Tour de France Tour de France 2025, Stage 18: Vif - Courchevel Col de La Loze(171.5k)

Wellens for the valley up front incase of an attack is a reasonable move, this aint the way though.

He will, don't worry about that

 

[Potomac]

Groves for the win!

 

[RedheadDane]

Hey, I know that dam!

They all look dam identical to me.

Lenny missed the break? If so, he will not win the poka dot jersey

Still has 21 k to climb up to the front.

 

[Monsi]

Surely there will still be attacks from the peloton on the climb.

If it's true the Visma car brake checked Pogacar with no obstructions ahead causing them to brake, that should be a bigger story

Last time the TDF came this way up the Glandon was 2017, when Contador did that insane attack to bridge across to a break. Nostalgia.

nobody cares,wont save them.

Lenny missed the break? If so, he will not win the poka dot jersey

Think he waits for the steep part to bridge, no point killing himself on the false flat.

Wellens upfront as a safety net makes sense for UAE (and it's actually the tactic Visma has been doing for years), I just don't think he (or most people) will actually get over the Madeleine ahead of the GC group the way its going right now.

 

[ashhutch1997]

The intimidate sprint made has actually made the Glandon way more interesting.

Matt Rendal on ITV is so awful on comms

He doesn t call the race , but just talks rubbish

Just talks as if he is an am dram group

 

[AnotherArmChair]

so it looks like Wellens v WVA

 

[Boehmand]

For the life of me I can't understand what Groves is doing in the break - but it might just be to get a head start.

Edit: And then he dropped.

Yes he's not great, but I respect his knowledge of the sport.

Wout done, he’s dead.

[slim charles]

Primož in yellow in Paris it's clear now!!!

 

[Lequack]

Will they let Roglic in the break?

I never though it would happen, but it's happening!
