When Teammates Attack Each Other - Ayuso vs Almeida | Volta a Catalunya 2022 Stage 7 

The way this is showing up on my page during the 2024 tdf......

I was really worried we wouldnt get enough drama this year as movistar dont have their trident anymore, but uae fills the gap perfectly

The guy pacing the group with baby bike seat. 5:35 😂💯

it's honestly hilarious to watch UAE being basically incapable of properly organizing themselves when Pogacar isn't there

Johannessen was PISSED after the stage. Although it was his first WT stage race ever, he is harsh on himself and has an incredible winner mentality. He really wanted to win today and he was clearly the strongest rider. Really disappointing finish with the terrible cooperation in the front group, but this is not the last we see of him.

What's the story with "Johannessen, enemy of the Lantern Rouge Cycling Podcast"?

It's the perks of being spanish in a spanish race and having big gap between self-image and real image: Soler and Ayuso are showing at Movistar tactics are all about.

From my perspective, Almeida should have been made the solo leader once he won the queen stage and became the race leader. It's silly not to make him the leader once he got the leader's jersey. Though Almeida seriously needs to improve his race positioning, if Ayuso had given 100% and pulled as hard as he could with Costa during the climb yesterday, we all know that Almeida would have won the race for UAE... Who's it to blame? Ayuso? the Director?

Kudos to dad with toddler on bike, kicking to keep pace with the leaders. 6:53. Good show, dad.

Lanterne throwing down the hammer. Consider me a friend of the podcast.

And then they wait for the better sprinters to catch up XD

UAE doing a Movistar 😂

ayuso is 19 years old, so it's ok that he doesnt know any tactics but he needs to learn fast because he needs to know that almeida is the team leader and never to leave him ever

@NORCAL cycling is mad mad…..thank you LR crew for all you do!

5:32 lol the bicyclist trying to chase up with his kid in the back, love it

I think ayuso has issues with being a domestique, this was not the first time this happened in this stage race.. I'll be watching for future stage races.. I am a full higuita fanboy tho

The "not working radio excuse"...it seems to me that Almeida made a huge mistake on signing with UAE.

UAE really did some moviestar tactics in this race

Hey Lantern, why is Tobias Johannessen an enemy of the channel?

Maybe UAE have a competition to see who will be leader lol. That was a mess

Almost a phenomenal stage. After Ayuso/Johannessen gapped Carapaz and Quintana on the last climb I was so excited, but UAE disappoint once again

Whenever their leader is in struggle (rarely ever happened at UAE) they seem to not know what to do. Like Mcnulty in the basque country last year, Pogacar was pacing for him for a good while, even though it was clear Mcnulty wasn't going far that stage. It made them lose the race instantly as a group with all the other favorites were ahead. I have also seen it a bit during the one day classics where it was pretty much only Polanc working for them but despite outnumbering other teams they don't commit to a pace or don't seem to agree on who to work for. It's the best climbing team on paper at the moment but there seems to be little cohesion between all of them. Yesterday and today also a good example as said in this video. If they waited yesterday on Rui Costa they could have paced with a fresher Soler and Costa until the later climbs. And yes, Ayuso should have done some work too.

The UAE team “tactics” have made me even more excited for the Itzulia Basque Country. Let’s see how the go with McNulty on the team. That dude has been on fire.

Ayuso and remco should work nice together! Both talents both good to screw team mates

5:36 Love the dad with his child in a carrier sprinting while the pro riders are jockeying for position. ;}

Higuita looks stronger than I would have expected him to. Curious if he can keep his form until la vuelta. He could have a decent shot at podium

For what it's worth, Almeida did acknowledge making a mistake during yesterday's stage on his facebook page.

Ist WT win for Baggioli and he looks like he just took out the city limit signpost finish line on a club ride.

Always brilliant

Someone needs to teach Atilla Valter how to be aero in a sprint; that elbows-out, head-up sprint position at 6:14 is worse than Froome

Best highlights packages on YT. GCN not bad, but this is better 👍

5:37 see the madlad with the child on his bike going the same pace as the GC group? Moviestar should call him!

Johannessen angery bunny hops at the finish line deserved a mention tbf

I'd love for you to do a survey on how your audience's viewing habits have changed since watching your channel. Because my answer would be, I went from watching the tour every year and nothing else, to watching every world tour race in the space of less than a year. Would be interested to see how you have grown cycling's audience

Are their antics this week an attempt to get a place on the Giro/Tour squad? Need to bring Pog in to calm the boys down.

I hold the director fully in charge of this mess. If radios aren't used then yes, its on the teammates.

I don’t think the uae guys like each other, it’s not just that they don’t help each other but it seems like they do things that hurts the other.

16, 17, 18% gradients and they're racing up them. I was gasping and spinning my way up 12% yesterday in survival mode, forget trying to attack someone else!!!

Kaden groves only lost 1 min 28 too. Dude is in amazing form

where did you see the provisional list for basque country?

