Bardet looked too old to enjoy the win. :sweat_smile:

I’m wondering though, with so many sprint stage opportunities has the tour design ruined some racing with Jakobson and Cav fucked on day one?

One of Cav’s strengths always used to be his ability to get through a stage like that and still sprint well the next day.

I don’t know whether he’s still got that now that he’s older :man_shrugging:

Personally I would have chosen to be off the back as far as possible to minimise the ā€˜damage’ of stage 1, while they clearly weren’t taking it easy I do wonder how much was taken out of the other sprinters that chose to keep up.

He’s done this every year for 16 years.
They’re just focussing on it now, as it’s a bigger story for 35 :+1:

Don’t worry dude. Fabio will be sweet, too.

Ooh bit of a crash, WVA down but back up and chasing. One of Ineos riders back up but looks like he’s been through a shredder.

Breakaway is a long way in the lead with 68km to go. 9’29ā€. Ten riders I think.

They’re practically sprinting up the Bologna TT course. Mental stuff

Roglic too :joy:

Mega day this. Pog and Vinegar absolutely smashing it up

But not enough to stop Remco dragging Carapaz back to them on the line :man_shrugging:

Another dramatic stage :slight_smile:

Glad that Vinge is up for it so far.

French cyclists must be over the moon with this start, maybe they should delay the revolution?
