Tour de France Tour de France Femmes 2022 (July 24th-31st)

[Samu Cuenca]

The gap is over a minute now. All the big teams have riders up there, so although a big breakaway almost never makes it (or even exists) in women's races, this could possibly make it all the way to the finish.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Bastianelli tries to bridge on her own, but that might be a bit hard.
Valcar is setting the pace in the bunch. Persico has also vowed to do her best to try and take the jersey from Vos before tomorrow.

 

[Stringer Bell]

What chances this break goes to the end?

 

[yaco]

I asked for a 15 rider break - Only three or four riders can win ( probably one ) if it ends in a sprint finish, so it makes sense to go to the break - Even if this break gets brought back, there is every chance that a secondary break makes it to the final.

It looks like Valcar and UAE have stopped working now, so that increaes its chance to hold on.

But now UAE comes to the front again.

 

[Pirazziattacks]

I swear if UAE and Valcar bring this back for Wiebes I'll lose it. Why?

Perhaps they think they can loose her on the last Cote.

Perhaps they think they can loose her on the last Cote.

They've been chasing most of the stage and then they still have to drop Wiebes and Vos. I don't see it.

Wiebes chrasehd, is up again but doesn't look so well.

Wiebes dropped
because she crashed descending

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Peloton sits up??

 

[Samu Cuenca]

We couldn't really see what happened there, but it seems to be great news for the break.

 

[Rechtschreibfehler]

DSM pressing hard while Wiebes is back, so what is their plane now?

Edit: Not any more.

Ok it's no wonder that no once can get with a bike length of Wiebes when she stays on her bike.

DSM pressing hard while Wiebes is back, so what is their plane now?

They've stopped now so yeah I'd love to know what they were trying to do.

 

[Rechtschreibfehler]

The peloton is loosing time again, you'd think that with Wiebes gone everyone who has a chance would want to get a win now.

The Moment I write this of course they start racing and get closer again ofc.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Le Net did a great job, but with Van Dijk chasing it's impossible to stay clear.

Vos vs. Balsamo vs. the rest now.

 

[Izzyeviel]

watch out for Manly..

oops

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Boh
Vos again

 

[sir fly]

Really strong finish by Vos.
Simply outpowered challengers.
Sorry for Wiebes, though.
We'll see what happens with the Green.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Balsamo doesn't seem to have the top speed in this race. Vos was clearly strongest, though others were also blocked from overtaking her.

 

[RedheadDane]

Nice of Wiebes and Vos to win so much, as neither my GC nor my jersey picks for the Prediction Game has been doing too well...

 

[Armchair Cyclist]

Should van Dijk not have sat up with 1km left and left Vos in the wind? She was racing against Balsamo rather than for her.

 

[Black Betsy]

Van Dijk train best lead-out woman for Vos The Boss

Edit: gutted for Wiebes
