Tour de France Tour de France 2025 Stage 11: Toulouse – Toulouse (156.8k)

[Unchained]

Engineers at Trek rethinking those silly aero water bottles, thank God!! Simmons can get some moisture from the motorcycle!!

 

[Eddy Evenepoel]

Ballerini, Abrahamsen and Schmid must be so dead

Well they have been riding at a steady pace for a long time. The guys in the chase group (perhaps minus Mathieu) have probably much less time in high effort zones, but at the same time have done higher efforts. Like Wout was pacing like a complete mad man in peloton at time, no guarantee that he is fresher.

I think Simmons is probably the strongest

 

[Andre]

should Vingo give it another go?

 

[red_flanders]

I think Simmons is probably the strongest

Stronger than MvDP and Wout? I mean, go USA but…

 

[Brullnux]

'De Lie, he's growing into this Tour. We did see he had a turd very recently in the race.'

I know, it's just a feeling

 

[Penninepeddler]

Wout already up to 6x 2nd places this season. Will today be #7?

Already beat his 5x 2nd places last year.

Closing in on his record 11x 2nds from 2022.

These guys on French Eurosport sound like they are enjoying some tequila!!
Happy people!!

Belgian Pozzato for a reason

 

[Tim Cahill]

Lemond-like transformation for De Lie, if this stage were held 3 months ago we'd see him on the side of the road after 40k shaking his head and remonstrating with his DS.

He’s having a great race for sure. Much stronger than I thought, but I don’t see how he gets away from that group.

Nico Roche: "I come from a generation that had to think about tomorrow. Well these riders don't think about tomorrow, they race every day like it's a classic."

 

[jono]

Why are Israel riding? And EF for that matter?

 

[Unchained]

Who is EF chasing?

Spite at this point

 

[Sciatic]

He’s having a great race for sure. Much stronger than I thought, but I don’t see how he gets away from that group.

If he's still there after the final climb (probably not) he could benefit from Van Aert & MVDP watching each other like in the olden days when they were closely matched.

 

[AmRacer]

Why are they pulling so hard?

Happy people!!

Rob hatch is dreaming of Healy going all the way to Paris in yellow. He’s drinking too

 

[red_flanders]

Someone please tell me why the clowns in the hideous magenta and blue blend are chasing?

 

[Sciatic]

Who is EF chasing?

When else do they get a chance to lead the peloton, so why not? And there's honoring the yellow and that type of thing.

 

[Andre]

peloton, please st0p chasing

 

[Unchained]

EF team car said, let's go ahead and light it up we can drop Pogacar he is on the limit.. We have energy to spare

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Somebody fire the Israel DS, this is ridiculous
