Jumbo Visma, what a team!!
Team Jumbo Visma had an effective strategy and Vinny is proving that he is the greatest rider in Tour de France for 2 years in a row. I love Pog and I feel bad for him, I want him to win but Jonas is the man. The crowd control though, we are on 109th year of the race, yet the organizer still fail to control those euphoric and ecstatic fans(but not all behave well and intelligently) that causes accidents resulting in minor to race-abandoning injuries to the poor riders.
Tks BigFan
TDF ended today. No more excitements.
Most exciting stage BECAUSE:
PIZZA offered on the final climb!
(an interesting cognitive response, though:
As one of the Yates was nailed for doping a few years back, as soon as the word Yates is mentioned, i tune out. That is likely a common response, and teams, riders, and sponsors who rent them might do well to take note)
Cycling is a raunchy sport filled with massive cheaters.. And it never changes.
What a thrashing. Jonas well and truly has Tadej's number.
I feel Pog is broken mentally with the way the ITT unfolded. He didn't expect that margin hence he's mental strength is gone.
At least Pogi looking human, not like an alien π½ in yellow.
Get the fans off the road. Ffs
Felix Gall did a great job today!!!!
If i were Pogacar, i would like to keep the second place because nobody knows what will happen the next months….
If not hindered by the crowd, JV could have stayed close to GAL!
This TdF is so brutal and cruel. Opening up with already gc contenders battle instead of nice sprinters stage, brutal 22km hilly TT, and a hellish mountain right after that? Damn
Why is Pogacar being counted out already at this stage? Is it because the next stages are mostly downhill/ flats?
I am for Jonas but I am feeling sad for Tadej because I like the way they compete each other in mountains and hoping that he can reduce eving 2 to 3 minutes to jonas in 4 days.
#doping?
What drugs are this riders on I want some πππ
What's all this "queen stage" stuff? We started watching the tour back in 1997 and we were talking about this whilst watching the itv highlights last night; neither of us can remember ever hearing reference to it before…
I'm selling my Colnago for Cervelo. Lol!
Heartbroken for Pogacarπ’
Tadej carshed in spring and missing some days of race. Simple as that. He'll be back next year.
These motorbikes are a joke… Simply as that..
What a Tour. Total heartbreak to see Pogi die on la loze. But what a race these two champs have given us so farβ€ And we only have to wait little less than a year for the next round. Cykling, air, water, food. (Maslow)π
You lot go on like Tadej is dying…
He had a bad day on the hardest stage of the race after over 2 weeks of racing..he is only 24 also.
How many of you amateur cyclists have bonked on a 100 mile group ride that averages only 16mph? I guess almost all of you.
A bad day is really not hard to have on a bike no matter who you are.
I m not happyπΆ
Looks like drugs are back on the menu, bois!
Ahhh bless. There's some fans 'saddle sore' their guy isn't winning. π
finish tdf π badboy jonas
Cheater got out cheated oh I mean OUTCLASSED!!!!! πππ€ͺ
Bernal is riding in this tour?
Poagacr should go to the Vuelta and easily winning it Roglic permitting.
Gostaria de saber qual critΓ©rio Γ© usado para dispor as equipes para a etapa?
Hebat π
Go Pog β€

This TDF has left me disappointed and suspicious. I wish JV would be more transparent with their power numbers, but it seems clear why they don't. I think we're seeing some "artificial" enhancement in this race. It's a shame the UCI and WADA don't have the technology/science on their side to root this out, as I think we're seeing professional cycling ruined before our very eyes. I just can't watch any more of this year's TDF.
That last climb should be illegal, jeez π±
Excellent first time/stage win Felix
Where are the organisers of the tour cars motor bikes spectators blocking cyclists itβs bad there must be some regulations
