It just wouldn't be the Tour de France without a painting of Peter Sagan (Bora-Hansgrohe). Sagan was the last of the sprinters to loose the tail of the peloton on the way up the Category 1 climb of the Col de la Liguiere. After this climb the sprinters, and the rest of the peloton, were facing two trips over the "beast of Provence" also called Mont Ventoux. It was going to be a very hard day for the best climbers, the grupetto would be struggling to finish the day inside of the time limit. For those who don't know, their is a maximum time the last riders are given to finish the stage. It is based on a percentage of the time of the stage winner that factors in the overall speed of the stage and the difficulty of the climbs the peloton faced.
I am waiting to see if Sagan will come good in the second half of this Tour. I certainly hope so.
