Tour de France Tour de France 2025 Stage 20: Nantua-Pontarlier (184.2k)

I wish my mom was as proud of me as Uno-X on their 6th place.

Only your mother loves you and sometimes she lies.

When it was wet, they occasionally have also neutralized the flat Paris circuit in the past, by the way, so I guess it's pretty sure to happen on this one as well. I really see no reason to take out the climb, though.

 

[Red Rick]

Wellens about to take off once they hit the top of this.

 

[Samamba]

Laurence is a meme this TDF

EF is blocking the O'Connor attack

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Migels retelling the Euro quali streaker story, now saying that ‚Leonil Messi‘ was in a Euros match for some reason

 

[Tim Cahill]

If O'Connor doesn't have anyone left then I think he needs to go with someone, this Laurance meme attack might do

 

[Samamba]

Breaking: Dylan Teuns is in this TDF

 

[Barnacle Bill]

Legendary Jegat raid incoming

They should punish him for not showing up to that match either.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

This is up there with the silliest big counterattacks I've seen.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Jegat correctly waiting, peloton could be giving up

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Climber Groves is ready....

 

[Didinho]

Lenny all in for the KOM jersey.

He’s gonna be 27th at the top, good for a total of -8 points.

 

[Red Rick]

Van Aert may give Jorgenson some leverage to pull less.

 

[ashhutch1997]

Rob Hatch keeps going on about how it's been such a fabulous race this year, am I missing something? I know he loves to overexagerate everything but this last week has been a real chore to watch.

Visma did make it hard, and to be fair to them Pogacar does look tired 3rd week, unfortunately they also nerfed their own guys in the process.

I saw Plapp getting dropped very early, don't think he made it back? Bad news for a Schmid who is trying his best has already fallen with a difficult climb coming up.

Realistically, Plapp and Durbridge should have been in that group. It also affects stage 21 because they would have tried with Schmid who will burn himself out today. The team has badly missed Matthews.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Sweeny going for a 54 k solo

 

[Samamba]

Do not underestimate Sweeny, he's in super form

If they get Pogacar out of the Vuelta is mission accomplished for them

 

[proffate]

What is Harry's plan. I guess he heard about the first mover's advantage with the camera bike

The French tarmac must be ageing finer than their wines.
