TDF: crashing on giant danish bridge is nerve wracking 
1 Like
So. Much. Crashing. And only one in a corner really. Yikes.

Seemed like pretty mild crashing to me? No major casualties right?
Wasn’t there a bunch of crashing last Tdf
Seems like they should’ve planned ahead
I mean, yes, usually lots of crashes coz nerves and the lot. But some of this on chill wide open roads/bridges when teams not really moving up or anything. Uran was looking like he might have been cooked as they started to stop the cars and he was over a minute out on the bridge.
Sprint was pretty impressive, though. Like he had to decide to stop bumping shoulders with Sagan long enough to actually go and win it.

Wow exciting no-crashy sprint today!
Sagan is actually pretty fast right now! Have to say I didn’t think he’d ever be so competitive again.

It’s the first couple of days
My bet is he goes hard and drops out midway
I feel like the dreamboat Sagan has sailed
Maybe he actually enjoyed his gravel riding photo ops and wants to be a factor again?
Either that or a Wout X Sagan green jersey battle goes all the way to Paris and is decided by who finishes fasted behind Caleb Ewan.

Assuming that Ewan figures out how to not get boxed in and relegated to fighting for 8th place.

It’s probably worthwhile for Sagan to keep going after points - he looks good enough to win green if push comes to shove for Jumbo and Wout needs to sacrifice for GC

Or he was like, “this is BS, I’d rather just win bike races so I don’t have to do PR stunts anymore.”

Gotta say the Jumbo green jersey game may be more dialed than the yellow. Laporte hoovering up some points was brilliant. Sagan is still looking solid and I’m still hoping for a hotly contested battle.

That team strategy + full commitment was chef’s kiss
Loved seeing Wout going all out, the chaos among the GC guys, and the other JV guys fucking up the rotation behind. Such a fun team win.

That was a great stage, setting up tomorrow to be a pretty great one too
