A terrific Trio delivered a fantastic finale yesterday jensson set it up Scout mosa picked their pockets mcnalty in yellow today the edition’s first altitude finish although a change to the queen stage snow and I seeing a switch from oron to the finish of madon D and scosa win has fired him back into

Contention but the hard work really Starts Now I think everyone you know uh Brandon is looking really good Mato is looking really good even plappy is was flying yesterday with a climb not really suiting him and uh yeah of course rco Primos I think everyone in the top 15 is

Is still inside of the podium at least mcnalty will fight to retain the lead but fellow American Jorgenson is just 23 seconds behind and he’s impatient to start not his first time riding these roads I know really well uh if you ask any of my friends it’s actually one of

My favorite clowns in nice um I was super happy to see the news yesterday that they that they found a solution and and they changed it to Mone could it be too late for evapo or Rog glitch or can they produce some magic to give them a chance before par climax

Tomorrow it’s obvious that I need to make time up um I will probably not make everything up today uh but if I can reduce the the time gaps that would be that would be good with the the the stage of tomorrow in mind it’s tomorrow after the stage will be finished I’m so

Far back I don’t even know who is uh who is the leading or how is the standing but uh but uh yeah I don’t really focus I I mean I go day by day and uh yeah trying to do to do my best to do the

Best with the with the whole team uh to to see uh how we can work together and yeah that’s all unexpected but Madel pass is back having hosted a finish in 20 16 zacharin winning ahead of gar Thomas on the Britain’s route to the overall parin title so 104 km with just

One climb at the start and a final 15 km climb with an average gradient of almost 6% a shorted stage on slippery roads a condensed and nervous day for the pellaton losto SLE wasn’t exactly delivering the sunshine three men Brave the cold and rain but soon it was a Duo who went it

Alone Benjamin Toma of kuidas in the company of movie stars Yan Jacobs as they approached the last 50 km just over a minute in hand over the pelaton led by PSE sudo quickstep Vima Lisa bike riders it was a French Swiss collaboration appeared to be on a hiding

To nothing as they headed for The Descent the temperature on the road 5° with average speeds hovering around 40 km an hour and that meant the main group was being stretched out thinly plenty hoping they’d have time to reel themselves back in that included Harold deara stopped for a front wheel puncture

And change he started the day in ninth after a very strong opening six days a fellow aan man helped to get him back towards the Pelon in Hope of contesting the finale the sudo quickstep team still at front an increasingly thin pack a big Miss for Egan Bernal at the end Carlos

Rodriguez dropped out the back the inos man part of T’s group 2 minutes a drift he was a stage 14 winner of the TOA France last year and in big trouble at the head of the race two became one as Benjamin Toma dropped back to leave yobs

Alone the Swiss on his way to the combativity award so we hit the climb and yobs at least has the honor of leading the field onto that final fin Summit that honor was soon followed by being caught and the real race was starting but there were big problems David goodu and bbau

Among the Riders dropped in the first kilometer of the climb all the big guns were there sudo quick style accelerated for evole taking over from inos grenadiers a high Tempo set to make the race harder and one of elimination the important intermediate Sprint at utel arriving soon bonus

Seconds eagerly fought for by the chasing GC leaders and ready to spring out of the pack is Egan Bernal who’s going for these bonus seconds it’s vaner trying to lead out Remco a in the endan vanal taking 10 points and 6 seconds ahead of valer 6 points

And 4 seconds EV ball settling for just the two well during the longest climb of the race while many were being left behind explosive action at the front Remco evol’s move though covered by Jorgenson and mcnalty but then there was a man to make one stick Alexander

Vov pushing hard at the front entering the final kilometer with the stage win Within Reach nty in survival mode while Bor hve appeared to have their first St success of parin he looks over his shoulder gets the signal he needs that he’s there’s got nobody behind him he

Can celebrate this one he’ll R to the line for GC time but he’s got the glory it’s a frantic Sprint for second and the bonus seconds on offer it’s rco AOL that’s going to just about get there 4 seconds now the clock starts to tick was

It 10 seconds at the line well this would have to be inside 33 I think for him to lose that Jersey so he’s just about going to hang on to it oh we’ll have to add this one up basov taking advantage of being no risk to those

Fighting for the title to hand Bora their first parin stage win conquering Ladon dutel for a first win of the season of more significance a first in nearly two years since the 2022 tour of Switzerland I’m really happy to win here you know it’s World Tour stage race one

Of the most important races and especially it is my training Zone and I know this roads and uh yeah I’m super happy to to win here Blast Off winning stage seven ahead of EV pool in RIT no significant gaps between the GC protagonists mcnalty limiting the damage

To come home 27 seconds down the UAE Rider holding on to the leader jersey yet the gaps have tight in Just 4 seconds on Jorgenson scosa and Evano just over 30 seconds down with PL the only other within a minute no change in the points category

As mass Pon is four ahead of py ahead of the final stage though skam Musa closing in Bodo remains with a 10-point cushion the king of the mountain category blov Rising just behind scaron movement possible on stage eight Jorgenson is white and just seconds off the overall

Lead the American with 30 seconds on scosa up to Second EV a third the conditions are likely to be much better come tomorrow another short and nerve jangling stage of foot on a bumpy road to nce the promad de zong awaits but who will be crowned the 2024 champion of par that
