Almost 4 mins lost by Roglic :eek:

Awful amount of lads crying when they win these days. Think they need to meditate on Rule #5

Roglic for the Vuelta 3 in a row I guess.

Classic Hatch there with Carapaz. 30 seconds on how incredible his performance was ‘Ecuador will be bouncing’ and the peloton catches him. Ha

Brilliant stage. No help for Rog or Pog makes it so interesting

Movistar helped Pog by chasing Carapaz!

Roglic still had the whereabouts to had his bidon to a young fan after he had crossed the line... class

Just seeing Jumbo had 2 in the peloton. Roglic obviously told them he was done and no need to help him…

Yeah spotted that pure class.

Has to be Roglic's inuries really. Feel sorry for him and I wouldn't have begrudged him winning the Tour after last year. Also possibly the only guy who can truly compete with Pog now out of it.

They must really hate him. Movistar usually only ride to chase down their own riders

Amazing athletes. What an effort and then they warm down while doing interviews.

Just looking at the results Kruijswijk was there with the Pog group at the end. What the hell????? They had to have written Rog off completely for him not to have dropped back.

Its crazy after races where they have to do that out in the open with fans all round annoying them asking questions.
Twice came across poor Connor Dunne having to get dressed in front of the crowd cause he couldn't fit in the camper van

Dodge

Majka was there with Pog. Missed that. Next UAE rider was Rui Costa 13 minutes behind them. Brandon McNulty another 5 back

Wonder are they saving him for week 3 as he should be a decent domestique

Can you imagine if Lefevre joined Movistar, what levels of begrudgery and pettiness they could achieve?

Movistar need to get over themselves and start acting like a team with a goal. Did you see Valverde and Mas blocking Kwiatkowski at the end. :mad:

No. Movistar have Enric Mas as a GC punt, who is/was close in time to Carapaz. What sort of team would they be to let a rival take time.out of their guy?

You might be able to argue that if it wasn’t Movistar who’ve a long history of pointless work

Did you see the build up where Kwiato was moaning like a b***h cause Ineos are not getting it all their own way.

Much like the Ineos fans

I'm not an Ineos fan by any means.

Riding up to another racer at the end of a race, blocking his passage and putting your hands on him is totally out of order. Even if you are Valverde.

That not what he done at all. Kwiato was shouting at Mas and Bala pulled him aside for a chat. No one blocked him that's pure lies

We are watching the same video and seeing different things. Not going to argue with you but it looked pretty aggressive to me.

Will be interesting to see how this plays out over the rest of the Tour.

Can yee point out where this happened? Km to go maybe? I didn't see it

McNulty? He crashed during the ITT a few days ago (and finished last) so I doubt that they are saving him, it's probably more of a case of him trying to do the best he can with his injuries.
