"Hello richard daniel in lionel. This is a question from tristan in paris about romande. I noticed on an episode of the podcast a few days ago that he was speaking almost flawless english which is rare. Sometimes for french. Sports people i wondered. Is this a new thing remember. Could it be related to him. Moving to a less french for international team and finally are there any other scientists who speak unexpected languages that you have come across. Thank you very much. We'll find to your question about roman bar day and his ability with english. He's always been a good decent english. Yeah it's obviously improve the sam. But he yeah. I mean as far as i can remember. He's spoken english but other french writers who speak good english. Well as a real generational change rich slightly to the dismay of of someone who's used to riders and into your french fries french. Well a lot them speaking is now. It's very strange maturity here for francois tommaso to be interviewing french writers. In english he did one of juliana philippe. Our fully policy speaks english because he's on a branch. I'm very he's on a team. Wearing english is is the the main language to current quickstep. I'm not that's that's usually a fight there and it just so happens a lot. The franchises are still infringe teams. And french's definitely language there anita writer to join those teams like lower. Have to learn french. Although i went to a rally on perry pont at the front and he speaks very good english. Yea like i say. He's a generational thing. I i would say. The guys of sort of twenty seven to one thousand eight or under now all tend to speak pretty good english. Some of the older right as you say the ones who spent the whole career in french teams particularly Groupama f- dj on demolished doesn't really doing interviews and think tiba never done tomorrow does speak. She sounds like something they all speak. People pino's brother has coach. Who he noel julia. He speaks good english he does he does but yeah the cultures chain who is changing among the italians as well most of them speak speaking decent english now also about writers who unexpectedly speak other languages or Speak unexpected languages. Few to mind cheers base. Police reserve very difficult language to learn. But i mean unexpectedly. He's wife is polish and he has now become polish as a result of that But still that's a bit of a feather in his cap isn't a Gilmartin the in the mixon. Yesterday speaking pretty decent spanish. Which i didn't i didn't quite work out when i'd come from. The there was no obvious reason why he would speak. Good spanish chris. Moi's impressed me that he would have a go in you know. He answered questions at press conferences. In spanish italian. He did a french as well A few others. George bennett in speaks pretty good dutch. I'm heard him doing choosing Obviously written for an mcewen all lately. My hayman still lives in in the netherlands. I think st boss speaks excellent dutch flemish. He obviously race there. For years. cyclocross races. Mikhail honore speaks very good italian. He has an italian girlfriend however so again probably understandable. He would be good italian. The british riders are different different story on secret. The british people generally not know him me. Nice it for language. Learning the have been exceptions anomaly. She coffee speech. Frankly spanish he's okay. He's lived in spain for many years. But we've seen other british riders listen countries for many years and not picked up anything or next to nothing and david administered france. Bradley wiggins friend. Yeah so yeah. They're they're all. There are a few who really relish the challenge of learning and speaking at the other jelavic a few weeks ago lives in girona big sat in girona. Think about the people who live during the writers live in girona 'em don't speak the local angeles decathlon and he said that if they sometimes when there aren't nearby in girona face speak spanish they will be replied to in english because english would be the favourite language over spanish and catalan. The the number one language. So i mean excuse to me but tristan asked about room body. We had another question about buday. Didn't really rich. I stay twin the other day how it was concocted constructed directed. What role did winston. The dsm teeth slash coach. Play well happily. Fortunately i spoke to matt winston about precisely that in his first season with the morning after wilma yesterday. Raymond a lot of credit for when you made the decision to to launch him on that final climate again. Was this one of these that you studied planned given remind kabezi dies before that it was very much sort of the opinion that day for him. We knew that was a day that would really suit him one thing. That's not been this well to so far is how long it will take the breakway to go. So you do have to be short from the star. And i always kind of bring the kickers. The close towns okay now is is an opportunity we saw yesterday. There was a group away and we came down the main road. He could see it in the distance so kind of gave the radio k. Guys to kick headaches where we have to be shot. The brazzi formed over that originally. We want a few more guys in the break because just help support but we we kind of. I saw the composition of the break enough. Okay we can. We can work with this in a in a good way. So i am a break went out. It was kind of a little bit negative not breakway at the end of course also is a sport car. We say follow romanis strongest climber i and i was saying that to him during the stage guys will follow. You just have to stay patient and we have to use this where we have to really use the calls to take our advantage so we tried a few times. it's also headwind on the last climb. Make easy when you're trying to launch an attack once we got into the mall the mall tree area and it was kind of a left turn when went seven percent up to ten percent. I said okay. This is where we have to now. We give it a go. We go all in and we'll see what happens. I wrote trae across the breakway straight past and continue so yeah it was a nice white state to state and it was the kind of one way you imagine a well. Maybe a less experienced rider and less able sports director. My loans through a bit sooner because prom looks getting decent gap and you're into the danger zone there. Yeah i think we we looked at. I kept saying to me in the radio. As long as it's less than a minute we can still do anything. Open till four or five k. To go when you have a guy like ramon you can close up with in the last five when you think of how hard is false has been so far and how hot it's been in. How hard the paul calls have been. Then everyone's kind of racing already a little bit fatigued so it was kind of a little bit risk but he was also one way. I said we'd have to keep believing over you. Stop investing and you start really thinking about victory. So i just kept trying to motivate inskeep believing. It's still possible we can still do it. And then when he launched it and then he looked he. Also look super super gordon across.

