Both climbs where he was dropped had the finish after a descent and with flat ground, giving him the chance to gain back time, and yesterday was his day. Next mountain top finish, Pog will just start pushing 3km from the finish, instead of just 1km, putting a minute on RE. And bar the last TT, he has no chance of gaining back time.

Thanks for the breakdown, Chris. Best in the biz as always. My wife and I had a discussion today and we couldn't come to an answer. If Primoz still rode for Visma, would they have brought Jonas?

Thanks, Chris, and this is a beautiful Tour, lots of different stage winners and Cav's record win and Bini's jersey and all of it has been great so far. But if traditional frame design is mandated, why not something traditional in headgear, too? I admire the aero skills of the helmet designers, and their crafty interpretations of the rules, but the aesthetic is incongruous to the minimalist look which is otherwise held in highest regard by our sport, even to the exclusion of any body armor. I don't understand yet I am happy for science-fiction fans who can wave their battery-operated light sabers for their favorite Fast Bug from the Space Cantina. 😀

FWIW from Stage 8: Van Wilder (23), Healy (29), Jorgensen (40), and Yates (52) all timed at 04.04.50 and Campenaerts (133) @ 04.06.28

I think riders like Campenaerts, Healy, Van Wilder, Jorgensen and Vlasov have some a to play in the team but are also allowed to test themselves. It matters for them but also for the team as a backup or future plan. Ulrich, Froome, Thomas have all been in a similar position. Campenaerts said it may have been the last time he could go all in on a TT if he'll be joining Visma next season and has to save himself for the team. The scenario for the next day may already have been written, so finishing fifth may be a much bigger trophy than taking one more turn in the leadout for De Lie or going on the attack to be caught by the sprinters' teams in the last 10K.

Hey victor was a world Record hour holder , plus hes not wearing that Ridiculous Helmet , so give him some Love

Chris do you think if the UAE chemistry doesn’t work out do you think we could see perhaps ayuso leave the team for a new one at the end of the season as I feel he has his own ambitions.

Most interesting to me: the four opponents for the GC were also the first four in this moderately long individual time trial.

It is incredible... going at 90% or 95% gives them a small rest... They must have a strong competitive urge though to push in every stage, particularly a tt, which is hard to override!

28-30 minutes at 90% of max. heart rate is a tempo workout (for the non-contenders).

I understand Chris' advice to effectively rest the primary climbing domestique of Visma, et al., but how much does it make sense to keep a second option in the fight in case of a crash, etc.?

@ChrisHornerCycling

I don’t want them to completely go easy on the stage. I just prefer them to lose about another minute. Not the top eight from stage 4 though like Landa, Ayuso, Almeida they are climbing good enough and could be threat in other ways. But the others only have one and half option left. Rode for their leaders or hope they get an a break and the half is that they are allowed to go away in a break which means they can’t be close on GC. Both require good legs. 👊🦋

For Jonas to be a mere 1min 15sec off the lead is amazing given his injury and slow recovery and in the post race interview you could see he genuinely was pleased and as he said his super strength is long high mountain stages.

Right per usual. Team Visma absolutely should have had Mateo and Wout ride easy and used others as makers for Jonas. Team isn’t strong enough.

Almeida faster than Ayuso must make him feel good. If he’d have been a couple seconds faster Almeida would have hopped over Ayuso in the GC standings which would have been doubly sweet.

Nice comments on WvA! Guess you are right. But ... on stage 6 it would have been really hard even without Jasper interfering again. They should have punished him last year already. But Le Tour and A.S.O. are mostly looking only for the money and not for fair play in sports. Bad habits. But as we all know awarness and money are rising on bad news and lies and nothing is better to sell than a hero like Cav or Jasper. Last one was on stage 5 causing the accident of Mads Pederson with his turning from far right to far left. UCI rules are clear: "Sprints 2.3.036 Riders shall be strictly forbidden to deviate from the lane they selected when launching into the sprint and, in so doing, endangering others." But Le Tour does not react. If they would have reacted on Jasper instead of Phil Bauhaus, WvA really might have won stage 6. Yeah man that's life as we know it. Do not mess up with the big guys, that is dangerous.
