Finally, about Isaac, “He made a wrong turn at the end and followed the cars at the turn-off”，from Janus Basnov on twitter

Keldermerckx super strong! Blobloblo better know his place.

Del Toro still finished ahead of 5 riders!! Didn't get last place!!

That said, I actually rate Almeida in multi-mountain stages and at altitude. But the bad weather could be a problem for him...

He really seems very sensitive to rain. Not just the cold, but it looks like he just get overwhelmed by the sheer mess of rain. I've thought so ever since tour of Germany 2021. The miserable look on his face as he tried to wipe his glasses. He really looked like he had had it.

I guess that's true for many but maybe even more for him as he's not very flexible (to say the least 🤣) It would be cool if he'd prove me wrong though!

1. Mas
2. Yates
3. Skjelmose

1. Who will Visma be racing for?
2. I don't think Van Eetvelt is in the race
3. It will be interesting to see how Van Gils and Nys do
4. I will also be watching how Lecerf rides...I think he's a future star

Stage 2- tricky finish as there is a 90-degree corner right in the final few hundred meters of the stage.
Edit add - Knowing how it normally is in the TdS there's probably a lot of road furniture too.

Yeah others may have the same problem, he should have finished at least 30 seconds quicker than 5:54

The live timing had del Toro in provisionally 11th, which I think is based on a time taken with ~1k to go. A handful of quick guys were still to come, but yeah, somewhere around 15th would probably have been a realistic result.

Today's final climb is essentially 1.3k at ~9%, so normally steep enough to force a selection - but unfortunately there's a block headwind forecast for the stage. So it could potentially be a bigger sprint than expected.

As if a headwind would stop Alberto Goattiol 🤣

5. How will the CN Forum Most Overrated Rider™ do while working towards his GC goals in the Tour de France?
6. What will Blobloblo's reaction be when Kelderman follows Yates and Skjelmose instead of staying with him?

Those pesky people and their gender reveal parties. Can't believe I missed a Lampaert-masterclass

5 What will Frank van den Broek do after his first ever altitude camp?

There's Cav as well. He said he is looking forward to the final stage.

There will forever be an asterisk next to the name of the winner of this year‘s Tour de Suisse because Fausto Masnada did not start today.

???? Are you being serious????? He is not in the race?????

 

[Ilmaestro99]

There is no announcement from the team, maybe it's just a misinformation. My god I waited so long to see him in this race I was so excited

PCS has him as DNS, but didn't mention it in the live information. Maybe there is hope.

Edit: Now it's also in the live feed.

Guy should've changed his name to Asterisk by now.

"Tour de Suisse stage 2 Live - Cavendish and the sprinters look to grab first opportunity"
are they drunk or am I drunk when I look at the profile?

Well, Cavendish doesn‘t belong in that headline (also, is he not a part of „sprinters“?) and first should be replaced with only, but if you ignore everything, it‘s alright.

 

[Rob5091]

Bling or Herschi (if he's not on dom duties) I'd say are favourites today and tomorrow. Too lumpy I'd guess for De Lie, Démare & Cav

 

[Slavique Nuke]

Laurance or van Gils or MvdB

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Why does the team pretend that Fausto doesn't exist??? There is no update or anything from them. Fausto was not active on social media at all recently, it makes me worry he is having another difficult period.

Today i think Uae will ride agressive with Hirschi, Christen and Fisher Black
