Agreed, we should all focus more on the fact Nairo Quintana is a massive binman.

Christ, Jonas is a beast. Taking the stage win would've been a tad much. I think Pogi is feeling it week 3, and I'm not sure even a fully fit Pogi would be able to take on this Jonas and this heat and that monster team. I'm actually wondering if TJV focussed on Jonas in 2021 instead of Roglic, would he have won a 2nd TdF.

Like, Pogi is the better all-rounder and I still want to see him win Paris-Roubaix. But the Tour, not sure.

Vingegaard was interviewed on danish TV. He apparently felt yesterday was one of his best days on the bike ever and credits it partly to being "loaded with love" after spending the rest day with his family :)

Pretty sure there are stories on AO3 with either Pogacar or Vingegaard being filled with love from the other.

Same, we need him back to launch 5 minute attacks before exploding, dropping off the back and hanging onto a motorbike.

Also Superman to smash Vingegaard up a massive climb.

Here's an entirely too long eyewitness report about the road blockage. Tldr: a moto stalled in that extremely steep corner (as had parts of the caravan before), and there was no contact with spectators except for them giving the moto a push after it stalled
