Tour de France 2020 A journey to measure the physical state in which they are
LThe 107th edition of the Tour de France had a rather bumpy start. Some cyclists in the pelotonsuffered several falls along the 156 kilometer route, which took place in the city of Nice, which made several precautions will be taken on the road by cyclists, as the Jumbo Visma made a called on everyone to neutralize the race during the descent.
Although the falls affected certain runners who are among the favorites to take the title as Nairo Quintana, Miguel ngel ‘Superman’ Lpez and Thibaut Pinot, just to name a few, others who arrive physically depleted as Egan Bernal and Primoz Roglic, as they let them know before the start of the Tour, they managed to overcome these inconveniences and they arrived without problems. However, the time has come for these two runners to show what state they are in, because in the second stage of the Tour de France I will make you face the hard ascent of the mountain.
Although today they were seen Bernal and Roglic without problems, stage 2 of the gala round will further test the state in which you are both, especially that of the Colombian, who one day before the start of the race assured that he still felt discomfort in his back. This, without a doubt, sow some doubts about what could happen throughout this tough race with the Team INEOS rider. Now, with the arrival of the mountain, both the Slovenian as the ‘coffee’ cyclist, they will have their first big test in the Large loop.
In the second stage of the Tour de France, which will have its departure and arrival in Nice, the cyclists will face first with two hard mountain prizes of the first category and then one of the second. In this case, the peloton will exceed 3,700 meters of positive elevation gain with ascents to the Col de la Colmiane (16.3km at 6.3%), Col de Turini (14.9km at 7.4%) and Col d’Eze (7.8km at 6.1%). However, the race may be run again in sprint after a nine kilometer descent.
The second stage be a perfect setting to see how much Roglic like Egan of the annoyances that afflicted them before the start of the 107th edition of the Tour de France. While there will be no high end, the mountain passes that the 186-kilometer route will allow to observe how are the two top favorites to wear yellow in Paris.
Must keep in mind that advantages cannot be given at any time and the teams will have to work hard throughout the entire route, because any second that is given could be final. Even if it is planned to finish in Paris on the Champs Elysées, at any time the race for the coronavirus could be suspended, if the organization so decides, reason why all riders should go out in attack mode and not be so defensive, something that Egan and Roglic, as well as the rest of the cyclists, must be very clear throughout this race.
