re: LE TOUR v.110: All Things Tour de France 2023-That's a Wrap! Results in Post 2

Watched Chris Horner video yesterday. He talked about Bernal, and as he was about to win the TDF, NBC producers were in his ear telling him to declare Bernal the next big thing that could go on a tear at the TDF - and Horner refused. Basically saying he thought highly of Bernal but didn't have him in that category.

The impression I got was that Chris is his own man and that might explain why he's not with NBC any more. He wouldn't just say whatever they wanted him to say.

Horner mentions Julian Alaphillipe winning the ITT, beating Geraint, but if Geraint had won that ITT and gone into yellow, Bernal would have been the domestique.

It was interesting to hear him discuss this. I forget some of these details as the races go by.
