Johan Bruyneel and Spencer Martin discuss UAE's continued stage win dominance with Marc Soler adding to the team's near-absurd tally from the early breakaway, with João Almeida and Jonas Vingegaard unable to shake eachother closely behind in the GC group. They debate if UAE's focus on stage wins at this point in the race is wise, and before wrapping up, preview tomorrow's stage, discussing how they expect it to unfold and who presents the best betting value.

| 0:00.0 | A lot of the riders that have come out of the Tour de France look pretty beat up. Like Felix Gall, you would say, is not climbing at his best. Jonas Vindigard is not at his best. So it's possible that Salernard is like just getting his legs from the tour. And that's why he's not always been where he needs to be for Almeida. Everybody, welcome back to the Move Plus. |
| 0:22.4 | I'm Spencer Martin. |
| 0:23.3 | I'm here with Johan Bernil. |
| 0:24.4 | We are breaking down stage 14 of the Valta, |
| 0:26.8 | Spain, won by Mark Saler from UAE, |
| 0:30.2 | the team's seventh stage win of this race. |
| 0:33.3 | Unbelievable. |
| 0:34.6 | Jonas Findergarde 2nd, Juala made a third, Jai Henley, fourth, |
| 0:37.7 | Felix Golf, fifth, about half a minute behind in the GC group on the summit finish. |
| 0:43.2 | We'll break this down and then preview tomorrow's stage 15. |
| 0:46.7 | Johan, before we get your thoughts, I'll just recap the stage as quickly as I can. |
| 0:51.2 | It was as short-ish stage, 135 kilometers. |
| 0:55.3 | There was a fight for the breakaway. A breakaway eventually goes. The two most notable things were Victor Campanards |
| 1:00.5 | from Visima went up the road. And then to keep shenanigans from happening, according to him, |
| 1:05.5 | Mark Sillard followed him, didn't want to be up there, had to do it. He had a teammate in |
| 1:10.5 | Mikhail Berg. It looked kind of clever because you're thinking, well, there's a hard climb before the final climb. Now both riders have stashed, both GC riders have stashed teammates. They can help them if they need them on the final climb. Victor Campanard actually gets a flat, has some issues with the neutral service car. They leave him behind. He's on a neutral bike. He's out of the breakaway. Goes back to the Peloton. Solar stays up there. And then on the penultimate climb, very difficult climb, Juan Euso takes the front for UAE and just absolutely shreds the field. Like Egan Murnal's dropped, Julia Tricone's dropped, slims it down. |
| 1:45.8 | The time gaps were a little unclear, so I wasn't quite sure how they were going to play it |
| 1:51.3 | with Saler up the road, but they have good support at the front, UAE does for Almeida. |
| 1:56.4 | They get to the final climb. |
| 1:57.7 | We have the same guys, Jay Vines up there pulling. |
| 2:00.4 | Felix Squirrel Shatner is interesting. The last person pulling for Almeida. So we have a strange situation where UAE is polling and then now Mark Saler after doing the, oh, Mark Salar, I, guys, I'm not that strong. I'm getting dropped from this breakaway is now off the front by himself. He's actually the strongest of the breakaway is surprise. |
| 2:20.1 | But see, if you're in UAE chasing UAE, but it's kind of complicated because it's a headwind, |