"Daniel. How are your blood sugar levels through the tour. The front fail. The idea of an idea you how was your. Is this a question about the french cuisine. You basically for rant about french cuisine. What were your reaction lowlights. Just just quickly. There was some there was some green shoots. There were some signs of progress On the gastronomic front in france I had one or two vegetables at some point. I can't remember which points during the toba gastronomic high points in general I did have a in your absence. Lonzo because i only wearing caucus song you wearing carcassonne want you. You flew in Especially fully castaway states by top catholic. Had some very good wine lot of Lot of of southern rhone valleys call. They're kind of Does generally moisture favored french wines. In france of long. Look i'm ryan body nice and spicy Which was enjoyable. But unaccountably petit remember other highlights as ways a lot of salad chevy show goat's cheese salads and bob vets a little beef. Yeah and now a very much on a detox from beef and dairy products in fact so much so that not only consume me. Dairy products will try not to ask the krant tours. We have so mile so you go kind of vegan between the racist off. Detox is a good idea. What was the casually like a good one it. It was good. But i'm no connoisseur like you lonzo am. I tend to like it. When there's not too much i always forget. On the different situations of castaway. The always duck fis now. There is always a big slab attend. Join together to one slab of duck fat per serving. Is that right to do. I don't know whether the duck fat is delicious. Should not keep patient. Hazard of the of the cash relate. Because it's kind of in their cups four legs but yet it's a combination of things nature to lose sausage. Might be some some pork in there. dark sometimes goose beans. I mean there's all sorts of controversy about whether you put bread crumbs on the top nor as as kind of competition but red crumbs. I've never had. I've ever had one with breadcrumbs on have done into loose and as well but the three the three spots are carcassonne to lose and they will have their own. Take on it and as you know daniel. I'm very relaxed about these things. If you like bread crumbs on the top on the top. I didn't actually have any cash. Relate this tool because one of the that might fit into your category of green shoots when it comes to french. Cuisine is i just noticed. And maybe it's because i've not been outside the uk so much in fact only being outside you to go to last year's tour since the star of the pandemic so everything fell more noticeable. This little changes to things. But i noticed lots of little french restaurants are embracing us the french version of tabas eclectic. Mix of very well done. Nice delicate little The sorts of things you'd expect from the french anyway. So there are all animal products involved but in terms of the size of portions and the presentation kind of gone away from the sort of ubiquitous. Brown sauce are now danu perhaps Would be one of the things cuisine yet. I think called gastronomic. Experiences are probably quite different. Roy well i think probably we're blessed with francois tommaso who of course knows what he's looking for when it comes to when it comes to the restaurant i think you'll budget might have been slight different from us as well really higher or lower. That's interesting i think they get onto the right. We should indeed. yes well. I gave my kind of broad brush stroke impression to the tool. In the first part daniel you with ash from start to finish the completed the breast parry walk. Did you make of the race. I you kind of nodding along with us. At the first week was the best first week that we can remember. I don't think not saying much dispute but overall what were your takeaways from the tool. I mean i so. I gave it three one glasses out of five and that was i was slightly swayed. I must say by a more downbeat consensus. I was inclined. And i think even they should one on sean sleep for five because i just thought that was one of the great storylines the we've seen in the last ten fifteen twenty years. If not longer. I actually think it ranks among the greatest sporting comebacks alongside tiger woods. Two thousand nine hundred dollars in some respects. I think was even unlikely. And more impressive more shocking more heartrending in some respects than than tiger woods is come but generally speaking on thought. It was really good tour. And i've talked a lot about this in the last year or so and you know the jira is maybe a bit down on the jira. For this reason. I talked a lot about the sort of it was almost so stratified nature of the different thing going on the jiro. So i felt that the the the general classification battle on the stage versus the battle for the stage stages everyday was kind of detached from each other divested from each other and saint likewise with the mountains jersey. The points competition. And i'll like it. When in grotto's the various different narratives to some extent so the interlaced and they relate to each and i really thought that was the case of the twitter front. I thought that the battle for the brave we day always impinged in some way on what was going on with the general classification because for example there was this was this sort of undercurrent of cia about ua how strong they were or they weren't and ability or inability to control the early early phases of stages That was very much related to who. Who's gonna win the stage. What kind of break was going to go away. And whether they that team was gonna fall apart in the final week for example on whether that was gonna leave purgatory exposed and you know a real really positive development over the last few years has been also the green jersey competition and the points jersey competitions generally in tools and how they have had an impact on stages how stages are written..

