Tour de France - Stage 7
i1322.photobucket.com/albums/u569/IanButlerPCM2/Andolini/tdf501_zps18hdu45a.jpg

Pre-race
Seventh day into this Tour. In a few days we hit the mountain slopes, this is a final warning beforehand.
The management knows the mountains will see my GC standing crumble, and so he told me this morning to give it an extra effort. After all, the GC men might not react as they would to a direct rival to the GC for Paris.

The Race
I got over the biggest bump of the day quite comfortably. Then I knew my legs were good and I could follow the team manager's suggestion. I had to find the place where to strike best.

On top of the final hill, which wasn't a major climb, I accelerated, but not too brusquely. I got a gap.

There was no immediate reaction and my gap continued to grow.

I threw myself downhill and caught up with some leftover from the breakaway of the day. Unfortunately two remained outside my reach, but I finished my very first podium place in the Tour and stayed ahead of the peloton! What a final 8 km, at top speed.

Awaiting the official result I was so nervous. I was ushered away for doping controle, I almost told them not to because I was still waiting for the verdict. Yellow was a dream again!

Was I disappointed? Yes, certainly. I missed out on a stage win, but that was never really an option with those class riders still ahead. Yet to come within that Yellow Jersey so closely again. This time I made up more than a minute and then to lose out on it by a mere 13 seconds.
Especially knowing we hit the real mountains tomorrow. This was probably my last chance. I have fought hard and almost succeeded in the impossible.

I hope I can still have an impact on the race from now on. My legs are great and I can't imagine to sit back all the way to Paris now.

Ciao
Antonio

That's one impressive race by Antonio. Shame to miss out on yellow by such a small margin, looks like you'll end up with less than you deserve Sad

Super-strong first week and so close to yellow, but keep quiet in the mountains and I'm picking Ando for a transition stage win and some other antics Grin

Selwink - Yeah, very unfortunate to come close twice. If the Tour was over like this, I'd be disappointed. But there's still 2 weeks for Antonio to grab something worth remembering!

sutty68 - Yeah. Mountains will take care of that, though Smile

Nepo - Thanks! He seems in top shape for the mountains. But what can he do, that's the question.

Tamijo - Quite!

rogvi97 - Thanks a lot Smile

jandal7 - that might be a nice point of focus for the remaining stages. There's also the time trial on the penultimate day of about 50 km, which should suit him if he survives Smile

Nice to see you back again Ian! And Antonio is doing really well! Already a monument win and performing on a great level everywhere!
He couldn't take yellow here but don't discount the possibility of Andolini flying past motorbikes on Aspin ala Ricco 2008. :lol:

(He obviously won't fly up Aspin since he is a classics rider, not a GC one.)
Andolini should look forward to stage 11 and 14. I can see him winning stage 11 from the breakaway assuming this should be the profile:

Thanks very much, Schleck Fan! Antonio's consistency is a great thing which makes him a dangerous rider just about anywhere. That stage might just be bookmarked, but then he needs to get in the breakaway and that's not always easy!

Tour de France - Stage 9
i1322.photobucket.com/albums/u569/IanButlerPCM2/Andolini/tdf601_zpssonbgmjs.jpg

Pre-race
Well, the mountains have arrived. The moment everyone's been waiting for. Not me, though. Still, Peyresourde and Aspin. If they refrain from actual war, I might just survive. Not the steepest or toughest climbs and I could get over them on power and endurance alone.
I feel I'm still in the form of my life so let's give it all.

The Race
Bono was part of the breakaway and took the intermediate sprint (again). Racing is important but earning money is nice, too.

i1322.photobucket.com/albums/u569/IanButlerPCM2/Andolini/tdf602_zpskhe8r9ug.jpg

And suddenly we were smack down in the middle of it. Mountains. High and mighty mountains.

i1322.photobucket.com/albums/u569/IanButlerPCM2/Andolini/tdf603_zpsfjpmfcyc.jpg

Fassoli was a major help today. I couldn't have done as well without him! I was safely over the Peyresourde.

i1322.photobucket.com/albums/u569/IanButlerPCM2/Andolini/tdf604_zpsf09ml9rl.jpg

Only on the Aspin, the attacks started. Mollema, my future team mate (although my contract is still not prolonged for next season...), was the first to attack!

i1322.photobucket.com/albums/u569/IanButlerPCM2/Andolini/tdf605_zpshmjog3st.jpg

I didn't know how to react. At first I tried to match the pace and I blew up in about one kilometer. I was dropping behind fast now.

i1322.photobucket.com/albums/u569/IanButlerPCM2/Andolini/tdf606_zpsddfiuokx.jpg

I almost gave up, but then Fassoli looked at me and told me he'd give his final big effort for me. He set a pace easy enough to follow and fast enough not to lose any more time. I had no choice now, after his loyal gesture. I had to give it all!

i1322.photobucket.com/albums/u569/IanButlerPCM2/Andolini/tdf607_zpsxxobnebf.jpg

Downhills rarely have any secrets for me. I past rider after rider, not shying away from risks, too.

i1322.photobucket.com/albums/u569/IanButlerPCM2/Andolini/tdf608_zpswvifwqvo.jpg

The final 16 km of the race were slightly downhill - flatish. My steam engine was now fully on and I continued to swallow small groups and leaving them behind.

i1322.photobucket.com/albums/u569/IanButlerPCM2/Andolini/tdf610_zpsrqcl0kof.jpg

Chernetckii took the win from the breakaway.

i1322.photobucket.com/albums/u569/IanButlerPCM2/Andolini/tdf611_zps2imo9yrw.jpg

Both by luck (attacks had simmered down after Aspin) and by sheer willpower, I was nonetheless surprised to suddenly see Alaphilippe and the group of favorites ahead of me. Could I still finish within the same time?

i1322.photobucket.com/albums/u569/IanButlerPCM2/Andolini/tdf612_zps6shufthb.jpg

I was generously given the same time. Meaning I still keep my White Jersey and I'm 4th in the GC!

