Welcome back to J.B. Squared. Very excited for today's show. I'm J.B. Hager. I'm joined by Yohan Berniel. And wow, what a day. I mean, just a G.C. battle, extraordinary and a shakeup in the overall podium. Really, really good stuff to dig into today. If you listened to the move earlier, I think you're

going to want to stick around and hear Johan's opinion of which team has the upper hand,

momentum, whatever you want to call it. We'll get into all of that on today's episode of J.B. Square.

Okay, Johan, I'm really excited to talk about today's stage. I want to

spend some time on the winner. I want to obviously spend time on UAE and Jumbo. But I think

it's important to talk about the crash early on. Yeah. And the coverage did a really good job of doing, they called it a split.

They did a split screen of live and a flashback. I like that because if you tune in like bringing

you up to speed, but it's not very often that you see a crash in cycling where they pause the race, you know, and I think it was like 24 minutes.

And it was a long time.

It was a long time.

So, you know, it was early in the stage.

I think about after like 10 kilometers, there was a lot of attacks.

And they actually didn't, they did, they didn't have the crash

filmed, but, but apparently, uh, from what I read afterwards, there must have been some

oil on the road in a turn. And so about 40 riders went down. Uh, it was clear immediately that

there were some riders who were hurt.

You know, we lost Roman Bardett today.

I think a concussion.

We lost Dewey Manchin's who was in 12 to 13th position.

We lost Pedrero from Mobistar, I think, and then Chavez.

Officially, you know, the explanation was that there was a lack of ambulances.

I don't know if that's true or not.
