Pogi's bottle attack was great. Pogi's second attack with Jonas gripping the wheel was even better. When Remco and Carapaz came in with them at the line it just kept getting better.
We're in for a great July 🦋
👊🦋🔥🇫🇷🍼
Nothing like Tadej and Jonas in the same frame at the Tour.
Tadej's 'water bottle attack' was like the 'ol hold your hand out as if to shake hands then pull it away to brush your hair back 😉
Ah, one more thing: observing Remco - more precisely his attitude - and I'm very pleased. The young gun, who was overly cocky at times in the past 24 months, seems to be a lot more grounded. This could be the right recipe for bigger successes - not at this year's TdF, but later.
Love him, he is funny and super cocky. And absurdly strong
Remco is learning. Hi did not follow Pog and VINI right away. He waited for oxytocin come back to the muscles and then he started working. I am more afraid what happened to Primos?
The doctor who operated Jonas might have modified his lungs' capacity or added him a third set of lungs😂
That's what I was thinking!
Does anybody know his name? I could use some new ones.

My man Victor Campenaerts! I always think of Chris when I see this Lotto Truck at the front of the pack! 🙂
Chris, really excellent job figuring out how Carapaz and Remco came out of the chasing pack. Everybody else is like “somehow Remco and Carapaz is in between the groups” and you are the only one that looked through this frame by frame and figured out that Remco and Carapaz came out at the top of the climb. This is why we come to you for race analysis. You are the only one that does the work to figure out these details.
And the only one to spot and comment on Roglic 👍
JV has done an amazing job to get back so quickly. Good to see Egan making the top ten also.
Chris , Mea Culpa on my part! Never thought Jonas could come back from the crash. So happy to have a race on our hands.
😊The only person I want to see after the race!!! Thank you boss🎉🎉🎉
🇫🇷👊🦋
Same
Jonas only used one lung yesterday, the bad one. Just wait till he starts using both in week 3.
TDF has got to do better camera coverage of the GC contenders. Remco and Primoz were ignored (lost) during the Cote.
I can finally go to bed now! Thanks a lot Chris and Garret! Greetings from 🇧🇷
💤👊🦋
🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
So do I!
Greetings from Brazil also!!! 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Thankfully, this tour could be a masterpiece battle once more
👊🤞🔥🇫🇷
Very well riding by Visma-LAB: 1) everybody did his part today and saved energy when the job was done. 2) They worked as a team (inspired by the book Legacy by James Kesrr) 3) they were in front not to get the group in the front back, but to have the distance 4) both times they were in position at the start of the hard climb, knowing it was going to be small.
Finally: Impressive how Vingegaard is riding, considering the crash earlier this year.
✊🤕 I call out the NBC coverage. Watching the finish and nothing about Remco or Car until 10 seconds from the line and they just appear. Euro Sport was updating the whole time on the descent and we knew they were coming.
Also another fan ✊🤕 today woman with cell phone hitting EFE rider in the head.
I miss all the Eurosport coverage. 🥲🦋
@@ChrisHornerCycling I'm in Hood River, and I watch Eurosport... it's possible. ;)
NBC is UNWATCHABLE at this point. Horrible coverage.
I saw that too. Of all times to get on the phone? She'd probably been waiting a few hours for them to pass. So hard to police the fans. I just find it so disrespectful of the riders to pull this crap. These guys train their arse off to get to this race
Yeah such a shame that Peacock didn’t include world feed.
Woop! 🎉🎉🎉
p.s. name issues today? 😉😉😉 when we do it we call it namelexia 🤓 Thanks for covering Roglic's position because NBC never did!😢
Hehehe. Even my old teammate I mixed up with Powless. Poor Mike suffered over the climb and attacked the break only for me to get his name wrong. At least Garrett caught it and fixed it. 😂🦋👊🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋.
🧸
Thank you for 'namelexia'-term. I really that medical term in many situations ;)
The technical term is nominal dysphasia 😉
We have a race on our hands! 👏👏👏
👊🦋🔥🇫🇷
Thanks team Horner, for making the TdF even better than it already is! 🦋👊
That acceleration by pogi was insane but Jonas covered the move faster than previous years like he’s more fast twitch now 😯
Agree Vingegaard's response was impressive. Also, you can train for distance and watts - much harder to train for explosions. And Pogi left everyone else behind in the dust as he did in the Giro.
It was quite explosive form Pogi and I was impressed with Jonas’ response. I was thinking at the time it speaks to how fresh he was at the moment, and that he definitely was feeling good!
