[Applause] [Applause] [Applause] [Applause] A day to Dazzle and yellow for Olaf Koy after beating mad’s at luro finished yesterday the Dutchman planning to remain golden on a longer but flatter stage could we see Pon Koy part two yeah as you say it’s a completely different Sprint so uh the plan is uh to

Try to win uh we have to approach it a bit different but uh I believe we have a good uh good option to do that and a good good train here so everything is possible it’s quite a wide Road running into to to to the town so um yeah I

Think we timing will be crucial and uh we’ll be fast finish others aiming to be in the Reckoning our BNB Hotel wanting to advance Arnold dear’s prospects another targeting a first win of the Season Sam Bennett in his third outing for the kathlin ag2r it’s uh yeah more about surfing the wheels

Um it’s going to be more chaotic I think more sprinters so it’s going to be yeah it’s going to be a difficult one so what did you say to your teammate what to do what to avoid they experience enough and you know with Ali and Dre it’s our first

Race together so we need to get a feel for how we move what our capacities are as a unit and then afterwards we can make more detailed plan but now it’s is more open and reac and you know just using our our experience The main concern ahead of the start didn’t materialize no great wins threatening to cut the pelaton apart on the route to marangi that pointed towards a relatively easy 179 km ride especially after the pelaton passed the two Category 3 climbs after the depart from Ian and through Esson quitting the Paris region finally

On route to lare as the teams would begin to turn their full attention to the inevitable Bunch Sprint attempts made by the pellet on regrouping each time no one in a rush the average speed 35 km an hour the only ruffle came in the battle for the king

Of the mountain points yonas Rush strengthening his position but Mato buado took maximum points at the summit of kid Kono meanwhile Ola Koy targeting another stage success and maybe even another day in yellow despite the Jolly to marangi it wasn’t plain sailing for all the pelaton finally feeling the need

For some speed It’s the final 50 km raised the stakes especially with bonus Sprint points on offer as they approached PUO mad pson in Pursuit by the ad company points and seconds setting up a fierce battle the final lead out from Matt’s Pon and skelm has got a great shot at

Taking some bonus seconds here Danny van poppo leading the way for 10 points and six bonus seconds Pon with second took the virtual lead ahead of Koy but of course the expected Bunch Sprint would see if the D could hold on the two last winners at Moni were

Pure sprinters 2005 it was Robbie mccuan before Mark Cavendish took the honors in 2010 with the overall pace of things in and around 40 km and hour who was going to be the powerful Speedster to follow their example 14 years on despite the long wide roads a bit messy

At times as the team’s focused on getting into position trains ready to leave the station in search of delivering the perfect arrival it’s Matt pson sits in about 10th position at the moment and Coy has worked to do to get into Prime position just yet they’re in one long line and

Heading towards the line inside a th000 met to go on stage two of Barry and it’s a fantastic investment here by theis Lisa bike Squad ofi with a big effort now they start to launch up the center of the road where are they coming from as Sam Bennett tries to latch onto the

Effort of Danny van Popples Bor hrow Squad the moving left and right Matts Pon has picked up on the efforts of the Juda Pro cycling and and S better But Here Comes Danny V with an early effort AR decline arcline for the line har

Decine is going to get this one or is he who’s going to come with a late run it’s got to be oh so close but deine gets it but the shooter Pro cycling Squad and it’s Arvid decine that gets up to take the glory they have bested the world

Tour squads a 12th Pro win but a first on the world tour for Arvid decline the pro team of Fabian Canela Tudor earning a first success at this level a team effort with former world champion mattio Trenton helping to launch the Dutchman to Victory 29-year-old decline powering

To new heights with the biggest win of his career I think I’ve been close a couple of times and I was chasing uh a will to Victory and uh yeah it’s nice to to grab it like this it was an incredible job rather than one of the

Bigger names in the pack it’s double dutch after two stages of parin Klein holding off Lawrence py and Dylan Gran to earn Tudor’s first win of 2024 the young group amama fdj kiwi sandwiched on the podium the consistency paying off with py took over the overall lead successive iums earning the bonus

Seconds needed for the groupama fdj rider to Don yellow tomorrow just as Koy did yesterday it was 21y old py who hogged the jerseys a four-point lead built over Pon with boras Danny Van Poppel third mat Bodo did his work early to earn the pukka dots Frenchman two points on

Roach and no prizes for guessing the best under 23 Rider py will hand green to pson and his white to Koy the first m rendevu of the week tomorrow the team time trial around o will surely see the main protagonists rise to the Top