Wow. I had to let the better climbers go on the Aspin, but thanks to Luca, who's becoming a dear friend during this Tour as my roommate, I limited the damage. Downhill and in the final flat section, I used my skills to return to the front and thus survive this mountain stage better than I possibly could've hoped for.

Tomorrow we climb Tourmalet and finish on the Hautecam. I have a feeling that tomorrow won't go as well as today...
But you never know.

Ciao
Antonio

Tour de France - Stage 10
i1322.photobucket.com/albums/u569/IanButlerPCM2/Andolini/tdf701_zps2irpdzpa.jpg

Pre-race
The final race before the rest day. Can I make it until then in White? It'll be tough, with a couple of big mountain ahead of us. Tourmalet and Hautecam.

The Race
Looming in the distance was the climb to the Tourmalet. It invokes some fear, if I'm being honest.

i1322.photobucket.com/albums/u569/IanButlerPCM2/Andolini/tdf702_zpsfsdkf8k5.jpg

On a sunny day like this, it's nice to able to see the top of the mountain. A peloton of about 50 riders reached the top together, I was still hanging on!

i1322.photobucket.com/albums/u569/IanButlerPCM2/Andolini/tdf703_zpsfjzemeg4.jpg

On to the Hautecam. Pinot wants to win this Tour and others will need to attack him to get him out of that jersey!

i1322.photobucket.com/albums/u569/IanButlerPCM2/Andolini/tdf704_zpsttajlc4d.jpg

And someone will. Quintana attacked out of the peloton. Immediately the pace increased about 3 kph. More than enough for me, I was out!

i1322.photobucket.com/albums/u569/IanButlerPCM2/Andolini/tdf705_zpsxng9imzl.jpg

Quintana didn't end up winning the stage, though. That honor was reserved for Froome, who's now looking like a big favorite for the overall victory again. A strong comeback by the Brit.

By the time he had crossed the finish line, I still had more than a kilometer to go. The Hautecam was my road of suffering. I can't say when I've ever suffered more, honestly. The heat, the steep and long road ahead. I wanted it to end, but it lasted forever.

i1322.photobucket.com/albums/u569/IanButlerPCM2/Andolini/tdf707_zpsjipia3qm.jpg

When I finally crossed the finish line, I had already accepted my great first week was over. I had lost over 7 minutes on a mere 10 kilometers.

i1322.photobucket.com/albums/u569/IanButlerPCM2/Andolini/tdf708_zpshczxghom.jpg

I hung on as long as I could, I've been in the top 10 for almost the entire time this first week and I'm very proud of that. But Hautecam was a bridge too far.

Well, it looks like I can say goodbye to the U25 classification. Maybe not 100%, but it'll be very tough to fight for it. Instead, I will now take full use of the rest day to let everything sink in and see what else I can do in the Tour.
As far as I'm concerned, I have shown my talent in these 10 stages. But there's that hunger for something concrete. A jersey, a victory, something.

Ciao
Antonio

Well, that was coming unfortunately. Still 15th in the GC, but losing some time and fight for a stage might be wiser than hanging on for an honorless GC classification Smile

Could not last forever, two very hard days in the high mountains was as expected too much for our young talent, but Andolini showed that he is someone you can’t rule out as long as it is not the most extreme climbs.

Selwink - There aren't a lot of stages left for his abilities but one is enough in theory Wink

Tamijo - Indeed. It's been a great ride so far. Not a lot of people would've expected him to be in 15th spot by the first rest day so that's good!

Pre-race
Not an easy day after the rest day. It's a big climb in the middle of the profile. I'll see how I get through today because I didn't have a good rest day, had some stomach problems, if I'm being honest.

The Race
After the first rest day, I'm finally back in my National Jersey kit. Even though I've worn a great shirt of best young rider, it feels good to be back in this Italian Champion jersey.

The first 50 km were easy going and I was thankful for that. Grancitelli worked hard to get in the break but failed.
When we went uphill, I felt I still wasn't completely recovered from those stomach problems. I had to take it easy.

The high pace up front forced the peloton to split into about a dozen groups. I was in no mood to try to hang on. I was in the gruppetto.

One of our guys took turns relaying, but at the top we were already 15 minutes behind. The battle had been fought.

For the victory, it was an exciting sprint. Daan Olivier takes his first professional victory and talk about picking a place to win your first! (I know what I'm talking about)

I finished 20 minutes later. I drop almost 20 places in the GC, but that was to be expected.

The next two stages were flat stages, but both were won by breakaways. A group of seven contested for the win in stage 12 and two French riders sprinted for victory on stage 13. On stage 12 I still had some stomach issues, but stage 13 had me problem-free.
I hope I can start tomorrow's 14th stage without any problems and get back in action!

Ciao
Antonio

Not much hope for Cattelan Italia in those high mountains.

NB: brilliant result from the young Dutchman, also taking the white in front of Alaphilippe.

I expect it won't be long before Andolini celebrates his first TdF stage, at this point breakaways should survive stages of medium difficulty and if he makes it into the escape group he'll likely be the favourite.

Wise choice to take it easy there indeed. Plenty of space for a breakaway now.

Don't mind that from Ando, once we're out of the Pyrenees it's stage hunting time <3