In terms of g c butter today was the well the penultimate chance for sprinters are so we thought it didn't quite turn island is another really interesting and exciting stage. Actually one that you couldn't really take your eyes off on our long journey from complicated they wasn't we had quite a little bit of distance to cover and refu- mishaps along the way kind of traditional because one of the last times i was here and we did a similar journey. From up to bardo. I realized halfway am to the to bordeaux left my very nice shoes back in poland. We made the rather eccentric decisions. Turn bike for them amidst the finish in the stage. Nothing happened today Well anyway to non starters This morning as we satire on stage nineteen hundred seven kilometers up to lebron michael woods. Israel's startup nation and miguel anghel lopez of movie stars. Too highly fancied writers at the start. The three of no well superman has not had a great time of mike.

And i think there wasn't really much else to shave In saying that of course would attainment and soon as israel was chasing today. He those the bullet today. But i just know woodsy. He would have loved to have been doing it for the team. You know and that's the top guy to be out of give back for everyone helping him. He's a guy who really gets off on that so he would have highlighted leaving. The tour bought the lock. I said there's probably not much more guy. And he was empty. He was injured and he knows he's going to be. Gold is around the corner with the olympic games and looks like that suits him down to the ground. Well m as i say we we spent professionally a chance today for mark county. Go for emergencies. While to go for the record that he he holds along with eddie markswoman of thirty four stages by chance today for number thirty five marks. Was there at the start and a warm embrace between the two of them well marx clearly paid off a few of the teams to make it more difficult for naught. Because he said the saw i mean i was there You know interviewing shampoo denver story. I'm writing on twitter fronts and wine which might interest of you guys. Well might come back to it tomorrow with little stuff from durbin and other wine enthusiasts in the potomac and merck's was on the podium at the village and he said and he was asked the question you know and he said well. I really would like for us. We're joined by eddie. Murray for mocked win is flirty. Five thirty five stage so that we don't talk about it again. You know so it really wished for for thanks and welcome back fronts. So he was he was very you know. Yeah i mean you put it straight like you know what he wants to cavs to to win thirty fifth so no more you know know more about this record so come. This doesn't want to talk about the record and neither does marks. let's take the worst one. It's once it's finished once once cavs the only one you know record stage winner with three wins nobody will will say is is beaten. Nobody would talk about the racket. They're not speaking same. It was the subject of comedy earthy. Lionel has made a a great episode of all about mark cavendish in the quest for the record which rules now into onto paris. We fully expect to bunch sprint and another chance for him to try and claim the record. Outright i mean as i say we were all expecting a bunch sprint and you spoke at the star am to look a message of a team bike exchange. He he's a sprinter in his own right but he's been helping michael matthews in his quest to try and take the green jersey and it was interesting hearing why said at the start particularly with the benefit of hindsight knowing what happened in the stage. Let's.

