Motorbike caused it, awesome.
To be fair though the spectators where probably crowding the road and that's why the sudden stop happened.
>>69542794
You're allowed to run but you have to finish with a bike.

that cut to froome running has to be the most wtf moment in the history of tour
>>69542780
Who was that one asshole fan towards the end just jumping in front of riders?
>>69542815
This.
This is a consequence of moving the finish down the mountain.
motorbike had to brake because a fan fell in front of the bike. porte, froome and mollema get held up, froome broke his bike
Adam Yates now in yellow

Race is most likely to be neutralised Teafag.
Webm?
Well, the question is, did he really break his bike, or did he go full autism mode? (forrest gump)
This is why they should put fences on the entire climb if the finish is on top of the climb. No ifs or buts or OMG SO EXPENSIVE, the organisation should be doing this already. Fans can't be trusted to behave responsibly. We already saw that last year at the Alpe D'huez. It was a miracle no accident happened then.
well, what were the organizers expecting?
those people who were planning to get on the last 6km they cut were never going to just go home
>>69542780
he hit a motorbike and probably broke his bike. we saw him running with his bike alongside him and then he just dropped it and started running
WHAT HAPPENED
TELL ME
I WAS BUSY CATCHING POKEMONS (GOT TENTACRUEL)
>>69542892
Just run the fucker over, then maybe these stupid tard fans will learn.
>>69542959
Usually the last 2kms are fenced, but since they decided to shorten the climb, they didn't have enough time to put the barriers and most certainly many spectators were already on site yesterday evening. Bad organization overall.
>the city of englel
how can one country JUST itself so many times in quick succession?
>>69542998
too many fans condensed because of the cut km
they stopped the TV motobike and Porte crashed into it with Froome and Molema following
>>69542676
DISQUALIFY FOR RUNNING!!!
VROOM VROOM
>>69542957
Nigga he obviously saw his bike was unrideable why the fuck would the tour de france GC counter would leave it there
>>69542998
So far it seems a spectator spaghetti'd in front of a motorbike, which forced the motor to stop, which made froome/mollema/porte crash into motor. Froome's bike broke so he had to run for a bit and lost 1.5 min.

Meme magic strikes again. Hopefully some roadside footage emerges
>>69543043
My sides are gone forever
On a side note Mollema is suddenly a candidate for winning it? Holy balls, didn't expect that. At least in a better spot than quintana.
TDF spectators should be fucking gassed.
>>69543061
you can always go back to the handegg thread

Fucking spectators though.
RUN FROOME RUN
>>69543043
That's his competitive instinct kicking in. He just has to reach dat finish line.
>>69543137
This. Is there a more beta driver than Quintana atm?
>>69543132
dura-ace cleats? they are pretty similar. Or do people not use them?
>>69543061
motorbikes are to blame, too often they're responsible for accidents
This was good for the excitement. Team Sky have some time to make up instead of just steamrolling everyone
>>69543160
H-he's fast!
Froome isn't really British anyway.
So who cares
>>69542756

>Quintana "attacking"
>>69543190
It's going to be okay, pham. Froomey will get his revenge by being the better rider.
He basically got what he deserved for stopping the peleton for his pis, when in reality he was basically just using it as an alibi for getting his teammates up after the crash
This shit was fucking hilarious, still disappointed Quintana was so shit today.

If not it might be Look, I don't know.

>>69543218
ebin
will he get the most combative award?
>Froome's bike stolen by a group of part time plumbers
>>69543245
He was certainly channelling his ancient Kenyan ancestry somewhere when running up that hill.
TdF officials should intervene. Totally unacceptable to have placement determined by maniacally fans.
I have a hard time liking Froome but him running up the Ventoux is gonna be a Nicky Roche moment in cycling history.
>>69543122
>mad english dog

>>69543276
His bike wasn't stolen, he carried it and then left it on a motorbike and started running on his own.
>>69543273
they should give that
and then DQ him
>good job, good effort, Chris
>>69543286
Eddy Merckx got punched in the lever in the 70's he lost the tour due to that, the organization didn't intervene.
>>69543286

>>69543286
>Nicky
I just woke up and am retarded. I meant Stephen.
>>69543286
They are going to do that any moment. But Froome was running without his bike and it's also against the rules. So they are going to have a hard time fixing this shit.
Froome provisionally 6th.
53 seconds down
>>69543313
Depends on big the name is.
Good thing they didn't ride all the way to the top of the mountain. That could've been dangerous. Somebody could have crashed.
All those freaks that go running after the cyclists should be arrested and fined. Gendarmes are too lenient.
>>69543306
Someone needs to boil this piece of shit alive
>>69542676
Hey Chris, I'm home alone
Fuck off, I'm still at the stage

As if the race isn't hard enough. Let's add people in the mix! You have to dodge them to avoid crashing, and if they purposely hit you it's your fault.

