Route Details & Giant Breakaway Forms2:11 – 3:17

Phil GaimonHost

2:11

Okay, so 202 kilometers, longest stage of the race, and then towards the end, we've got the Col de la Croix.

Phil GaimonHost

2:15

I like saying that, Col de la Croix.

Phil GaimonHost

2:17

And then the Ballon d'Alsace.

Phil GaimonHost

2:18

Breakaway today was 60 dudes.

Phil GaimonHost

2:21

Okay, I'm gonna list all of them for you.

Phil GaimonHost

2:22

No, I'm just kidding.

Phil GaimonHost

2:23

I wouldn't do that.

Phil GaimonHost

2:24

I'll give you the highlights.

Phil GaimonHost

2:25

We had Tom Pidcock, Brandon McNulty, Ben Healy, Tejada, Bakeland, Ben O'Connor, Luke Plapp, George Bennett.

Phil GaimonHost

2:33

Yeah, breakaway of 60.

Phil GaimonHost

2:34

There's gonna be some good sprinters, some good climbers, some good breakaway guys.

Phil GaimonHost

2:37

The peloton let it go.

Phil GaimonHost

2:38

At 50K to go, it was seven and a half minutes.

Phil GaimonHost

2:40

Now, Tadej could close that, but he didn't.

Phil GaimonHost

2:41

He decided not to.

Phil GaimonHost

2:42

They had McNulty and Wellens in there, give them a chance to win the stage.

Phil GaimonHost

2:46

The highest in GC in the breakaway was Tom Pidcock.

Phil GaimonHost

2:48

He was way down on Tadej, of course.

Phil GaimonHost

2:50

So UAE really got to bluff.

Phil GaimonHost

2:52

Like, normally, they'd be expected to pull on the front of the race because they have the leader's jersey, but the idea of Tom Pidcock moving up eight minutes, the guy sitting seventh, eighth overall, now they're gonna sweat.

Phil GaimonHost

3:02

Like, Jonas, Remco, Florian, they're not super worried about Pidcock moving up.

Phil GaimonHost

3:06

They can take time on him again.

Phil GaimonHost

3:08

Suddenly, you see Bahrain on the front, pulling for Lenny Martinez.

Phil GaimonHost

3:11

Trek was doing some work for Ayuso.

Phil GaimonHost

3:12

They didn't want him to lose spots.