I'm looking forward to your architectural criticism of andorra in tonight's episode. Yes toronto unfortunately will not be hearing your tale via you. Were going to do. Not but you've passed that responsibility back to me with many regrets. I offer my condolences. Well anyway i'm going to offer on the architectural front. I could see you taking all of as roma nintendo very impressed by you in the car. Today this is the last time you'll be joining us in the podcast. We will be hearing your audio diary. The last installment of my diary francois tommaso as well there. Hello francois louw kate. I was impressed by you today because as we were put on dora. I said to you kate. Do you have your visa for working on door. Your work fees already. I knew that. Not flicker atoll said you said nice. Try shots down like a dog. I was very impressed with that. Anyway you don't need a work visa but we have the left fronts and it does feel different doesn't it. This is one reason why lionel's not here anymore. He doesn't like andorra. francois your fan I guess you get used to it. It's like it's not like monaco like a cheap monaco in the middle of the mountains. You know because at least in well. I'm in the architecture. I don't want to overlap them. The you know architecturally is pretty similar. And you've got the same luxury shops and boutiques but but only monaco newcomb afford anything. Whereas in dora while you can you know it's duty free so people actually come here to buy cheap stuff you know. So what we heard from jelavic in last night's episode of how he loves under and obviously lots of writers love andorra thirty-eight of them of the rightist is starting. This of franz. Live and underrun. I'm sure they live here because they love it. They love it. Charms it's mountains. It's his allies. There's nothing to do with the tax situation airtel house you're driving into under a. We actually drove past joe. Laverick 'em he was. I recognize recognizes team kit and he was standing outside a an apartment block which she said was home to ten world through a pros and coming down the mountain into the capital here. We can't passing professional writers who are training or going to see. The children fronts one of the other things that i think scores against door me on for line lists every time. We're here as you can probably hear. The traffic is horrendous in the capital city here. But that's probably because the francis here if we were here cited. The turtle franz obviously wouldn't be as busy as but you've always got sense of it being very clogged up anyway. Unexciting stage today. Let's hear oh a by happened. Cates not doing it i will. We started in france and seri and we came out to on dora. La laviola with can share responsibility on this. If you on do you want to chip. It was fifteen hundred. Ninety one point five kilometers a really really difficult lots and lots of claiming and the first attacker of the day. Was thomas again. Who else what form that. She was not so much a breakaway. It was more a split in the pendleton. Venar said at the finish. He had no actually intended to go in the break and found him south there by accident. We did wonder about the of his team tactics because they've of course only got five writers left than the race. Is this going to be. Your chip boby is obviously like i know the the. Yeah the ins and outs but it was interesting. Yes because they left yona's bingoed. Who is their guy in the part of the peleton with only my tuna soon which was kind of perplexing to me. Because i don't quite think they're the same size so that if something happened to yona says bike who's going to anyways. It seems like kind of an move. But actually i think things kind of coalesce as time went on when they had of course like not to spoil. What happened at the end but Accessible day for them suspended at the same time you know while came back to help eunice in the end obviously but so were they disorganized or was this actually just part of the plan or do they have a road. Captain that was. This is actually quite an interesting question. Thing is you can reverse engineer. That's true we can sit back at the end of the day and reflect on an absolute massa cost visible because they fought on three different fronts. And really you can. Argue came up trumps on all three fronts. Three writers in the breaker. Which as you say. Kate was perplexing with you on his finger goal in the fight for the podium left. I mean with might tennis but you could say isolated behind the climbing domestic now accent or click with venar in the move at the farm. Was stephen cries. Quick.

I've i've had in the past ten years probably for chateau mary's and we when we knew we were going to focus on. I told the guys. There's no way we took on and not pay a visit to shuttle feeling minella. So i'm we've been speaking to him for about the last hour and it's fair to say that we are spinning a little bit.

