Lanterne Rouge presents highlights of Stage 15 of the Tour de France 2021 where a strong headwind rebuffed any riders wanting to try a long range attack over the Henri Desgrange point of this year’s Tour de France, with the stage finishing in Andorra. A strong break went with

  1. Wout Van Aert said he wasn't really thinking about the polkadot jersey, rather he was there in the group, he has a good sprint and doesn't waste much energy in those sprints, so why not.

    He raced for those points just because, with no specific reason. And it makes sense, since the real points are only present at the Mount Ventoux stage, and the upcoming two mountain finishes.

  2. What if mr yellow, was taking drugs? He showed pantini style attacks in the past, what if, hes just holding back to be not that obvious? His director has a doping past.

  3. Thank you for all the great videos!!
    I was hoping you would comment more on Ineos' team tactics on this stage.

    What did you think of their lead-out and pacing efforts? I was really suprised that once the other teams (especially UAE) had no more domestiques they would take better advantage of their situation. In my understanding they should have kept Carapaz in maybe 2nd or third position with Ineos riders behind that will then willingly lose the wheels so that others have to make the jump and sprint back to the lead-out. I think this tactic is commonly seen in Crits, but I have no recollection of seeing it in tour races. What are you or anyones thoughts on this?
