Jonas waiting for Pog after he crashed is legit my cycling highlight for the whole year. not only dominating athletically, but also playing it straight and being a true sportsman. A true feel great moment.

Jonas might have won the Tour, but he won all our hearts when he waited for Pog.

YES! Build that hype. We are all here for it. Best cycling coverage bar none

Wout in Green pulling Jonas in Yellow away from Pogi in White on Hautacam is THE picture that perfectly represents the best Tour in decades, and perhaps this golden generation of cycling. Absolutely iconic, where were you moment.

I'm not even a cyclist, but watched the new Netflix documentary and searched out more cycling content on youtube. I found these Lanterne Rouge videos and now I'm properly hyped for the 2023 edition. But as someone still new to the sport, a lot of the terminology is confusing to me. I'd love to see a channel like this have a quick primer video on things like lead-outs, defensive satellites, punchers, etc... Unchained is going to bring a lot of curious people to youtube and I think Lanterne Rouge could get big numbers on a video (or series of videos) that lays out all the stuff Netflix kinda glossed over.

I feel you missed the last TT. Where Jonas also showed to be strongest, slowing down on purpose on the last 2-3 km. And letting Van aert win by seconds but also still beating Pogacars time.

Seriously though - how in the world did the producers of the Netflix special not spend any time on that Pog crash / Vingegaard pulling up moment. Crazy. Was the most amazing show of sportsmanship I have ever seen in any sport. I remember being stunned watching it. After 3 long weeks ... ups and downs of previous clashes with Pog.... made me Jonas fan for life.

I know what happened in this race, I listened to every stage recap pod, but this summary is still so enjoyable and beyond any other cycling media being produced currently. LR is producing some of the best media in sport let alone cycling, so thank you and keep doing what you do!

Stage 11 of the TdF 2022 is the most memorable stage I have ever seen. It's the stuff of legends. First the picturesque Lacets de Montvernier, then the unbelievable one-two attacks from Roglic and Vingegaard, followed by the Galibier with Wout waiting at the top pulling Roglic back from behind in an insane downhill speed train, Pog smiling at the camera just before imploding and Vingegaard being reborn as the new cycling hero.

That 11th stage on col du granon gives me chills everytime. Insane stuff!!

I still can`t believe this stage when Jonas bridged forward to Wout and they dropped Pog in the climb. Never have seen a green jersey doing this much damage to a GC rider!!! Amazing performance of Jumbo Visma last year!

Honestly the Roglič-Vingegaard attacks were crazy. That team up would probably break anyone.

Tadej and Jonas have brought back class that was missing (or hidden) for so long. Can't help but respect these champions.

Both Tadej and Jonas being extremely talented racers, it looks like the the descent made them both to feel the real edge of the risks they take and Pogacar accepted Vinegaard's victory overall. Probably the moment when Tadej slipped off the tarmac and Jonas waited for him and the handshake was THE MOMENT of 2022 TdF.

More relevant than Netflix. Better editing too.

WvA nearly stopping and falling over on the road after delivering Jonas on Hautacam was really underlining how deep his helpers dug to ship him up that final climb. How did van Aert even finish the stage after that :D

Doesn't matter who will win - we want an interesting sports show! (with minimum crashes!!!)

It is no coincidence, Jonas drops Tadej on big climbs. Whenever the road takes them above 1600-2000 meters, Jonas' performance hardly drops, whereas most everyone else's performance drops, incl. Tadej. This is the ONE advantage, Jonas has over Tadej. He's simply physically better in the high altitudes. This years TdF doesnt have a lot of VERY high altitude climbing, stage 17 being the one stage to Courchevel where Jonas has a chance of outperforming Tadej, until then, Jonas needs to hang on for dear life, imho! A nice recap though, I enjoyed it a lot! Looking forward to watching TdF 2023 with you :) 👊

as a slovenian and a pogi/roglič fan, i wish luck to all the riders, may the best win!

Ahh last year was so great!!! I just can't get over the sportsmanship of Jonas waiting for Tadej! Ohh man! i still cry when i see that!! What a good man! And also Tadej that he gave his hand to Jonas! 😭🤩😍👏 That was just such a beautiful thing! But this year i am counting down the days for July 1st!!! So unbelievable excited!!!

Great summary. Pog was clearly out-played on the Galibier but to lose 3 mins on the Granon must have had a fuelling issue too. The Netflix series showed Jonas to be an clever rider, and he'll be ready for Pog this year. Can't wait.

