and it happened again

Not including Pogacar, the UAE team got kind of exposed today, they were all burnt up.  
 

With Roglic looking pretty good, I’m thinking that when they get to the alps, Jumbo will start sending Roglic on the attack kind of early, like on the second to last mountain.  Not that Roglic will beat Pogacar, but with only 2 minutes and change, Pogacar can’t afford to let him go.  Pogacar’s team doesn’t seem good enough to chase down multiple attacks on long climbs, so Pogacar has to do it himself.  Jonas can just sit in Pogacar’s wheel and then attack him on the final long climb in the heat. Probably won’t work because Pogacar is so strong, but there’s a chance that it could on a longer climb and Jonas could take over.  If that happens, Pogacar can just limit his losses and win the time trial, but at least this race still has some potential to be entertaining.

I missed the explanation but what was the idiot doing who was wearing the Trek shirt and had some bags he was holding that hit one of the riders and kncked him down?

So that was a soigneur passing out musettes which have the riders food. Knocked the shit out of poor Tibot Pinot.
