[Tricycle Rider]

Chapeau Onley - fantastic finish Onley and Almeida both!

 

[Dazed and Confused]

absolutely wonderful stage. Very entertaining. Congrats to Onley.

 

[noob]

Alaphilippe not bad

 

[carolina]

Another great performance. Almeida will win this easily on the TT.

 

[saunaking]

wow if ALmedia didnt waste all that energy yesterday he could have took another 4 seconds

It's always a sorrowful day when idiocy goes unpunished.

 

[Rechtschreibfehler]

Well. Almeida has pretty much won this hasn't he.

Scot beats Portuguese and you‘ve switched back from the scottish to the portuguese Avatar before

 

[Mayomaniac]

Vauqelin rode on that weird Bianchi Oltre, but then again, they pros really get them at the billed weight and a puncher like him probably prefers the stiffer bike.
Someone might look into Gall's saddle height or cank length, those knees pointing outwards isn't excatly nice to look at.

Onley should never be pulling with Almeida there.

Onley should never be pulling with Almeida there.

UCI points for a relegation team and he was right to back himself. Probably knew what his limit was and that he wasn't at it – he knows how he feels better than we do.

Alaphilippe not bad

Yeah, could have been worse, but he still finished top 10.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Onley should never be pulling with Almeida there.

He clearly felt good. Starting the sprint so early was not a good choice though, but that didn't matter either.

I thought he was English

 

[Squire]

Well. Almeida has pretty much won this hasn't he.

90% sure. But he needs a decent performance in the TT. Riccitello managed to ship only 38 seconds last year. Pidcock 51, Skjelmose 21. This year's TT is a bit harder, and Riccitello is likely better than Vauquelin in MTTs despite losing to Vauquelin today (and might have been in better shape last year). But there is a universe in which Vauquelin can limit the losses. Unlikely though.

He doesn't know how Almeida feels, and pulling is still always a negative impact on his chances to win the stage.

 

[Brullnux]

I agree, I don't think pulling made much of a difference beyond increasing his chances of coming second in GC. He went about 50-100m too early though.

 

[King Of The Wolds]

Biggest win for Scotland since?

Millar?

Plus for Almeida is that he should get some more seconds back tomorrow. The closer to 30 seconds he is the better.

I won't be surprised if Almeida starts the TT in yellow.
Okay, that's probably too much, but 20 extra seconds are definitely possible on Saturday.

Kämna might even end up 5th in GC in the end, he's resurrected it seems! Wonderful to see!

 

[noob]

Alaphilippe on that podium is something I want to see!
