Poulidor retired years ago mate.

Great attack at the end by Van der Poel mirroring the end of yesterday's stage

He's taken yellow from Ala as well it seems.

Sobbing at the presser after, the big Jessie :D :D
He made the same attack on the previous loop that got him the 8 seconds he needed to take the yellow.
Clearly planned it.
Fair play. Great tribute to his grandfather that.

Poulidor was always a crowd favourite ahead of Anquetil who was considered a bit aloof from the ordinary fans, but never won the TDF despite a number of podium finishes.

How many crashes in the peloton today?

Lots of GC favourites losing time and some nasty injuries.
