Tour de France Tour de France 2025 Stage 12: Auch - Hautacam (180.6k)

[Ilmaestro99]

Ben heally to attack Pocagar and give him 'the look'. He will be caught and lose minutes, but it will be fun for 30 seconds

Nice to see ASO taking a moment to remember Samuele Privitera before the stage start

I’m hearing absolutely shocking rumours from out on the course that Evenepoel has gone full bald

Every gram counts

Some pre-race interviews:

Gianetti (UAE): "Pogacar had a good night. His fall won't impact his performance."

Tiesj Benoot (Visma): "I expect fireworks in the GC. Hautacam invites to really race, but even before that it will get tough."

Remco Evenepoel (SOQ): "I hope I'm ready."

This doesn't tell me anything. He can be bluffing or he is actually saying the true. We can't know until Hautacam.

Disappointing to see riders eating and drinking during the minute's silence.

Depends, if he finishes with Vingegaard or loses a bit of time. We don't really know. If he loses time, and finishes with Evenepoel, then yeah the fall had an impact.

He's also not wearing his golden helmet. Gold is quite heavy, after all.

I think this is the stage Pogi says enough...no more playing around with the yellow jersey and the contenders. Today is the day he decimates the field and leaves no doubt who will win...anger from the crash yesterday will fuel him with Pogi Hate and the rest of the peloton will feel his wrath. Then he will smile, the hate will fade, and it will be happy go lucky Pogi again.

Yeah, it's shorter than normal, no clue why

He is competing with Giannetti and San Milan to see who is the Bald Fraud

Another bald fraud?

Pog is currently riding on Y1RS, not VR5S. How so?

It's an extraordinarily risky move to go Baldco, because this was the first thing I thought of too, if he gets dropped then being bald just intensifies the fraud accusations.

Conversely, if he does well then the new cut will make him look wise and give him if anything more credibility than if he would've kept his hair, like Michael Rasmussen in 2007 or Riis himself.

Then all the marginal gains will get even more credibility.

You think he can change later on?

 

[Stablo]

Would be suprised if he doesnt change it after the flat part.

 

[Didinho]

Yeah Campenaerts with a normal helmet is not Campenaerts.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Remco looks like he's been training in 'mexico' for the tour
