Why did Pogacar and Vingegaard Ride Like This? Tour de France 2023 Stage 20 

5:53 the Yates brothers doing twin things, being in perfect sync out of the saddle

Hey Lanterne !!! There is a funny storie with Pinot i don't know if you heard of it. On the Vuelta 2018 Tony Gallopin tryed to go for GC and was really close to the top 10 which was is goal on that race, but he finished 11th ( and Pinot 6th ), so tony was a bit sad of it and Pinot made fun of him with the joke '' good job you made top 11 '' and until then top 11 is a meme here in France, and everytime french riders get 11th on a race, we make fun of them like ' job done, we're in the top eleven 😎 '' or '' Yes ! Come on !! We made top 11 !!! 💪 '' so it's very funny that Pinot who started the joke finishes his last Tour with the 11th place on GC. 😂

Patrick - can I just say, these 8min recaps are far more insightful and exciting than watching an hour of ITV4 TdF highlights. Straight to the point, discussing tactics and different options. I hope you earn enough money from this Tour to keep this going as I have only got back into TdF because of you and Benji over the past 3 years.

Pog is a great guy, Vingegaard is a great guy, and this was a great tour. This generation of cycling is going to be a special time in the history of the sport.

Seeing Pinot ride first trough the massive amount of fans near the top of Petit Ballon was an absolute goosebump moment for me.

I was trying to push Pinot to the line from the screen. 😂 Would have been the perfect way to go. Wish him all the best, been a pleasure.

Easy for Vingegaard to respond to Pogacar's attack on the last climb, easy for Pogacar to win the final sprint against Vingegaard: that's the perfect description of the forces on the field in this final week of the Tour

Cycled from Basel to Munster to catch this stage - and I made it into the Lantern Rouge stage recap - made my day!

5.54-5.57 I want a GIF of the Yates brothers climbing in sync

Gotta love the synchronized climbing by the Yates bros. at 5:53.

RIP GC Kuss, deserved so much more for his own result from this race

5:55 yates brothers amazing synchro haha

The only thing we'll remember from today's stage, is that we, the french, cried today with Pinot. It was unreal, even the commentators had tears. Merci Tibo.

Great tour for Jonas winning the yellow jersey by 7+minutes🎉 and good stage win for pogi. What a tour this year 🙌

impressed with the Yates twins. And also feel for Carlos. It was a good battle for that top five all week.

The scene where Yates brother were in sync is so beautiful. Two identical faces, two identical climbing styles, but in different jerseys.

I am bummed the tour is over… damn it was outstanding! 👏👏👏

What a tour! thank you guys for covering it.

Thanks for covering, even after watching the stages I’d always come to your channel to catch your recaps, really appreciate the breakdowns each day. It was a great tour to watch, minus Jasper being an idiot most of the time.

That Tour was entertaining like a great tv show of 20 fantastic episodes so far ! I can't remember the last time cycling gave me so much excitement

Chapeaux de à ALL the riders in this TDF... This has to go down as one of the very BEST.!!!!! THANK YOU.!!!!

So good seeing someone celebrate the polka dots like winning yellow!

Love this channel, thanks for the incredible covering LR! Its a pleasure every time

What a heart Pinot had this stage though! I can't understand why Jonas keeps looking at Pogi though. It's not like he's going to attack when he can just win the final sprint. 😂

Was amazing. An amazing tour. Had a little of every thing and no bland stage.

Some many things going on at the end of todays stage - great race. Good to see some gendarmes taking action on the crowded sections. Good to see Pogacar happy again, well done. 💛Hurra for Jonas Vingegaard🇩🇰

4:59 the gap is 52 seconds. 1 km later they already passed Pinot, and they even got time to have a chat in between. Pogi and Vinge just on another level

Pog is the best cyclist in the world, I’ve decided. He’s got 2 tour wins already. After those, of course he was always going to explore the broader world of bike racing, have fun and gun for some classics, and have a philosophical approach to being second best to the JV machine. He’s the one rider that everyone else has to account for in any race. His excellence goes beyond the narrow focus of just winning the tour year after year. He just loves cycling and he’s a good sport too. I like him even more after this year and I’m curious to see where he goes next.

Pogi finally has some color in his face again

Pog confirming what we all knew, he's scared of GC Soler #FreeSoler

Just found your breakdown. I really enjoyed it. I’ll be going through all your TDF stuff. Thanks!

Man, commentary, as always, is impeccable. Bravo. Feels like we’re still at the start of a generation of great grand tours, no?

I was rooting for Pinot , and I’m not even french. He deserved that win, but sport is brutal.

Jonas developed that "Pogacar"-tic. I bet fist thing in the morning when he wakes up is to check if Tadej is under his bed

LR back again with the best cycling analysis on youtube! Thanks!

What an amazing Tour this year. Made a bit bittersweet by being a Tadej fan but stage for stage it was an epic year

man, sepp cant catch a break

very good insight of the races! we learned a lot about the strategy of cycling on your channel, keep up the good work!

Just an amazing TdF this year. Loved it.

Thank you LR for the amazing recaps!!! It is quite tricky to get the pronunciation of the name of the mountain range right, as it should be "vooz" in French and 'vogehzen' in German, since the mountains lie in the bilingual Alsace region

insane coverage once again, thanks for every single video

After the race Vingegaard told the Danish TV that he didn't have the legs to attack earlier in the stage to drop Pogacar. In my opinion this shows that he's a human like us all, even in stage 17 he was dropped by Pello Bilbao in the last steep 500 metres, so Jonas too can get tired at the end of a 3 weeks race and there's no need to doubt about the use of doping. People who accuse him of doping simply don't know well the person behind the rider: Jonas is a quiet and kind family guy, an introvert who in the past suffered also from anxiety, and in general (go see how he was impressed by the news of a knife attack in Annecy, during the Criterium of Dauphinée) our man seems to be an empathetic and honest person, the last one you can expect cheating from.

