Landa would have won GC if it wasn't for the crash fyi.

Yeah, but don't forget, that he wouldn't have been allowed, taking a 8 Minute advantage from a break, if he would've been in contention.

I want Pozzovivo to win somehow. I know it's impossible with the TT and the gap, but it would be amazing.

Indeed, good point. They probably don't care too much tho they have more important stuff to do and many people dislike those 2 riders anyways. Its the same people who thought they should have waited, full stop, when Dumo went for his nature break (rewatch the video, they waited more than anyone could have reasonably expected, IMO) and thought they were a bunch of cowards when they wouldn't help chase Pinot back. It perfectly fit that narrative about Nibali and Quintana being the bad guys and Dumoulin the saviour...
Lets see who will have the last laugh on Sunday, interesting it definitely is, all guys still with a good shot to win.

Traksel made it up completely. But the best part is when he made up the story that Rojas had been assigned the task to shadow Dumoulin and tell his teammates when he stopped to piss.

Kruijswijk has dropped out of the race due to stomach issues.

Seeing the new Traksel thing now only makes me more disappointed that ES used him in the third week as co-commentator, while Kroon and Boogerd are much more competent (and are capable of speaking better Dutch). At least for the Tour there's Sporza again or even the NOS

Explained why he suddenly lost much time again after looking better so far in the third week.
But this brings up the question: why do Dutchmen seem to have such weak stomachs in general?

Of course not. But he's the best climber in the race and his tt would have been way better too.

Are you sure with Stomach issues? Thought he'd suffer from his still broken rib again...

he has been great after crash recovery..still. Lot of if' s. They usually wont help much.
If that famous bad timing shit was avoided. This tour would be over already |

Pippo is in the break!

He would definitely have been up there, but these things are always hard to say. |
