EF Education-EasyPost went on the attack in the final kilometers of Stage 12 of the Tour de France to try to shake off the sprinters’ teams.
Max Walker, Michael Valgren, Georg Steinhauser, and Kasper Asgreen each went for it over the short, steep hills towards the end of the stage, but couldn’t get away from the sprinters who were determined to duke it out in what was likely to be the last bunch sprint of this year’s Tour. When our guys tried to get away early, on the rolling roads out of the Circuit Nevers Magny-Cours, the peloton wouldnโ€™t let them get an advantage. The breakaway that did get away was kept in check with just over a minute’s lead for most of the day. Our best option was to try to break the peloton over the final climbs. We gave it a good go, but couldn’t make a move stick.Tomorrow’s stage, from Dole to Belfort, is much better suited to breaks. Watch for EF Education-EasyPost to light up the front of the race.

  1. The more you show of Valgren, the more I like him ๐Ÿ™‚ he seems like an interesting, uncomplicated, funny guy ๐Ÿ’–
    Thanks for the consistent quality, Race TV๐Ÿ’– you guys make the TDF better and more fun ๐Ÿฅฐ

  2. At the front end of the team car giveaway I was hoping for a set of wheels. Made it to the end of the video. Understand the wheels are off the table. I'll take the visor cleaner or Haribo. BTW, I have subscribed to EF's channel since pre-Lochy's 2019 GBDuro, and faithfully follow the EF Oatly gals, so I think I qualify for yesterday's apron. Or was that just for new subscribers? Geez…

  3. Hey wait! Does the 100th subscriber win the EF swag? What about us longtime subscribers? Maybe do a drawing including all the 100,000 subscribers ๐Ÿ˜ณ? I know that might be difficult. Either way, Iโ€™m a big fan and enjoy all the videos! Aloha from Kona, HI.๐Ÿค™๐Ÿฝ

  4. Shame on you !!! Could you please stop to wash cars with water ? France is facing high lack of water, and in most part of France, water usages are strictly restricted… and washing cars with it is forbidden for weeks ….

  5. These videos are fantastic! I've been watching these more than the actual tour. I would love to have a segment on EV charging the team cars! I know that is another logistical item among many that we are seeing that needs to be figured out.
