Vingegaard vs the field isn't exactly great it's just 2014 all over again except a better winner obliterating a better field.
Now without Pogacar and Vingegaard there's some all time potential for this Tour.

Mathieu van der Poel is quite the showman. He put Thibau Nys's face on the cockpit to motivate himself.

Weather report says wind from W/SW when the peloton turns North from Lens.
Will be interesting whether it impacts the result.
Wouldn't be surprised by a major crash and I wouldn't be surprised at all if Roglic goes down in it.
Will be a chaotic stage, historically when starting in France, its been mayhem.
Be safe. Good stage.

Quickly googles ‘was Slovenia behind the iron curtain’.
Hmm, interesting. That poster in another thread was right though, if the Yougos were still together they would have some cracking sports teams.
Anyway I do think this is a fair trade off for the sprint teams, they get a chance at the yellow jersey and in return their world championship final stage gets nerfed. I do think the opening sprint stage will become a dying breed though, they will say it’s for safety reasons but in reality it’s just more entertaining on one of the most watched days of the year.

Looks like he will need new width compliant bars next year.Mathieu van der Poel is quite the showman. He put Thibau Nys's face on the cockpit to motivate himself.

The Mont Noir used to be in Gent-Wevelgem until 2020, when the French section was dropped because of covid. Many years ago I've climbed it on a children's bike without gears, and it felt like the Mont Ventoux.

Bookmakers everywhere baffled as they take unprecedented numbers of bets on a horse that is apparently taking part in the tour de France.

Then I'm rather impressed you're up this early.
You weren't up half the night, shooting off fireworks?

Danish TV2 did a calculation of total ride time at the Tour for Pogacar and Vingegaard over the last 4 years:
Pogacar: 328 hours 28 minutes 5 seconds
Vingegaard: 328 hours 28 minutes 2 seconds
That's a 3 second difference, over 4 years and 13,776 km
Happy Tour everyone

Nice, we can see Visma save Vingegaard’s Tour if he isn’t glued to Pogacar.Crosswinds and expected showers (late afternoon) on the most nervous stage of the entire year.
Fun times ahead

Vingegaard must have felt a little under-dressed. Being the only one in the front row wearing regular team kit.

Big insight from Bobbie Traksel right at the start: We know nothing, we only know what has happened, we don't know what's going to happen.

The French being sneaky:
They know La Marseillaise won't be played by the end of the Tour, so they just play it at the beginning.
