    Thomas interviewd said "One hand on the bars and the gears jammed"

    but Nico Portal said in his interview, Thomas didnt change his bike, now fine that loses time etc, but if the gears just randomly jammed and chucked you on the deck, wouldnt you be a bit nervous about it, in case it tried to do it again

    Groenewegen missing WvA.
    Groenewegen, Viviani and Sagan all have teammates in the top six in GC. Their teams probably aren't getting the rest that Ewan's are.

    Sure which is why WvA is so important.
    Isn't he talented enough that he'd be focusing on helping SK by now?

    Meh he’s not that good on long climbs.

    Plus De Plus has it more than covered, phwoar

    But there's work to be done before the final climb. He wouldn't be allowed to sit in the autobus as Lotto can.

    That's why I picked Ewan for the first time ever on PTP.

    So did Quintana lose time to go for stage wins or to spite landa?

    He did change his bike according to my eyes or I was watching a different race.

    When Ewan keeps his wheel down damn he's quick, from far back too.

    Thomas lucky he didn't do more damage.

    That bouncing back wheel will count against him on the Champs Elysees

    Yeah, he's going to have to pretend he's mid-engined.
