Tour de France Tour de France 2024: Stage 19: Embrun - Isola 2000, 19/07 144.6k

[Samu Cuenca]

I saw Peter Prevc today, did you guys know he used to be a ski jumper?

I didn't actually know he had retired this year.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Tell EF if they get involved in the GC like this then they will spend the entirety of next season having a 7 man yellow train mowing down Georg Steinhauser and Jack Rootkin-Gray moves in insignificant 2.1 races

 

[Winnen]

I appreciate that VLAB doesn't ride to protect second place. I think it is futile, but still a nice attempt.

 

[Stelvio]

I'm not sure about this move by Visma unless Vingegaard is feeling really, really good. Using three of your guys to go up the road kind of precludes any chance of them drilling it up Vars/Bonette.

This is what not caring about second place looks like. They are going for it, and if Jonas cracks then he cracks.

 

[SHAD0W93]

Others need to make Visma chance to tire them and UAE out.

 

[MJR]

Surprised UAE isn't shutting that down. That's too much firepower allowed off the front, IMHO.

Was it over when the Germans attacked Pearl Harbor?

 

[Slavique Nuke]

UAE lucky that Carapaz missed the break. EF working instead of them

 

[RedheadDane]

Was it over when the Germans attacked Pearl Harbor?

They never did. That was the Japanese.

 

[noob]

That fort

Actually sending riders up the road instead of drilling the peloton is a very good way of protecting second place

 

[Potomac]

They never did. That was the Japanese.

oh dear.

 

[AmRacer]

Bini wins the green.

 

[Netserk]

Hear me out. What if Vingegaard goes on Vars? Isolate Pogi as soon as possible on the stage and go for maximum chaos.

frankly, at the risk of looking like an idiot in three hours, it also is a good way to try to get a stage win for Jorgenson if GC is out of reach

 

[RobertCrawley]

Bini wins the green.

Is it mathematical impossible now for Jasper Disaster now? Of course, Bini has to stay on his bike.

 

[Slavique Nuke]

They never did. That was the Japanese.

It was false flag

 

[Stelvio]

Bini wins the green.

And Coquard third

 

[Potomac]

Was it over when the Germans attacked Pearl Harbor?

You must be as old as I am.

 

[MJR]

They never did. That was the Japanese.

 

[fbjim]

EF are being very rude to the time cut guys

 

[Martinstranger]

Depending on the result this image will be viewed in one of two ways. They destroyed him, or he destroys them.

It's quite a bromance those two guys have at the moment. Lets see if that keeps going.

EF isn't gonna be happy with this, they wanted Carapaz to have a shot at KOM jersey still

Once again they missed out and now have to use extra power to repair. They should hire a sport director to helt them out. Wonder what it could have been, if Carapaz had used his energy in a better way - but on the other hand, he got a stage.

I'm not sure about this move by Visma unless Vingegaard is feeling really, really good. Using three of your guys to go up the road kind of precludes any chance of them drilling it up Vars/Bonette.

At least they are trying something and riders in front can be used both for attacks and helt if needed.

If I was Vingegaard I would'nt care if i ended 2 or 5 in the tour, as long as I had a shot at nr. 1.

 

[noob]

Bernal

 

[gregrowlerson]

Hear me out. What if Vingegaard goes on Vars? Isolate Pogi as soon as possible on the stage and go for maximum chaos.

Best. Tour. Ever.

aka GOAT

 

[Stelvio]

Visma not caring about the break?

Edit: Now riding again
