Class stage today and great finish, so close for Hirschi!

    Hursty
    Pipped at the post. All that hard work to finish 3rd.

      So Team Sky have finally begun there descent back into the ranks. I’ll give them one more season before the team folds or is bought out and renamed.

      Massive kudos to Jumbo, they have an amazing team, van Art up that climb yesterday was devastating, what an absolute machine he is to drop big name climbers like that.

      Podgacar is also an absolute beast, so young and without much help, I can see the GC going all the way.

      loving it

        Hursty Big day on the Queen stage today. I’ll be watching while working from home of course!

          Bernal abandons.

          To be fair from his interview yesterday it sounded like he was in considerable pain.

          He’ll be back that’s for sure

          What a finish!! Can’t believe it. Pogacar is an absolute machine!

            what a race by Pogacar. I take it Roglic wouldn’t be allowed go for it on the last stage today & claw back the time he lost yesterday.

                Dubman Unfortunately not, etiquette dictates there is no racing in the GC on the last day.

                The only way he doesn’t win is if he doesn’t finish the stage due to an accident or something like that, which is highly unlikely.

                  Along_the_Wire Yeah, not the time to have an off day, but that’s Grand Tour racing.

                  He’s definitely got it in him and the team to succeed, it’s going to an exciting 2021 TdF that’s for sure.

                  The old boys on the tour must be shitting themselves though, Evenepoel, Pogacar and Bernal are all the real deal.

                    Along_the_Wire Do you reckon he’s another Quintana? Loads of promise but it just doesn’t work out for some reason.

                      Time trialling is fucking rock hard - I’m a dribbling mess at the end of mine.
