Tour de Suisse 2021 (June 6-13)

[Scarponi]

Absolute destruction

 

[Carols]

MVDP!!!! What can you say, simply among the Best!

 

[wheresmybrakes]

Ala being tamed, no longer has it

 

[RedheadDane]

That guy is impressive.

 

[woodburn]

Who was second?

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Easy win, and it probably didn't matter that Matthews was blocked by Alaphilippe.

 

[BlueRoads]

I mean van der Poel was too strong anyway, but how bad was that lead-out/ sprint of DQS?

 

[Scarponi]

Who was second?

laporte?

 

[RedheadDane]

Who was second?

Laporte.

 

[dercuforever]

Petition to give MVDP 90 ACC in cycling manager.

 

[jaylew]

Matthews a little frustrated with Alaphilippe there. Kinda prevented him from chasing VDP but I don't think it would have mattered.

 

[Bolder]

Ala being tamed, no longer has it

To be fair, no one beats Vdp in that situation. Alaf fading Matthews into the barrier tho...

 

[TourOfSardinia]

GC

 

[DaLong]

That was pretty reminiscent of peak Sagan, as the announcer alluded towards.

 

[titan31]

Should just ban Alaphillippe from sprinting in a bunch. He was swerving all over the place there.

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Must be incredibly frustrating to be Alaphilippe, after the emergence of MvdP.

The very weapons Alaphilippe used to use to win, are now being used against him, by someone who is both stronger and faster.

 

[MrTea1976]

Carapaz is looking good.

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Should just ban Alaphillippe from sprinting in a bunch. He was swerving all over the place there.

Yeah, it's incredible he doesn't get declassed more, he is such a dirty sprinter.

It's also highly ironic, that everyone hates Groenewegen for doing the same thing - to a much lesser degree - while Alaphilippe suffers no consequences.

Nobody has nearly died because of Alaphilippes sprints yet.

 

[titan31]

Nobody has nearly died because of Alaphilippes sprints yet.

Probably cos he sprints less. If he went in every bunch sprint, no one would be left

 

[Spine Concept]

Nobody has nearly died because of Alaphilippes sprints yet.

So we should just wait until somebody does to take action?

 

[Spine Concept]

Probably cos he sprints less. If he went in every bunch sprint, no one would be left

It's funny cause it's true.

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Nobody has nearly died because of Alaphilippes sprints yet.

But that part is a coincidence - the action is the same but the outcome varies.

 

[jaylew]

Not really a coincidence since Ala doesn't usually participate in large bunch sprints

Doesn't matter if it is a bunch sprint - in principle it could be a heads up sprint.

You only have to put one guy into the barrier, to create the accident, so whether there are 50 other riders around or none, is besides the point.
