- Plugge’s right: the Tour has outgrown some roads. Roundabouts every 500m and drunk spectators equals chaos. ASO needs more nets, more barriers on the final 5k, and better gendarme lines. Vamos, sécurité d’abord!

- Quick question: why is it called the “Dutch mountain” if it’s in France? Is it just because of Zoetemelk and the Orange Corner fans, or did Dutch riders actually dominate there historically?

- Brandon’s been immense on the valley floors and transitions—keeping Pog fresh before the decisive climbs. Bon rétablissement, McNulty. Vamos, Del Toro, sigue fuerte!

- Is Alpe d’Huez really the place where you “need a strong team”? I thought it’s all about the final climb. Doesn’t the draft matter less uphill?

- Pog’s joke about getting sick while talking to the press… mate, maybe save the banter until Paris. Health protocols exist for a reason.

- Bit too rosy from the author, no? “Fairly calm day” glosses over the tempo Jumbo–Visma set mid-stage. That pace shelled a lot of domestiques—UAE looked thinner than the piece suggests. Still, kudos for the McNulty quotes.

- Del Toro’s maturity shines. Third on GC and he’s still thinking about the team dynamics. If Adam Yates is actually improving, UAE can still control the base of the Alpe and let Tadej go on the last 6–7 km. Big “if” though.

- Wait, so if three riders are sick, how do they decide who still rides? Do they test for something? And why did Wellens finish if he’s ill—does that help the team somehow?

- Pogacar handling the media with a grin even while half the team’s under the weather—classic Tadej. Losing McNulty is massive though; he’s been the engine on the medium mountain days. Saturday to Alpe d’Huez without full support could be spicy.

I've had quibbles with some U.A.E. tactics, in this TDF, especially a few stages ago when they wasted a couple of riders in a failed breakaway that I thought was unnecessary, and in some other instances , as well. But I always remind myself that the team, including the DS, has proven themselves to be the best in the world at what they do, and not only in those races where Tadej is at the starting line. So, while I do nitpick from time-to-time, I do so with humility, realizing that they've some how managed to gain unmatched dominance without a bit of help from me.
