Another crash at the Tour de France on a day that has already seen Mark Cavendish forced to abandon has seen the likes of Simon Yates and Mikel Landa hit the deck.
Starting the day 5th overall, the timing of the crash couldn't have come at a worst time for Yates. The worst man effected however seems to be TotalEnergies Steff Cras who has sadly been forced to abandon the race due to the incident.

- I don’t think that, even at his current level he’s going to be a better domestique than almost any other. Paradoxically, he may even turn out to be more useful if not in top form because then he might not waste as much team energy on personal goals.Mistermaumau23-04-2025
- No doubt he’d have found a mixer for his cocktail to take care of that ;-)Mistermaumau23-04-2025
- Huge loss for Jonas if he can't get his form by July

- No, he has someone who does that for him and selects interesting relevant stuff, and I doubt ANY of the stuff here makes the grade :-)Mistermaumau23-04-2025
- That’s more or less how I see it too. A guy who can win short cyclocrosses, long classics, comes close on some stage races, keeps up with some of the best on moderate climbs and outpowers everyone on steep short ones will have a pretty good reserve for adaptation and specialisation. He already achieved 3rd on LBL after a crash and when not in the best of form without having targeted it specifically, he is CAPABLE of much more than we’ve seen so far.Mistermaumau23-04-2025
- There’s this guy who won the Tour once and has been on GT podiums quite often, similar stature but almost a decade older. Got pretty good at climbing even though he started lufe on the track and was more a TT type. I’ll let you guess and develop your argument (they help to validate or convince of simplistic statements) as to what is or isn’t possible given desire, time and willpower, all things MVDP will have for the time it may take until this becomes a goal for him, so, I say, if he DECIDES to put his mind to it, there are chances he COULD pull it off. Skjelmose beating Tadej last week was also considered incredibly unlikely, until it happened, and only when it did did people start thinking how that was possible and coming up with all sorts of reasons and arguments they didn’t want to accept and even ridiculed in advance.Jumpyjohn23-04-2025
