All language subtitles for Tour De France Unchained S03e05 The Comeback (Tour De France Unchained S03e05 The Comeback) (ENGLISH)

Sometimes you need
the balls to race and

unfortunately, maybe
Jonas didn't have them today.

I could see that
Jonas is a little bit

afraid, but we will see
how it's going to go.

People are doubting
whether I should be here.

It's a question I have myself.

At the start of the year, I just felt like
I was in really great shape, but yeah.

Everything changed in Basque.

A crash like this, it makes
you think about what

kind of risks I want to
take and is it worth it?

Ten days after the start of
the Tour de France and we

can't quite determine the exact
form of Jonas Wengergaard.

Is he capable of fighting
for the yellow jersey?

The jury's out.

Tadej Pigacar extended his
lead over Remco Evenepoel.

And for third place, Jonas Wengergaard
is fighting to avoid being knocked off the

podium by his former
teammate Primož Roglič.

Good.

So, Primož, you can
start paddling 100 watts.

I feel it.

I'm getting stronger
and stronger.

Impressive.

Now I have the opportunity to
show Wismar that I can beat Jonas.

And the best one
will win at the end.

Jonas, how are you doing?

First of all, being back in
the bunch was really scary.

It was quite some time for
me to trust my bike again.

You know what you have
to do to get back physically.

You go to the physio and you have
good people around you who support you.

And mentally it's something you
have to, in the end, solve yourself.

Yeah.

And that's way, way
more complicated.

Yeah, exactly.

Yeah.

I guess for the both of us it was quite a
question mark if we would make it or not.

Oh, my word.

Wout van Aert is down.

Wout van Aert is down.

One and a half months before
the Tour, I also had a heart crash.

We had such a rough season
with so many bad luck and

injuries that it's a miracle
that we are still here.

So now it will be a
pure domestic role.

I'm really happy to be
here again to help Jonas.

I think on the long
term you're still worried a

bit like, do I get ever
back on my good level?

That's true.

So for sure, yeah, struggling a
bit with this question sometimes.

But the timing of our crashes
was so close to each other that,

yeah, at least I felt like, oh,
we are both in the same boat.

We're in the same
situation a bit.

And yeah, I have to
say that it felt supportive

that we had the same
struggles coming into it.

Yeah, that we had each
other to talk with and to, yeah.

Yeah, it felt good to have someone
going through the same shit.

Same shit, yes, that's true.

Before the Tour, we
believed that I still had

a chance of fighting
for the victory at least.

But now I'm not
really so optimistic.

I'm just... I'm just going to take it
day by day and we'll see what happens.

The form is getting better.

I think I also lost a bit
of muscle on the legs.

Better stay warm, huh?

Yeah, maybe.

It's not warm, huh?

Of course, it's
really frustrating.

We had a lot of bad luck.

But on the other hand, yeah, it's also
just something you have to cope with.

We need to win races because
that's what our sponsors paid for.

So that's what we're here for.

Big brands want to see their
cyclists winning races and their kids.

And without sponsors'
money, we don't have a team.

But it is very, very
complicated this year.

After the crash, Jonas is
not in his best ever shape.

And also this year, Primoz
Roglic, one of our best riders, left us.

So we have no plan B.

We have our rest day press
conference today with Primoz and Rolf.

Can one pass me
the water, please?

I don't drink just Red Bull.

Any questions?

How do you feel
after a week of race?

Good, actually.

It was a long time since I feel so
good on the first race in the Tour, no?

Good.

I'm happy.

I'm on fourth place.

I mean, take it, huh?

I want to show everybody
that I can win races.

I feel strong on the bike.

And I'm ready to go for the
win in the Tour de France.

Tadej, earlier on today in
his own press conference,

he said he thinks maybe
Jonas is a little bit scared.

How do you feel
about those comments?

I mean, I just feel and I hope I
have better legs and that I'm stronger.

I'm here to show my
best day after day.

To not take Jonas Vingegaard, the two-time
winner of the Tour de France series,

then you fool yourself.

But at the end of
the day, he crashed.

With Jonas, you know,
like before the Tour,

obviously he had a
really big, serious crash.

Maybe we are seeing a fragile,
scared Jonas Vingegaard.

But, you know, like for your own mind,
you say, well, look, there's opportunities.

Because if there's anything that
Primož does not really feel is fear.

Can you tell us more about how to
beat the three candidates above you?

To have the strongest legs, huh?

That's for sure the key, huh?

He's just pushing, I mean,
to the limit all the time.

Primož is one of the hardest stages
and we have more of those to come.

But he has shown super
strength and he's here to win.

Thank you so much for
your time, for visiting us.

And see you tomorrow.

We are halfway through
the Tour de France.

