Tour de Suisse 2024, June 9 - 16

[Ricco']

Shades of Monaco Fairmont Hairpin on that

 

[Lequack]

Such a ludicrously dramatic finish. Looks almost more like a simulation than real life.

An idea for Zwift.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Damn, Del Toro even outsprinted Kelderman for maximum disrespect.

 

[titan31]

Kelderman rode that climb very well after crashing. He'd have probably been up with Skelmose and Almeida without that

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Skjelmose heading for yet another 2nd place.

It would be his first this season.

 

[titan31]

Was expecting more from Pidcock and Martinez. They lost a good bit there

 

[KZD]

Good win for Træen.

Yates looking in shape to repeat last year's Tour podium and is the favourite for GC here. Skjelmose and Almeida the best of the rest.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Oscar 6th after 3 collarbone breaks in the past 9 months and he's not even really a climber, know I've been banging the drum a lot but he will be great

 

[Mayomaniac]

Gall still in training ride mode.
Went early to set up VPP and then hanging on.
Tour will be a different story.

 

[Netserk]

 

[Keldergoat]

Kelderman actually doing a very decent climb given that he had to ride the whole climb on his own and still finishing just behind the Gall/Mas/Uijtdebroeks group. Quite foul that UAE started riding while it was their rider causing the crash for him.

ouch. good luck challenging Vingegaard and Pogacar.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Froome watching that pre-tour display from Matthew Riccitello with his selection in the balance;

 

[Samu Cuenca]

I was expecting more from Mas after seeing how well Movistar rode in Dauphiné.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Mas in 7th overall and Ujtedbreckes in 8th. Cycling have restored its balanced

 

[TourOfSardinia]

GC

 

[Tim Cahill]

Gall still in training ride mode.
Went early to set up VPP and then hanging on.
Tour will be a different story.

Gall seems like a bit of an Austrian-Superman Lopez type figure, comes to prominence on only the highest of peaks. Today too easy for him.

 

[xuziqiangnuctech@outlook.]

2 crashes in 4days may cost Del Toro at least 50—60 seconds already，he can only aim for TOP 10 now

 

[Rob5091]

Chapeau Traeen & Bahrain - held off a charging Yates (A) who looked in good shape. Bernal looked better too but not Tour winner shape yet.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

So nice of the Peloton to let a rider who‘s never been on the same team as Gino Mäder win the #rideforGino Bergpreis today. (I‘m maybe being a bit too harsh)

more like challenging Remco, has-been GC riders going for stages lol

9" after. Tulett and Blobloblo should have dropped back immediately after the crash.

Of course not. Kelderman isn't Pogacar, he was only 15 seconds ahead of Uijtdebroeks in GC. Tulett could have waited/worked only after the car called that Kelderman was physically ok and that his bike was ok or after he had a new bike. If Kelderman were to have issues due to the impact, you just would have forfeited your other GC rider for no good reason and be left with nothing. Having Tulett stay with Uijtdebroeks as long as possible, and then drop back and do one long pull for Kelderman would have been the best and most logical call.

 

[noob]

No one will ever be as unlucky as Kelderman

Are you kidding? He was super lucky today. Normally he would have broken 3 shoulders and 11 fingers.
