Tour de France Stage 19: Castelnau-Magnoac – Cahors (188.3 km)

Last chance for a breakaway win, but given the last of flat stages, it will most likely finish in a big bunch sprint. The last 5 kilometres contains a lot of roundabouts and narrow roads. Fingers crossed there are no crashes.

Enric Mas (Movistar) did not start due to Covid-19

*lack of flat stages

Yeah this is almost definitely going to a bunch sprint, peloton just absolutely refusing to let the break get more than 1”05 away.

Been a crazy pace all throughout the tour

Jakobsen looked like he was falling asleep during his interview before the start, poor fella must be absolutely knackered

Loads of riders who look totally empty today - this Tour has exacted a big price.

The rage from Kelly towards Simmons is hilarious

Fair play to Pog trying to make such a boring stage interesting

22-07-2022 3:31pm

Lol he's making a show out of being caught and feigning disappointment 😂

Fantastic by Laporte

France have their win!!!!!

Delighted for Laporte. He's been so key to JV all season.

Squidgy Black · 22-07-2022 4:15pm

Pog sprinted and came in 5th for minor places the mad bastard.

He really needs someone to reign him in and stop expending energy for stuff like that when it's not needed

There was a gap, he gained 5 seconds on everyone else.

Tour's not over!

cant wait for the Paul Kimmage article on sunday about Jumbo and this the fastest tour ever

What has Jonas got tucked into the back of his cap on the podium there? Hardly his race radio, surely they'd take that away for him before hand.

Ah I didn’t realise he opened up that much of a gap since it look like Jonas rolled in right behind him

Already started on twitter, taking a break from ultra clean golf!

Not unexpected really. JV is the new Rabobank so has baggage to deal with rightly or wrongly.

Pat McQuaid pops up in the replies.

Silver lining for Sam in that this has been the worst tour for sprinters ever!
