The American team was the fastest over the 8-kilometer long course, and have managed to race through it 3 seconds faster than both Team SD Worx - ProTime and Team Jayco AlUla.

- Yeah, I have a vague memory of something like that but it will happen for sure, no matter how much cycling fans can tolerate boredom, the fight for viewers dictates that the content becomes ever more juicy, and as it’s hard to insert cheerleaders or handicaps, this is one of the few options available, they'll just wait until Visma have less clout because all the nation sponsors are never going to be against anything that could monetise the sport.Mistermaumau02-06-2025
- Wout is awesome - he's had a horrible run of luck in the last year, but hasn't whined about it and had just been heads down, riding his heart out. Love him.Crashjames02-06-2025
- Also, aside the bad taste of ridiculing in public, not too sure of his parenting skills coz it sure sounds like he’s already decided his boy won’t have much career choice. if this is the kind of stuff he knows at 5.Mistermaumau02-06-2025
- 100%, Carapaz never took pull only attacked, he was more worried about making 100% sure Del Toro couldn't win than giving himself a chane to stay in the race, it was even worse than 2 french riders together and thats saying something.jad2902-06-2025
- I think Their problem is Pogi, They have so gotten used to Pogi tactics of "Hulk Smash" that they forget that their other riders are not even close to Pogi and need tacticsabstractengineer02-06-2025
- "Follow Carapaz" "Carapaz is taking a leak" "Follow Carapaz" "But Yates is going ahead" "Follow Carapaz" So he dutifully followed Carapaz to 2nd Placeabstractengineer02-06-2025
- A guy like Del Toro came as helper to Ayuso and Yates. his decisions came from the car more often than not. In the Last Stage he did not crack. If only he had fought as hard as he did for 2nd place against Carapaz, he would have wonabstractengineer02-06-2025
- Precisely. If he fought hard and cracked and ended up in third or fourth, there would be zero criticism. It’s the way he lost that is unbelievable. Overall I blame the team WAY more than the lad.mobk02-06-2025
- Geraint Thomas has every right to make those comments, regardless of whether or how he lost the very same race in the past, and his comments are hardly 'destroying' Isaac del Torro. He was being critical of the tactics that del Torro and UAE chose to employ, just as countless others have, because they were terrible tactics. There was no malice or ill intention behind that criticism.
santiagobenites02-06-2025 - Nobody is destroying anybody over a simple loss. But it was Del Toro fault since he had the pink jersey and it was his responsibility. G is not a brilliant tactician either but what he is saying is true. Also the entire fault isnt Del Toro, its also UAE staff's fault. They should have advised him betterabstractengineer02-06-2025
