Good performance still. Probably sat up a bit. Knowing he has no chance to repeat what he did last year and get on the podium.Adam Yates +2'42" on the stage.
And if Almeida + Ayuso are this good... he doesnt need to be better atm.

Yeah, that looked strange. Shaking his head.Vingo losing two more seconds at the line might be a mental blow in itself
I would not have thought Tadej would put time into Jonas on rhe descent. The gap was only 7 seconds on rhe top of rhe Galibier.
Jonas practiced descents prior to rhe Tour to regain his confidence after his terrible crash. It's tough. It will be interesting to see what he says about that.
Jonas has power as well, as we saw in the TT last year.It wasn't a very technical descent though, long winding road but not many sharp turns, gives enough time for Pogi power to develop.
Pogacar put 3 seconds into Vingegaard at the very start (Vingo took a bit longer to recover, as can be expected), then like 1 or 2 on the rest of the technical section, then 25s on the power bit.It wasn't a very technical descent though, long winding road but not many sharp turns, gives enough time for Pogi power to develop.

the problem is that UAE can more or less dictate where the cabinet shall stay, as they have like 5 riders that all seem to be over Visma's second strongest rider.Did you say the same on stage 4 the last two years as well?![]()
But there was a headwind.
Dunno how you can tell, everyone remembers "last man left with Tadej and Jonas" Sepp, nobody remembers the other half the time when he's "cracks alongside random Frenchmen halfway up the hill for no apparent reason" Sepp.
Bernal actually was faster today than in 2019!
