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

[postmanhat]

I am honestly at loss for words how stupid Gall has been riding these last two days

Yesterday he made a lot of mistakes, but not sure what else he could try today.

Moreover, his team throughout the Tour, have been utterly useless.

 

[burning]

Wait are you suggesting that Gall should NOT pace in this situation???

Well, he already secured 5th in GC right now, he can let Johannessen pull for 6th.

 

[Bombarolo]

Poor Gall they are exploiting his work

 

[ontheroad]

Gall could well be finishing this Tour as the third strongest rider although he will likely finish 5th but he has very little option but to do a long pull here now.

 

[Salvarani]

Roglic dropping 10 minutes here would be funny

 

[Boehmand]

I still believed in his own words "Tour is not over"

What he meant by that was "Pogacar could get a bad day".

Everyone - including himself - knew it was impossible without that.

 

[YavorD]

I still believed in his own words "Tour is not over"

I think he said that before they shortened the stage?
Once they did the same "short and explosive", I don't think he said that.

 

[Peyroteo94]

It’s just Pogi fans getting mad that Jonas wont pave the way for an easy win.

Why saying "Tour is not over" when you doesn't attack a single time

 

[Kazistuta]

Maybe attack ? Maybe go all out to gain some time? Where is all or nothing mindset? All talk but zero walk

Pointless right now. He doesn't need to gain anything, knows he'll lose a sprint to Pogi, and if memory serves me right, Pogi did exactly the same (with all right to do so) several times this tour.

 

[Salvarani]

Poor Gall they are exploiting his work

Blame Roglic

 

[Eddy Evenepoel]

Well, he already secured 5th in GC right now, he can let Johannessen pull for 6th.

Oh wow you are right, is see Roglic is already 5 min behind and Johannessen might climb to 6th!
(In watching on phone and the numbers top left are too small)

 

[danielzu]

Onley needs to do something soon

 

[Boehmand]

He looks a bit like Froome on that Mavic bike on Ventoux.

But Froome was elbows out - this is the knees

 

[RobertCrawley]

I still believed in his own words "Tour is not over"

If he could go, he would. It's a tough sport.

 

[Valv.Piti]

Man I miss Almeida to shred these fools

 

[Bombarolo]

Onley should try something in order to get third place

 

[snipeheem]

We both know their last attempt was yesterday, don’t be ingenious and say that Jonas can make up 4 minutes on La Plagne.

yesterday was attempt? Come on

 

[Ulfhednar]

Jonas giving Pogi a proctology exam...jeez...do something LOL All talk and no action.

 

[Brullnux]

Why saying "Tour is not over" when you doesn't attack a single time

Just platitudes, which interviews are always with. There's literally no way to pull back 5 minutes on a stage that is effectively a unipuerto.

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Is he supposed to race so Pogacar wins?

It’s just Pogi fans getting mad that Jonas wont pave the way for an easy win.

Just a reminder that Pogacar is the one in yellow, there seems to be some confusion here on that point.

 

[Berniece]

Why saying "Tour is not over" when you doesn't attack a single time

Attacked multiple times since he said that

 

[Unchained]

Un garcon de vache.

Merci

 

[Samamba]

Red Bull/Lipo about to lose the white jersey on the Champs.

 

[Red Rick]

Onley trying to add nothing to the race while making the podium.

 

[iBanesto]

I still believed in his own words "Tour is not over"

But when he said that he meant there are stages left... not that he can win it.

Visma PR machine in full force.