Looked like Pog didn’t want the yellow yet and kinda took it by surprise. He seemed unsure in the ceremony didn’t he?
When you have the yellow jersey, it's also a huge target marked in yellow for you. In a 4 horse race like this, and the quality of the field, it may not be the wisest to get yellow so early in the race. It's is a game of fox and hounds. Tadej may not want to be the "fox" so early in the Tour.
Yes, he said that in a interview for a Slovenian TV.
Great coverage. I think it would be great April Fool's day next year if Chris posted a race and made up all of the riders names :)
Hehehe. Today I was making up names left and right. Well, all the names exist but I was taking half from one rider and mixing half of another. 🤪🦋👊😂
Do you think if there was a "Classique Chris Horner" (p/b Chesterfield Furniture of Bend, OR) that a few people might show up to race?
@@ChrisHornerCycling best celebrity version I could think of last night was "Tom Jones just attacked Frank Stallone" :)
Watching the tour is fun, but watching Chris is more fun 💜
Lemme tell you, when Tadej waved at Vinny like “naw, go on” when he was up front, I actually laughed out loud… 😂🍻
I watched the whole race and I must say you did it justice Chris. I am most impressed with the amount of time you allotted to each event within the race, just the right amount of detail and energy.
Most impressed by Jonas and Remco as well. They are looking to atleast follow Tadej, no matter what! Carapaz got a free ride down the descend and flat I believe 😂
That's carapaz for you. Faking it til the line is in sight. The guy never works for anyone. That's how he podiumed when jonas had his breakout year and got 2nd
The racing today was fantastic and so was your round-up Chris. What a show you all put on. Wow!!! This race has the makings of being a classic. Now lets see if Mark can make history today. Ohhh boy l truly hope so.....🚴🚴🚴🚴🚴
I don't think TP even start to get serious. He was just diping his toe in the water to give it a little look. Way too much is being read into this short, medium degree climb..
But based on last 2 tours and the last Vuelta, Jonas typically peaks and excels in the later half of the tour where the big mountain stages are and can drop Pog. Why wouldn't UAE want to put as much time as they can into a compromised Jonas on a stage that supposedly should have favoured Pog? I think UAE tried and did the best they could, but Jonas and Visma were able to match them. I may be wrong, but I think Visma and Jonas will conserve energy and do just what they need to do in the first half of the tour to stay close, and then dominate in the latter mountain stages.
Fantastic stage! Edge of your seat 😎
Good stuff 🔥👊🦋🇫🇷
Two Frenchmen win from the break to start this off. Will this be the year of the breakaway?
I guess the french found Jumbos orange juice from last year pretty strange since 1968 tour de France no french riders won the first 2 stages
It could be. 🤔🦋👊🔥
Hoping Primoz proves us wrong on stage 4.
It didn’t help that Roglic was out of position in the climb. Maybe he was cutting the calories short. Who knows, maybe just a bad day, let’s hope. 🤔🤞🦋👊
@@ChrisHornerCyclingmighty early to have a "bad day" on stage TWO
@@ChrisHornerCycling he said for a Slovenian TV that he had bad legs / bad day and because of this he wasn't positioned where he wanted to be.
6@uroskra77 way to early for a bad day. Anything over day 10 is fair enough but day two? I don't buy it. Both doms for him where in position. He's not paying attention. He shouldn't be anything less than seventh wheel if he's serious about winning. We'll see after stage 4 if he's still leader. He may be riding for vlasov or hindley if he doesn't wake up unless he's riding for $ instead of winning.
Now I can go to sleep knowing I’m updated. See you tomorrow!
💤🦋👊☀️
Looks like TP was dropping back at the finish to not get yellow jersey? Thoughts???
Correct! He admits that to Remco after the race.....
Totally!
Yes! He knew if they all scored the same time he would get Yellow, so he soft-pedaled the sprint to try to create a gap to let Remco have it, hence that post-race cool-down interaction. Maybe a kind gesture to the Belgian, but I think an attempted tactic to let Soudal defend the jersey on stage 4 so UAE can sit back and mark Visma.
Nah. He was upset that Jonas wasn’t working. So he just backed off. 🤔🦋💪👊🔥🇫🇷
@@ChrisHornerCyclingNo, find and listen to him talk to Remco after the stage. He didn't want yellow.