It's going to be a big day.

Yellow jersey remains on
the shoulder of Tali Pogacar.

His lead now, 33 seconds
on Remco Evenepoel

with Jonas Vingegaard
in third place at 1.15.

Primož Roglič at 1.36.

So far out of the big
four, only Tali Pogacar and

Remco Evenepoel have
stage wins under their belt.

If Jonas Vingegaard or Primož Roglič
are to really stand a chance of challenging

for that yellow jersey,
they need to start crossing

the line ahead of the
other two frontrunners.

Happy?

Yeah.

Really be proud of yourself.

That you are here in
the Tour because two

months ago we couldn't
have dreamt about that.

No.

And I really think that,
like, remember that.

I'm not the same
Jonas as I was last year.

After the crash, I'm different.

People are questioning whether I can
get back to the level that I had before.

And I started doubting myself.

I'm a bit frustrated.

I'm frustrated about it.

It's a lot harder
than the others.

Like, it is proper hard stage.

It's really a lot
of up and down.

Quite a lot of riders
will be dropped.

Yeah.

You do your best effort.

You just go for it.

And then we see.

Yeah.

People say anything
in the media.

I mean, they can
have their opinion.

But it's more a
fight with yourself.

To keep the motivation and the belief
that you can win the Tour de France.

Jonas.

Yes.

You're in the mouthwash.

It's going to be a
tough, aggressive day.

4,000 meters of climbing.

211 kilometers to cover.

The climbs are steep.

They're sharp.

The descents are twisty.

They're fraught with danger.

Fraught with difficulty.

To succeed today, the riders will need not
just the legs, but the nerve to go with it.

Big day.

Stage 11.

Main goal for today.

GC day.

Jonas stays with Pogacar.

Will be a very hard stage.

So, one thing to be clear
from the second last time.

We want to have somebody
with Jonas really, really in the final.

The best stages for him are always,
like, the long, hard and the hard.

Mountain stages.

And we hope we will
achieve some things here.

But we know that physically, Jonas is
not on the level he had 12 months ago.

I'll try to communicate
how I feel as well

and how the stress,
if it gets to me or not.

Like, if I get scared and,
like, really try to get me

to focus again, I think
that's how I get out of it.

Jonas, I'll see if you feel
like you need support.

Yeah.

You made the call on the radio
that one of us stays with you.

Yeah.

It's always the most safe.

Yeah.

Jonas is so important for
our team to come to the Tour.

It gives us meaning to be here.

He's a two-time champion.

And even though he has, for
sure, some question marks, he

deserves the full support
from us to try and win it again.

Everybody is especially super
motivated to turn things around.

And I think that's
why we're here.

Pugacar is the yellow jersey.

But, of course, it's not only one
opponent you have to think about.

Roglic is just behind me on GC.

I'm third and he's fourth.

We've been racing
together for five years.

And then to be the opponent rather
than teammates, it feels a bit strange.

He's a very, very
good bike rider.

So it's now a tight battle.

So I think today it's
going to be pretty intense.

But nothing really
easy about it.

It's just nasty.

And, you know, it's like
hanging on, hanging in there.

You know, like, pretty much for
sure you want to save at the start.

An ideal scenario, if the legs are there,
if we can gap Jonas by five seconds with

the 11-kilometer downhill, it
would be our first prize of the day.

Because, you know,
like what we've seen on

Galibier, their
descending is still limited.

Here goes Roglic.

He's absolutely flying his way downhill
and about to join Jonas Wengergaard.

Yeah, Rybko is
actually on the back.

He's unable to stay with
the pace that's been set.

On the Galibier, on
stage four, Primoz was

absolutely one of the
best in the downhill.

He did catch back like
Remco and like Jonas.

So now on stage 11,
there is pretty good

downhill there to try
to gain time on Jonas.

You cannot compromise.

Today, like, it's a real
opportunity to do something in GC.

So, you know, mentally and
everything, we have to be ready.

Primoz!

Primoz!

Primoz!

Primoz!

Primoz!

My main rival is Jonas.

He's won now two times
in a row Tour de France.

I want to show everyone
that I can beat him.

I'm ready to go for it.

Five kilometres to go before
the first challenge of the day.

Move up a little bit with Jonas.

We want to be right in
front when we start to climb.

The Wiesmann-Lieser bike
team at the front of the peloton.

Red Bull Bora-Hansgrohe
are also there.

Just really focus on this.

Wout van Aert sets the tempo.

Now ahead of you.

Pretty sharp left into village.

Stay in front for now.

Don't kill yourself.

That crashed.

Oh, crash.

Van Aert fell at the turn.

Wout van Aert has crashed.

Wout, the second
car is going to come.

