I don't think he's getting green this year.

I was expecting this break to have about a minute by now. They might have looked like they were motoring earlier but the gap hasn't closed.

I'm betting it gets pulled back pretty quickly soonish. Those guys have been in a break for 170km and now it's going uphill.

Ineos probably keeping it slower on purpose, good for them if the break stays away and avoids any Roglic bonus seconds

Powless looks great and GvA hanging on in this climb for as long as he did surprised me. I'm hoping I'm wrong about the break getting caught. I really thought they didn't have much of a chance at the start.

Really, van Avermaet with an attack following Powless all the way up?

Yeah bit of a stinker of a stage in the end, everyone seems worried about expending energy this week.

Pure sprinters being dropped is definitely one of the best parts of bike racing.
|
# ? Sep 4, 2020 13:35 |

Well they've easily got the gap for the intermediate already and they're still pushing downhill, so I guess they're in this for the long haul.
|
# ? Sep 4, 2020 13:45 |

Still not sure who got that sprint

# ? Sep 4, 2020 13:51 |

Sagan is apparently back in the virtual green, trentin won the sprint though

It looks like they're pushing for the time cut. They're trying to permanently thin the herd. Brutal.

There's two groups (and a ton of people) behind the Peloton, but I'll highlight some sprinters. Bennett and his green jersey are about 4 minutes behind. Hirschi, Viviani, Kristoff, Ewan, and Greipel are about 7 minutes behind. It's going downhill (and a tailwind?) now so I don't think they're gonna be able to force anyone out, but some of the big name sprinters are gonna feel it in the coming days.

They've stepped off a bit now.

goatface posted:De Gendt is a good boy. I don't know if he'll survive, but pretty good timing. Bora is probably tired, the gc teams probably don't want to do any work, and the other teams probably don't want to put additional pressure on the two groups behind. Not sure what Ewan would think about it though.

I don't think he's the kind of person to give a poo poo. He felt like going, he has gone.

Crosswinds really do add something to a stage.
|
# ? Sep 4, 2020 15:37 |

It should also add to tomorrow's stage when we get to the Pyrenees, which was already one to watch. A TON of people will want to be in the break to prove something.

Love to tune into the Tour and it's just absolute post-echelon carnage Also, Jens Voigt just pronounced "Froome" with two syllables