I’m not tactician, but I feel that this has always been the plan for UAE. That’s why they brought all the climbers. Today They are testing JV. They are just testing the team, only Jonas could hold his wheel. In the mountains I feel that UAE is gonna consummate this plan and do to JV what jumbo Visma did to TP. Isolate and attack. Visma can no longer cover that attack. It’s only a matter of time till JV can’t hold it. Remco is remco. He’s gonna keep doing what he’s doing fall out of the favorites. I was surprised about Primoz, wasn’t expecting that
All Jonas has to do is watch Tadej. UAE will crumble in the heat then it’ll be him vs Jonas.
@@chevyrydah04 I get the sense for JV, this will be the tactic. Follow and wait, follow and wait.
JT and Visma.. always been shady as hell and this just shows - back to the same old bs
Have you noticed that for past two days Almeida was hidding, I suspect that on Tuesday there’s gonna be be big attack either from him or Soler.
And if that are your theory then you too should have many hours of satisfying hours watching if that comes through, right? That are part of the beauty of this race. MANY theories can be had but only reality of each stage show how that theory hold up. Last 2-3 years have been best Tdf´s in my memory and this years first two stages have been best start stages in TdF history in my opinion (NEVER another 1st stage TT again in my opinion). That Pogocar had heightened Covid values 2 weeks before the start and Jonas had his awful crash in April makes these two first stages even more impressive for both. There are no givens. Only time will tell if both reach Paris.
Vive la France !
Happy to see some satisfaction to our hosts' expectations, and a new name to follow.
Thanks, jeune homme! (Chris) and Garrett 🎬📽🎞
🇫🇷🦋👊
Great race today. Gotta give it to that young uno x rider he was a beast today.
The other Jonas!
Game on. When JV got out of the saddle behind TP on the climb I thought he’s going to drop the wheel but JV did a great effort. This is going to be a great battle.
Stage 4 will be so telling. Can't wait. Also, go Cav on stage 3.

👍 Phillipsen Monday? A Chance for

There was no smokescreen, those who watched the released videos regularly know well that he will be in fine form. You just have to analyze the data, and not fall in the storytelling trap. However, Pogacar problems with temperature are always concerning, and he looked a little tired. Temperature could be a deciding factor for this rivalry.
Thanks team Horner, for making the TdF even better than it already is! 🦋👊
I think Tadej at the arrival tried to avoid getting the jersey, I think he was even trying to get a 1 sec gap just to be sure not to get the jersey
It definetly looked that way, he even jumped out of the finishing group not to be in the front before finish line.
Why didn't he brake to get a gap then?
It was indeed intentional. He apparently said it to Remco after the finish.
I thought so too. Hard to believe he can think of that during such a tough stage and race. Very Smart.
As we say in the south ,this was some John Brown racing !!!!! Great coverage Chris ! When we listen to the guys on Peacock cover the race and then listen to you, well ,there is no comparison !!! My wife and I are sitting on the Chesterfield as you would phrase it and wonder ,what's up with the suits and ties !!!!!
Roglic is probably already regretting changing teams.
it's a two horses race
A short punchy climb like that is where RE should perform well, and yet he got dropped anyway.
Comes the Galibier, he will be back with the rest.
The only reason why we might not see the same gaps as at the Giro is that JV and TP will be controlling each other. Otherwise, TP could have already put 20-30s on the rest
Great summary of an exciting stage. Looks like Vingegaard was sandbagging everyone at least a bit. He looks like he has the legs early but it’s a long 3 weeks and he did miss some training. Pogacar was on the offensive but at the end it looked like he didn’t want yellow just yet. Be interesting to see if it changes UAE strategy if he’s still in yellow at the end of the day tomorrow. It was Evenepoel that was spectacular on this stage. It looked like he was dropped a couple of times but he just magically reappeared with the leaders when it counted. Great stage.
Remco is TT WC and the stage ended with a long flat. You can see him pulling Carapaz TT-style all the way to the line.
Well I'm glad Pogacar has the Yellow Jersey, but today's stage was not a hard finish to drop Vingegaard enough so of course he can follow Pogacar up the 3rd category climbs and then flat the rest of the way. No doubt Vingegaard has form right now on flat roads and little climbs, but Pogacar attacking made no sense to me cause it was flat after he attacked like how is he gonna gain time on Vingegaard 😂 I think we need to see how Vingegaard does up an actual mountain finish and can he not get dropped from Pogacar up a mountain. Other than that I'm glad it worked out either way but he could have saved energy since it was a flat finish and he wasn't gonna lose Vingegaard.🤨🦋🦋
Pogacar was testing his opponents tbh..he did not go too hard, he wanted to gauge their responsiveness and form
Don’t let some of the people hear you say this. They will try and tell you that Jonas staying on Pogs wheel after a 5 second acceleration (watch the video, it’s literally 5 seconds before they go right and left under the arches) means that Jonas winning the tour is a forgone conclusion.
