I've heard that the naughty list is actually an acrostic that spells out JORGENSON

Jorgenson
O'Connor
Remco
Gee
Evenepoel (just really, don't let him go)
Nico Denz
Sepp Kuss
(skjelm)Ose
(jorge)Nson

For some reason there's a bit of a fight between Carapaz and Paret-Peintre for the polkadots, as if either of them will be wearing them on the podium in Paris

 

[Blazing Saddles]

Lots of punctures and mechanicals again.

Going to get complicated

Bernal closing group two solo like a rocket.

Just to give an idea how futile the polkadots hunt probably is, here's the top ten as of yesterday evening

Mads looking to be suffering a bit on this climb

Yebbut if they can sneak past Pog they'll likely be able to retain the jersey as Pog is unlikely to pick up any KoM points tomorrow.

I was under the impression Paret-Peintre was actually in it by right

 

[mididoctors]

Mads is really feeling it

Nibali 2014....

It would be ironic for Pog to finally have an unlucky Tour once Jonas was already out.


I hope they didn't catch anything off the late night doping testers.

I'm actually surprised there haven't been rumours that the reason the UAE riders are struggling is that they've had to drop off their 'plan' due to the testers cottoning on (likewise that Jonas crashed deliberately to avoid the testers). They probably have started on X and other forums I suspect.

They did, and then Carapaz and Paret-Peintre had a little joust for the points (PP took them), but Vacek came up with them. I'm not sure anyone will want to split this group up now, knowing Mads and Vacek will absolutely hunt them down, but the big group two is still chasing (EF not happy with only Carapaz in the group it seems)
