Vuelta a España Vuelta a España 2024, stage 6: Some random Carrefour - Yunquera, 185.5k

[perico]

Oconnor looks incredibly strong. Sure Roglic shouldn't be worried, but some other teams might regret this.

I don’t know. Roglic won’t be able to bonus seconds his way out of a 3 minute gap to O’Conner. If he has found his legs, he won’t be easy to get rid of.

Bora is doing the right thing. 4 minutes is nothing for Roglic.

The Landa trope : He must be riding for someone else and he can get 4/5th in Tour

Ben O Connor trope : Lose a sh** load of time and go in the breakaway to come 4th/5th

 

[Red Lobster]

This is either a wild miscalculation by the other GC teams or an indication of just how little they respect O'Connor's GC chances.

 

[Peyroteo94]

O'Connor is kussing this Vuelta.

Bora is doing the right thing. 4 minutes is nothing for Roglic.

Almeida might agree as they stopped pulling in UAE after he talked to his teammates

 

[Netserk]

Good development for the race. Right approach from Bora today, but the gap is uncomfortable.

 

[Andre]

ohhh rats!

You are not in the shires now Frigo ...stay on your bike

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Can't watch today, are there Danny Stam and Anna van der Breggen clones in every DS car or what is going on?

What a pretty town this was

 

[Netserk]

You have the out and out #1 favorite, there is 0 need to get this fancy with a guy who was top 5 in the Giro and was up there in GC every stage race he did this year.

The execution is far from flawless, but until O'Connor got away from Lipo, I don't think there was any natural point where they should have changed approach. I don't think they had the strength to ride hard all day and both control the break and additional attackers.

 

[BeachBum]

Bob + Christian thought it was O'Connor at first, now they say Frigo hit the deck

Bro O Connor riding like a god damn moto up front
