Tour de France Tour de France 2024, Stage 12: Aurillac > Villenueve-sur-Lot, 203.6km

[Wvv]

Biniam was like 20 riders back until the last couple hundred meters, lol.

Impressive last k from Girmay, also thanks to Teunissen.

4 years in a row Rog crashes out of contention

This is not a fluke at this point. This is a recurring trend. I get on Remco for crashing, but Rog has an even bigger crashing problem

 

[CyclistAbi]

3k rule for Roglic yesterday, 58-second rule today?

Haha, that is really funny, best joke i heard in a while.

 

[CyclistAbi]

Congratulations to Biniam Girmay Hailu for wining the sprint.

Now onto more important things, Rogla.

Sprint field is washed at this Tour, Milan/Merlier would've cleaned up

Agree but I think this is the fastest Girmay has ever been. However, Ackermann is coming like top five every sprint.

 

[Movitrain]

Gaviria barely escapes the barrier each and every day, I can only imagine how frustrated he is by now

 

[Scarponi]

Haha, that is really funny, best joke i heard in a while.

Imagine watching a riders whole year go down the drain with potential for serious injury and making a joke.

 

[red_flanders]

I want to see Cav's move from above too.

Looks like he darted around an Arkea rider fading back after pulling.

 

[RobertCrawley]

Trees block the overhead camera shot. Can't really see what happened at the end.

Chapeau Girmay - 3 stages for him & the team.

 

[KOM]

Philipsen just a glorified Bouhanni without his nanny lol

 

[kingjr]

Demare, Philipsen, and Cavendish all need to be relegated.

Green jersey pretty much in the bag now.

 

[Netserk]

Good job by Teunissen.

 

[Jagartrott]

Another sprint, another sprinter nearly pushing Van Aert into the barriers. Similar move from Démare as Philipsen, so this should be relegation as well.

 

[memyselfandI]

It's interesting as Girmay has the highest sprinting position from the top four top five sprinters today and he still overcomes all of them. Must have some power! Speeds this high, your position is absolutely crucial, but whatever, man is a deserved winner.

Yeah, today i will leave it to pettiness, to prevail, tomorrow to fight on.

 

[RobertCrawley]

Three!!!

If you think that joke was intended to make fun of Roglic, I really don't know what to tell you...

 

[Sciatic]

Biniii!

Wout always in good positioning himself and going against the borders.

He had to stop pedaling completely.

 

[Scarponi]

If you think that joke was intended to make fun of Roglic, I really don't know what to tell you...

Maybe I read it wrong, it’s 1am here in Australian and I’m devastated as a Roglic fan. Apologies if so but not sure what it means

 

[Didinho]

He had to stop pedaling completely.

Yeah I was following him when I saw him at the side. If he was a bit more patient he could’ve won today without braking.
But you never know if Démare’s pace would open up space. Or the rest would box him in on the inside.

But if you’ve almost crashed a couple times there I would stay away from the borders. He was the strongest in the sprint.

 

[dgodave]

Straight on shot of sprint looked like madness. Is there an overhead?

 

[Valv.Piti]

Absolutely hate sprinters closing gaps like that, its so dangerous. Hold your goddamn line and just do a proper sprint. Wout is always the guy getting *** by it

 

[movingtarget]

Thought Cavendish was going to win but he ran out of room behind the winner. Another stage for Girmay. Roglic in trouble again. Didn't seem to be a lot of urgency in the chase by Bora, wonder if that means he's broken something or he was just in too much pain or both. The break has to get more riders up the road to have any hope on these stages. The Jayco rider that hit the tree didn't look good after almost cleaning up a few spectators.
