35-year-old Geoffrey Soupe is often seen working in the service of others during bunch sprints as a lead out man.
Given his own chance to shine on stage 7 of the 2023 Vuelta a Espana however, the Frenchman for TotalEnergies grabbed his opportunity with both hands to take a stunning stage win, the first Grand Tour success of his career.
Now you can dive right into the thick of the action yourself courtesy of new footage revealed. View the sprint from Soupe's bike and watch as the likes of Kaden Groves and Filippo Ganna struggle and are ultimately unable to come around the bearded Frenchman.

- Luck is when Issac Del Toro and Carapaz get a puncture and Yates gets 30 s. Stupid tactics of others is not considered luck. Yates won by 4 minutes. There is not way he gets 4 unless the people behind him acting out.abstractengineer05-06-2025
- Corruption is the secret ingredient. Otherwise, the only other explanation for the poor state of cycling is they're not funded.
KerisVroom05-06-2025 - Giro 2025 is like Tour 2008 when Carlos Sastre won atop Alpe d'Huez. He should like ride Cadel Evans winning in Tour 2011.

- This is pretty much a low bar for a star rider. Domestiques from other teams got higher GC rankings than him. Either he has to really train for those 1 hour climb or give up on GC hope altogether. Not a fan of Pidcock, but I think he's definitely capable of doing better if he really trained for long climbs, which his coach said he didn't. Best of luck to him.KerisVroom05-06-2025
- Nuh, realistically, Jonas is the only main rival unless some accidents befall Tadej.KerisVroom05-06-2025
- I just simply don't believe team orders were at fault. In what world would a pink jersey leader knowingly throw away their lead just to follow team orders? Del Toro surely knew the gap to Yates was growing and he was going to lose his lead. So either Del Toro didn't have the legs or he was stupid and listened to alleged team orders to only follow Carapaz. It simply does not make sense - I mean even if the team orders were true, Del Toro shouldn't take it literally e.g. if Carapaz crashed and all the other top ten riders went 3mins up the road, would Del Toro really be stupid enough to "follow team orders" and stick with Carapaz? This is an exaggerated example, but it is exactly what Del Toro did with Yates. Del Toro only has himself to blame - if someone is threatening your lead, you chase, it shouldn't take team orders to tell you to do that!Pogboom05-06-2025

- "The idea was we’d race to win every day – or every day that suited me – and do the best GC I could." It was supposed to be "either or", not "and". The dreams of GC glory are confounded by the lack of recovery. He should have stuck to stage wins.abstractengineer04-06-2025
