Finally the time has come! THE Race of the year will kick of this weekend in Brest! Who is gonna do it? Will it be once again a Slovenian duel? Any wildcard favourites? Can Cavendish grab a stage win? What will MVDP be able to do? What stage are you looking forward the most? So many questions and I…

That guy and the mom about 10m further up who grabbed her kid and swung him into the bushes out of the way. Looks like the TdF organizers are trying to find the woman with the sign and are planning on suing her. Good. Make an example of her.

Have they found the OPI OMI dude who caused the crash? I don’t mind ASO going after him just to put a bit of fear in fans’ hearts. :rage:

It was a woman, I’m sure someone will give her up, it’s plastered all over the internet now and is international news. She was standing there while they swapped bikes… police should have grabbed her info right then. They should treat this like streakers / people running on the field. Rally car ra…

I think the internet outrage headed her way will be hard enough. You know how the internet is these days… undoubtedly she will receive death threats and all kinds of other vile shit. I mean, sure, that was a massively stupid fuck-up on her side. Just don´t think, going full ballistic on her will re…

Well I was dead wrong. MVDP said he just didn’t have it. He mentioned that he’s hoping to come into top form in the coming week. It’s very hard to time the anaerobic peaking, you wouldn’t want to do it too early. Alaphilippe looked to be in another universe today. Tomorrow is perfect for him too.…

[image] TheBandit: It’s almost like these first two finishes were designed for him specifically Prudhomme wasn´t exactly shy about that fact :rofl: Yeah Alaphilip did to MvdP, what MvdP did to him at Strade Bianche. Superinteresting to see how important form and peaking is for pros.

[image] TheBandit: Alaphilippe’s 3-6min w/kg must be madness, to just ride away from literally the best riders on Earth… French broadcast was mentioning that he sustained 7w/kg for around 5min.

[image] hdas: He is not making any relevant case by being only 5 secs ahead of Carapaz Why couldn’t Carapaz following the rest of the guys uphill yesterday? He let a 5 second gap open…doesn’t look good for him.

[image] hdas: Lopez and Mas OUT. H Actually it´s Soler who has abandoned. Enrique Mas is very much alive in the GC. He finished with the field at +18 seconds

[image] Pasque: Enrique Mas is very much alive in the GC. Hot take - Mas was dead in the GC before the race started. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
