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

The camerawork is a bit annoying. Apart from the absolute front we don't get too see much, do we?

 

[Devil's Elbow]

The difference in descending speed is surprisingly big, Yates definitely has this now.

 

[Earns1985]

Any news about riders behind the top 4?

 

[SafeBet]

Sappada vibes. He's destroying the competition.

Any news about riders behind the top 4?

Vlasov was 5th over the climb at slightly over a minute.

 

[Escarabajo]

LOL. Confusing Martin with Froome!!

 

[Mayomaniac]

Le Cobra tried to attack.

 

[MTV]

Go, go Bardet!

 

[Mayomaniac]

The first ascent of the Pillerhöhe combined with the Kaunertaler Gletscherstraße all the way up is on my list for the summer.

 

[Mayomaniac]

When Simon is on he's really one of the most fun stage racers to watch.

 

[Lexman]

A bit surprised there by the lack of power by the Ineos riders, they controlled it rather well then Nairo went off only Sivakov was able to follow and then he blew up with Yates' attack..

 

[Devil's Elbow]

The lack of cooperation in the chasing group makes the Sappada comparison that much more apt.

Yates is just a lot more explosive, if it had been a longer climb and Sivakov and Quintana would have gone their own tempo they might have fared better.

 

[Mayomaniac]

EF and Ineos are not riding smart at all right now. Use your numbers and pull in the group to reduce the gap instead of sending riders on the attack...

Good luck

Yates is the strongest Brit, but who is the best Russian and/or Frenchman?

 

[Escarabajo]

Camera men work not good!

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Hindley has blown pretty badly.

 

[SafeBet]

EF screwed up big time.

 

[Mayomaniac]

The final 4km or so are more of a false flat, I don't really get Sivatkov's move.

 

[Salvarani]

Very impressive ride from Sivakov

 

[Earns1985]

Sivakov is a solid Plan B for Ineos giro, if Bernal will fail.

 

[Mayomaniac]

Simon is no Kamina, but still pretty good.

 

[SafeBet]

To me Simon Yates in top shape is the most entertaining stage racer in the pro peloton.

Huge gaps.

 

[Mayomaniac]

That was an impressive ride by Cepeda.

 

[BlueRoads]

Hm, I don't know. I feel this was a cool stage with a cool result, but the camera and directing made it kind of boring.
