Tour de Romande 2024 Stage 4 Highlights: Juan Ayuso Cracks, Richard Carapaz Captures Win

[@palebluerider]

I turn on a video and see Bernal pushing the pace on a mountain road. Life is beautiful again.

[@loezita15]

🎉Bravo Richard Carapaz! Wonderful race tactics by him. Go EF!

[@7081_H]

What a ride by Lipowitz! Great to finally see a German with the best climbers. Maybe he even had a chance for the yellow jersey if he went earlier. I look forward to see him in the Giro.

[@FloBikes]

I think so too!

[@NeriRuvalcaba]

¡Qué gusto da ver a Richard ganar!

[@RaymondOlgado0]

Egan doing work for Carlos 👑

[@BigBrownMonke]

Great seeing Egan Bernal fighting with the big boys again! Enough to make a grown man cry 🥲

[@steveilg6134]

Ooooooooph! Yessss Carapaz! That hurt so good! ♥ EF

[@kennyponton3653]

Grande Richie !!!!!

[@theweeklynewsexplosion5358]

Bernal is getting stronger and stronger. The fact that he can ride for Rodriguez and at the same time finish just 30 seconds back from the winner is unbelievable

[@SeeSmithTV]

Great finish!

[@pythor2117]

Geez Hindley looked super strong in Tirreno and now he’s really lost some form. Hopefully he prepares correctly for the Tour

[@EMC2Scotia]

Seeing as BORA had two in the top 3 it night be fair to say he was playing the team mate role here.

[@cberto2116]

Carapaz with the snake move again!

[@cesarortegaescamilla1782]

How Aleksandr Vlasov must have felt that he let his German teammate Lipowitz go for the stage and the general classification. If he had stayed with the Russian, he would possibly be the overall leader... I never believed that Carapaz would be in a position to win the stage because of what he showed this year. I hope it will be a constant from now on. Carlos Rodríguez confirms that he just had a bad start to the season. He is a non-explosive runner but very regular. Ilan Van Wilder confirming his climbing and possible boss abilities in Quick Step. UAE the usual... Pogačar- dependent in important races.

[@ReAIex17]

I think Lipowitz could be the leader of the race too, if he attacks 200-300 meter before.

[@cesarortegaescamilla1782]

@@ReAIex17 It may be that he went out to mark Carapaz because the Ecuadorian is brave but he has not had the level. And then Vlasov did not feel the strength to reach his companion. And they gave him permission but very late. We will have to look for interviews.

[@michaelgriffiths305]

Jai Hindley and Ayuso cracking. Does bear well for July…

[@splvne2807]

sad to see hindley looking so strong at tirreno and then not do well here

[@FloBikes]

yeah, too bad.

[@masterblackandwhite3604]

In my opinion lipowitz was the strongest rider but he has no experience in such big races and don't know what he is able to do. Nevertheless bravo Carapaz

[@MarkKanaster-ev6pq]

Bora look out for the new up and comer who sailed up the mountain 😂put him in the Tour 😂

[@DerrickAbucheri]

Ineos cracked Ayuso to let Carapaz win the race. Very weird tactics of you ask me.

[@ReAIex17]

Carlos RODRÍGUEZ is the gc leader. They don't care about the stage.

[@DerrickAbucheri]

@@ReAIex17 "To let Carapaz win the race" not "To let Carapaz win the stage".

[@cooldude.1811]

There may be many Pog wannabes, but there is only one Pog.

[@leangrypoulet7523]

Lipovitz's 'Froome/Wiggins' moment. Clearly stronger on the day than Carapaz (congratulations nonetheless) but simply not allowed to follow RC when he made his break. Instead he floated in no-man's land neither being in direct support of Vlasov nor being allowed to chase RC. Think he'd have won the stage comfortably had he been allowed to follow earlier/immediately. Tactical loss by BH. 🤔

[@recrevs963]

Sneaky Billy Carapaz. Since that 2019 Giro you never know when he will strike. Except when Pogi is there. He cannot do nothin' against him.

[@diegonarvaez7487]

I agree, Pogacar is a great rider.

[@FloBikes]

Big BAD Billy. good win. He looked emotional or exhausted at the finish.

[@xXpenetratorXx]

Yates still out of form. Team UAE as usual, good at losing the race leader's jersey. UAE climber blowing up on climbs (McNulty? Felix?). Ayuso either is overraced or overhyped. He wasn't the Ayuso who gapped Remco last year at the Tour de Suisse. And this isn't even the Tour de France, how can he replace Pogi when he blows up left and right on important race days.

[@nelly-gu2qq]

I mean..he is still young. He has potential. But to replace pogacar?. Lol only in his wet dreams.