Go ahead.

Yes, go ahead.

Time to go.

Come on now.

You now go to Wout.

Wout needs you.

New bike, Wout.

New bike.

Terrible news for
Wiesmann-Lieser bike.

They needed van Aert
on these first climbs.

But it's game over.

I'm really pissed off.

I just want to help Jonas
all the way to the finish.

And I know I have made
this job even more difficult.

At the front, Pogacar is
surrounded by all his teammates.

Jonas Wengergaard
in Pogacar's wheel.

Then Primoz Roglic
and Remco Evenepoel.

The four tour favourites
are sticking to each other.

UAE starting moving.

UAE starting moving?

Adam Yates picks up the pace.

The yellow jersey group led by
several riders of UAE team Emirates.

I'm just especially
going to burn you.

Yeah, looks like.

And now for the hardest part.

Such a steep climb.

It's going to be very hard.

Good job.

Keep up the fight.

Jonas, you're ready for
attacks of Remco and Pogacar.

Attack of yellow
jersey, Pogacar.

Now the Tornado
strikes and strikes hard.

Come on, Jonas.

Come on.

Wengergaard can't keep up.

Pogacar out on his own.

Just hit your pace.

Like I said, Puma
is a good one to go.

My plan worked.

That was really good.

One of the best climbs
from Puma I've ever done.

Look at the gap now.

150 metres and widening.

And Remco is in trouble.

Evenepoel struggling to keep
up with Wengergaard and Roglic.

Come on, Remco.

Try to close the gap on
Wengergaard and Roglic.

Wengergaard is coming back.

Steadily now on the climb.

Roglic is now in trouble.

Trouble?

Yeah.

Roglic cracks.

It's no fun.

We need to recharge and then
try to put some more in the legs.

Wengergaard applying pressure.

He's coming back.

He's closing the gap.

Yeah.

Jonas, come on.

He's not going away.

Come on, dig deep.

Wengergaard doesn't give up.

No, he doesn't.

He's fighting to get on the
wheel of the yellow jersey.

Pogacar has a five-second
lead on Jonas Wengergaard.

Five seconds only, eh?

Five seconds only.

Pogacar knows that he's coming.

Pogacar first over
the top of the climb.

Perfect job, Tim.

That was perfect.

Good job, good job.

Fifteen seconds ahead now.

Fifteen seconds.

One more.

In five seconds.

The gap is opening even more.

Wengergaard's not had
the descending speed.

He's kind of dropped off.

He's a bit nervous.

Jonas, eh?

We are still doubting how good
Jonas will be on the descent.

We are concerned because we know
he will lose even more time, most likely.

Jonas, concentrate
on your own descent.

Come on.

After the crash in Basque, I think
about the dangers now of the sport.

Going downhill very fast, it's
something that I find more scary.

Because I know what happened
before and I know how bad it was.

There's clearly something
going on with him.

Yeah.

Three months of
short behind you.

Wow, look at the
speed of Roglic.

Dropping like a stone off
the top of the Puy-Marie.

With the descending, try
to go as fast as possible.

It's a good feeling to
know that I can catch Jonas.

Good job.

Roglic goes through.

Ride together with Rimoscu,
you ride together with him.

Last kilometre before the climb.

When we come to the climb, it's
immediately steep and you go all out again.

Pogacar is going to tackle this
climb with a lead of about 35 seconds.

Can he increase the lead?

So far, he looks very strong.

Wengergaard and Roglic
holding on with all their strength.

You have to go now as
hard as you can on the climb.

Come on.

Pogacar has 30 seconds.

It's not over yet, Jonas.

Come on.

Come on.

25 seconds.

Now you're closing
in again, huh?

They're still in the game.

The gap is now 23 seconds.

Finish.

Fight.

Fight.

Fight your rhythm.

Not nice to experience
this when you're dropped.

They cannot manage
the power of Jonas.

He's tough.

Suddenly, Roglic
comes to a standstill.

The catcher leads
Wengergaard by 20 seconds.

You already closed
in 15 seconds.

He looks around and realizes
that Wengergaard is there.

Jonas, come on.

You're a legend.

You'll catch him back.

There is the yellow jersey.

Wengergaard is getting closer.

Pedal stroke by pedal stroke.

Come on.

Seven seconds.

Seven seconds, Jonas.

Come on.

You're almost there.

You're almost there.

The

blow has been dealt.

Wengergaard comes back.

This is fucking awesome, Jonas.

I look back.

Jonas was there behind me.

The guy was quite
a shock, actually.

I can see he's going to go all
out, so I need to be focused.

Comes back to Pogacar.

That's not bad, eh?

Pogacar and Wengergaard
gauging each other.

Control descent now.

