

[dobrien]

I think Pogacar is dead. Vingegaard can win today if he attacks

Pog is looking stressed for sure, at least to my eyes. He is very lucky this isn't a more serious climb. Remco is doing very well today actually; nowhere near a complete collapse.

 

[Scarponi]

Remco and Roglic being together for the next 1.5 weeks is proper meme worthy.

 

[saunaking]

Pogi will lose 30 seconds today

??? what ?? how???

Sorry that's what I meant but I phrased it badly, Lidl will make him ride for top 10 but he could/should be winning stages. Podium guys won't care, I agree.