Thanks for this. The Netflix Special totally blew it, editing out all the excitement on the stage where the whole Jumbo team attacked Pogi relentlessly until he cracked on the final climb and Jonas rode into the yellow jersey. Nicely done.

Love the way he waited for Pogi. He is true gentleman. The absolute winner

This might just be the best video on RU-vid. You're killing it and only getting better, LR.

I'm so sorry for Tadej but I've came across Jonas near Annecy 3 days ago and the look he gave me after the little"hello" wave cyclists do was absolutely scary. He will win again this year

Absolutely brilliant… awesome recap of TDF’22 thank you. Can’t wait for this year… and would dig to hear your live TV commentary on a Grand Tour one day 🫵

I cannot commit to watching all the stages of the race and so really look forward to your coverage. Your knowledge and expertise of the tour and the riders is second to none. I hope the tour lives up to the hype this year and can't wait to see your videos.

So much can happen in 3,5 weeks! Such a well made and enjoyable to watch video. Expected nothing less - LR always delivers quality content. I'm all hyped up for Le Grand Boucle already! And I cross all my fingers that no (serious) crashes will occur.

Awesome coverage, I'm so psyched that I can't wait until the weekend!

This recap is so freaking good! Big ups!!!

Worth a mention that even with that crash scare, and despite sitting up at the end and letting WVA win, Jonas still took time on Pogi in the stage 20 ITT, showing either that Pogacar was very fatigued by the end from all the work he put in, or that Jonas just has that advantage in a time trial that is longer or perhaps hotter.

This is fantastic commentary mate, well done. Really enjoyed watching this. Big fan.

😬 The TdF hype is so real right now! 📈

Great video! Hopefully this uear we will continue to see a great show from these two

With Pog and Jonas tied at 1 to 1 in their TdF head to head battles, I'm hoping we see a similar slugfest this year. This could end up being a years long, epic battle.

last year was amazing lets hope for some more great cycling action! thanks lanterne for all the hype, you got me going haha

Incredibly good video! So hyped for the Tour 🔥

Absolutely awesome video and commentary.

And now Vingegaard has won the 2023 tour! Proud to be a dane:)

This is the real Netflix documentary

That Granon stage was an absolute masterpiece

I will always remember the Granon stage

such amazing content and analysis. thank you

This is excellent content, thanks man!

Vingegaards chain had come off on the descent, that's why there was no resistance when he tried to pedal, which made the pedal shoot into the road almost causing him to crash.

Great recap, getting hyped for 2023 Tour!

great video, can't wait for the tour

I enjoyed the Netflix series but man did they drop the ball on the Kuss To Wout hand off story. Epic stuff!

This was a much better recap than what was provided by the Netflix documentary - great content!

Excellent recap. Thx

5:57 is an epic shot. Pogi looks behind and all he sees is a jumbo army !

Both guys are great for pro cycling - Jonas and Pog. It's a gonna be another great battle between them on LeTour. Whoever has the strongest and most intact team when they reach the hard mountain stages will prevail. Last year Jumbo was by far much stronger than UAE as a team. And I just hope most of the GC favorites can stay healthy and out of crash trouble.

I love it when it is so uncertain. Pog? Jonas?..... Can't wait

The problem is that we don't know exactly how much better Jonas is on the big climbs. So far he has dropped him on Ventoux, Granon (first mountain stage last year) and Hautacam, and possibly he could have dropped him on Alpe d'Huez if he needed to. If the trend is that every big mountain stage results in an average of 1 minute to Jonas then the Tour will be won by Jonas. I hope for the race that Pogacar is able to defend himself in the big mountains and that the Tour may first be decided on Col de la Loze. But no matter what, I think it is hard not to call Jonas the clear favourite before the race this year as he has also looked stronger on shorter climbs. I don't think Pogi will be able to drop him once and as you mentioned in your Tour preview video, he will take a maximum of 30 bonus seconds throughout the Tour. The time trial will probably be equal (Jonas better in the third week, but UAE with better equipment this season). So Jonas will only need to drop Pogi once for him to win the tour. If this happens early, the Tour could be decided quickly, but I'm sure we will still see Pogacar trying like last year.

I've watched the Tour for years, but last year's was one of the best imo. What a battle! I have no idea who is going to win this year, but one thing s for sure- an awful lot can happen in 3 weeks of racing. Bring it on! 🙂

Stage 12 was awesome, but the whole TdF was epic! Great review.

Thanks for this great recap video, Lanterne Rouge, but we already saw exactly how last years race was won on that Netflix special 🤣😂🤣😅🤣😂 😆

Consistently the best cycling highlights.

better than any episode of the Netflix series : ) love it, hype is up!

