Seems like I am the only one who likes that darker green. But I sad, that bors hans grohe can't continue to wear their jerseys of the first stage because of that.
spoilers such a great finish, on first look I thought Philipsen was pushing Van Aert into the barriers, but on the replay it looks like the finish does have a turn and he was just taking the fastest line (while also giving enough space not to cause a wreck). Van Aert can't catch a break this TdF.
This stage can go either way, depending on how hard they ride it. I'm thinking Philipsen or Mads Pedersen. If it's a bit slower I think Groenewegen and Jakobsen are faster, but it depends on whether or not Jakobsen can stick to Mørkøv's wheel or not.

Not a huge fan of the new Green Jersey.

Same it's not recognizable enough, prefer the bright green.

Exactly. The new color just blends in with the other riders. The special jerseys should be bright and noticeable.

I won't be able to watch much of it today, but I'm thinking Philipsen will take this one. Interested to see how Cav will preform.

Maybe I'm biased, but I'm hoping Caleb's got a win in him today.

Not a bad result for him

Perfect timing from the alpecin team, just in front at the right time.

I am also going with philipsen. He is very strong, but it's always hard to tell who has the legs and also a good bit of luck on that day

I'm a bit confused - I didn't see Victor Lafay do anything remarkable today. Is he done?
EDIT: Just noticed he won the intermediate bunch sprint from the peloton. My faith is restored.
