Jumbo won with strength and team work. No question Seppie is worth his weight in gold. Worlds best climbing domestique and happy to do it. Team work. No coincidence that Sepp has been on every Jumbo Tour win in this era. He’s the happy warrior!
SOOOO much better than the GCN recap of this stage. I could not understand at all what happened in the race from their highlights. This video makes it so much clearer what was going on!
The camera directors at the Vuelta are horrible. They're missing all decisive moments and aren't even bothered to go back to those moments (Roglic attack, Kuss attack, Vingegaard joins Roglic).
We only started watching the racing at the Giro and I’ve found the footage inexplicable at times. Watching the highlights is even worse! They miss key moments in the race. We just put it on from the start, watch a good bit then ffwd through and pop in and out at various parts of the stage, then leave on for the last roughly 50km. If we miss anything important, we try and go back to find it. Even then, though, the filming is dreadful at times, and it’s been worst at the Vuelta. Day 2, the motorbike filming was all over the place, and the helicopter footage was blurry. Both were missing vital footage at key times. It’s hard to believe it’s a well-established sports channel!
Lantern Rouge you are the best! Saw two other channels' highlights of this stage and didn't get the story of how the race developed at all. Thanks for nailing it again!
@@tracklocrossyeg Nah, it's sparkling wine alright, if not necessarily from Champagne. Assuming Sepp got a ride in the team car and didn't have to bike down that mountain (also assuming the team busses were not at the summit, at least it looked like they weren't).
It helps that Jumbo has good riders but it's also clear that they are the best team at understanding how to ride grand tours currently. They always have seem to have people in the right places at the right time.
What if... Roglic and Vingegaard are actually literally toying around and Kuss is the main GC guy? Or... a full TJV GC podium is about to be made...? Crazy year for TJV.
I just love Kuss. Best climber in the peloton, super hard worker, always positive and might as well grab the red jersey in the next hard mountain stage.
Well you will have to forgive us Americans for being a bit giddy tonight. I'm sure many of us will temporarily take leave of our senses and start with the Kuss GC talk again. Let us just celebrate him for what he clearly is- the best mountain domestique of the modern era who has been instrumental in JV's success at the Grand Tours of the past few years.
LR, Your narration is simply world class. I don't pretend to know what your channel makes you, but you need to be on Network TV for broadcast of the Grand Tours. Fantastic...
Why is it that Sepp Kuss is popular in Spain? Is it because he lives in Andorra? or that he seems to have the warm heartedness of Catalunyian? I'm from the US and was delighted to be there for a few stages of the Volta Catalunya.
At a pre stage presentation the crowd cheered louder for Sepp than Vingegaard or Roglic. Then he did an interview in Spanish so maybe that’s part of why they love him
Won his first Vuelta stage giving high fives and smiling the last 1/2 km (a very endearing look), lives in Andorra, won a TDF stage in Andorra, won a stage in Catalonia, is always doing well and working hard for the winner in the Vuelta, speaks a bit of Spanish, married a Spaniard. And Spain has kind of adopted him for all this.
Nightmare stage for Remco: hellish breakaway gone, Quick-Step having to chase all day, non-stop skyrocketing tension. And yet he did not crack. I guess it's not over (even though it's going to be very tough for him of course)
He is still Infront of Jonas and Roglic in GC. ITT still coming up. And it was an long and very steep climb to the speeds/draft was way less of an factor than most climbs. Its an day he can live with.
So awesome to see Sepp finally get a chance to go for a stage win! He's been fantastic in all three grand tours this year. He's one of the most cheerful and hard working blokes in the peloton...a true American badass 🇺🇸
Surely one of the most popular wins this year - what a stage and what a win from Kuss. I could not contain my excitement at GC Kuss becoming a reality. And GC Soler up at the front, sprinting for bonus seconds and coming 3rd in GC? What a day.
