Unbelievable second half by Juan Ayuso. Lost only one second to McNulty in the second half on wet roads while McNulty was the second fastest in this secture with good weather conditions. Ayuso has some really good descending skills (especially on the TT-Bike). Won the TT's at Tour of Romandie and Tour of Suisse last year in the exact same style where he gained the deciding seconds on the descent in the second half. Hopefully he has it again tomorrow on the queen stage. Will be a fascinating stage to watch! Looking forward to it👊
Ayuso might win a GT before Remco gets another. 🦋🛋️
I was thinking the same thing and was perplexed how Ayuso could lose only one second with so much descends on wet roads to Brandon but we never got to watch Brandon’s TT so I thought maybe Brandon had to slow or possibly over shot a corner and lost some time somewhere in the second half of the race. I wish we got to see more of Brandon’s ride. 🤷🏼♂️🤔🦋💪
Agree with you Chris about the production of the race. I'm Swiss but I wasn't very happy about my compatriots. They didn't show anything of Ayuso's second half where he was really flying. I can also remember a scene where Alaphilippe was on the way to a U-Turn and I wanted to see how he does this U-Turn on the wet roads. We know Alaphilippe as a good descender so I was very interested how aggressive he would ride into this U-Turn. But then the scene was cutted and they showed Koen Bouwman coming into the finish with a one minute gap on McNulty and I was yelling on the chesterfield how they can show the finish entrance of Koen Bouwman with a one minute gap while Alaphilippe rode this corner (especially because they could have waited five seconds before switching to Koen Bouwman).
Exactly. Even during the prologue Julian’s pass thru the corners was only shown by Helicopter so we missed the viewing twice. Oh well nobody’s perfect. I wonder if McNulty had an issue somewhere in one of the corners during the second half of the race because it seems strange that Ayuso didn’t lose more time on the decent to the finish. 🤷🏼♂️🦋👍
Go Faster! Great performance Brandon McNulty!🎉
🔥🦋👊
I loved the "like and describe". Yes I do and Yes you do for sure!
I thought. Did I really say that. Yep I did. 😂🦋👊
The way Ayuso spoke during Tirreno was revealing. He essentially was benchmarking himself against the best climber (Vingegaard) in the world. He is looking at Pogacar/Vingegaard. Part of UAE’s historic tactical problems stem from Ayuso seeing himself better than Almeida, McNulty, Vine or Yates. He is starting to establish himself as the second best GC rider at UAE. Today could solidify that for him. He is the complete package the question for a GT is, can Ayuso raise his climbing level another notch? He could yet win the Tour de France this year…
surprised no mention of lenny martinez for tomorrow's stage, he's been climbing great
I thought Bernal would have performed better in the TT. Perhaps it had more to do with the weather than with his form? Thanks Chris and Garrett!
Weather certainly made it look a bit slower but I was hoping for Egan to be a bit better also. 🤔🦋👍
Nice ride McNulty... Go, Go, UAE..!!!! should be a barnburner tomorrow.....
Thanks for the video, Chris. Sounds like a good plan for UAE tomorrow. 🚴♂️👍
👊🦋
Ayuso was alreddy a great talent when he was 20 years old ! Indeed UAE have great riders in this small tour . This makes the victory of lennert in the UAE tour even bigger ! !
Yes. Yet another race that UAE should win. If they work together. We'll see.
Exactly. Can they do it, or are we going to see another Abruzzo race stage 3 and 4 from them. 🤪 👀👊🦋
Happy birthday to Megan
Hi John. Megans says thanks 👊🦋
1st
McNulty was rolling. Great to see him get the stage W. Hopefully, UAE will do well defending yellow with Ayuso. Tight in the top 5.
Very for the top five. 🔥🦋👊🏆🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋
Chris Horner: When the Time Trial Gets SKETCHY, pull out your crayons and pencils!
You right Chris! Everyone try to do the same as Jumbo Visma in 2022 Tour de France putting the "big guy" WVA in the attack and just waiting Jonas as the last climb. But none of this teams have the "big guy" WVA and Jonas. Simple like that! Let's see tomorrow.
Tomorrow should be a good one 🔥👊🦋
Sad thing....weather being such a big factor today....but that's cycling!!!!
Yep. Kind of killed the drama for today’s win but at least the racing is very close still because un like the prologue where everyone picked their start times today all the favorites started very close to each other so Ayuso still got the lead. 🦋👍
Thats bike racing... happens a lot... McNulty's been on the flip side of this, more than not.!!!! but when the stats are in... a WIN is a WIN.
Hi Chris. You are right about the best tactic. But that sounds boring. I hope for some solerism.
We all hope for chaos. And we all love Soler. But I’m a coach first. 😂🤪👊🦋🔥❤️😘
nice to see that none of the GC riders crashed in the rain
🎉
👊🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋
The two 'hilly' ITTs at the TdF are going to be amazing with Pog, Remco, Roglic, Ayuso ...and, hopefully, Vingegaard putting it all on the line. Not to mention that Stage 21, which is the final stage, can potentially decide the overall winner.
