How many minutes would Tadej have won by if he tried?

Pretty much.... except his face showed little if any exertion

Wasn't Tim Merlier going to win the final stage into Paris?

I fully understand tests during unexpected hours occasionally, but doing it just to two riders ahead of the queen stage makes it look like there's an 'agenda' behind it.

If authorities were fair, they would wake up all GC top 10 riders in the same night. This smells very suspicious.

anybody with half a brain knows why the french authorities didn't wake up french rider Seixas. if they are going to do midnight raids, they need to do them to everybody, not just the 2 riders in front of the great french hope.

He didn't feel right winning so worked for del Toro. But Remco was just too strong and Pogačar didn't have anything left when Torito failed

stoked for Remco. he gets so much crap, and while he is brash, the guy is a fighter. I can respect that.

Ok maybe lucky is a bit extreme but finishing 5th place in a couple stages and having no sprint makes me think his hold on 2nd or 3rd was a bit tenuous. Especially watching Remco’s finish today. He he can compete in the high alps it isn’t inconceivable to think he would overtake Jonas. And IDT too could have overtaken him. And considering the strength of UAE and that Tadej himself is willing to work for Del Toro.
