If Martinez learns to descend he'll win a GT.

I take back my comment about him looking weak. Hes just killed Yates.

You have to wonder how much Ineos are paying if a big team that actually needs a great climber like Movistar couldn't pick him up

Movistar are a poo poo house team though. They wont get any top talent until Valvede is gone because of how loving toxic he is.

Well Froome is popular, unlike really good Colombian cyclists who definitely don't have their own rabid and passionate fanbase.

Yeah but South American sports fans don't fall for sportwashing anywhere near as much as dipshit Anglos so Froome is still probably better for their team goals

I hope all teams take the right lessons from this stage: 1) you miss 100% of the shots you don't take, 2) trying to make something happens rules to watch, 3) Romain Bardet bad man

I'm surprised everyone online is shocked Caruso attacked. He's the best TTer of the GC riders, he's the one where he could conceivably win if Bernal cracked again and he got within a minute of him on GC.

Yeah I'm really glad DSM and Bahrain tries something, it put Ineos under big pressure early on. Bike exchange can get in the bin.

Just looking at the stage 1 results and Caruso put 7 seconds into Bernal over 8.6km so there's a 1% chance he gets the virtual gap down to under a minute and bernal eats poo poo out of a corner trying too hard.

Yates dropping at the end probably explains why BEX didn't go on the attack.

Quick reminder this was the Ineos B domestique team. Thomas has the other Yates, Hart, Carapaz and Porte for the mountain's in France.

If it was Nibali they’d put spike strips out in front of Bernal
