Tour de France Tour de France 2025 Stage 19: Albertville-La Plagne (93.1k) ‚Historic day, magnificent racing‘ ~ Rob Hatch, probably

[Red Rick]

Why should they care about what someone else is doing, if there is of no benefit to themselves?

If they wanted to benefit themselves they would race a lot differently, but they don't, so they don't.

 

[Boehmand]

Unox idiots dropped their own leader.

The thing with extreme endurance sports is, that you can feel great one moment - and at death's door the next.

It's not predictable, it's not something you can plan your way out of (outside of the normal precautions and preparations) - it just happens occasionally in the last days of a GT.

- also you've got the wrong Johannesen

 

[AlpRaid]

PP thinks he will do better in the valley on his own than with rog. speaking of dumb attacks...

 

[QueenStagiaire]

If they wanted to benefit themselves they would race a lot differently, but they don't, so they don't.

Would Roglič transfer to Uno-X if they listened to you?

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Florian Lipowitz has been abandoned by the team.

Lipo to Ineos, Remco to Bora, calling it.

 

[Gigs_98]

Thinking AG2R should drill it on the false flat to catch Roglic. With as much work as he has already done today Gall might be able to get a big gap on him today and catch him on gc.

 

[Squire]

If they wanted to benefit themselves they would race a lot differently, but they don't, so they don't.

So how would you race if your GC rival is dropped and you have a domestique left in the group? And the breakaway is kept on a short leash anyway.

 

[Red Rick]

Would Roglič transfer to Uno-X if they listened to you?

Nobody listens to me.

I consider it problematic.

 

[Norbea]

Don´t worry. Leknessund can´t do anything downhill except braking.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Don´t worry. Leknessund can´t do anything downhill except braking.

Which is why he‘s let UAE into the lead before the descent. Smart play

 

[Tim Cahill]

Great to hear from ambassador for fair play in cycling Roman Kreuziger about the incident yesterday.

 

[Sciatic]

Didn't Roglic win his first Tour (or was it GT) stage by bombing a solo descent?

 

[Rou]

Flying Rogla on the road! Tour 2018 vibes.

 

[Boehmand]

Lipo to Ineos, Remco to Bora, calling it.

Why wouldn't they keep Lipowitz?

 

[RobertCrawley]

Americans are mesmerized by Phils voice. Hes like a less cunning Saruman.

Love it! The voice of my summers.

 

[memyselfandI]

Rogla ftw! gogogo!

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Why wouldn't they keep Lipowitz?

Too many chiefs. Lipo isn't going to ride b**ch for Remco.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Didn't Roglic win his first Tour (or was it GT) stage by bombing a solo descent?

He won his first Tour stage by dropping Contador on the Galibier, but his second Tour stage he won by attacking the Aubisque descent.

 

[Peyroteo94]

Roglic YOLO!!! Unfortunately UAE will catch him

 

[cen]

Rog: I surely can't crash if I go solo. No pain no glory.

 

[Red Rick]

Didn't Roglic win his first Tour (or was it GT) stage by bombing a solo descent?

Both his first 2 Tour stages were descent finishes. Galibier from the breakaway, Aubisque from the GC group

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Why Bora has to look so ugly, they were once pretty. But in general it's a seriously ugly year for the peloton, I've never really put much attention, but since the race is not that thrilling....what are these jerseys?

I kinda like the Smurfy shorts, but the jersey is utterly forgettable.

 

[Red Rick]

Rog: I surely can't crash if I go solo. No pain no glory.

"I'm gonna stress housewives all around the world"

 

[pastronef]

dear me the noise of those disk brakes ffs

 

[Eyeballs Out]

Great to hear from ambassador for fair play in cycling Roman Kreuziger about the incident yesterday.

It was a language issue apparently

"Lenny, grab hold of this bottle"
"I'm sorry I don't understand?"