Considering when he got dropped, I don't think this was a total disaster for Remco. Still not great but I thought he was going to over a minute. Long race so we'll see how it progresses but shaping up to be a good one
Ineos totally broke today ! I think Kuss did a little tactical mistake not following the move of the two directly - that cost him some energy to close the gap, even if this was still small. But he could have gained a bit more time without that I think ! Otherwise - Good day for Jumbo - and Evenepol had been controlling his losses in the way we know he can do well ! SO - very interesting it seems to get now for the GC fight - there are still favorites and some dark horses ( Ayuso especially )
The way to watch cycling is 1) Look up results online 2) Watch LR recap video to understand broad strokes of what happened and tactics employed 3) Watch NBC extended highlights to get the full experience.
@@geertaerts977 I'm conflicted about horner. I used to watch his channel for a lot of races but his "look at me...I'm awesome and can predict what teams should have done with the benefit of hindsight" got to me eventually and I gave up on him!
Cian Uijtdebroeks will surprise everyone this Vuelta. If he didn't fall this stage, I believe he would've ended up higher. If he keeps performing like this, I genuinely think he can end on the podium!!!
I could not explain better. Sprinting for 6 seconds against Groves while jumbo guys where resting on the peloton. Today the debts are beginning to be paid
Good luck dropping Kuss in the mountains, and if you do you probably still got Primoz and Jonas on your wheel, and if Kuss attacks again somewhere your faced with the same problem, good luck!!!!
Love to see Kuss get the win. It's going to be great to see how Remco navigates this Vuelta. He's got physical talent in spades. Now it's going to come down to strategy and patience to take on the Jumbo juggernaut.
Yeah I don’t see how Jumbo Vizma can be beaten in this Vuelta. At this point of the race Remco is still holding his own and all my respect to him, but Jumbo Vizma will just choose two or three mountain stages where they will attack and there is no way anyone will be able to follow. The fact that they basically have a triple threat on GC and two of them are arguably among the three best GC riders of the world is just frightening. Additionally this makes tactics possible for them which other teams couldn’t even dream of and they use them absolutely perfectly virtually every time.
Well, still a long way to go, a lot can happen, but TJV is for sure the team to beat with two of arguably the best GC riders in the world, and Kuss clocking in as well, then they can pull some deadly combos in the mountains, cause the other GC riders can not let neither Roglic, Vingegaard or Kuss go up the road, so they will have to close gaps all day, everyday, even though they know a counter attack is coming.
I can understand if jumbo told sepp to ease up to avoid team responsibility these next few days but am puzzled they didn’t tell him how close he was to red so it could be a deliberate decision to push for red or not. Obviously the biggest thing is to do what it takes for the team to win the Vuelta, and if they chose not to take the red, that would be a strategy (not one i would follow, but a strategy. But it appears it was not a deliberate choice. Red a) would have been huge for Sepp, and b) would further legitimized him as a threat to GC, making it even easier to play cards in stages this next week. It was clear he had no idea how close he was to taking red. Kuss also looked the strongest the other day when he did not press for the line. GC Kuss.for a 3-card deck of cards.
Great to see sepp get the win. Capable of winning a grand tour himself but spends his whole season giving to others. Great to see him get a stage win. Such a strong rider. Legend.
It appears to be a question of efficiency. Trying to win with small gains is going to fall off the cliff with the gauntlet stages 13, 14, 17, and 18. Whoever wins overall could win by 5 minutes or more. Carnage.
0:30 we see Jay Vine crashed out - didn't see the crash so not exactly sure but what we do see is his back tire completely off the wheel and white crap everywhere. Are we really sure tubeless is the way? - Sincerely, A guy who still rides tubes.
Sepp is gonna win GC along with Egan Bernal. They will finish the vuelta at the same time according to atomic clock precision and will both be awarded the Red Jersey.
They had a good Giro, let's not deny that. Rodriguez was 5th at the TdF which is not too bad, but ofcourse not what INEOS is striving for. They want Evenepoel for obvious reasons!
I don't think the sprint for bonus cost Remco anything as it was just a couple of seconds of an excessive fatigue. Yesterday I was looking at a stakeholder to make a potential wager though. I thought I could place my bet on Remco, but as I checked last climb's profile, I instantly started thinking about Roglic, Vingegaard or Ayuso as it seemed to be too steep for Remco.
