The eleventh episode of Tour de France It made me very happy. The finish line was reached forty odd minutes ahead of schedule, a good example of how fast things can go on a day with the men in the general classification very involved.
There was an early escape with Movistar Oier Lazkano among the escapees, but the leader’s team had already worked. That movement of the UAE Emirates already anticipates the movement of Tadej Pogacarwho released his rivals thirty kilometers from the end.
however, jonas Vingegaard was able to paddle from behind, let go Primoz Roglic and reduce the distances to catch him, beat him and show that he can fight everyone in this Tour. I think the recovery he experienced makes him the favorite for victory, ever since Pogacar He has suffered a very hard mental blow, he will remain pensive and he will lose confidence. The Dane, meanwhile, proved fully recovered.
In addition, there are six mountain stages left, all of which have a high finish. The forces will take their toll and Pogacar suffered in that aspect. The lion is not as fierce as it seems, although his bravery is to be applauded. He tried a tactic similar to what he had shown in the past Italy is spinningbut the difference is that here in the Tour there are bigger rivals like Vingegaard, Roglic and Remco Evenepoel.
Therefore, perhaps the logical thing now is to reserve more and not attack from too far, especially when he faces the race with the transalpine round behind him. It will definitely help you take care in the next few days, which promise to be tough. There is little left for the high mountains at the weekend.
