Tour de Suisse 2021 (June 6-13)

[Samu Cuenca]

Guessing Wellens is on the horn to his DS right about now, advocating a change to the Tour roster - so he can get a little support in hilly terrain - the best climber outside of Wellens on the current Tour roster, is Gilbert

I think he's being told, that Ewan doesn't actually need any climbers in order to win stages.

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Kron is either faking his leads, or gassed, the two others are clearly pulling harder.

 

[Broccolidwarf]

They are getting CLOSE

 

[Tim Cahill]

DQ surely, joke of a deviation

 

[wheresmybrakes]

Bit of a dodgy swerve by Costa there

 

[Broccolidwarf]

I think Costa will be declassed for that

 

[RedheadDane]

Costa. Kron not happy.

 

[Bonimenier]

Relegation incoming

 

[sir fly]

Excellent racing ahead of the bunch.
Congrats to Costa.

 

[Broccolidwarf]

I think Costa knows it, that is why he is not jubilant over the win.

 

[Samamba]

Kron should get this imo, this was kinda bs

 

[Devil's Elbow]

That might warrant a relegation for Costa? Kron was clearly faster otherwise. Pernsteiner played that horribly although he probably wouldn't have won in any case.

 

[Eclipse]

Not the sprint the stage deserved

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Hmm, that one is hard to call. I'm leaning towards a dq actually. Kron would likely have overtaken Costa had he not been boxed in.

 

[Samamba]

Costa starts his sprint on the left side, knows Kron is faster and coming, costa ends on the right side. Clear relegation for me imo.

 

[GenericBoonenFan]

Stupid move by Costa, if this is not a DSQ I don't know what is...

 

[saganftw]

DQ him, straight to jail, right away

 

[glassmoon]

Relegation incoming

hopefully

 

[Bonimenier]

Second WT-win for Kron this year. Great work by him!

 

[Cance > TheRest]

Kron was definitely faster and would have come around but I don't think Costa deviated enough for a DSQ

 

[wheresmybrakes]

Looking at that again, he may get away with it.

 

[RedheadDane]

Doesn't look like Costa has been relegated.

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Kron exit interview:

"I don't think that was a regular sprint, well see what the jury says, he swerved to cut me off"
"The last 10K was none-stop hurt"
"Great feeling to finish well today, after my collapse yesterday"
"Much of the break was just riding wheels, that is why I attacked to get away".

 

[Billie]

Costa moved to the left when Kron was still behind him plus he stopped early enough to leave a gap for 1 rider on the left.Not sure what he did wrong.

 

[IndianCyclist]

looks deliberate but might not get sanction

 

[Samamba]

He's gonna get away with it while its clearly against the rules what he does.