It’s official. Sepp can definitely be able to captain his own team and challenge. This guy today was sensational even when the team call might not have been in his favour. He still managed. Bravo 👏🏻 !
Don’t think anyone is writing off last year’s Vuelta winner and the World TT Champion b/c he couldn’t respond to accelerations today and lost limited time. He is expected to take large chunks of time from just about everyone on the time trial as well. He’s clearly the main threat to Jumbo and likely remains the favorite.
I think for now he has more of an Ardenne classics profile. Every year he seems to struggle at high altitudes. He has almost unlimited talent though, so I'm not counting him out for the upcoming years. For now I still think he has a couple of facets he can improve on.
@@cskard8289 Considering Vingegaards epic time trial in the Tour, I would not be so certain remco can beat him easily at all, if even beat him altogether.
@@TerranigmaQuintetThe time trial on the Tour was significantly different to this upcoming one. Considering Remco can beat Ganna on flat TTS, I think he’s the favourite (if he’s in shape)
Game over for Ineos! Team needs a reconstruction! Thomas finally to old, Bernal lost over 12min! Impressive Tactic once again by Jumbo Visma Sweet victory for Kuss! Remco starting To crumble, bad legs he says! Over 2 weeks left! Mas 🙄 form isn't there. Doubtful it will come.
As for g, remember he said a week ago that after giro what he did is drink for 2 weeks. Roglic after giro took a few days off then trained for vuelta. Thomas lost vuelta b f it even started. Then, one day b f vuelta start, g says that ‘what I am looking forward to is the race’s end so I can have a few drinks’ No winning way is that way
Holy shit. Jumbo are going to sweep the GTs aren’t they? New Sky Train, and it’s very much thanks to Kuss. Only a matter of time till he gets to pull a Geraint and win one of the GTs.
Any idea what kind of problem Mas had when the head of the race was at about 6.5 km from the finish, just at the moment the camera went from the front group to the helicopter view of the peloton? He was near the front of the peloton, than nearly got to a stop, dropped out of the back and then had to catch up and work his way back to the front of the group.
Can we not let Sepp Kuss win now? Damn, he deserves it... didn't he have a couple rest days in the last grand tours he did this year? I mean, I'm sure G is going to come for him (well, I hope), but I wouldn't be upset that one of the best climbers all year won a race. He's been awesome the last couple seasons. Like WvA one day, want to see this guy go for GC. Hope he's doing it in secret with team of super domestiques. Hope he doesn't soft-pedal the remaining TTs.
Sadly Mas seems to have cracked in the last km, first he was the only one keeping up with Roglic and Vingegaard for a while but by the finish line he got overtaken by multiple rivals and nearly got caught by Remco. I hope Remco isn't sick / can recover until Tuesday. Before todays stage he said he didn't sleep well last night.
I understand it's a tough job to deliver top level tv coverage for an event like the Vuelta, but damn it sucks compared to the Tour.. Everything is just 10-20 % worse, perhaps they could ask for some help!?
I am so happy for Sepp. He has been my favourite rider for years now and starting to get the personal success he deserves. Without Sepp, Roglic doesn't win the Vueltas in at least 2 of the 3 years from 2019 to 2021.
I guess it is a trade off because you could be the third highest paid rider in the world and a team leader or the best paid domestic in cycling 😊it all depends on your motivation and drive so Sepp is not Greg Lemond and that is ok but it would be nice to see him try 😊
Today's Sepp Kuss award goes to Sepp Kuss (USA). El Buitre del Durango is the number 1 ranked Super Domestiue of all time
💪🏼 Colorado
Sepp has been the workhorse of Jumbo's GT teams this year. Great to see him get a GT win
Just waiting until Jonas and Primoz decide that they want Kuss to win GC for the lolz
I think a lot of people are happy to see him win.
