I just-
I can't understand the strategy on today's stage.
Like I fully understand if Bora didn't want to keep the maillot rojo this early, but letting it get to a 6 minute gap? and a 5 minute buffer?
They could've left it at a 30 sec lead... but to let Ben O'Connor, 4th place in the Giro d'Italia get 5 minutes in just the first week?
I just don't understand it. Can someone explain it to me please? Because it just doesn't seem like the smartest choice.
And as a die hard Sepp stan, I don't get why VLaB didn't do anything either. Same with UAE... like, tire out Primoz for the stages to come, no?
I'm just so confused.
Interviewer: Did you tell them you were confident? Did you think your back would allow this?
Primoz: No, but nobody asked me... I would've told them to go slower
🪽❤️WOUT🪽❤️ WITH WINGS!!!!!

2 FUCKING SECONDS BETWEEN THEM
and such devastation for demi... but such joy for kasha
the gap fluctuating between whether demi wins or not is so stressful but so crazy....
a grand tour coming down to literal seconds is insane

Remco Evenepoel ‹ La Vuelta 2023 - Stage 1 (TTT) ›
new things learned during the vuelta: antonio tiberi murdered his neighbors cat, who turned out to belong to the mayor of the tax haven he lived in and when he got kicked out he also lost his place on Lidl-trek which is why he now races for Bahrain victorious.
Sepp and Primoz🥰

side note that if you're upset because a woman has higher levels of testosterone than others, maybe a random ass societally constructed idea with no basis on anything measurable isn't the way to divide sports into categories
DINOSAUR QUICKSTEP???
Racing for them is every 4 year old dream 🦖🦖
i can and will continue to somewhat quote luke rowe on this one: the challenge for roglic in the tdf is the stay on his bike
hey primoz so how does it feel to always be so close?

THE WOMEN IN THE TDFF JUST RACED 2 STAGES IN ONE DAY😱😱
absolute fucking badasses🔥🔥🔥
shoutout to VLAB for figuring out that the jerseys for the mens tdf were awful and no one could find them in the peloton and FIXING IT because these new jerseys are 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Just some Sepp pics for the world to revel in in light of the fact that there are only 8 days until the Vuelta 2024!!!!
UAE has open spots on their Vuelta list???
They didn't have these open spots 1 month ago....
And Tadej doesn't have any races scheduled until after the Vuelta....
the addition of simon yates to VLAB makes the 2025 tour even wilder between them and UAE
Like, before we had crazy matchups with
Jonas 💛vs Tadej🤍
Sepp 💛vs Marc Soler🤍
Matteo💛 vs Juan🤍
Wilco Kelderman 💛vs Nils Politt🤍
BUT NOW
we get Yates💛 vs Yates🤍 too?!?!?!!!
I have discovered the most wonderful song that has ever graced the ears of the world

comm: "cleopatra may be queen of the nile, but ledecky is queen of the mile"
FRED FUCKING RICHARDS
the us commentators on mens gymnastics team finals are giving me life

The comm just reminding us that Tom Pidcock is only 24 🤯
