Congratulations to Jasper, the TDF does not belong on a race track.
Every team was launching their sprint while Alpecin was still doing their last lead out.. totally won by team effort.
Fitness doesn't matter if you don't have the skill to stay on the bike, lol!
Imo the type of green of the this year's jersey is pretty ugly, they should've continued with the brighter one 🤷🏽♂️
THAT GUY WENT TO ANOTHER UNIVERSE 1:50
Pretty 0:13 bad that for 4 hours, highlight is the tdf devil popping up in the middle of nowhere; otherwise, it was interesting to see tp mixing it up until the end. Hope the tour officials fined the lead out rider who drifted over in the last 100 meters after his pull and took out one of the better sprinters due to complete innatention.
It's very #SHIEK to sponsor professional bicycle racing teams 🙂 oily to bed, oily to rise.
And these guys are 'professionals' ?
GCN needs to remind people they don't show the Tour in Canada and the United States.
I would like to know how many watts MVDP made in the last push 😅
the team games are stupid, mvdp could have won both stages….
Is sagan even trying??
People forget how powerful trains are?
Why was Wout so far back today? He wasn't near the front much in the finale, and wasn't very competitive in the sprint.
Very poor Finishing venue. Out there in the open,on gravel roads. Poor decision by Organizers.!!
In my day as a race commisaire I was head for a race that was supposed to end up on a motor circuit. Now, this was 30 years ago and the circuit was not a pro one, but it was paved. However, I had a look at the surface and with a sprinkle of rain with the oil in the pavement, probably due to motor crashed looked to me to make it very slippery, so I cut out the track finish. Organizer was not happy, but bikes and oil slick pavement do not mix. Dunno is this is partly the cause, but I hope not.
Philipsen is racing dirty, it will catch up with him…
monster leadout by the MVDP, others are sprinting but aclpecin are still on a leadout, savage MVDP
Woods at 22”… 👏 ❤
People still wearing masks? Wtf is happening
Wow! Really glad Fabio is okay. Chapeau to Jasper.
So stupid to end a stage on a race track; its way more dangerous and there is always oil…
Watch the TdF highlights, so good this year
Yo helicopter camera man, don't try to get the crash, we want to see the sprint finish!!!
Is Jasper blind in his right eye? Middle of the road to the barrier in 150 meters . He is dangerous.
Did van Aert set up Ewan?
Jakobsen brake bike price of which is 17 kilo dollars
Credit where it’s due, commentary on the highlights much improved on yesterday
W hat a worthless, waste of time watching today's stage was!!!! This is professional cycling?!?!?!
Don't get me wrong, I am an avid cycling enthusiast and fan. But today's stage was immensely disappointing. "Ah, we don't really want to ride today. This Tour has just been too hard already…..we need a break." That was the imaginary quote floating through my mind on repeat while watching live this morning.
I've never felt like I wasted my time watching the penultimate race of the season before. Here's hoping things change. If not, I simply won't watch anymore of this "race" (dripping sarcasm intended).
I'll just complete my daily ride during the actual Tour stage, and maybe catch a highlight video.
Is Caleb Ewan throwing his bike too early? Always second.
Caleb is close without a MVDP, Cav as close as he'll ever get, hope Jacobsen ok and Sagan what a disappointing fizzle to his career 🙁
Look at MVP and Philipsen man so inspirational 🔥
Poor positioning by Cav on this one! I'm rooting so hard for him! Back-to-back close finishes on back-to-back sprint days. Just one more!!!
getting closer cav, to boxed in to join in with the sprint properly
MVDP could've pulled Jasper straight to the finish and get second lmao.
Crashing on a flat, wide open tarmac?
Unbelievable…
M 🦘🏏😎
C'mon!
6:37 Amazing Mathieu Van Der Poel
Van Der Poel is a straight beast. He doesn't get enough credit.
Sad that jacobse crashed, but good sprint from philipse
Mathieu pulls like a freight train man, no lies
I’m only watching to see cavendish win a stage
What a lead out by MVDP
The crashes during the final moments were extremely cringe-worthy to witness, casting a shadow of embarrassment over the sport. Reflecting on my own experience of going down a year ago, I'm beginning to question my past enjoyment of the sport. It's unclear if any effective measures can be taken, but finding a solution to prevent such crashes should be a top priority.
The amount of fuel bing used with the transport that follows, again, about time this changed, go electric and save the petrol and diesel.
Vingegaard pisser på alle 🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰
Why you still show this stupid devil man ? 😠🤮
They should be disqualified for not going around the roundabaout. Justice for that one guy!
