- Obviously an awesome lieutenant for Pogi.
Almeida will get amazing support for the one week tours but he'll need to mostly park his GC ambitions in the GTs which is a shame.
- OMG - what is with the PCS hate in the comments here. What cycling fan has not referred to their free site or followed along on livestats?
- Or fans could wear clothes with prominent logos of non TDF sponsors! What that happens already!!! Someone please call the police!
- That crash was shocking but it happens, glad it wasn't worse and happy he was able to get back on. Good on the other GC guys for waiting.
- In my part of the world the police don't take it seriously until there is an injured or dead body
- Johannessen diving from the left gutter all the way across the group to follow a move going up the right side was a straight up bush league move at any level of racing. He had clear road ahead of him. Hopefully someone will teach him how not to chop wheels.
- Stalemate???? It's the Tour de France; not the Tour de Tadej. Good grief.
- I disagree, because Simon won 2018's La Vuelta, and would have won 2018's Il Giro, had he not capitulated on Colle delle Finestre (the climb on which he recently redeemed himself). Adam has not won a grand tour, and it was because of his move to UAD that he got the chances that he has got, but ultimately, it looks like Adam Yates will not win a grand tour. In hindsight, it does seem strange that Simon did not move to one of the bigger teams earlier.
- It is usually that if a twin is talented, the other is aswell, but, in these three cases, they are of different strengths. Simon Yates (with 2 grand tours and 11 grand tour stage wins) is better than Adam Yates. Tobias Halland Johannessen is better than Anders Halland Johannessen. Ivo Oliveira is better than Rui Oliveira.
- No wonder it’s stretched out all over, racing at top 3 fastest ever stages after the week we’ve had is bound to make awho,e bunch of less fresh riders suffer.
Have to give it to MVDP, after his 170km 50km/h “solo” he’s animating things again. The GC riders will start hating him for encouraging higher speeds all round.
