That leadout from Laporte was really solid. He was definitely a five-star signing for Jumbo-Visma. It even looks like he's having fun in his role on their team! I think Wout waited a just moment too long to come off of Laporte's wheel. It looked like Laporte had already started to lose steam when Wout finally opened up the sprint and that may have cost Wout just that little bit of momentum.
WVA does classics, sprints, semi mountains, lead out... he cant do it all. You always loose against an Elitesprinter if he does it right and has a tiny leadout...
@@Petazzi1 but then again, this guy won a time trial the day before and was well present in the mountains too with Ventoux and Andorra. So nevermind my previous comment actually haha, this guy is unbelievable
I love to see how data-savvy Van Aert is, immediately stopping the activity on his Garmin as he crosses the finish line. Props to Jakobsen, that sprint was class.
EXCELLENT analysis of the leadout situation with Quickstep man trying to block Laporte/Jumbo. I wonder if there should be a discussion about banning this behaviour, it coulda led to a mass crash at high speed.
This banning mentality has to stop, if he caused a crash he would be relegated. But this is a bike race, and unlike F1 it won't be decided by bans and penaltys
@@cecio7453 Relegation of lead out man is actually no punishment at all. This is bike race and it shouldnt be decided by dirty riding but by good strategy and quality. I dislike banning aero positions...but in this case its only dangerous and dirty manoeuvre.
The parcours is not really the TDF's problem, its the bigger teams, the higher stakes and the more nervous riders. Plus Paris-Nice and the TDF are organised by the same organisation
Thank you LR, your vids have been progressing from really good to absolutely amazing in the last couple of years. Thank you for this regular, interesting, fun and professional content. This is better than any news channel can ever do.
Please make a video recapping Nairoman’s glorious win of 2022 Tour des Alpes-Maritimes et du Var. We need the final stage and some epic edits of the absolute legend taking the victory. Also I’m willing to sell all my worldly possessions and join a cult if Nairoman will be our fearless leader, perhaps start the ball rolling on that??
@@LanterneRougeCycling okay not bad. But perhaps next time more intense orchestral music mixed with the legendary Colombian commentator screaming Nairoman Nairoman in the background? Maybe even some tasteful fades to sepia with nairo’s eyes glowing red? Just something subtle like that to mark the occasion
I love that Quintana is good in the crosswinds now. It shows much of the skill with crosswinds is just being alert as he used to get caught out alot (TdF stage 2 in 2015 possibly lost him the tour as he lost 90 seconds on a flat stage!)
@@cesarbarroso7225 Yeah, that's probably a fair point. Perhaps I'm being unfair due to the occasions being in big situations. For example another was the year after Froome- Sagan breakaway stage (while loads of riders got caught out, he was hugely out of position so literally a sitting duck).
Jakobsen is Dutch, hew grew up cycling to school in crosswinds, like almost all Dutch people do. I think that mentality translates very well in to the whole Jumbo - Visma team, I'm quite sure they even look for those kind of traits in new riders
Don't think he made that up, I think it's a joke since the Vuelta 2020, when he was wearing the green jersey (and was joked when he wore a red jacket on top of a green jersey or sth when he owned both the jerseys)
Never been this early on a LR video :O If TJV can keep this level of riding up all week, they're going to dominate this race. Probably even gained GC time today maybe, if the other groups didn't catch up fully?
I still don't know how LR didn't rate Jakobsen higher in his sprinting tier list a couple of weeks ago. Yes Caleb Ewan is the best, but number two has to be Jakobsen for me. Racking up win after win, making it look effortless half the time
What is up with Wouts redbull helmet... love redbull and wout but not sure I am a fan. Hes a "special" rider for sure, but dont know if I love to see him broadcasting it on his dome
I do like Wout, but i dont like that he can seem to do anything and everything he wants. So when i comes to the sprints, i like seeing the 'pure' sprinters beat him.
Me reading "Jumbo-Visma Train Blows Race Apart" ... Thinks "why did LR repost the stage 1 review?" lol
Same i was like why do i get a notification from the video of yesterday
He had me too
WARNING!!! The title will be the same for this whole Paris- Nice.
+1. I was like why re-uploaded :(

@@peterers3 “Aux Champs-Elysées…🎶”
@@Petazzi1 yeah that was a solid elite sprint. But don't forget it was after 3 weeks of racing wherr everyone's legs has gotten tired
@@Petazzi1 but then again, this guy won a time trial the day before and was well present in the mountains too with Ventoux and Andorra. So nevermind my previous comment actually haha, this guy is unbelievable
@@peterers3 I agree with you that Jakobsen is more of a pure sprinter than Wout, but Wout has beat the pure sprinters on several occassions.
another brilliant recap, LR is the GOAT cycling commentator!
Jakobsen showing he is the best sprinter around....what a display of power in those last 150 meters!!!
Yup that was insane, super strong
Your confidence and unique humour develops with every stage you commentate, and the fans love it. Well done mate, outstanding work👌🏼
Why is "Froglic" so funny? Gets me every time I hear it
I love to see how data-savvy Van Aert is, immediately stopping the activity on his Garmin as he crosses the finish line. Props to Jakobsen, that sprint was class.
Froglič - top 10 jokes i have ever heard in my life

This Paris-Nice parcour is what TDF needs to follow for the first week before you get into the mountains. This is so enjoyable!

