WvA bossed the Sprint in Stage 1 yesterday

Breakaway snuck the win in Stage 2 and actually took Yellow away from WvA.

Thanks @VetplantLooked for this thread earlier... 

 

So lekker to see break aways pull it off and rewarded for their super work. Great finish and happy to see someone in that Total Energies team actually win a race 👀

Ai Wout, you had it, just ride through the line!

It’s nice when they aren’t the ones raising arms too early 😝
He’s such a nice guy I’m very happy to see him on the top step every once in a while 🥰

I laaik Gaudu. He definitely had the superior speed there to not just the bike throw. 
Moer! Wout’s stats this year:

WVA must feel like such an absolute chop.

Lesson Learnt.

On his stage 1 win he looked over his left shoulder as he crossed the line with a rather demure celebration and I wondered if he possibly thought he might have been pipped.

I love how the first thing that jumps to mind is “oh no! He did an Alaphilippe!”

Jip, but at least WvA threw away "only" a stage at Criterium du Dauphine and not a Monument.

Wout is in Yellow again today, that should console him a little bit.

WvA again showing his versatility by competing for the win on a CAT 2 stage finish climb. He already won a bunch sprint in Stage 1 and will surely be a contender on the 31.9km ITT today.

Looks like WvA and Aleix Espargaro are on the same whatsapp group.