Fowler was an action today in the twitter fronts in sprint on in his press conferences afterwards. But we'll get to all that. Have you got the of a top line. Just about richard. This is a little bit free form. An evening because Well we we've been talking to robert eden for the last hour about wine which has been very pleasant but it was staged thirteen of the tour de france from neem to caucus on two hundred nineteen point nine kilometers a lot longer than yesterday stage which i had initially thought would be narrowed on sprint. We told this morning that we were stupid to expect to sprint yesterday. I don't know about stupid. But i mean all convention said yesterday would be the sprint. Today would be the break away but clearly there was some tired legs after the of onto and they took the opportunity to let the break. Go in some ways. Having seen today's course although it was long the wind wasn't causing as much havoc today and it was a simpler course apart from the road furniture which was tricky and cause some incidents that one non starter. This morning marco. Google of quebec next hash didn't start the race and After a few flurries at the beginning a break of three established itself. Sean bennett also of quebec next hash. Omer goldstein of israel's startup nation pierrelatte to a total energies. They went clear after twenty seven kilometers and go approaching five minutes around about twenty five kilometers after that they would just left out there to quickstep. Did the job today that they didn't do yesterday. And they kept everything on a fairly tight leash and as we go to the last fifty kilometers. The breakaway riders were caught before that there was a really damaging crash an peleton around thirty riders involved including silverados had to pull out of the race eight team bike exchange and his teammate lucas hamilton. And tim de klerk of the current quickstep was down as well and he crossed the line. Twenty one and a half minutes down inside the time limit the extent of his injuries. We're not too sure and well. There was a little attempt by contact. Pasha of bnb to away solo. But that was never gonna go anywhere. Fannie chaotic little run into the finish the first bunch sprint remembering caucus on sunday the last two or three finishing caucus on of being decided by breakaway riders. Actually standing right on the finish line. I i couldn't see screen bucket here on if the commentary and i knew that cutting quickstep were in a great position and mark mark cash in the the box seat to win the stage and so it proved they flashed across the line and to put it in the ad just a vision of green really. And it wasn't until a little bit later that i realized that the rider in blue right behind teammate. Michael markov and your philipson with no real changes to the dc. I'm but there. We are richard thirty. Four tour de france stage wins equaling the record of eddie. Keep believing that well to be honest. Mcnish said the name merckx immersed in a press conference. I mean he couldn't avoid us pose but but to say once again. I mean ended up in the past and be before the what. If he beats it would see if it if the language changes but so far yet you know gun shied away from saying the name is said the name today but he told the press journalists. I'm really asking that only people who don't know anything about cycling. Compare him to eddy merckx and it was. It was kate who asked the question. The press conference actually By the record Somebody had to. She drew the short straw. And then yeah i mean. He made a very valid point that you cannot compare him with with any merck's which is absolutely true. And i don't know if that is the root of his reluctance to talk about it. You know eddie murphy. One thirty four very different stage than mark counties one thirty four sprint stages. is a phenomenal achievement. And we'll be talking about it for most of this episode.

Sadly he can't be here tonight because he's stuck in the uk and it's very difficult to travel at the moment and bought. He has looked after us very well as he always has done. 'em the fridges fully stocked. The oven is fhu and with some roost. Lamb shoulder in there. So look forward to that but on it's a great place and thank you again. Simon well interesting stage wasn't that we're we're going to promise not what we expected in our predictions for today. We had one name today. Got char because this for some people. This was the stage Others on dora stages is the queen. Stage is pretty subjective description. It was a tough stager. Isn't tough weather. And i guess we expected the sort of short strength from. Hr that we saw. Yesterday we saw far more controlled display from him with a flourish at the end. We're going to talk about that. We're going to talk about corners when we're going to hear from some writers who we spoke to the stein. Clint tailgate and heart and mike woods and ball crack home. The tail of the top.

He was looking forward to spent most of his build up the tour here pretty much. Progress did not start still suffering with his crash injuries from a few days ago and had a very tough day. Yesterday of course seems like sensible decision. Matthew vander pol also did not start. He lost the yellow jersey yesterday quite controversial decision. It was odd as well that he was dressed in his racing. Kit at the star on appeared to go pass on his way to sign me on but actually was just going to tell people that he wasn't starting. It's funny because some people were joking that he was going to go. Ride lay gets and in the mountain bike short. Liz j sorry cut that we have to. She made a terrible error last night. So few people have them edmond. Burke is an english irish. I know i'm so sorry to the country of ireland place. I respect very much offing. I'll do the job 'em cup of irish people. Complain in very polite terms multivendor. Pull opting not to start today having lost the yellow jersey yesterday. And he say quite controversial. In the you know we had this debate around. Caleb younes early withdrawal from the gio in order to save himself for the tour. That was that was described by some as disrespectful. Good merck's who was seemed to be quiet so far on vander poor when his newspaper column comes but vander pool obviously pooling to save himself for the olympic games in in japan. Soon he'll ride the mountain bike racer and he did say he will come to next year and right all the way to paris hundred. Seventy five writers did start. It was raining pretty light at the start. But it got really really heavy as a stage went on really tough. Conditions and bete-noire causing the of eighty-two our citron was the first attacker sign. There of what that team was going to do today. We saw a bit from dan martin as all he had to go and but it took a while for the the break to farm after several writers have they go and eventually forty-three writers emerged in a group at the front and they raced into two minute leads quite quickly up the coldest sese e nyerere kintana. 