I think it was quite a strange TdF in that the stages that I really thought would deliver the drama were a bit of a damp squib but then other stages which didn’t really look much on paper delivered in spades. Absolutely ruthless by Vingegaard to take so much time on the first off day Pogacar has had in three years.
Comfortably the worst grand depart (from a racing point of view) I can think of.