Thx for the review💟☮️☯️

Your commentary is second to none.

The subtitle read “Pikachu” 🥴

This was waaaay better than the netflix thing

van aert is such a legend i dont think he received as much credit as necessary when he helped jumbo visma out in the cobbles

that van aert pull on stage 19 was epic

A truly great tour and Stage 11 was as exciting as it was epic.

2022 was such an amazing TDF...hoping 2023 has just as many exciting battles

Amazing summary.

I personally thing that this tour's going to Jonas. There are less of those punchy la planche de belle filles style climbs, and theres more of the long brutal climbs with the col de la loze, puy de dome, and the grand colombier. I also believe that if jonas doesnt have yellow by stage 17, they're going to destroy pogi on the loze.

Better storytelling than Netflix.

Jonas for the win. Wout in green. Jumbo is unstoppable!

The team and riders strategies still sometimes escape my understanding, but the LR coverage videos are superb!

Lovely recap of 22 GC race before we sink our teeth into the next three weeks of the biggest cycling event of the year. Bring it on!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Im so giga hyped😅...I cant wait

I think the fact that Thomas podium’ed this tour was really incredible. Very under the radar

Most epic sports moment of the decade for me!

6:00 is the picture of TJV success 💛🖤

I would love to know what power Wout was making up the Hautacan

Jumbo Visma demonstrated the biggest masterclass in team tactics for bike racing. But they got away with it because their opponent is also just a guy who loves to race and will follow anything. This year though, if UAE come more prepared and out to protect Pog it may be very different.

great recap

Hype hype hype. Amazing recap.

Jonas is the man to beat this year. He is the one who can drop Pog.

Im danish and were very proud of him and his team

So many good cyclists. We’ll have to wait and see. (I loved LR’s rock, paper, scissors remark!)

good stuff thanks

@5:18 How much energy is used by the three riders in one round of attacks (with one attacker, Pog closing, and one drafting)? Is it: Vingegaard and Roglic each spend 1 unit when attacking, and Pogacar spends 2 units when closing? Or is it more like 1.5 units for Vingegaard and Roglic, since drafting uses up 0.5 units?

pog was overextended on granon and had much lactate that hindered his full potential on the afterward stages as jonas was magnificent this year till he was overextended by pogs attack in stage 4 paris nice and he was bang average on the next stages. this tour will be an interesting dynamic

Today Pog Gotcha‼️ 🚵🇫🇷💛

In short-Stage 11 and Stage 17. Really excited for this Tour, can't wait to see how Sagan will crush them for that polkadot jersey.

hahahah, the comment " didnt make the netflix series" made me laugh so much. when waiting for Tadej after falling

since i started watching tdf in 2016, 2022 season is the best for me.

It was such an amazing tour. Ridiculous. I fear I am getting a bit disappointed this year, because I will always remember how good 2022 was. Im already a bit sad that G and my beloved kämna are missing:(

Regarding why Pog lost the Tour in 2022: I think it was stage 11... and the crucial mistake I think Pog made was trying to counter every attack from Jumbo Visma. In my view he should have just focussed on Jonas and Jonas only. When Rog attacked... just let him go. He wouldn't have been a threat for GC at that point. I think Pog wasted too much energy countering all these attacks... probably coupled with insufficent food intake and dehydration. After that stage Jonas for the first time knew he could win against Pog and that self confidence showed in the other key stages.

Pog for the win this year

I fractured my left scaphoid a few years ago (same as Pogi in LBL in April, but he also fractured his lunate bone). To me, this could be the most significant limitation of his performance. Two months is not enough recovery time for him to withstand three weeks of racing. Especially sharp attacks and out-of-the-saddle work at these elite-level wattages will take their toll (let's be honest, he didn't need that for Slovenian RR and TT Champs). I hope that's not true, though and, most importantly, he won't injure himself any further with that wrist 🙏

I need help, can anyone tell where to watch the tour de france live? I live in SE asia and i can't find a live broadcast of it

Cmonnnn le tourrrr is cominggg

Netflix: "Jasper Disaster, yes" "True sportsmanship, no"

Whomever wins, I have a feeling the gap between 1st and 2nd is going to be a handful of seconds. I think Pogi is coming into this TdF with a better team and better preparation compared to last year. He knows what he can expect from Jumbo, but I'm not sure Jumbo know what to expect from UAE. It's going to be an intense TdF for both teams. I just hope we have less crashes overall, and no one retiring the race due to injuries.