Nairo got PTSD from Zeeland and has been an echelon god ever since
So happy Mezgec clinched 4th, after Simon was stranded in the second bunch
This analysis is just so much more in depth and accurate than anything on gcn or anywhere else
Love the subtle ‘nek minute’. Very kiwi/Aussie reference.
Got me creased😂
That was a crack-up! (1:43)
great flow in this recap. thank you. nice piece.
Loved the commentary..great video. Thank you
I love that Quintana is good in the crosswinds now. It shows much of the skill with crosswinds is just being alert as he used to get caught out alot (TdF stage 2 in 2015 possibly lost him the tour as he lost 90 seconds on a flat stage!)
You said “a lot”, but I can’t remember more than 3 times in his 10 years at World Tour level where Quintana was caught out in the crosswinds.
@@cesarbarroso7225 Yeah, that's probably a fair point. Perhaps I'm being unfair due to the occasions being in big situations. For example another was the year after Froome- Sagan breakaway stage (while loads of riders got caught out, he was hugely out of position so literally a sitting duck).
"Dark Arts of Sprint Leadout" Fantastic commentary
Jakobsen is Dutch, hew grew up cycling to school in crosswinds, like almost all Dutch people do. I think that mentality translates very well in to the whole Jumbo - Visma team, I'm quite sure they even look for those kind of traits in new riders
Laporte was probably quicker than Van Aert but he really is proving to be quite a sign
Yop van aert was done. He was not sprinting from the saddle. Laporte sprint would be better
You just made up Froglic and I love it!
Don't think he made that up, I think it's a joke since the Vuelta 2020, when he was wearing the green jersey (and was joked when he wore a red jacket on top of a green jersey or sth when he owned both the jerseys)
@@janbregar2561 I guess I gave Lanterne too much credit. It'll be the last time I ever make that mistake lol
@@christopherdolan7330 Often what they say here, was already written by someone on Twitter haha
Forget the yellow jersey, Froglič for green at the tour
The battle will be legendary between Roglic and Quintana.
Happy you're keeping an eye on Biniam Ghirmay. Hope to see more Black riders in the pro peloton. Lots of potential
wva is unbelievable rider. best all rounder i have ever seen
Thank you from Truckee California
Jorgenson's group did make it back...just without Jorgenson, who crashed just before they made it back. I felt bad for him, he's on good form.
Hope he can take a stage or something to get something out of it
Nice personalized helmets on Jumbo
I love your love for Quintana!
Jacobson is looking so much better this year can’t wait to see how he does in TDF.
I died at Froglic 😂😂
Never been this early on a LR video :O
If TJV can keep this level of riding up all week, they're going to dominate this race. Probably even gained GC time today maybe, if the other groups didn't catch up fully?

Quickstep + Jumbo Crosswind Courtship?
Excellent finish! WOW fsdaf
What is he saying at 1:43 ? After et cetera
Nek Minute!
Can any one tell me why Wout Van Aert's kit is different from others in TJV?
Belgian national champion jersey. Not sure why the helmet is different though, probably a private sponsorship with red bull.
@@elconquistador1283 correct. He had that helmet during his cross season already.
Froglic!! 🤣🤣🤣 LR gold.
So where is Roglic? whats the leader board?
In third position. 28 seconds up on his rivals.
@@vinniamsterdam700 Thanks!
wait till..alps stage.. he will crush them all
@@PopCykolMotoPH tomorrow Time Trail, no need to wait for mountains.
I hope pog and rog are both in good form and their teams are as well for the tdf, seeing the best of TJV v UAE would be a great show this year imo
You mean TJV vs Pog?
@@Nahhnope nah I mean uae, their team is under rated because pog is so good imo
Frogla new goat
Day 2 of saying Jumbo is mastering the strats to mess up pogi in france
What is up with Wouts redbull helmet... love redbull and wout but not sure I am a fan. Hes a "special" rider for sure, but dont know if I love to see him broadcasting it on his dome
Pedersen had a mechanical..... he said after the race that his chain came off as he went over a bump in the last 500 m
I don't know why but TJV victories remind me of certain 90's teams
When Bessinger attacked, he prevented his GC leader from catching the front group....kinda dumb tactics
What's the jumbo title tomorrow?
WvA drops his TJV teammates to take the win.
Petition for the motorbikes to drive next to the riders and blow wind at them to
Make crosswinds
Pedersen dropped his chain and had to pedal/shift it back on, which is why he had to sit back down
Froglic!😎
What happen to molano?!?! uAE
Jakobsen "The Bullet"
5 pedal strokes and he can sit up and celebrate.
I do like Wout, but i dont like that he can seem to do anything and everything he wants. So when i comes to the sprints, i like seeing the 'pure' sprinters beat him.
Wva almost struggled to get out of the draft of laporte
The only person that can stop NAIROMAN from dominanting the tour crosswind stages is ................
GC God ...,...,....,...................
Greipel
Everyone at Jumbo is about to be drug tested 😂
Jakobson looks stronger than Cavendish.
first yet again
en fuego
Ils sont courageux et balaises 🚬
Roglic Froglic haha
🐸 lič 🤣
Froglic heh
Froglich!
Ah, too much trainer time causing poor riding skills....? I'm beklept.
