Psychological warfare on Tour

Date:

I’m speechless and still dusting my face. The stage we are now in Tour It has been wonderful. It turned out to be such a great one classic pavébut instead of cobblestone with dirt, with the difference that we are not talking about a one-day classic, but about a race like the Tour, which lasts three weeks, which is now competing in its ninth stage and where all the cyclists went flat out, from the first to the last kilometer.

Property Pogacar, the leader of the Tour, has attacked four or five times; I think it’s because I lost count. The second classified, the Belgian Remco Evenepoel, had a spectacular attack, while Jonas Vingegaard It didn’t come off Pogacar’s rear tire. I want to control it and I don’t want it to lose even one meter; together Primoz Roglic behind, suffering sometimes more than expected.

And at the head of a group of eight fled with two Spaniards, Alex Aranburu and Javier Romo. They are both very good. I must say that Movistar team He ran so well today, it’s a shame that in the end Aranburu could only be 4th, with the success of French Turgis.

That in a Tour de France, in a stage of the Tour, and also on the gravel, there are four or five groups on a stage, with the escapees, that the favorites attack again and again, it has been very difficult on the stage and inspiring -wonderful

Now, I am convinced that there will be runners who liked this gravel stage, and I am sure that they complained to the organization in one way or another.

Of course, and I’ve been following the Tour for years, a leader, in this case pogacar, had attacked so many times at a stage like today, and one of his greatest rivals, Vingegaard, always follow the wheel. It may also be because of what Pogacar sees every day Vingegaard He will go further and he also knows that in the final week the Dane will go further, with very difficult stages ahead, and that he can blame the effort of the Giro d’Italia, which will blame him a little or a lot.

Thank goodness that after the first week this Monday there is a break for everyone, for the cyclists and also for me, what with my nerves now.