HATERS BTFO
I didn't watch the finish.
What do you guys mean, they're making shit up? Did Froome not finish in whatever time it is in the race results??
>>69544073
It's not that Froome got hit, it's that he actually gains time on the people he got hit along with despite coming in later than them. The fact that his mechanical troubles weren't resolved quickly enough is a blunder on Sky's part, not something he should be unfairly advantaged for.

It's not supposed to be part of the race fuck stick. There just isn't any security stopping these retards. That's like a fan running on the field in soccer, tripping the goalie then throwing his own ball in the net and scoring, giving the other team the win. Heh tough luck. Should've seen him coming I guess.

Fuck that anodyne wheelsucker.
>>69544099
You're talking about a whole other issue. I'm focusing rn on the interference. Such times should be adjusted properly to accommodate any accidents. However I think this would all be avoided if there was some security.
>>69544174
Subtitle: *
>>69544170
So why should an outside interference decide the outcome?
>>69544137
Well he can keep attacking on 2 second streaks, and then gluing to Froome's wheel to see where that takes him.
>>69544137
Why should he?
Did you see his "attack"?
He makes teejay look good
>>69544099
When he got hit, him Mollema and Porte had a big lead on their rivals
So he should keep that lead
FLEMINGS AND WALLOONS BLOWN THE FUCK OUT

on a scale from 0 to completely rigged how rigged is this tdf?
>>69544138
no you dumbass. This is like the ball hitting the corner flag and claiming you should be awarded a goal kick. Part of the circumstances. Get fucked burger.
>>69544032
Sounds reasonable
>>69544182
is a oil leak on the concrete making a rider fall an interference and time should be adjusted too ?
>>69544175
you can't make this shit up
>>69544174
MAXIMUM KENYAN
>>69544204
Yeah but now he also gains time on Mollema and Porte.
>>69544217
Depends, what team is the rider from?
>>69544217
No. It's a condition every rider must face. Fans getting in the way is a case by case basis.
>>69544227
no he does not, he got the same time as mollema and porte
>>69544195
Look at this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rBbi9B-2QcI
Here the play continues and the goal is still not scored, now shut up.
>>69544213

Yates: "No one would have wanted to take the jersey like that. I am happy with that decision. Froome is the rightful owner of the jersey"
Class act
>>69544242
Suppose it happens after some riders have already went by?
>>69544227
Porte and Froome were given the same finishing time as Mollema because they were riding comfortably with him when they got hit
So yes Porte and Froome have increased their lead on their rivals because they made that attack
Look, Jensie knows exactly what's up
JOHNNY FOREIGNERS BLOWN THE FUCK OUT
>>69544227
u wot? porte, mollema, and froome all finished + 5'05"
There wasn't any decision that would have made everyone happy. I think this was probably the most pragmatic one.
Looking forward to tomorrow.
>>69544256
You started with the fucking soccer analogies like a faggot. It's like getting tackled by running into the back judge. Tough shit, we're not awarding you a pity-catch.

>>69544723
it's non sense, with that kind of reasoning Ocana should have the yellow jersey because without the spectator he couldn't fell
>>69544723
Froome warned them about this shit, he told them dawg
>>69544698
Their Danish DS said that Henao has the smallest bike on the team and Froome one of the biggest, so it would be even more wasted to time to get on and then off a few seconds later

