Has there ever been a more boring grand tour?
In any just world, Ineos tries a raid tomorrow to get seconds for Arensman against Gall.

Patrick what is up? Where are u? 😂
1 hour away from Benji and Benji has 3 mics.. lol
Patrick u are not Gerraint Thomas league..
Still 13 point difference. Catch him Benji!
Its Ganna.. of course.. Ineos 1-2.. my picks made it.. Ganna
Arensmen
Cavagna
CharGPT?? Where Gemini?
Pellizzari sick and was bad..
Beloki was 17th and Vingegaard should have been top 5 but was 13th I believe. Nuts! Not looking good for Visma..

why does he have to take pink today??? everyone knows Ganna takes the stage. Benji even called for Ganna's retirement if he doesn't! So why would Jonas put more energy in than necessary. He's now 27 seconds from pink. How many stages in the future does he take 27 seconds?
I really enjoy a nice traditional long flat ITT in a GT — as well as an old-fashioned OG version TTT — adds some variation into the mix.
Jonas did what needed to be done today and no more. I don't think they wanted pink at this point anyway.
22:56 – would teams not be doing what Armstrong did with his bike where he rode Litespeed painted as Trek, for skin suits? Make their usual skinsuit but have the organiser/ sponsor branding for said suit/jersey
Fresh haircuts for the boys?
Patrick didn’t go over to Benji’s house!!!! Wtf
Eulalio is the new Thomas Voeckler
