Good job I didn't put any money on him today, would be fucking raging.

Ah maaaan. He just climbed into the car.

Holy shit, that was incredible.

Dusty in here isn't it?

Ah, he's got Bonnet giving him an awkward on-bike cuddle now.

Christ. I understand how people feel when they watch Titanic now

Poor Pinot.

The hug.

Fucking hell. Poor guy.

Bardet dropped today, Pinot out. If Julian loses the yellow it will be a dreadful day for France.

I'm so glad that I am listening to Ned and David Millar right now, not Kirby trying to be sympathetic and trite.

I'm not watching live, what's happened to Pinot?

"Déchirure musculaire au vaste interne" according to l'Equipe.

Thomas pulling the peloton for a while now.

Bardet dropped today, Pinot out. If Julian loses the yellow it will be a dreadful day for France.

True. Polka dots look like they will leave Bardet. If Alaphillipe cracks too, it'll be riots in Paris.

"Let them eat gels"

Poor Pinot, the curse of stage 19 strikes again.

You can still hear him though, in your mind's eye? So you might as well have him perched there, on your shoulder, offering bland, overworked platitudes...

Short brutal stages are excellent.

Déchirure musculaire au vaste interne

Torn muscle

Journalists getting kicked and doored haha

You monster.

Yes, it's a monster of a stage, and what a stage we see these players on, playing their game of uphill chess, kings of the road, blah blah blah blah fucking blah. Aggggggghhh

He's like a one man game of Mallet's mallet.

They all rode past him when he dropped back to the team car

the real ming the merciless and flash gordon on now on film 4 for the itv4 ad breaks

Only the most unlikely possible French TdF winner remains

Photographers rather than journalists, and they are doing their job. I appreciate emotions are running high, but that reaction from the FDJ mechanic was unnecessary.

Movistar positioning themselves to fuck shit up today. Please. In the absence of Pinot, deliver something.