@@fajwolbert i wld love to see that too...1 supp 2 vinni 3 roglic
Jumbo won with strength and team work. No question Seppie is worth his weight in gold. Worlds best climbing domestique and happy to do it. Team work. No coincidence that Sepp has been on every Jumbo Tour win in this era. He’s the happy warrior!
Whatever they pay him, it’s not enough. I’m rooting for a Jumbo GT sweep
Jan Tratnik made the difference. He's a beast!
SOOOO much better than the GCN recap of this stage. I could not understand at all what happened in the race from their highlights. This video makes it so much clearer what was going on!
Ewwww.. you still watch GCN?!?!🤨 😂
😉
you should go watch Chris Horner's channel. he always give the best post game analysis, even with just pics.
watched it live and couldn´t understand it either. Not one imprtant attack was broadcasted.
I also couldn’t wait for this video so watched GCN. Boy was that a bad highlight reel…
LR luckily never disappoints!
Same here.Watching GCN was like listen to a medium talking to dead people. You just don‘t understand shit.
The camera directors at the Vuelta are horrible. They're missing all decisive moments and aren't even bothered to go back to those moments (Roglic attack, Kuss attack, Vingegaard joins Roglic).
Definitely agree 👍
They're shit. The cameras themselves are also sub-par. Get some directors who can make faster decisions and cameras with stabilizers, Vuelta!
We only started watching the racing at the Giro and I’ve found the footage inexplicable at times. Watching the highlights is even worse! They miss key moments in the race. We just put it on from the start, watch a good bit then ffwd through and pop in and out at various parts of the stage, then leave on for the last roughly 50km.

The course director is also terrible this year. Inexplicable course selection close to the end of earlier stages directly contributed to crashes.
They have siesta ...😴
Sepptember has officially started!
Lantern Rouge you are the best! Saw two other channels' highlights of this stage and didn't get the story of how the race developed at all. Thanks for nailing it again!
At 100lbs and high altitude, that long pull on the bubbly has definitely got ole Seppy shittered drunk 😂
He's from Colorado. This altitude is nothing to him.
@@charliedillon1400 And he went to CU, so neither is the alcohol.

It helps that they don’t really have to make compromises. All of their riders are strong in their own roles and are able to help gc in different ways
Yes. They will maybe beat Discovery team too and SKY in the past, right?
That moment LR uploads an 8 min video and you just know that stage was good 🤩
What if... Roglic and Vingegaard are actually literally toying around and Kuss is the main GC guy?
Or... a full TJV GC podium is about to be made...?
Crazy year for TJV.
A jumbo podium is absolutely possible. Let's not forget Gc kuss would have top 7 TdF at least if he didn't crash out.
Sharing the GC wins this year would be the ultimate teamwork. Roglic got his, Jonas for his, let's get one for Sepp.
Sepp needs to gain more time than on some guys cause at the TT he will probably lose a lot of time
tbh they're both almost 3 minutes behind, unless they can pull a bunny out of a hat (or Kuss weakens over the coming weeks) I could see it lol
@@oxey_ Problem is really the TT. At least half of that advantage gone in a day. Same goes I'd say for Lenny and Soler

I was very impressed with Michael Storers pace, ripped that group apart pretty effectively. And he looked so fresh doing it.
Nicely edited with the inclusion of the photography. Remco had a lot of trouble putting his Jersey on right arm after end of stage....
"They worked Evenepoel over, they worked Ayuso over, and Mas... kind of worked himself over" muahahaha

We shouldn't write Remco off though. I think he will come back from this even stronger. And I say that as a Roglic fan
Don’t think anyone is writing off last year’s Vuelta winner and the World TT Champion b/c he couldn’t respond to accelerations today and lost limited time. He is expected to take large chunks of time from just about everyone on the time trial as well. He’s clearly the main threat to Jumbo and likely remains the favorite.

Was Vine running hookless rims? Both tires were off.
Remco was smart, if he tried to go with Rogla and Jonas he would be in shit, just like Mas. He worked very well in Managing the loss
Sepp won the Vuelta here. Two straight Vueltas the winner stamped the Vuelta as theirs on stage 6.
