What was particularly dumb about Phillipsen's move is that it didn't help him. On the contrary. He had van Aert beaten and if he had held his line, he would have been able to block any rider coming up behind and nobody could say boo. It was just a heads-I-lose, tails-you-win decision.

Draft doesn’t play a big role, is it psychological? How would a 2 vs 1 situation play out going up Alpe d‘huez? -how can a team fight a single rider from another team, who is free-riding. …….

Of course you need a good and strong team to do so, but this year UAE and Ineos have better teams than Visma, but still have not seen anything like that from those two.

In 2022 Jumbo Visma destroyed Pog as a team. They had WvA up the road on the galabier as the appetizer and the Gradon for desert. Jonas and Primoz were attacking an isolated Pogacar over and over again. In the end Tadej decided to go up as fast as he could dropping everyone but Jonas. The. At the top WvA was having a Wee and a bike change. Saw them go past an took all the dropped guys back to Jonas and Tadej. You could see Tadej’s face like is it one of those days. Then Jumbo started pacing uphill. Jonas giving him the final blow. He cracked completely. Visma knows how to crack Pogacar. But it takes strategy and a valiant team effort. I doubt they have the quality available to do so this year.

Chris, today Johan Bruyneel showed Strava files from stage 5 from Tadej and Remco. Remco burned 2800 but Tadej only 1600 calories. Looks like Pogi is very efficient in the Peloton. Would be cool to hear your take on this.

Phillipsen getting relegated makes perfect sense with how he sprinted today, I mean what's so hard with going straight pass Wout Van Aert without moving over clear as day to cut him off. I know Phillipsen has talent and he is clearly one of the top Sprinters but make decisions like that and you will not win the Green Jersey. Congrats to Gronewegan🦇 I know people hate him with how he races as well and how dirty he can be in the sprints but I honestly grown on Gronewegan and I would've felt bad if he didn't win a stage this year in the Tour but I didn't think he would beat Phillipsen without the relegation. 🤯👊🦋🦋

Looked like after the split happened Bora came to the front and shut this down after Pogacar had drifted back to see who from his team were or were not with him.

"They've been fighting for their lives for the whole length of this stage." I don't have Chris's inside the peloton perspective, but when they're packed like sardines and no doubt everyone knows who farted when somebody cuts one, life just doesn't seem that desperate.

I didn't understand why Abrahamsen didn't sit up 5k later ...would have earned him 20 more points without having to do too much for that. Most likely he's not going to end up in green but ....if I get these 20 pts handed over like that ..I wouldn't throw them away in that situation.

The side is a bit easier to control than the center. 🤔🦋👊

Today's stage, is kinda meh, until the sprint. Tadej said he wasn't even stressed out with the split. He said, he would come back. Finally Philipsen got relegated. He has a habit of pushing people out of his way. And he has been getting away with it. Tomorrow, there's no bluffing for Jonas. Either he has it or not. Roglic probably the weakest of the 4. So far he got dropped twice. I'm not sure if Roglic was just trying to be there and there about, and wait for the week 3? (since he has a history of fading on week 3). Tadej was so dominant in the Giro ITT, let's see if that's just because he was in a kiddy pool. Ayuso LOL.. I'm sure he'll go full gas, and Almeida won't let him have the fun of it. These two would be fun to watch.

Wout lost 2-3 places because of Jasper. They penalize Jasper but Wout gets no remedy.

UAE Team flatters to deceive once again. Who said knuckleheads?

Why Philipsen has the habit of blocking riders?

The TT seems short, but still requires some high thresholds on the hilly part and has a technical descent. Idk neither but I suspect Remco and Tadej will gain probably 20/30 seconds over Jonas. Roglic is really a question mark. Top three for me: Pogj, Remco and WVA.

It's about time that Philipsen is facing the consequences. There were a few times last year when he should have been relegated as well.

I must say CH is just enough inside baseball analysis to make each stage come alive vs the usual suspects who drone you to sleep.

@dumbyfiddler2376

2 күн бұрын

@goatbloat8233 He has a family. He was annoyed, but he is smart enough to plan on riding another stage than to be laying in the hospital. At the end of the day, it is clear the green Jersey for Wout isn't a priority for Visma or Wout this year. He hasn't been there on every intermediate and sprint finish like he was when he won it in the past. He is clearly marked as a super domestique for Jonas that can help him win the Tour. The team is going all in for the yellow jersey. They are gonna let Wout be up there to take a shot, but super smart to pull the plug when he was being pit into the barrier. He has nothing to lose being up there contesting a win. I forsee Wout getting a chance to win a stage or two later into the Tour. The big man was shut down last year. As a father of three myself, he probably was thinking about other things than winning a tour stage.

Jasper is simply unlikeable. Happy to see him not win a stage all Tour. Remco for the TT, and that will close things up at the top. More pressure on Pog too - can he handle it?

J.P. Finally gets relegated for the samething he did to Wout last year. It's about time they stop him from running riders into the barriers.

Is Jasper a dangerous sprinter? He always seems to be involved in controversy.

Today's riders incorporating the slammed handlebars while in the peloton are spending way to much time looking down and their also glancing down at their computers . look at 70's ,80's 90's riders on film ,looking up and straight ahead every time there on camera .Stop blaming all these crashes on the "oh the riders are so much faster know" line. Roll out a strip of red shag carpet, let's say 3 meter's wide by 20 or 30 meter's long in front of islands or similar road furniture to let the rider's know it's heads up time.

We now see why Sepp opted out of Le Tour. He was nervous to have to do something super-hero-ish on July 4th. Hmm!🤔🤨

I have never heard such an excellent narrative on how a bike finish ended....and yet, you mention Bini all of four or five times during the narrative. Had you watched him as much as you watched the other riders jockeying for position in that last 250m, you would have saw how excellent he kept his line and fought off other riders, shoulder to shoulder, to position himself to have a chance to win this race. But you spoke about every tom, dick and harry EXCEPT Bini...until the end of the race....when 'suddenly' Bini was in third place. A feat that was remarkable if you took the time to WATCH what he was doing, and give more comment on.

Let me clarify my statement....I watched your whole video....I love your narrative....I had no issues with how you narrated it at all....until a certain critical point in the race, where I felt you dropped the ball.....It was at the most critical part, when the sprinters were jockeying for position for the final sprint. For example, from 17:00 to about 17:55, you point out ALL of the six contenders EXCEPT Bini. He is sitting on the wheel of Rolf, drafting off his wheel, in great position, and what do you do? You actually talk about every other contender except Bini in this exciting finish. At 17:58, you finally state that Bini is in the picture, but not quite even.....and your narrative returned to being even handed. That is the only issue I had with your narrative. I love the way you cover cycling. Keep up the great work. I only wanted to point out this glaring moment in your narrative.

Who will show themselves to be knuckleheads tomorrow by riding all out when they have no chance at a stage victory or GC podium? I think G Thomas, Vlasov and Almeida will give 110%. 🛋️🦋🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