Thanks for the excellent coverage. Every day has been fun and informative.

When you search after the tour 23 in the future, the gc will give a very false impression of what happened. Even after the time trial I thought that everything was still possible, as jonas could have cracked on 28km climb just like pog did in the end. It was a brilliant tour and It makes me really sad, that it's already over.

Excellent analysis! Subscribed. Thanks.

lanterne rouge = best cycling channel. love it. push them pedals.

If Jonas wanted the stage he needed to attack on the climb, he has no change against Pogi on the sprint

pogacar took the loss like a champ already cracking up jokes what a g

I really enjoyed your commentary during the Tour de France. Thank you.

Adam Yates best results in the tour is while being superdomestique for Pogacar rather than leader for Ineos. Also feel sorry for GC Kuss.

POGOTCHA!!! Gutted for GC Kuss 😢

Awesome job!! Im new here to your Channel. This was really good coverage each day. Creep it up.

Heh - imagine telling the Yellow, "if you're not going to work, GTFO." 😆

Brilliant content all tour, endless thanks from the states

Thanks for the daily updates !!

Thanks for all the content. Till next year.

Superb coverage and analysis of the tour, cheers

(Your worst memory of this tour) - "probably every time Marc Soler looked me [from] behind on Col de la Loze with his eyes, with his scary eyes..." 😆😂 Love this guy. PS. Thanks for your awesome coverage of this year's TdF. Really happy to have found your channel.

Campenaerts just doing a little training ride today before tomorrow. Since his teams sprinter is gone, i guarantee we will see him for a 4th day in a row infront of the race solo effort 😂

Thanx for your awesome coverage and breakdowns 🎉😊❤

Brilliant recaps! Thanks a lot!!

I dont know why someone can hate pogacar. Always in a good mood, laughing while losing. Congratulating his competitor right after losing..

It was a great tour. Great fights, heart breaking wins and losses. I was rooting for Pogi, but JV was a monster in a good way. The TT was unbelievable and will make people look a little sideways at JV for a while, not saying he took anything, but people and teams will be looking into what the hell happened for sure. Very good tour.

Tadej proved he has class to me in this tour. Good luck to him next year! Force to be reckoned with.

Thanks, Thibault

fantastic tour, fantastic / best channel - thanks.

Campenaerts has has HAS to win super combative in Paris. Possibly the most comprehensive effort for this award I have ever seen. GC Kuss :((

Love to know what jonas was saying to gull

This rivalry is great. Two kids on a bike just doing their best, smiling. Hope it lasts a couple of years.

i'm still not sure why a French team wouldn't ride for the polka dot jersey in Paris. As if an 8th place in gc is so memorable.

What a fantastic last (real) stage for this TdF, this Pinot thing was epic. 😍

5:52 the synergy between the yates brothers

I feel really sorry for Kuss. But what a great finish for Pinot. Awesome rider!

Pogacar just has the joy and resilience of a child. He enjoys himself no matter what.

Best channel for recap on stages on youtube

As soon as the video cut to Gaudu, it looked to me like his hamstring had cramped up and he grabbed it.

Thanks for the memories. Viva La Tour.

Nice stage but found it weird vinogaard didn't go with gall and make it just the three of them. Weird. In the end it didn't matter I suppose.

Great coverage/recap 👍

To everyone saying Jonas is boring. The plan was to attack for the stage win on the climb, but Jonas had a bad day and didn't have the legs for it - and yet he ended up 3rd. The man is a great rider, but he's also not superhuman. He's tired after 3 weeks.

When do you get access to the onboard the World Feed has? Also, when do you join Bob and Phil? Your insight into the team dynamics and goals of the riders is more interesting to watch than Sam/Paul/Brent. The only thing you don't have is the Sam take on randomness from the stage. (: Love all your videos, thanks for putting in the time. Hope you continue to do so for years to come.

Isn't it totally crazy how the motorbike passes them at 03:35?

Jonas nearly fell off the podium chucking the bouquet. That would have won "dumbest way to lose the TDF".....

One really has to like this guy - Tadej !

Soler scary eyes, that was a legit lol

Pinot is and will stay a great cyclist for all French people ❤

Best tdf coverage out there nice work

How is it even possible for a wheel to break while riding? I thought they were tested against a lot more force/pression/shock than under normal usage.

Poor Sepp

Like the Nostradamus of commentators, Le Lanterne Rouge sees what we can’t see, and it will not be unseen. Thank you, old boy.

I’m sad for GC Kuss 😢

Would have loved to see Pinot win this stage, but UAE and Pogi wanted it and that's fair enough I guess..

Pogacar is finally ready to start this year's TdF.

I was quite surprised at Mark Soler holding back for pogi. He's not one for waiting for people and taking orders 😂

Jonas didn't mind not winning lap 20 because the YELLOW JERSEY is secured on his back. He is the champion of TDF 2023

😂Soler’s eyes haunting Tadej forever.

Great Tour this year 🎉 especially the helpers stood out for me, they did an awesome Job. Glad Jasper didn't win in Paris though 😅 Rip Gino ❤

love how this guy does a better commentary in 10mins than itv does in 1h (British perspective)

I love Thibaut Pinot. For you non-French cycling fans who might not comprehend who Thibaut is for us and what he means to us, well the "Pinot turn" crowd is the perfect answer

Why don't we see more team attacks in these races? Like some surprise ttt breakaway haha - just curious if that's happened before?
