Tour de France 2026 ***Spoilers***

[mididoctors]

Superb and unexpected ride by Remco. He’d have been a threat to Jonas on that form. Felt like Pog could have beaten him but was all in for Del Toro. Kudos to Seixas too, definitely looks the real deal and very composed for such a young rider.

Ride of the day by Simmons but with a bit more sense could have possibly won that.

Showboating earlier was idiotic

Shame about Jonas but otherwise a very good stage.

 

[mididoctors]

I think he could have even come past then.

Yeah I think.so.too

My Man™* takes the win! Get in!

Remco is coming good in the third though

Bizarre almost

He’s not Danish though

 

[Pross]

Probably wasn’t the stage to try to gift to Del Toro as he was a bit sore after the crash.

Pog embarassed at winning so much?

Remco is part of the Big Balls Club, or whatever the Pog clique calls itself, and also no actual threat

I think he could have even come past then.

I think if he really wanted to (e.g. Jonas was there) he'd have made a bigger effort, but I don't think Remco is a pushover in a sprint

If he really wanted the stage he'd have gone between 3km and 500m out and nobody would have seen him again

Followed Remco seated all the way.

What the Danes saying about Jonas

He's a Gooner though.

Also, My Men™ doesn't exclusively include Vikings. Tao's in there, for one, and Wout, and Ganna.
Do I need to name a 9 man squad or something?

That would be helpful. Can we have a sweep stake on how many UAE riders it will include? (I’m having zero, the rest can fight for the other numbers)

What the Danes saying about Jonas

That he was assassinated by a French drug tester working for Seixas. They're not sure how deep the conspiracy goes, some people think there was more than one kerbstone on the ...err.... grassy roundabout. Others that a French mechanic replaced Jonas's right crank with one 2.5,mm longer.



Nah, just gutted, think it was a collarbone - like everyone else, showed him coming out of the x-ray van in a sling, but didn't try and jump him into an interview or anything stupid like that.

 

[rich p]

Pidcock yo-yoing the top 10 like Guillaume Martin but he's 10 minutes clear of Jegat in 10th. If that's an aim then he's reasonably secure in 9th.
He'd love a stage win but riding like today that's hard to see but kudos for animating the last 3 days. I think.
