As the final and decisive link in the work carried out by the group Alpecin-Deceuninckthe Belgian cyclist even imposed himself with authority on the other finishers, this time Dylan Groenewegen (Jayco-AlUla), Phil Bauhaus (Bahrain wins), Bryan Coquard (Cofidis) and Mads Pederson (Lidl-Trek).

The average speed of the last kilometer of the stage, 65.6 km/h, illustrates the extent to which the sprinters are exposed to the risk of a dangerous fall at the moment of greatest tension, when all the runners, especially those finishers and their throwers, are looking for the best tire and the best hole to get the most out of your muscles in the last few meters.

Alpecin and Philipsen, for another day, were the strongest and the brightest who extended their record after their victories in the 3rd, 4th and 7th stages, with the finals in bayonne, Nogaro, Bordeaux. With his two victories in 2022, the Belgian now has six Tour wins and 33 in his career, a number unique in motorsports fashion as Fernando Alonso chase 33rd victory in F1 World Cup. This season he has 10 counting two in Tirreno-Adriatico.

After a favorable day to not waste energy on the part of the exam favorites, the general continues unchanged in Danish Jonas Vingegaard as leader, followed by Tadej Pogacar (at 17″), Jai Hindley (at 2’40”), carlos rodriguez (at 4’22”) and Bilbao hair (at 4’34”) in the top-5.

Beyond Philipsen’s excellent display on the streets of Moulins, the 11th stage was very void for the spectator, as the peloton limited itself to controlling the three escapees with the aim of passing the kilometers and ending the shootout there is little left. the goal is new.

Two 36-year-old veterans, Oss and Amador, and a young 22-year-old Frenchman, Louvel, immediately made the breakaway of the day, but barely managed to win by more than two minutes. Some rain appeared in the latter part, but it did not have a major impact on the progress of the stage.

The peloton first caught Louvel, then Amador and finally Oss, who was swallowed up with 13km to go after a 160 unrewarded adventure. The prize awaits the fastest sprinter of this Tour, Jasper Philipsen, who is capable of generating very high speeds despite the absence of Mathieu this time van der poela ‘locomotive’ preparing for what is to come.

The Belgian is right to catch the wheel of Dylan Groenewegenwho started the last battle and thus unwittingly guided Philipsen to victory.

Jasper also completely knocked down the work of those Jumbo-Visma to launch into wout van aert, which today doesn’t have that dreaded pedal stroke that often crushes its rivals. Jumbo has a great goal of Paris with Jonas Vingegaard, but he also seems not to give up on stage victories, even if it implies risks and waste of energy.
