Visma yes, but Ineos and Soudal worried about top 10 gc placings?

Someone rally the British Twitter mob, quickly!
"GC jates" has a much catchier ring to it than GC kuss imo. I'm here for it

If you are talking about Yates. It doesn't matter, he is 5 minutes behind Vingegaard. They still have Pogacar and Almeida in a dream position.

Having Vingegaard pull back in the bunch is a panic mode reaction, tbh...
Looks like Visma don't even have to ride though. Ineos, QS and teams wanting the stage are riding instead. Yates is a bigger danger to Remco and CRod than he is to Vingegaard

I know but Yates is the only one with capacity to attack! Almeida doesn't have that acceleration!

Yates in the break has now made it a harder day for everyone, that's for sure.

Keep Yates close, so Gall can leapfrog him easier in the mountains when the former has to work for Pogacar.
Gall but yes, bit pathetic. On the other hand - its absolutely irrelevant if they spend energy before the mountains. Anyway not like they could do anything there proactively.

Break is doomed as long as Yates is there
UAe is gonna be hated by every single other team there

Also, Decathlon brought better rouleurs than climbing support to this Tour, so at least they are using their team...
Yates spend 0 energy. He pull 0 meters. If he would sitting now in the peloton it would just the same

Then it's on them to try to make splits in the group and force Yates to close them or drop back. But I know it's hard with such a big group and a small gap to work with.

I bet the other GC teams are wasting more of their riders trying to keep the break at bay than Yates wastes himself. Or at any rate you use one rider to drain the energy from 10+ opposing domestiques.
Lol, sticky bottle situations: Intermarche rider holding a bottle for ten seconds, then receiving another bottle, then giving that bottle back to the driver. Also, we saw Wellens get his radio fixed - why is that even allowed. A radio is not important for completing the stage.
Given how they have already chased down breaks I think that horse has already bolted
Mvdp should nudge him into a ditch.

He pulls nearly as much as anyone else in front.
You would think that the front group will be dysfunctional at one point...already more passengers there. In 10-15 kms if it stays at a minute some riders will be probably a bit bit more chill in the break because they know they can't keep that up against the peleton

It's not. I'm sure they wish the camera didn't catch it. Probably a monetary fine from Der Kommissar.

Yates is doing less work than Rui Costa. He’s fine.
