Fireworks On Alpe d’Huez! | Tour De France 2022 Stage 12 Highlights

Great to see Froome back up the front again after those injuries. Love this TDF so far.

yep - following a horrific injury its even an achievement that he has made it back on a bike, let alone smashing the Alpe

[@susanhill8332]

Pidcocks victory outstanding. Geraint still with a good chance of podium finish. One of best TDFs I've seen.

[@ForeverDayGreen]

Don't really see a world where he doesn't finish top3. His tactic seems to be to stick to pogs and jonas' wheels as much as possible and nobody else seems to be able to do that thus far.

[@susanhill8332]

@RollinRat Yes Geraint a top contender against the clock. As you say halfway through and more excitement to come. And stage 11 will stay in my memory for a long long time. Has to be one of the greatest stages of all time.

What a motor on this kid my goodness , getsome miles and more racing under his belt he’s got unlimited potential.

[@kgarg92]

Damn, Roglic is just too strong a domestique. He is burning himself out every stage to make sure there is no competetion left for Vingo except Pogacar. Dropping Quintana and Bardet was immense effort. And finally we get to see the Kuss at his best again..Vingo is just playing with Pogacar now,easily on his wheel everytime, dropping every one else when needed.

[@jimmysteele9768]

[@jimmysteele9768]

And room is snake bit in tour very unlucky

[@jimmysteele9768]

Meant rogolic

[@gerhardw.933]

Roglic is in this team a better domestique for Vingo than the other way around. Vingegaard is younger and mentally stronger (especially against Pogacar), and, important, crashes far less and is therefor more reliable than his teammate. This Tour marks another chapter for Jumbo Visma which started, in my opinion, with the loss of Roglic against Pogacar on the final day of the Tour two years ago.

[@denmark2680]

Vingegaard can do it by him self, he’s a much better climber than Roglic!!!

[@errickrichardson2520]

Piddcock's mountain bike skills in full effect. Its really fun to watch these guys cross over and do well.

[@fleezy1579]

Im a Tadej fan and i am glad Tadej experienced what he did in stage 11, it will only make him stronger for the future. He had to experience what it feels like to break and now he knows his limits and what to train for. Vingegaard will win this year and if both are healthy next year it will be a battle. Vingegaard was lucky this year he has 2x times stronger team then pogaca. Pogaca ran out of energy when Vingegaard got away because Pogacar did not feed enough.

[@jonhockey6336]

A lot of the experts were predicting Pogacar to win this stage, it seemed obvious to me that with little team support and the might of Jumbo Visma behind Vingegaard that a breakaway would get a big lead and they wouldn't be worried about chasing it down and Pogacar would have to just sit and wait behind Vingegaard till the rest of his team was used up, which was how it played out. I think Vingegaard could have pushed more on this if he wanted or needed to and dropped Pogacar again.

[@dannyrose8699]

No, because Pogacar didn't have to counter all attacks now, he only has to attack Vingegaard. Because he countered everything he used all his energy and got dropped.

[@miranassy2759]

The organizers need barriers all the way up, especially on Alpe d'huez. One point in the climb, some muppet with a smokebomb or whatever they're called, ran so that all that smoke went right into the faces of Vingegaard, Pogacar and Thomas, the top 3 of this race. It's a disgrace that so many dumb people with the potential to ruin the race is allowed so close. Did they learn nothing from the omi-opi woman, or the man who pulled down Nibali with a camera strap ON THIS VERY CLIMB