If a breakaway with no GC threats goes up the road, couldn’t UAE just let them go and let other teams do the work if these other teams want to go for the stage and time bonuses? If the breakaway makes it to the finish then that negates the risk of Ayuso having an off day and being beaten in the sprint.
Great show Chris, let’s Go Brandon!!!!
🦋👊
USA USA 🇺🇸
🇺🇸🥇🥈🔥🦋
bravo mc nulty !last chance for ayuso tomorrow ! ride fast die last! njoylife
👊🦋🔥
Missed the stage, how did Plapp fair?
Am I crazy for wanting the TT stages to be on indoor velodromes? It's maddening when the weather picks winners.
Weather effects everything. 🦋💨🌧️🥶
Maybe I missing something here…I’m surprised you’re counting out Adam. He looked amazing before his concussion in feb. He was dropping riders with ease in the UAE tour.
Adam who? Is he in top 10?
@@buzzman4860 buzz man, after a comment like this I am sure your comment doesn’t deserve a reply… but just to give you a little education so next time when you see me comment you avoid me like a fucking plague. Adam Yates is one of the greatest riders of our generation. Last year he was 3rd at Tour de France. Now do me a favor and delete your comment… cheers
@@buzzman4860 Adam, you know the guy that came 3rd behind Tade and Yonas at last year’s Tour De France. ;)
If you go back to the two mountain stages at Abruzzo I am not wrong in saying that Adam’s (and his UAE climbers Diego,Jan, Siv, at ) tactics were completely wrong at that race. I am very aware of his abilities and agree that he and his brother who is GT winner (Spain) are exceptional riders but the fact is at Abruzzo (which was not long ago) was a nightmare result and completely a clown show by the UAE team. Watch the summit finish stage 3 Plati di tivo and watch Diego just shaking his head in disbelief after Lutsenko won the stage. No way I want to trust the stage tomorrow to Adam alone in the break where anything could happen (flat, attacks,crashes) to him in the break when we know Ayuso is very good and will have Adam by his side and the whole UAE team to help solve problems together. 🤔🦋👍
@@ChrisHornerCycling Chris, this is my point of view on this matter, people like Adam have the talent and capabilities to be GC riders for many teams but not good enough to be GC riders that win TDF. I won’t go into details of what politics, luck, wrong coaches, or whatever else could have played out during their development that they never achieve the top. Let’s be honest here, Adam Yates has accepted the role to be Tadej’s domestic but he is not just any domestic he and Stepp Kuss are some of the greatest riders of their generation that could easily be GC riders for many smaller teams but they have chosen to ride for the main teams where all they can he is domestics for probably two of the greatest riders since your generation. In order for these guys to be happy and motivated every now and than you have to organize the team around them and let them enjoy their moment of being the captain’s they probably very much think they deserve to be. I am thinking bing picture, but I could be completely wrong. Thanks for taking the time and explaining, I will go and watch the stages your recommended more carefully. 🙏
Will ayuso be in the tour? If he didnt have to work for Pogadcar he would be a top 10
3rd
🥉👊🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋
Why no female coverage???? As much as I like the men's races, I love the female ones even better. They are so unpredictable and almost always have a surprising finale. This far, every race has been won by a different rider, which is so incredible.
You can listen to LR and The Move and you can get that info and coverage. Everyone is allowed to cover what they want to cover and what they feel comfortable covering. It’s not your choice how Chris uses his first amendment right.
He's covered a few women's races to be fair.
The day has only so many hours. I watch the ladies big races also but it takes a lot of hours to make each video so I’m out of time. The woman’s races are very exciting no doubt with so much chaos going on out there and it would leave me with tons to talk about especially the last three big classics where knuckleheads were around every corner. So much fun to watch we all can agree on. 🦋👊🔥
@ChrisHornerCycling if there's a candidate for knucklehead ride of the year, then Demi Vollering in Liege is a prime contender. Are we sure she's a seasoned professional after that sprint??
I think Primoz Roglic will win the stage.
😂🦋👊
I love these time trials. It is a bit of a shame that we will not see a lot of the big names later this year at the Olympics. On Europsport they explained how riders (nations) could qualify for Paris 2024... Apparently only the nations that did have a rider in the top ten of the TT World Championship from Glasgow 2023 are allowed to send two riders, and all other nations can just send one rider.
On top of that the riders who participate at the Olympic TT must also race the road race.... These rules are so dumb... Because a nation like Switzerland can send two riders to the Olympic TT, but in the meantime that same Switzerland is not allowed to send more than two riders to the Olympic road race....
I can understand that Switzerland would love to send a rider like Hirschi to the Olympic road race, but that would mean that they do have to leave a great TT rider at home..... Because if they send Küng and Bisseger to the TT, they can't let Hirschi start in the road race....
These rules are so dumb. Don't we all just want to see the best riders both in the TT and road race ?
Another example : Slovenia for example will now have to chose who they want to send to the Olympic TT, since they can only send one rider.... ☹
Too many riders would be there. The Olympic committee is about making money not necessarily about giving one a chance to race. They have the number they need for event to look fantastic and adding any more riders would just take more money from them. Just an educated guess but I bet I’m not far off. 😬🦋