Complete shambles honestly. Sad to see, happy for higuita tho. Seems like Almeida was a bit robbed by UAE themselves, even though he obviously also fucked up

UAE director are showing that they have no hand on that team. Pogacar is the Everything man on that team. Its pure ass move, to fully blame Ayuso yesterday, when Almeida has clearly a Very Huge problem on positioning, he has amazing legs to climb at his pace not caring about positining that much but in other situations he needs to use is head. Costa and Pogacar have alot to teach him how to positioning. Ayuso looked like a fool yesterday for not working (because lets be honest if the team is working for intermediate sprints for one goal you need to do it too on the next day, but the same can be told about almeida positionign for the same intermediate sprint being aweful..) And today he did the same exact thing. On the descend almeida tells him to relay and he doesn't do it ? your're crakcked but at least go to the front, you cant pull harder pull what you can, you will make lesser dumb figure. He's young and dumb, but needs to look at this and learn. UAE has amazing team on paper and individual, but on the road we see how bad they are. And how much they need to grow. (last year 11/14 WT victories were from pogacar, not Team emirates but team pogacar).

Almeida needs to step up as a leader. Ayuso was way out of line yesterday and today. What a mess UAE was in this race.

Almeida should have stayed with quick step. He wont get the same chances on UAE even if QS is the evenepoel show

Have to admit, Higuita surprised me

Can we have some Context on why TJH is an enemy of the pod haha

Oh man I gotta ask, at first I thought it was my TV during la vuelta last year but it seems they do some weird grey scale stuff??? I kinda see it on your videos too, some of greens are shown as greys

Same yesterday by the Ronde Fdj Madouas in 1 group Küng attacked in 2 group why that happens ?!

i hate how theyve been cutting the starting ribbon

They probably have an internal bet on who will have the better time within the team. Whoever gets the better time this race is GC for the next. Only explanation I can think of.

Hot take but if Soler is in a race with Pog, Almeida, or Ayuso, he should be dom unless one of the three completely have shit for or blow up. I think if Ayuso gets more consistent and Almeida also (and gets less shit at descending and stronger on the longer climbs), Soler cannot compete with them. Soler is fourth fiddle in UAE

Why is Johanneson an enemy of the show?

Movistar syndrome: having too many good iberian riders resulting in absolute shambles for the team.

Therefore it was better what Miguel Angel Lopez did than what Ayuso and Soler did to Their team mate Almeida, attacking your team mate is bad

Portuguese twitter better get ready for a shitshow at the giro if they take ayuso lol

UAE without Pogačar are the new meme team!!

Dad sparks it at 5:35 😎

@Lanterne Rouge what team do you think is it better to serve the leader to each race? Lets imagine Ayuso will lead the Basque Country and João Almeida will lead Giro. UAE Basque Country start-list: AYUSO Juan, BENNETT George, FISHER-BLACK, Finn, FORMOLO Davide, MAJKA Rafał, MCNULTY Brandon, SOLER Marc UAE Giro:Start-list: RICHEZE Maximiliano, GAVIRIA Fernando, ULISSI Diego, ALMEIDA João, COSTA Rui, COVI Alessandro, FORMOLO Davide.

UAE was a joke. Dont tell me they were playing the card of the two leaders from the begining because they were not. They Lost the Race because of Ayuso not giving a s#€t about his team leaders being in the leaders Jersey and not pacing ever. He would suit much Movistar in the future were everybody does what they want and in the end fall short on every Sommet finish.

I am disappointed for not make single video about bimiam grimay

@LR, I'm missing your coverage of the women's races. What's going on?

@Laterne Rouge 2:55 It seems... It seems? So you just don´t know where your talking about, right?

Ayuso stating he wants to be better than pogacar during training might have ruffled some feathers seems he has been frustrated and showing it with Soler already can't afford that : ) he wasn't happy with Soler stage 3 ,almeida stage 4, attacked on descent stage six little demonstrative sitting up asking bike time check comm's issues... someone should remind him pogacar won l'avenir, then Algarve , and California in 2019 before going to Vuelta to work for fabio aru, so humble start and eventually rode himself onto podium. We know what's happened since, I think either could have won this race strength wise with cohesion but almeida starting stage six way too far back was mistake as he admitted and lack of communication/cohesion just looks unprofessional. Ineos had strength but still lost porte sickness they have 0 excuses uae only lost a lead out man. Chapeau higuita, and carapaz formigal style attack that stage was made for it , uae wasn't in good position and still shouldn't have mattered if they went to front and pulled it back others would help once they thought stage was winnable they shouldn't need arkea in that instance. Ayuso showed that pulling back a minute in short distance if he'd done it on rolling dry terrain or climb with team changes race. Crazy. Credit and cojones on duo higi and carapaz , side note carapaz celebration winning two up sprint with higi seemed dramatic no? I love that they sprinted after all that effort again cojones but higuita had race lead and waited on descents all day, maybe his style and what makes him so scrappy kudos 180 k 💪🤙

Honestly if Ayuso is doing that, just because the director give him the freedom to go solo, otherwise I don't see a rookie of 19 years old , doing what he wants

Clown performance by Ayuso in this Volta

Girmay doing king shit

Hopefully this doesn't happen to Pogacar...

Bicycle

It is not that interesting B c wva mvp roglic pogacar not there

Is UAE a powder keg bigger than Movistar? whe POG is not on the helm WHO Is there to take the team on a leash and follow the lead? Ayuso and Soler are showing they come this far from a school of spoiled brat young cyclist? do they have to wait on the line or keep play landa?
