Tour de France Tour de France 2025 Stage 14: Pau – Luchon Superbagnères (182.6k)

Martinez should just go. There's almost no valleys but so he can win three mountains the stage win is not possible either way.

 

[Tim Cahill]

What's going on with Evenepoel? It's worse than just lack of optimal preparation. It really looks like some illness.

Nobody knows, won't stop the psychoanalysis from afar with no information though.

 

[Potomac]

Patrick Leverfe comment on Netflix on how its sad for Remco that he is in the Pog/Vingegaard generation. I thought it a moving observation

Why sad for him and not everyone else?

 

[BubbaChuck]

thye said,well play kilojoul game with pogacar and he has his team every hard stage in front,lmao.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

The break has completely disintegrated already, many riders looking way worse than usual even though conditions are practically perfect.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Victor Campanerts randomly looking class all race in amongst a rather mediocre Visma iteration.

 

[Potomac]

If I'm in the break I'm not leaving THJ's wheel

 

[jono]

So what happens when a rider climbs off and goes in the team car? Do one of the team staff need to wait at the side of the road? Does Remco have to sit in the car for 3 hours until the end of the stage?

 

[AnotherArmChair]

Why sad for him and not everyone else?

I dont know why you have to ask that

Because Remco is so talented esp at a very early age and because he carries the weight of a nation like Belgium

 

[Eddy Evenepoel]

Why ended Simon Yates up in the third group? Bad legs or missed the move?

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Dull Remco out at (anag.)
Col du Tourmalet

 

[Eddy Evenepoel]

I dont know why you have to ask that

Because Remco is so talented esp at a very early age and because he carries the weight of a nation like Belgium

Most important in this specific case: because Lefevre is (was) the team boss of Remco. Of course it makes sense for him to talk about Remco specific and not everyone else…

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Why ended Simon Yates up in the third group? Bad legs or missed the move?

You can‘t really miss the move on consistently steep climbs unless you don‘t have the legs

 

[dobrien]

All on board for the new Belgian wonderkid Emiel Verstrynge!

The New New NEW Eddy Merckx.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

A shame what happened to Remco. A good personality in this sport in the world of visma and UAE robots.

Hope to see him on the attack again soon, San Sebastian is coming

well yes exactly that, poor QS guy holding the door sort of realised it after Remco got in, thinking oh...erm guys where do I sit

 

[Eddy Evenepoel]

You can‘t really miss the move on consistently steep climbs unless you don‘t have the legs

Simon Yates always trying to be last in the group could definitively miss a split in a big break group

Depends. Most likely get in the team van behind the race, then drive to the team hotel and from that moment they just make a plan how he gets home. He's not injured so a hospital visit isn't gonna be required.

Mühlberger outclimbed (so far) Mas and Castrillo - now do the same with Rubio and go for glory, Gregor!

Patrick Leverfe comment on Netflix on how its sad for Remco that he is in the Pog/Vingegaard generation. I thought it a moving observation

I don’t know, Vingegaard would fairly certainly have 5 tours on the bounce at 28 of age. If not for a certain Slovenian. Now that’s a proper grievance

 

[Cance > TheRest]

Remember back in 2004 when Mayo was ready to climb off but not allowed by his DS. Cycling has grown soft!

 

[RedheadDane]

Why sad for him and not everyone else?

TBF, I suppose for a guy like... Milan it probably won't make much of a difference.

 

[Rule #9 apostle]

Cycling isn't possible without resilience and suffering. He is mentally dead so this is normal

What? Remco dropping immediately every time the road goes uphill is not normal at all? And the fight he put up on stage 12 was a demonstration of extreme mental resilience. Something is definitely completely wrong physically

 

[Potomac]

Most important in this specific case: because Lefevre is (was) the team boss of Remco. Of course it makes sense for him to talk about Remco specific and not everyone else…

So it is Lefevre that is sad, for himself?

 

[Peyroteo94]

I dont know why you have to ask that

Because Remco is so talented esp at a very early age and because he carries the weight of a nation like Belgium

And he is very talented, maybe not to beat generational GC riders but they don't get it. So more moments like this will happen when racing against Pogacar in GTs.
