Thursday’s episode left a windy day at Tour de France, but also a comfortable day for the peloton. In it, the favorites think about the time trial and, despite the fact that it is fast, they have no problems.
The wind cut off the main group in the middle of the stage, but it was a few minutes since the peloton soon regrouped, as if everyone had agreed to go as a group. There were no attacks and the sprinter teams maintained control to play for victory themselves. I was surprised by this Mark Cavendishafter his win this Wednesday, has yet to make it into the day’s top five.
The Tour is now ready to experience Friday’s stage, a time trial that is a mystery because it is the first and because of how the favorites arrive. The logical thing is that Pogacarwhich favorite, is at the top, while the doubt is Vingegaard. I think he will lose time because the Slovenian is doing very well, although he saved the mountain day better than expected. The performance of Evenepoel, Ayuso and Carlos Rodríguezespecially in the role that Juan can play who is very close to his leader Pogacar in the general classification.