'em went while he was first the top. I had a michael woods and omer finally container setting today to try and take the kingdom jersey which he eventually did while polls on attacker on. Saturday was aggressive again. Today he was in the kingdom jersey today and it was Well some of the stronger writers in the break. The stronger climbers in particular. Fontana would surgery guitar band o'connor lucas hamilton. And they emerged the front on the cold. Dupree the first or category climb of the tour de france. This year i mean in catania went away on his own before the summit a guitar and o'connor bridged across and those three look as if they might stay away to contest the stage the cold and the rain really played havoc o'connor got dropped actually on the descent of the cormet de rosello and and he seemed to be really suffering with the cold. At that point quite surprised and see the two colombians apparently qiuping batter. It was a day. When i think the management of your resources the eating fuelling and wearing the right clothing was so so important and it was a stage where that really either paid off. Didn't not final long claim to teen o'connor came back to the two colombians in the valley before book summaries and where the climb up the teen really begins can town nikita both really suffered and eventually came in while dining apparently can town suffered hunger flop 'em and then o'connor dropped a guitar behind you. Et members were controlling things but also seem happy to let the lead go out to quite a big distance at one point as say ben o'connor was virtual mile john. He started the day over seven minutes down on c and the i didn't likely in the end especially when on the climate to teen i any australian theatres set the pace to maybe sect up richard carapaces. But that didn't really happen. All we did was setup tiny puncture in the jersey today and he was isolated. But it didn't matter illu incredibly comfortable and when he to cough about four kilometers from the top three comments from the talk he just made it. Luke incredibly easy there. Are you know we mentioned. We touched on it briefly last night. The suspicions that come with such an incredible performance where he is so superior to everybody else touching on that bentley thrown in the episode to say the colombian suffered really badly am and in the end. The corner won the stage by an enormous. We're seeing a lot surprising. Things in this to the gaps in the top. Tanner enormous gaps. That they were huge. Ben o'connor won the stage by five minutes seven from mattia catania. Who's been very impressive. That quick set right. Italian and lost couple of days. Sonnen cub rally third. I mean extraordinary. Sprinter who can claim but today was a big alpine siege sonnen club rally third gil martyr for franck bonner or fifth on char in six six minutes to down on the line. If you'd have told me at the beginning of the day that sunny cabrera would be gail. Martin i would have laughed at you. But sometimes truth is stranger than fiction. Indeed sometime bar-. Barring is either victorious. Not far from well no. They weren't in far off. Yeah i mean really bizarre performance. But he's going for the green jersey and he moved up three places in that competition today and is a little bit closer to mark. Cavendish shoe had a tough day.

Thrown and audrey car don't go And also francois tommaso. Tomorrow's episode is by the turn of fronts from the new eighth stage race that will launch next year with a lament for likud as well so the big talking points today. Am i mean i i feel. This is one of the unfortunate. Things probably not gonna talk about tim earlier and opposite phoenix. An awful lot because the tour was sat on a different chorus. Today we feel i mean people's raw glitches released a message tonight but he's okay. He's got no broken bones m he's okay to carry on. He thinks gary thomas the same. Just a message come through from any else grenadiers to say that. He's postage scanning x ray. They were clear on. He has not suffered a fracture in his right shoulder. He will reassess in the morning before stage for. I think back to the jiro last year when garrett thomas crashed on stage three also in stage three and he finished the stage and then didn't start the next state. Let's hope it's not the same you know in the end today. He he did all right. You didn't lose too much time. He actually moved up three places on. Gc's eighteenth overall by the after effects of of suffering shoulder by into factum especially in the time trial in a couple of days which can a looms and it will affect them. Sure garin thomas on premature august even if they are okay to carry on the strange thing about these fronts. The start the brittany's that already you know it it's kind of The field you know the contenders that were there was lots of talk before the salvatore franz francois other the full man lead in one prong fork shop. Stay yeah well we've got the exactly Richard characterize it as you may change again in the course of the tour. Of course it's a long race but it seems now that you know is third overall Some thirty thirty one second. Nothing behind much of under pool. He seems to be now. They'd de facto leader of the team. I mean guarant- thomas might whatever happens. is bound to suffer from this dislocated shoulder ritchie porn. Lots lost lots of time. Tale gig on our is is out of contention. Well let's face it in only three days that that what was one of the big stories of the pre tour is is kind of gone and then for rod as we might call. I'm i i. I let kate talk about it. Because she's the she's our rog correspond. Okay what can you tell us about what you know what i mean. He is tough. He has crashed before he. He's crushed quite a law. You know we think his crash last year did affect his his his bid to win the tour last year. of course we they kind of Underplayed the nba. I think the documentary. That came out just before the before. Christmas inside the team are really laid bare. Hi much did affect them in here is going to hurt. Isn't an that's going gonna. We were talking last night but he he and he was