How great is it to see Egan Bernal back competing at the front of a Grand Tour! The Colombian has been a consistent bright spark throughout the 2025 Giro d'Italia and the former Maglia Rosa winner is doing so again on stage 15.
On the Monte Grappa, the INEOS Grenadiers were attempting to put the rest of the their GC rivals in difficulty in the peloton, with Joshua Tarling and Ben Turner dropping back from the break to do a monster turn on the front. With 92km of the day to go, Bernal then launched a savage attack and soon found himself clear of all rivals except Isaac del Toro and Richard Carapaz, although Thymen Arensman and Derek Gee did manage to bridge the gap also.

- as of the day he rode the TT in yellow at the TDF in ‘21, mvdp has NEVER been in a wind tunnel and NEVER ridden his TT bike a single day except for the days he had to in stage races. that’s day he finished 5th, one second behind wout, and hung on to his yellow against all expectations.OCexile11-06-2025
- well THIS is music to my ears. i’ve always thought — and said here several times — that van der poel SHOULD be a great time trialist, and the only reason he isn’t is that he just never gives his all unless it’s an event HE genuinely cares about, and for whatever reason he’s just never liked TTs. but his natural riding position is beautifully aerodynamic, and he has the ability to empty his tank to a degree that i think is basically unmatched. i hope his passion for this event grows.OCexile11-06-2025
- So he went from not doing the Vuelta to doing it for training. Guillen must have called his bossabstractengineer11-06-2025
- That said, we’ve seen Jonas being real good in TT before but this was really short and favoured others more.Mistermaumau11-06-2025
- People forgot that EVERY rider not past his peak can attain new levels and that no-one can tell when that happens. Last year Tadej and Remco did it and Tadej kind of again this spring but in a different register, this year it’s Mads, and maybe now Jonas? After the jump there is usually a plateau or even a lull before any more improvements so it’s unlikely Tadej will be even better at the Tour whereas it’s likely Jonas could be.Mistermaumau11-06-2025
- Considering the « unlimited » budget they have, that they’re prepared to pay their leader 8 per year, paying a very good domestique who can take over for the leader in emergency or replace when leader isn’t present (winning around 15x already at this age) 2 per year is the price to prevent him becoming a rival at another team until such time as said leader slows or stops. In the meantime, it wouldn’t be in their interest to allow a chap with this character to develop into leader challenging shape so who is to say if he is receiving optimal guidance for developing into a leader beater?Mistermaumau11-06-2025
- I'm not quite ready to declare Tadej DOA. But it is fantastic to see Jonas back at such good form after a lacklustre springmobk11-06-2025
- In your opinion, the UAE pays a multi-million dollar contract for years to retain a talent, but its real goal is to get a good domestic? I don't believe it.
maria2024202411-06-2025 - I believe you are underestimating the influence of entourage, you/we have no idea how riders are being prepared and the target/goal management has in mind (which may not always be what they tell the riders) AND whether they are being optimally trained to bring out their FULL potential or just to be optimal servants, those are two very different roles, like comparing cycling with triathlon riding.Mistermaumau11-06-2025
- maybe allergy, it's spring.maria2024202411-06-2025