Now don’t get me wrong, this shows some form from both as they did manage to gap everyone but Carapaz (lol 😂.. Carapaz) but this was such a short effort and these guys had a pretty easy day up to this point.
Glad to see Jonas, Pog, and Remco showing form. But some people are talking so definitively about the race. Just silly talk. Whatever happens after stage 4 I’ll start to listen though!
Exactly right - today doesn’t prove too much. Let’s see the mountains first.
Pog tried to slow at the last to give yellow to Remco....Pog will win at the end, but he does not need or want yellow so early with so many GC with same time
Jonas has some that’s for sure. Pogi too 🇫🇷🔥🦋👊💪
Abrahamsen is having a good season, I thought he was being a bit ambitious yesterday sprinting for everything in the break, but its paid off for him.
Yes it did 👊🔥💪🦋
Vingo proves stronger on longer and harder climbs
Bora wanting Dsm to chase and losing time in GC is just the top of knucklheadism.
Hindley and vlasov where in position for the final climb. What do they have to do....tie a rope to his bike so he doesn't get lost?
I think bora knew that dsm CANNOT cover the move..but bora had bad legs of roglic and have to wait for him
my man Victor Campenaerts 🤜🤛
Could Tadej & Jonas not keep away from the other GC riders? Or did Jonas slow it down because he wants other teams helping him chase Tadej in further stages? Or is it something else?
They just slowed. I wouldn’t read into it too much other than that.
I don’t think Jonas was actually pulling hard or even long enough. Which caused Tadej to slow up. I think it was foolish not to really gap the other gc contenders.
@dorianwaller8796 yep jv only went hard when he and primoz were trying to drop kuss in spain
Jonas was especially carefully (very smart of him) not to over do it. So Pogi backed off also (very smart of him also). Then Remco and Carapaz made it. 👊👊🇫🇷🔥
@@dorianwaller8796 I agree it did JV no good, they probably could have made a gap that remco could not close.
Same old JV. Same old shenanigans
🤪🦋🇫🇷🔥👊
My heart wants Primoz to win but it looked bad today. Did he get any benefit from saving energy in the remnants of the peloton that might pay back the 21 seconds? It's only 2 days until the Galibier. I'm guessing that will sort out what's what.
His doms were in position but he wasn't. The guy should know he must be riding no less than 7th wheel coming into the final climb. He used some excuse about bad legs but no one is buying it....just sloppy riding. He had to work to get himself back to both hindley and vlasov. Not going to cut it with the quality in the field this year. I go as far to say he'll be riding for stages and his doms this year. Hindley or vlasov will be leader after stage 4
Im not sure Mark Cavendish will survive past stage 4
I miss hearing your thoughts on NBC, but I love the channel. Thanks for your dedication!
P.S. for the rest of my life, he'll forever be MyManVictorCampenaerts. It makes me smile every time.
Knucklehead count: 0
Zero today 🤪😂🦋👊
Oliveira was a knucklehead pulling hard for guys he knew would drop him in the climb
@@ChrisHornerCycling What about Vlasov not being close to Roglic when Pogacar attacked. He was about 15 meters in front.
Primoz gets the knucklehead award today. Riding anything under 10th wheel is just vacant approaching a climb when he must know the attack is coming and then saying he didn't have the legs on the 2nd day of the race. No one is buying rog
And zero solerasim till the moment
TDF is shapin up!!! French guys are winning in Italy and the GC group is getting thick. I may need a sprint stage just to calm down lol
As i said before, Jonas is fine. Not like what everyone is worrying about. VL has been bluffing. Stage 4 will be the last test. I expect Jonas will glued to Pogi's wheel. Roglic is the one that a question mark He said he was way too far back. So that means positioning? Sounds like he hasn't gel with his new team. Plus he got no leg. Sounds like double whammy. However if he got dropped in Galibier.. well,... not good mentally and we might see 2 horse race. And, Remco? He is always flying on the first week. So no surprise there.