following pugachev everywhere. But he's he's lost time and last year. The thing that maybe helped forgot char win the turn. The end was the fact that he lost time. That crosswinds stage but there's a big difference between losing a minute and across win stage and falling on your bottom and be injured and then carrying those injuries into the next few stages definitely don't think he looks great. I was there at the mic zone. And i watched him cross the cross the line and who's really hard to see honestly after spending so much time writing and thinking about him and yeah he was bloody from the buttocks bloody from the leg. Here's like thousand yard stare just like you said. He looked like he got out of the ring with mike tyson. Really terrible and when i was watching the stage i mean. His teammates were forming a train to bring him back in. You know there were times where he would loser wheel. Yeah i don't know. I mean he's a hard hard man i think at heart Kinda got nerves of steel. And i think that he's gonna go as long as he can. I mean i think we'll probably no more answers by the end of the time trial. But until then i'd say it's up in the air if it really is just a flesh wound like i think. He'll grit his teeth grit and bear it. I mean the parts of that hurt are not necessarily the parts and now he's not like that heard on like you know his arms and his elbows anything that caused them to fidget in the time trial bikes. So my be interesting to see. I think that's really the proving ground for a lot of guys who have been injured so far so doll resting on that. We'll find talked about the the luck of the winner in the tour franson and tiny puppeteer actually crashed or at least he was involved in the acre crash that turned but he was quickly back on his on his bike. And this sometime salt outsource the well. The future winner from The other guys th the the the you know some guys don't crash or when they crashed it you know it's not an and it's very difficult to know why is it. Is it because of of luck on your is it because of form or is it because of it's very difficult to tell but i mean it's it's a common thing that that you know and for now the look of the winner has been on on polk side and not on roadside. It's really unusual to win. The third france having crashed in the race. It's really really unusual. I mean chris did it in. Twenty thousand seven crashed in the neutralize zone of stage one. But it's really really unusual. I think i think we're learning more by high. Crashes affect a writer i mean. Extreme example is is lizzie. Buying said i mentioned the other day am are episode that we really service course loss. Week where lizzie talks for fifty minutes by the concussion that she suffered started bankin after face that in the process of trying to recover fully from the m crashes taken i heard it from from james knox one of his audio diaries as well m no uneasy thing to deal with affects your sleep at face recovery.

Ralph hello francois at the front we are in the well. If there was son we'd be in the shadow of the castle. There's no sun it's chilly but we're by beautiful river and joie salah with the castle right beside us here and the race. She came through here today. it's a canal as apologize. They'll never mind you know it's a it's a nice. Yeah the is very pretty little town with huge and impressive castle. Actually look at the history of the castle. The nobody knows really y And it was built. It was built around the thirteenth century. And then later. In the fifteenth and sixteenth century become kind of haunting sounds castle but in the first place it was actually it was actually built around a chapel and in that chapel was pilgrimage of determined. Not for them. The halsey was gone and partly the the people were going to that pilgrimage where we're going into a trance and uttering all s- cries like some of the writers probably did today and they were called the backers of jerusalem so quiet place we fall into trance. During the recording of tonight's podcast is very possible. Maybe no actually. Because you know i was. We've have two very dramatic days on the tour k. Is your first toward the front. So i was telling you wasn't either today was going to be a boring day. The not what was going to happen today. Finally we've got sprint stage and it'd be all by sprint and hopefully there wouldn't be to shed drama and we were kind of craving up of a boring day but it was not a boring dan. This often does happen on the tour where you know you think that it could be a pretty straightforward routine day and it it definitely is an it definitely wasn't a non-controversial day either. We're going to hear from a few writers in tonight's episode including maybe one or two of our audio diaries but the tail of top while we began in the l'oreal in in the far west of france obviously francois explained the irony of that last night. We went to on tv. Where i gathered. Davila party on was absolutely audrey. Cardona regard is from there as well and She featured in today's absolute zero all about brittany and telling us to do and pontivy. We were actually in the end to bit too busy to do any of those things. Never mind hundred and eighty two point nine kilometers. Can we just call eight hundred eight thousand three kilometers up. Hundred eighty-three kilometers break early from coffee. This mikhail shar from eighty to our citron scaling for the third day in a row up in the breakaway from borough grow and maxine chevallier and cereal barth from being be and they got way early and quickly built a lead and there was drama thirty-seven columbus is in three when there was a crash. Right in the front of the bunch. As the raiders went over a speed bump. Gary thomas was fresh writer. Dione didn't get great view of it but he came down. Heavily am tony. Martin came down to from vermont and robert hessing. Robert housing was out of the race immediately. Very important lieutenant. For premature glitch gone and it looked like guarantors going to be as well. He was on the road for a long time but eventually got back up. He had a dislocated shoulder. That's the race. Doctor popped his shoulder back in ninety cents. Simple it was anything. Bu decem peak here to finish who said that he when he passed him his face was white and he was obviously in pain but he was at one point two kilometers playing. The race was escorted by by luke. Dillon van baal on jonathan kosovac. Who am the averaged. According to one forty nine point six kilometers for ten kilometers to chase the bunch because a bunch was not hanging around.

