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

[BlueRoads]

how unfair, if Carthy rides behind Yates... no shelter at all

 

[BlueRoads]

what did Bardiani do there?!

 

[Escarabajo]

Froome is still there!!!!!

Ooops, sorry is Dan Martin!

 

[Mayomaniac]

Pozzovivo and Fabbro still there near thee back of the group.
Edit: And Pozzovivo gets dropped.

 

[BlueRoads]

Ooof, Carthy... I want to bring him to a hospital and force-feed him.

 

[Pricey_sky]

Martinez drops Sivakov lol.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Martinez dropped Sivakov.

 

[Mayomaniac]

Martinez drops Sivakov lol.

Yeah, that was a bit pointless...

 

[Mayomaniac]

Looks like Sivakov is totally cooked.
El puto Yates goes!

 

[Pricey_sky]

Yeah, that was a bit pointless...

I guess his crash yesterday has taken more out of him than he thought.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Vlasov to INEOS confirmed.

 

[70kmph]

Yates flying

 

[Mayomaniac]

Vlasov is looking really strong.
No idea how good he's at altitude, 2 years ago he was bad on the Großglockner 2 days before winning on the Kitzbüheler Horn in the Österreich-Rundfahrt and we haven't seen him on a climb at altitude since then.

 

[Escarabajo]

Martinez wasn't that far off on GC. Probably should have stayed ahead.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Dan Martin doing Dan Martin stuff.

 

[Mayomaniac]

The 2nd part of the descent is pretty technical and has a few tricky corners, a good descender could gain some time.
Edit: And the first guys are already having problems.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Dan Martin unorthodox tumble

 

[Devil's Elbow]

That's one of the more stupid crashes I've seen on a descent.

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

Yates closed to Vlasov breathing through his nose

 

[Escarabajo]

Again, camera work is really poor!

[BigCoward]

That's one of the more stupid crashes I've seen on a descent.

It weirdly seemed like he did it on purpose. Nothing to cause him to fall or stop him turning in good time.

 

[Mayomaniac]

Another crash for Dan Martin according to the race radio...

 

[tobydawq]

Bilbao to take revenge over Simon from Bagnères-de-Bigorre?

 

[Escarabajo]

Bilbao showing them how to do it!