Did Tadej and Jonas equal or break Rusty Woods' record here. I found it was 5:25 which would be the same time. Good to see Billy Carapaz up there, dude is always dangerous. Why did Tadej get yellow though if 4 others are on the same time? This stage proves that there are usually only 2 maybe 3 favourites. But hopefully it stays tight for as long as it can or even stage 21 TT😊
Pogi is an exceptional rider, and he has a strong team. Jonas is better than I thought (considering his injuries), but his team is not that strong. What happened to Remco when giving interviews??? He used to be very cocky, not anymore. No more blunt statements. Being humble. Did he follow media training? I kinda miss it already. Journalists are trying, and he simply replies the top 5 in the general classification, and a stage win is the goal.
Was Abrahamsen riding like a knucklehead? He disobeyed his boss and took the early sprint because he wanted a green jersey. The green jersey was not the teamplan, the plan was sampling polkadotpoints to keep the polkadotjersey as deep as possible into the tour. Did that sprint cost some seconds in the final climb? If he had dropped back less than 20 seconds he could have had a chance going for stage victory. Jonas Abrahamsen was impressive, and he might be the largest muscleman ever to hold the polkadotjersey for several days. Tadej, Wout and Mathieu will have some competition in the classics.
Love that guy's spirit and Elan. Big win for UNO X.
Chris, I’m confused. Why on stage 3 is Carapaz in yellow with same time. Also, why is Jonas same time as Remco and Tadej when he crossed not in the same group many seconds behind? Is this because of the crash rule , or do you need to be in the crash to benefit? Thx
👍
Matt is back 👍👊🦋🏆🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋
4 contenders? This stage showed its a 2 horse race + Pogacar will do a Chris Froome if it comes to it and attack his own teammates for the Giro-Tour Double. He will rather lose yellow to Jonas than letting Ayuso win it.
Hi Chris, Thank you for providing thrill, tension and drama, in your show. You do justice to the epic life and death stories only a racer like you can provide. Leslie
Carapaz intrigues me. He could be a wild card for the podium.
Can’t wait to see Carapaz does in the high mountains. It wouldn’t be a big surprise to see him very good. 🤔🏔️ 🦋👊
I'm playing a fantasy cycling game called Tourmanager and I immediately put him on my team after yesterday's stage. It's a risk, but one I'm willing to take for a guy of his potential.
UAE team was a disgrace only Adam Yates did his job the rest hided in the peleton and did nothing Ayuzo is so overrated
YAE didn’t have the good position going into the climb but that’s not their strength. Luckily it is Pogi’s. They did help over the top of it though. 😜🦋💪
How about those speed wobbles on that Bianchi as Vauquelin crossed the line. He had a hard time taking his hands off the bars!
Whenever is Roglic included it must be some drama. Guy was in the back of the peleton un climb where attack was easy predictable. No wonder that vlasov and hinley didnt want to drop blood to catch other gc after captain roglic made such a mistake
Roglic not with his teammates and in a bad position. Its like the dude doesnt like any team he is on no matter what the name on his chest says. He owned up he was in the wrong spot. When does he learn that he should be on his teammates wheel. Its the biggest thing holding him back from competing in my mind. If he did this, he could easily have saved crashes in the past and actually have a TDF victory in hand as well as be in position to win another. Jonas would just be another person to help him in Jumbo. I think Jonas's biggest attribute is riding smart. Roglic doesnt ride smart, he has natural abilities allowing him to stay relevant until he isnt because of crash/loss time/etc.
You are Chris Horner from F1 RedBull?
It's Red Bull Bora Hansgroe !!
Your commentary is so much better than peacocks ….Thank you
Pogi will go down in history as the *GOAT* of pro cycling!
I refuse to believe Jonas actually collapsed a lung, how do you collapse steel?
Great to see Victor put in an appearance, doing what he does best - lighting it up!
Excellent from jonas, pogi tried everything, but jonas easily followed
Tried everything? LOL. Pogi went hard for all of 6-10 seconds before the curves. He threw a soft jab to the gloves just to feel the resistance.
Owwww. Those skin burns and scrapes.
In the end, Pog didn’t want the yellow so soon. UAE will now be under pressure.
If he finished two places behind Remco tomorrow then he will lose yellow. If you can place a bet on Remco crossing the line before Pog on stage 3 then hammer that bet. Put your house on it! And please let me know if you find that bet lololol
Correct....Pog admitted this to Remco, as he hoped Remco would get the yellow because he slowed at the last....look at JB2
Sprinters will do all the work tomorrow. 💪🦋👊
@@J-cz7yvit's a sprint stage
@@ChrisHornerCycling yeah but UAE will end up doing all the work in the Alps on tuesday which is, i guess, what Pogi was trying to avoid
Jonas had his spidey sense working today! He was on Tadej’s wheel immediately. Then they both (as you noted) worked together!