You your long-awaited This morning yes that's true. It's hard to talk about now. Knowing what happens later no spoilers but not great for him. Yeah it's funny spending so much time writing and thinking and talking about rog and you know having chats over zoom in e mail and whatnot and seeing him in real life it's like kind of normal actually We were quite shocked to see each other. I think and It was the happiest part of the day. He was in a good mood today. Actually it was the happiest part of the day for him as well. But there yet. We're here with francois tommaso. Ralph hello francois at the front we are in the well. If there was son we'd be in the shadow of the castle. There's no sun it's chilly but we're by beautiful river and joie salah with the castle right beside us here and the race. She came through here today. it's a canal as apologize. They'll never mind you know it's a it's a nice. Yeah the is very pretty little town with huge and impressive castle. Actually look at the history of the castle. The nobody knows really y And it was built. It was built around the thirteenth century. And then later. In the fifteenth and sixteenth century become kind of haunting sounds castle but in the first place it was actually it was actually built around a chapel and in that chapel was pilgrimage of determined. Not for them. The halsey was gone and apparently the the people were going to that pilgrimage. Where we're going into a trance and uttering all s- cries like some of the writers probably did today and they were called the backers of jerusalem so quiet place we fall into trance. During the recording of tonight's podcast is very possible. Maybe no actually. Because you know i was. We've have two very dramatic days on the tour k. Is your first toward the front. So i was telling you wasn't either today was going to be a boring day. The not what was going to happen today. Finally we've got sprint stage and it'd be all by sprint and hopefully there wouldn't be to shed drama and we were kind of craving up of a boring day but it was not a boring dan. This often does happen on the tour where you know you think that it could be a pretty straightforward routine day and it it definitely is an it definitely wasn't a non-controversial day either. We're going to hear from a few writers in tonight's episode including maybe one or two of our audio diaries but the tail of top while we began in the l'oreal in in the far west of france obviously francois explained the irony of that last night. We went to on tv. Where i gathered davila party on was absolutely audrey car. Don't regard is from there as well and She featured in today's absolute zero all about brittany and telling us to do and pontivy. We were actually in the end to bit too busy to do any of those things. Never mind hundred and eighty two point nine kilometers. Can we just call eight hundred eight thousand three kilometers up hundred eighty three kilometers break early from coffee. This mikhail shar from eighty to our citron scaling for the third day in a row up in the breakaway from borough hans grow and maxine chevallier and cereal barth from being be and they Got way early and quickly built a lead and there was drama thirty-seven kilometers in three when there was a crash. Right in the front of the bunch. As the raiders went over a speed bump. Gary thomas was fresh writer. Dione didn't get great view of it but he came down. Heavily am tony. Martin came down to from vermont and robert hessing. Robert housing was out of the race immediately. Very important lieutenant. For premature glitch gone and it looked like guarantor going to be as well. He was on the road for a long time but eventually got back up. He had a dislocated shoulder that the race doctor popped his shoulder back in ninety cents simple. It was anything. Bu decem peak here to finish. Who said that he when he passed him. His face was white and he was obviously in pain but he was at one point. Two kilometers playing. The race was escorted by by luke. Dillon van baal on jonathan kosovac. Who am the averaged. According to one forty nine point six kilometers for ten kilometers to chase the bunch because a bunch was not hanging around. I understand luke rule was not a very happy writer at all and was making his unhappiness. Clear to the commissar and Ti guvener. I think he mistakenly thought there was a barrage.