As for g, remember he said a week ago that after giro what he did is drink for 2 weeks. Roglic after giro took a few days off then trained for vuelta. Thomas lost vuelta b f it even started.
Then, one day b f vuelta start, g says that ‘what I am looking forward to is the race’s end so I can have a few drinks’
No winning way is that way
Roglic double is on! Was worried about him after stage 3 but my man was cooking today, looked a lot stronger than Jonas towards the end
It's good to see Roglic in good form, but also important to remember that Jonas has been sick the last two days.

Like WvA one day, want to see this guy go for GC. Hope he's doing it in secret with team of super domestiques. Hope he doesn't soft-pedal the remaining TTs.
Sadly Mas seems to have cracked in the last km, first he was the only one keeping up with Roglic and Vingegaard for a while but by the finish line he got overtaken by multiple rivals and nearly got caught by Remco.
I hope Remco isn't sick / can recover until Tuesday. Before todays stage he said he didn't sleep well last night.
Sep could keep up with GC? For me he can, in TT is not slow and if Vingo and Primoz looking on his back then he can try it
Glad to hear from Remco today that he was ill yesterday, hence the 30sec loss. GLTA!
Primož Roglič is the absolute goat
Without any Tour de France wins ? I guess not 🤷♂️
What happend to Vine? Both tyres off rim, strange. Great recap ls alway, thank you!
Ayuso, 20 years young, very strong again
Une grande cava pour la jumbo?!😂 jesus man Seppie drank half the bottle
2:53 Who's Pippo Ganna. Do they call him that?
This Vuelta could be total JV domination
Look at Jay Vines tyres - you can see the rear blown off the rim, the front doesn’t look good either. Hookless rims ?
hope sepp kuss can win vuelta a espana this year, its time for him to shine
Can we get some GC Sepp or Eagle of Durango LRCP merch?!
The livestream, the podcast and the video. Sleep well LR!👏👏👏
How did they let 4 jumbo guys get away in first place
I understand it's a tough job to deliver top level tv coverage for an event like the Vuelta, but damn it sucks compared to the Tour.. Everything is just 10-20 % worse, perhaps they could ask for some help!?
What exactly do you not like?
i agree , they miss out on primoz attack , they miss out on jonas attack and they miss out sepp attack to be in the lead.
UAE living dangerously without tire inserts
I love how Jumbo let Pogi and Remco spend their energy on bonus seconds then just cooks them when it actually matters.
pogi isnt riding vuelta
@@eliasolsen2436 You don't think I know. I'm talking about overall racing. Pogi was battling for the bonies in TdF.
@@stephenb_dev sorry man
are u making fun of my boy orn are u making fun of my BOY@@stephenb_dev
wink wink
Cage fight. Awesome.
My favorite master soloist, Remco Evenepoel 😄
I am so happy for Sepp. He has been my favourite rider for years now and starting to get the personal success he deserves. Without Sepp, Roglic doesn't win the Vueltas in at least 2 of the 3 years from 2019 to 2021.
렘코, 뭐 30분짜리 업힐에서 자기 폼이 아주 좋다더니..아유소 한테도 이렇게 발리면...ㅎㅎㅎ 다음 산악 스테이지가 더욱 기대되네요.
Almeida doing Almeida things is the best comment ever made 😂😂😂😂
Sepp is the man😊does any team want him as their leader?
He should stay. He gets to be a fan favorite without pressure, and I bet he's making good money.
I guess it is a trade off because you could be the third highest paid rider in the world and a team leader or the best paid domestic in cycling 😊it all depends on your motivation and drive so Sepp is not Greg Lemond and that is ok but it would be nice to see him try 😊
Remco slowly cooked tastes the best! :)
Nowhere near cooked. For a stage that didn’t fit him, I’d say he did pretty good actually
Jumbo 123 on GC?
Ayuso and Martinez could fight for that. Remco out of top five or Covid again
I hope kuss's pay cheque ie a big one this year