There getting less time they they deserved , this is somehow 'unfair'
fuck off
>>69544832
It's simply how cycling work, we didn't need a soften cycling. But I repeat the only problem here is the reclassification without regulatory basis.
why is froome such a divisive guy?
>>69544926
Yeah, I'm on Froome's side, but it makes me vaguely uncomfortable. But, he was killing it on that last leg and probably could have gained even more time if the crash hadn't happened.
At least there are a lot of stages left.
>>69544926
>we didn't need a soften cycling
how about a mont ventoux then, like for 15 kms
this is just shitty aso confirming their bad decision as not letting the stage go up the mountain
>>69544926
Next thing you know they'll call the stage off if it rains.
>>69544935
because he wins a lot
>>69544926
>regulatory
I'm quite sure they've JUST changed the rules, and they'll apply the same rule next time
The Froome decision is bad enough, but why does Quintana have the same time as the likes of Aru?
>>69544926
I've been watching this race a long time, and something changed today. You think Proudhomme is going to let these joke 'fans' carry on like this?
Look at that stupid Polish cunt who just would not stop. If that was in Spain a cop would have batoned him off the road in five seconds.
>>69544959
>their bad decision as not letting the stage go up the mountain
with that wind? no way
they had to expect a lot of people more on the first 10 Km, since people that planned to be on top moved down
in Italy we get often the Alpini military doing security in cases like this ("cordone umano")
use the gendarmerie next time
Anyone watching the replay?
The crash is about to happen again.
>>69543333
Sure, the organisation are as much to blame as the spectators on that one, but 140kph wind gusts and an apparent temperature of -5 degrees Celsius aren't better cycling conditions than what they had this afternoon.
>>69544979
then Mollema was like
>haha fuck you guys
>>69544926
how about safety then?
>wind blowing hard
>a TRUE natural force
>circumstantial in the truest sense of the word

>its ok la
somethings gotta give
>>69545018
use spectators to shield riders from the wind, easy
and yes, with that wind. 20 years before there would have been no questions about it. (also that place has 240 days in a year with winds like that.)

Hahaha well tried
Also fell in a climb is not dangerous. If you want talk about safety, talk about motorcycle and how TV channels deal with it.
>>69545067
He should stayed with Froome instead acting like he was in a bike race. Froome must win no matter what. When will he learn?

I get why Porte and Froome get reinstated, I agreed with it. But why is Quintana suddenly gifted his third place back?
Mollema went from 2nd to 3rd to 4th in the last 30 minutes..
If they didn't fell he could've ended before Quintana and Yates on his own power, fuck this.

Froome’s directeur sportif, Nicolas Portal, was visibly furious at the finish. “It’s fucking annoying, to be simple,” said the Frenchman. “This was not a normal sporting accident. It was not the weather or a normal crash. There was a wall of people. It wasn’t one spectator but thousands.”
>>69545565
NOS
it's totally unclear why Quintana got those 7 seconds
entire Netherlands is mad right now
(with reason)
“The crowd were all over the road,” said Porte. “The motorbike just stopped riding and we had nowhere to go. I went straight over the top of the motorbike; it was just a mess. We were 23 seconds in front and then for something so silly everybody is back on us. If you can’t control the crowd what can you control? It wasn’t really the motorbike, it was the crowd. They are in your face the whole time, pushing riders. It was just crazy at the top there.”
One estimate put the number of people at the finish at 400,000, and it seemed likely that the decision to cut the stage short made the roads particularly congested as the fans had to move down the mountain. De Gendt said he too came close to falling due to the crowds. “I got pushed, [second placed] Serge Pauwels got pushed. We almost crashed because of all the people. This is something they should do something about. There were too many people in the last kilometre, not even space for a single motorbike.”

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Seriously I could understand Froome and Porte but fucking Quintana?! He didn't do shit today, Mollema rightfully beat him today and should be awarded with 3rd. If he'll be back to 6th tomorrow or something, whatever but what is happening right now isn't fair
>>69545611
That's right Peru

>>69544717
based lance
also friendly reminder Froome cheated earlier in the stage
>>69545655
at the crash they were at 23", while going faster then the ones behind
He would have been second if they didn't fall.
He would have been second if they didnt change times
He would have been third if only Froome and Porte got bonus time
He would have been third if he also got some bonus time for his fall (second if he got 10s)
but instead he is 4th, because he is not famous enough
fuck that quintana bullshit is the worst of all.

Injustice yes.
I think most/all Dutchies agreed on the time change for Porte and Froome, but we're getting cucked by Quintana for no reason
can someone post a good quality pic of Vroome running from the back please?
it's for meme purposes

that's probably next, to give riders a penalty for riding in the sun as opposed to earlier starters that rode in the rain

reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
I wanted the Porte/Froome fix, but this is just bullshit
Why did they give those three riders the same time as the other 5 ahead of them????
IT MAKES ZERO SENSE EXCEPT FOR KEEPING LE EPIC FROOME/QUINTANA """"""RIVALRY"""""""" MORE 'EXCITING'
so there is no video of the event?
>>69543613
>he had a very big eeeh... unluck
>>69545899
There are lots of videos.
>>69545315
If by that you mean putting up barriers to allow the riders to go all the way up, they've actually been set up but the wind knocked them off, France 2 showed it during the broadcast when they explained for the nth time why the finish line would be at the Chalet Reynard. ASO probably thought about how likely the wind was to send everything they usually set up around the finish line flying down the mountain before even thinking about the safety of the riders and the spectators who would've made the effort of going up the Ventoux with that shitty wintery weather.
There's also the fact that the wind chill (-5°C at the top) would've properly fucked up the riders. There's a reason why they only climb up to the Chalet Reynard when they do the Ventoux on the Paris-Nice, in March.
Fuck me, the one day I am out and not watching this insanity happens.
Did Quintana break badly before the front crashed or is he still in 'I can lose 10-15s several times cause I will gain 2+mins on some alpestage' mode?
I like Vroom, I really do, but it's time for someone else to win the tour.
>>69545945
of the crash josef.
>>69546117
was 23" behind at the crash, while froome,porte,mollema were still going quicker (1200m to go)
in fact, quintana even lost time on Yates and co.
would've been >30s loss for him.
Instead he gets 7 seconds bonus for unknown reasons?!?
>>69546117
he attempted a couple of Quintana "attacking"-attacks before he got rekt by the hungry hungry skellington & Porte, tried to follow but was too weak, he looked pretty bad desu
>>69546158
>Instead he gets 7 seconds bonus for unknown reasons?!?

>>69546162
Movistar has so many great riders but I would swear they train them to not be opportunistic but instead tunnelvision on some grand plan they have to blow up the entire team for a small chance of big success :/
Quintana is still bro-tier though, I'd like it for his sniper strategy to pay off but it always looks like he is a step behind :/
>>69546259
>but it always looks like he is a step behind :/
That's what bothers me about Sky's "Why doesn't every team have 7 top 10 worthy riders?" rape train, there is simply no way to get an edge

I think the really important thing today was Teejay gaining 2 places in the GC. Even if those were at the expense of Dan Martin and Sergio Henao, who aren't racing for GC.
Extrapolating from his current performance, we can expect the Jay to lose ~20s to Froome every mountain stage. There are 4 of those left so he should be about 3 minutes back by Paris. HOWEVER, this is all part of the plan. All Teejay needs is for people to crack and one by one he will advance in the GC. Today, 7th. In Paris? Who knows. (not first, though)
t. NBCSN
>>69547000
Dan Martin is racing for GC though
>>69547022
Maybe I got carried away, Fabian. Martin is definitely lowering expectations:
>“Next? Just to continue with what I’m doing. Everyone expects me to blow up one day, maybe I will. It doesn’t really matter if I do, I’ve had a great race.”
There are also the TTs, maybe the Teej is not doomed after all
>>69547071
well he has been like that in interviews all tour, probably surprised with his own form and did not intent to run for GC. Now he definitely is but takes it day by day because he does not know what to expect of himself.
Also I am not Fabian, just a humble lowlands pleb on holiday.
>>69547000
I see your trips but dammit, if Teejay actually overtakes Bardet I'll be pissed.
t. France télévisions
>>69547246
If it's anything like 2014 Bardet would need to have a mechanical during one of the TTs
>>69547000
Teejay and Porte finish 6 and 10, who is 6 and who is 10 is anyones guess.
Mollama was just asked on tv what he thought about Froome running:
>oh well, I'm not gonna be a dick about that. He showed us his Kenyan blood lol
>>69547582
He is right about
>Quintana
Fuck that.He had nothing to do with it.
I'm always amazed at spectators who have ridden a bike to their watching spot, or driven a motorcycle to it, but never take off their helmet
there are hundreds of dudes watching the race go by still wearing their bike or motorcycle helmets
its super weird
>>69547839
it's to protect themselves from the froome punching
>>69547839
They are gone in 10 minutes so you can continue riding.
>>69547071
is TJ any good at individual TTs? Last year it seemed BMC only won the TTT because of Rohan Dennis, the rest of them were ded by the last km
>>69547970
He's above average but not strong enough to really help him in the standings.
>>69547415
Oh yeah, that.
TWO FUCKING KILOMETRES
HE WAS THAT CLOSE
GOD DAMMIT
>>69547970
TJ got 4th, 4th and 7th in the 2012 TdF ITT stages, so he's a level below the Wigginses and Cancellaras and Martins of the world but still pretty good. Most recent ITT he won was a stage of the Vuelta a Andalucia/Ruta del Sol in February, flew under my radar tho.
