[Alexandre B.]

Andresen had too many leadout men left for his own good.

Aussie commentator keeps on saying Urianstad instead of Bugge, he needs to read this thread!

Lund had too many leadout men left for his own good.

Mielke was speculating if Gautherat made a slight mistake by getting in-between Gudmestad and Lund.

He was also wondering whether Uno-X was sprinting for the Danish duo, or Fredheim... well...

125

Fredheim Stian

Uno-X Mobility

whaaaaaat..?..the stage is over already

They started an hour early because of the heat. It was a weird stage all in all, hopefully the final stage tomorrow will be a bit more regular.

I just noticed that both CQ and PCS got it wrong, having him listed as URIANSTAD BUGGE Martin in the result sheets.
Firstcycling has him as BUGGE Martin Urianstad, and it would make sense they got it right, considering that they're a Norwegian site.

Vine was just being interviewed... I think he needs to start his own beauty product line, he spends just as much time in the sun as the others and yet no wrinkle on him. (And he's already 30.)

I was impressed with the ride of Gilmore. Only started riding during COVID, so lots of improvement to come. It was damn hot today.

Yeah, Gautherat should never have passed Lund so late, it completely destroyed his momentum.

And Brennan... Sheesh...

I looked a little bit and all I really found out is half of Lotto got fines for not wearing race numbers that were visible.
I am wondering if UAE is going to give the Australian race to an Australian, Vine really looks great.. Johnny doesn't have great looking leg speed..

Answer my own post, Johnny crashed out so it's all up to Jay Vine and Yates didn't get an ST from sprint and lost a few seconds, no longer top 10

That last 3km was a mess from the peloton perspective. Riders dropping back from their work at the front left and right carousing a narrowing funnel effect in the bunch stringing it out and gaps appearing as riders seemed unmotivated to stay attached to the riders in front. It looked like a 3rd week sprint stage in a Grand Tour where seconds didn’t matter to anyone.

Verner to the rescue for NSN.

 

[Netserk]

And Brennan... Sheesh...

yeah sad to watch

fiorelli and hagenes too

no coordination, no fight, maybe no shape -- or no heat tolerance

Narvaez has fractured several vertebrae. His classics campaign is over.
