Tour de Suisse 2021 (June 6-13)

[Taxus4a]

Seven minutes for the break.., Too much. The peloton have to react soon or the stage is on the break.

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Kron announcing in his intro interview, that he is going to try and attack up the last (and only) climb.

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Matthews in his intro interview, saying he sent Juul a message last night, to ask how to win in Gstaad (Juul won the stage in 2018), and getting the reply "only true champions win in Gstaad"

 

[BlueRoads]

It's over.

Meanwhile Cavendish gets to do Belgium. sigh

Wonder who will take the stage, though.

 

[saganftw]

lame or not from alaphillippe and mathews, why isnt alpecin working for van der poel? he has legit chance to threepeat

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Cofidis pulling the peloton....... quick, someone check if pigs are flying!

 

[DaLong]

At least I don't have to spend time tonight rewatching another electric and thrilling van der Poel victory. I sure hate doing that...

 

[Broccolidwarf]

- and Movistar on a "flat" stage!

It must be opposite day?

they dont have the team to chase all day long

 

[Valv.Piti]

What is it with this year and having weak ass breakaways winning stages

Nothing is over though, and Bissegger isnt exactly weak..

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Reportedly, Alpecin has been doing all the work before we got live pictures.

Cofidis and Movistar hit the front in the last 10 minutes.

yeah matthews and alaphilippe are just pathetic, 2nd and 3d ois still better than nothing....

Well, Cofidis for Laporte and Movi for Garcia Cortina, but, although I haven't seen anything until now I would assume Cofidis started rather late again?

I have said nothing of the sort.

Again?

I don't think I have ever seen Cofidis pulling the peloton before

 

[Broccolidwarf]

i do

Clearly, but you worded it as if you agreed with something I said.

 

[IndianCyclist]

All races are 30-40 k to go. Which one to follow first? Dilemma

yeah i see what you mean Alaphilippe surrendering is disappointing

 

[Broccolidwarf]

yeah i see what you mean Alaphilippe surrendering is disappointing

I dunno that he is surrendering - this is not really a GC stage.

 

[BlueRoads]

yeah i see what you mean Alaphilippe surrendering is disappointing

Not really a stage for him, I would say. Should have been for the sprinters.

Belgium providing most action atm surely

 

[Spine Concept]

The MvDP effect. Everyone is literally scared of him. Both pathetic and understandable.

 

[broppo]

peloton ahs given up, meanwhile eurosport commentators seem to think the peloton will suddenly explode and take 7 minutes in 25 km......
