Wout is insane. Not only did he get himself 2 stages and a jersey but he also was a huge teamplayer helping JV get the yellow in the alps and securing it yesterday, now on a day where he probably could have demanded that the team rides for him, he instead helps to setup laporte to get a French victory on this year's tour. Amazing effort

Lol, Chris Horner spent the first ten days or more bagging TJV and van aert for being too divided and for van aert being selfish/going for stages and green jersey.

Thanks LR. On stage 19 after a brutal Tour its clear the sprinters teams are a shadow of what they were on stage 2 (exhaustion, falls, covid, heat etc) but I believe they were caught napping by JV today. They let WVA pace hard from 10km down to 3.6 km since he and the rest of JV had a perfectly legitimate reason to do so which was protect Jonas, and no doubt some of them would have been concerned that perhaps WVA himself would drop off Jonas at 3km and go on to contest the sprint himself and so they would have been watching him and been relieved when just before the 3km marker he peeled off and then they stopped watching TJV so entirely missing the fact that Laporte was still up at the pointy end of the chase and that he is a pretty good sprinter. They got owned big time. Must have been some hard words in a number of team buses afterward

Every year people say it's not a tour for sprinters, but it's those days when the breakaway just about evades the catch where an experienced head would've changed how the run-in panned out.

Yeah, this tour has had a very dark underbelly of cycling's colonial tendencies. If you ride for a non-European team it is suspicious. If you are from a non-central European country, suspicious. Even the tone from last year this year around the leader is ridiculous. Jonas has not once been questioned about doping despite having a massive step up in overall climbing level (we always knew to expect him to succeed in 40min climbs, but his overall level is way above what he has done previously). Yet no one has batted an eye about it despite seeing no evidence of this overall level until one climb at Dauphinae. I'm not saying it isn't real, it very well may be and I choose to have faith until more evidence suggests that we no longer should (I don't think very imperfect W/Kg graphs give us anywhere near definitive evidence and the science behind the limits of what is capable is not near definitive either). All to say, I just think it reveals some colonial and xenophobic attitudes in cycling that Jumbo and Jonas have gotten no criticism and praise whereas Tadej has been hounded his whole career despite simply performing at near the same level over an entire season year in-year out (a feature most dopers of the past have never replicated. Whereas, Jonas' pattern would fit more nicely. Again, I don't actually think anyone is doping because we just have nowhere near enough evidence to think so, but simply noting the selective bias going on at the moment.)

But yes, I'd like to see how many risks Pogacar will still take to eat into that gap. Sensible move from ITV4, not starting their live feed until 3pm tomorrow, as there's fuck all else to look forward to now. Well, I'm looking forward to Le Tour Femmes (Sun 24th - Sun 31st), especially the last stage up La Super Planche des Belles Filles...

...I said that last night, but sitting here now with the ITT on live and a beer in hand I'm hoping against hope that G quietly monsters it whilst Vingegaard doesn't take too many risks & Pogacar takes too many (not wishing I'll on him btw). That said Ganna's already monstered it...🍺

I feel like if Sagan also would have pushed it at 1.4 to go and gambled, that Sagan would have easily out Laporte'ed Christophe to the win, but Sagan isn't as wily as he has been in years past. This was a perfect storm, but others could have read the situation and done exactly what Laporte did, perhaps even better. But Laporte gambled correctly, and won the kitty. Well done TJV, the tactics all Tour have been 100%

What I don't get is that both Arkea and BikeExchange got 2 man in the top 10 of the stage but at one point nobody wanted to sacrifice himself to bring back the other on the front 3/4. My question is what was Mezgec doing? As for Arkea, Hofstetter or Capiot should have done the work but maybe were they all too far when Philipsen lost the wheel of his leadout.. Also how come Bodnar didn't wait for Sagan to get his wheel back, we can see him watching behind and then continuing to leadout for Laporte, Bodnar looked super strong and I feel like Sagan was too before he blew himself trying to bridge up and Bodnar bottle it bigtime. Philipsen losing the wheel and Bodnar continuing his leadout is the real key moment there. Laporte was super strong tho.
