Tour de France Tour de France 2025, Stage 16: Montpellier to Mont Ventoux, 171.5 km

[MagliaNera]

Mas looking really strong so far. Hard not to root for him after so many near misses.

 

[Miha81]

I am really cheering for Mas here, he is so talented yet his palmares doesn't necessarily reflect this - but man he does not make it look effortless with that pain face, great tv though!

I hope he can keep this up. He had many hearthbreakes in the past and this would be epic stage win.

 

[No Excuses]

Only sepptimus left for vinge

 

[Tim Cahill]

This is a coming of age ride from Mas, attacking early and not getting bogged down, I can scarcely believe my eyes!

 

[Miha81]

Bora guys look springy in the GC group

 

[Tim Cahill]

Pogacar mouth open, Vingegaard out of the saddle so it must be pretty hard.

 

[Kangaridoo]

The Ben Healy Express to pick up some passengers towards a surprise win.

 

[Boehmand]

Pogacar doesn't seem as cool as normally.

It might be wishfull thinking (or play acting), but he usually doesn't rock his shoulders that much or breathe that hard.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Why is Simon Yates still there, swear he dropped 2k ago

Why is Simon Yates still there, swear he dropped 2k ago

He came back

 

[ontheroad]

Arensman about to die!

 

[Potomac]

The Healy monster isn't letting go.

 

[scribers]

Healy and peintre look like they are duking it out for caveman classification

 

[AnotherArmChair]

Healy finding another gear there

 

[dgodave]

Interesting climb so far.

 

[Didinho]

Kuss needs to go untill Campenaerts is there. He’s gonna drop everyone but Pogi.

 

[ontheroad]

Healy is like the duracell bunny of this tour.

 

[MagliaNera]

If this stage turns into pure climber festivities I will go with VPP and Woods to round out the stage podium behind Mas

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Kuss seems out of gas, he‘ll Focus on one leadout now

 

[Boehmand]

Simon Yates with yet another completely pointless ride

 

[D. Pecher]

Pogacar doesn't seem as cool as normally.

It might be wishfull thinking (or play acting), but he usually doesn't rock his shoulders that much or breathe that hard.

That could be down to the fact that he was reported to have symptoms of a cold.

 

[Pippo_San]

Mas better win this bike race

 

[Sciatic]

Healy remarkable. What form he brought to this Tour!

 

[Boehmand]

That could be down to the fact that he was reported to have symptoms of a cold.

Yes - or it could be him playing that up - or it could be nothing

 

[Tim Cahill]

Healy completely *** it missing that early move, he's now getting sat on