Wheel sucking with jvS pulls mainly on downhill sections . Tp will need to let jv do the pulling on longer climbs like 4 et al
They hardly worked together. Jonas did the bare minimum to not look completely soft and come under fire from fans (has already happened before) or worse, piss Tadej off enough for him to comment post-race. Jonas’s legs were just fine to contribute to a meaningful rotation. He just never does. Maybe he’s smarter tactically over 3 weeks, but he’s boring and irritating to watch sometimes. Jonas is passive and sheepish (always looking over his shoulder; practically paranoid) and relies on team guidance vs. instinct and full-send commitment. He “pulled” today to “save face”. Tadej was clearly not happy with Jonas’s initial reluctance to pull at all.
🕷️🕸️👊🦋
Hey Chris, do you know the name of that lion mascot you have behind you? 😊
@TraderJHart fully agree - they could have taken more time on Roglic and Evanepoel. Jonas is much more deoendant on his team than Tadej... always been. Previous 2 Tours... only the team that made it possible for Jonas. Tadej virtually did it all alone the past 2 years...
I'm a little bummed there were no "knuckleheads"
only some spectators
Chick with the phone and rog riding 20th plus wheel on the final climb??? Some serious threat he's turned into this year considering both his Dom's where in position
Tbh i dont think that was an attack, otherwise he would have attacked much earlier. I think it was just a little test but i'm glad Jonas is in "top shape" so the race can be more exciting. Looking forward to Galibier ,then will see where Pog and Jonas stand. #teamPog
how do these riders catch back on after a mechanical? we can't in my group, and its nearly impossible to close a minute gap, forget longer....are these riders just "hitching a ride" from car windows?
They’re allowed to draft the cars until they get back to the peloton.
The caravan draft (not holding on to the car, too often;) allows the riders to get back to the peloton. If there was no caravan it would take a whole team or at least Wout to you back on. 👊🦋🤪
Shaping up to be an epic TDF! Always look forward to your breakdown. Tadej always gets more credit than Jonus.
Maybe because Tadej almost always attacks, while Jonas just reacts to it. Tadej is what ciclismo is about, Jonas not so much.
What about Ayuso and Almeida? I’m not impressed so far.
Almieda loves the diesel climbs. 🏔️🦋🤔👊
They both could have pogis head cold for all we know. Or they are saving themselves for stage 4
visma is not proposing the race as always
Thank you, Chris and Garret!
Nobody is talking WvA is again on the deck? Count the number ofnyimes he has been down in 2024...
Go ROGLA GO!
With no Sepp and wout taking damage already I just don’t see Jonas beating pogo this year.
Wout seems to be ok.
they don't lose much when it's such a deep team
Yes! The recap I need! Great TDF so far
Man Primoz needs Johan Brunyll. I know he is banned and all, but Primoz needs a tactically smart directuer sportif.
How can Primoz make up 15 seconds on Remco, Tadej and Jonas? He could do that against one or maybe two of them. Something unthinkable will have to happen for Roglic to beat all three. 🛋️🦋
Hey Cris, every time Jonas starts the Tour it’s the same, last year included. First couple of months of the year not a 100%, then getting better and better until tdf. This year: massive injury… off for weeks …. Just had like he said in an interview yesterday only 6(!!!!) weeks of training. Makes me thinking: in the hospital for some time etc etc etc getting medicine , blood, etc…. A whole lot easier to give him some good blood bags …. You know what I am talking about. Geeeezzzzz just juiced up like this?????!!!??? Come on Chris give me some of your wisdom on that. What the heck….. there is something not right !!!! That’s not a knucklehead assumption right here ❤
After stage 2 Pogacar realized that he lost this TDF24.
lol 😂 maybe
I just laughed when Tadej "attacked" only to grab a water bottle and sit up ... what a play! He's toying with JV..."let's see whatcha got!"
Watching on Mon ... (early bedtime), great vid. as always Chris!!
Sweet 🎉
🍰👊🦋
@Chris Horner, stage 4 do you agree this stage should've finished on the mountain with the cars waiting down the climb? It's now 16km descending before the finish, which seems to me to be extremely dangerous, with GC candidates taking extreme risks to descend?
pogs didnt want the yellow and tried to give up that 1 second in the last few metres :) Carapaz did no pulls for Remco at all in the bridge
