Tour of the Alps 2021 (April 19th-23rd)

[RedheadDane]

Antonio 6th

Well, I guess when my prediction that Halland Johannessen would be 6th couldn't come true...

 

[Norbea]

Uno-X did not start because of one positive COVID-19 test.

It was a false positive. Feel sorry for Uno-X.

No surprise if Bike Exchange make it easy for the break to take the final two stages,

I lol'd.

 

[The Hegelian]

When on song, Yates is the only who can play with Pogi and Roglic . He's such a spectacular rider as well.

Maybe it's just the new sunnies, but he really looks in imperious form. Maybe a bit lighter?

 

[Poursuivant]

I hope he had timed his form right this season, because S Yates in top form is so good to watch

 

[Vasilis]

Froome is back at the front of a race! In the early breakaway...

Yates is shaking.

 

[SafeBet]

Yates is shaking.

Finestre vibes?

 

[SafeBet]

Break: Froome, Grossschartner, Lulu Sanchez, Pernsteiner, Ghebreigzabhier, Roche, Prodhomme, Valter, Dina.


God, that was not easy.

 

[pink_jersey]

Froomey's gonna be the first one to drop in that break ))

 

[Samu Cuenca]

I've been waiting a long time to see him actually try something in a race. On paper he's the worst in the group right now and with some of them being only two or three minutes behind on GC, they might now make it till the end. We'll see whether he's the first to get dropped or if he is on better form today.

The hero is coming home

 

[Mayomaniac]

Yates is shaking.

Simon is probably having PTSD and Finestre flashbacks.

89	DINA Márton	22:54
98	FROOME Chris	27:00

With 5 guys that close in GC, break will be kept on a very short leash (already are).

 

[Lequack]

I am liking this new breakaway specialist Froome.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

I am liking this new breakaway specialist Froome.

Km 101, the first GPM of the day in Campo Carlo Magno:

1. Dina (Eolo-Kometa)
2. Froome (Israel)
3. Grossschartner (Bora Hansgrohe)

 

[memyselfandI]

If Dawg happens to take sorta training shovel out of his back pocket and starts shoveling good ol' days, I'm afraid it's CN server meltdown 3-2-1...

2. Froome (Israel)

This KOM sprint is his best result all year.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

This KOM sprint is his best result all year.

Never discount the underdawg.

 

[BlueRoads]

Do you think there will be a few second's gaps between the leaders in the final?

 

[HelloDolly]

I'd love to see the break make it ...hope GC guys wait a bit to do there racing

I want to see the break on the final descent

So we can have 2 races ...maybe froome could go on the descent if he lasts the final climb near the front ?

 

[70kmph]

Break are being reel in @38sec

 

[HelloDolly]

Bike Exchange bringing the break back very early ???

 

[Devil's Elbow]

I see Arkea thought their tactics were really good two days ago.
