Abrahamsen!

Abramachine getting a severe talking to, for attacking while the yellow jersey is on a pee break

I thought the second Lotto rider might have been Vanhoucke.

They will have 3 riders in a group of 20 or so, but none of their climbers lmao. They did good but with the wrong rider basically. Tbf, hard to do it with Vanhoucke, he doesn't really have the power, and they tried earlier with Van Gils.

 

[Tim Cahill]

I think that was payback for Yates tanking the break yesterday

Not against any rules. Pogacar's fault for stopping at this moment

 

[Samamba]

Cort must be frustrated not getting the chance to win the stage yesterday with these legs.

Think a lot of riders in that break are still angry with Yates

 

[Boehmand]

It's an unwritten rule - and he probably didn't know Pogacar had stopped

 

[houtdffan]

nbc making this unwatchable today

I want the tour to be over so that I dont have to see Abrahamson in a break

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Is your signal bad?

(only geeks gonna understand this bad joke)

Is it a reference to a TV show?

What's wrong with seeing Abrahamson in a break?
At least he's... dressed.





He published some nude photos before the Tour

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Healy with a helmet bigger than his body.

What do all those names on the road signify? I have sound-on for the Giro, so didn't hear the explanation.

I think you got your answer in one of your posts here But yes first historical name droppings at the start of the ramt up Avenue Napolen Bonaparte gave me chills!
Apart from that, I'm a bit dissapointed ASO didn't plan to take the entire beautiful temporary Circuit de Pau as a starter to départ. And ofc commentators didn't mention this detail with a single word, despite the riders standing almost in front of the interim pits. Though fairly clear reference from ASO's side, but of course also requires more than 5% interest in that sport of which I've followed just as intense since kids age too. Just a shame it's being passed over. Like Nogaro the other day.

UAE will control I think, Pla D'adet isnt hard and Pogacar can take time+bonuses with a sprint

Didn't you hear that Vingegaard is now the best GC sprinter now?!

I'd quite fancy a break with Abrasamson and Ramco at one point.

 

[Pantani_lives]

Weird to see all those sprinters in the break. Just for that one bonus sprint? At least Healy, Lutsenko and Gaudu are there. They would need about five minutes at the foot of Pla d'Adet.

 

[ManicJack]

Remco burning his team already?

 

[RobertCrawley]

That unwritten rule applies to other GC contenders.

 

[solo80k]

Remco burning his team already?

They'll be useless during the climbs (except Landini), so why not burn them now?

MVDP on a nice training ride for the Olympics....

He could relax today and be like WVA in Sorges-Malaucène..not worrying Paris too much.

I love it when intermediate sprints are contested. Always hated when Sagan didn’t have someone to sprint against.

 

[Landeirovic]

Great work from Pullit

 

[Medvind]

UAE not giving the break much time.

Would have liked two see to races, doesn't seem it will happen.

 

[memyselfandI]

Practicing for the sprint against Jonas

Historically there's some evidence that meny fast men are slow and many slow men are fast at the end of a long day on the road.

I looked at the prize money so far in the tour and AG2R are dead last with only €5k won. Very different situation than their entire season so far. Best is Intermarch with €70k+
