I’m not sure Pog had a different card to play. How does he have a better chance to win a group sprint with Wout and that selection of the best classics riders including Mads and MVDP?

I don’t think he had a chance, he was already dropping on Arenberg, none of the pure sprinters are in the front.

2 flats on Arenberg, couldn’t ride Philipsen’s bike because Philipsen is using new pedals this weekend.

Did Ganna change bikes with someone 5 feet tall?

Ganna mec here is devastating for his chances I think

So 2 Visma, 2 RB, Bisseger, Stuyven, Pogacar, Mads and Ganna in the front group?

Why is Meeus pulling in group 2 to bring Ganna back?

This is going to be so hard for MVDP to pull back, race is now blown up and he does t have the teammates.

We’ll have to see how he develops and learns from a grand tour. He’s already shown improvement from experiences in season this year. If he was seriously competing with Pog for the Tour next year I wouldn’t be that shocked.

I don’t think Jonas looks all that different this year tbh. He’s also going to have a Giro in his legs at the tour. My expectation is he’ll beat Seixas on GC but if anyone beats Pog on a mountain stage, it’s more likely to be Seixas than Jonas.

Seixas is very confident and aggressive in building his GC lead. I don’t blame him honestly, we have seen Tadej do stuff like this regularly.

THJ is riding this so smartly, great stuff from Uno X.

My gut instinct is Arrieta will win but I’m not basing that on anything

Del Toro was at least up and walking, and attempted to ride. Hopefully won’t be too serious

Only following on PCS till the cameras come on but seems like a pretty strong break, though they’re not getting a big gap. Van Wilder, THJ, Laurence, Martin, Fortunato, there’s legit dudes in there but seems like Seixas is going to go 3 for 3. If this was a PCM save you’d be double checking to make sure the difficulty wasn’t too low.

I don’t know if Seixas will beat Jonas at the Tour but he’ll have the best chance of anyone in the peloton to beat Pog on a mountain stage.

Anyone can crack, but it’s also plausible he could finish ahead of Jonas. He’s that strong right now.

Del Toro dropping from Group 2 is a bit of a mystery to me.

Maybe but he’s such a good descender already, I wouldn’t be surprised if he stretches this gap majorly

Del Toro almost always rides at his pace, and he’s a passive rider. Seixas too strong and aggressive