Try to stay in his wheel.

Then you fight
till the end today.

Primoz and Remco about 50
seconds, 5-0 seconds behind you.

Remco Evenepoel
has caught Roglic.

There's Roglic.

I take his place.

And I'm pushing
hard, feeling good.

And that motivated me to try to
catch up with Tadej and Jonas.

The top of the Koldepertus.

Roglic is holding on.

They haven't given up on
catching the two frontrunners.

You and Remco, 45 seconds
behind Jonas and Tadej.

Now I have to really give
everything on the road.

And not be afraid to go for it.

Tadej Pogacar and
Jonas Wengergaard.

Now onto this descent
which is a bit sketchy.

There's mud and
everything on this road.

Roglic and Evenepoel
are approaching.

40 seconds now.

40 seconds.

40 seconds.

40 seconds.

35 seconds.

3-5 seconds with
Remco and Roglic.

Roglic and Evenepoel.

Evenepoel are coming back.

Oh, watch out.

He's really going for it.

30 seconds.

30 seconds.

3-0.

Good job.

It's Roglic.

Yeah, it's Roglic.

I hope he's okay.

Primoz, Roglic is down.

Jump.

Jump.

Jump.

Jump.

Okay, refocus, refocus.

The seconds are going
away and we are losing it.

I feel stupid.

Primoz crashed.

Only you against Pogacar.

It's you against Pogacar.

You are already
a fucking legend.

When you beat him today,
you're even a bigger legend.

Do it for Trine and Frida.

Come on.

500 meters to go to the finish.

Who will be the strongest?

Who will win the stage?

You can still beat him, eh?

You can still beat him.

Come on, Jonas.

After everything I went through, every
day I was doubting whether I would

be good enough to fight
for the victory against Tadej.

But I finally feel strong.

Now I want to try to show that
I'm still one of the best in the world.

Wengenard is turning around.

Who is going to
start the sprint?

Here we go, what a duel.

It's so close.

Who is going to take the win?

Jonas Wengenard wins the stage.

Yes!

Yes!

Yes!

Yes!

Yes!

So much fighting spirit today.

So, so, so proud of you.

Just a few months after he was left at
the side of the road after a huge crash,

he's back.

The 35th win of his career,
his fourth Tour de France stage.

Jonas Vengergaard has announced
his arrival back at the Tour.

Yeah!

It's of course very, very emotional
for me, coming back from the crash.

Sorry.

It means a lot and all the things I
went through in the last few months.

Yeah, I would never have been
able to do this without my family.

Yeah, it means so
much to win a stage.

Especially to win
it for my family.

Yeah, they were there
supporting me the whole time.

A victory for Jonas Vengergaard.

Victory for Jonas Vengergaard
on Wiesmann Lisa Bike.

Roglic is going to
cross the line now.

He loses 56 seconds on the day.

To be sure, this was a
hard, proper day, mate, no?

Yeah.

Did you crash?

Yeah.

Are you alright?

Fucking last corner
of the day, huh?

The one that was like
left, you know, it was wet.

In the forest, though?

Yeah.

Oh!

Don't feel good
never to crash, huh?

I mean, I never enjoy it, no?

Obviously, yes, I was just not good
enough at that point to ride with Jonas.

But still pushed myself.

It's frustrating, of course.

Because I think in general, he
absolutely rode a really great stage.

So he really took it on.

He was hanging
on for quite a while.

Primož Roglic,
he always gets up.

He always keeps on fighting.

So we still go for
podium or more.

There's still a long way to go.

And, you know, one of
the three spots, I would

think, like, with that
shape, it's doable.

Tadej Pogacar has doubled
his lead over Remco Evenepoel.

Jonas Wengergaard is one
minute, fourteen seconds behind.

The big victim of the day was
Primož Roglic, who lost a lot of time.

I love you.

I love you.

I really do.

You held it.

I've been holding it.

Yeah.

Everybody thinks you're
so good and capable.

You're just so fantastic.

Yeah.

It's really good.

There's so many people
that love you, honey.

They really do.

I love you, darling.

It's so good.

You can be so proud of yourself.

It's just crazy.

You're such a great guy, man.

You're such a great guy, man.

We didn't expect to win the
stage because the chance

that Jonas would beat
today were really, really small.

But when everybody says
Jonas is not good enough

this year, that gives you
some extra motivation.

Jonas is a remarkable rider
and he also has a remarkable will.

I just lost five from the beach.

I don't think anyone's done it.

This season, it's
been a struggle.

Definitely not an easy
situation to start, but in the

end, I think all of us were
even more proud of Jonas.

I can say for us, it feels like
the season needs to finally start.

This is a special day.

It's been a bit of a crazy
year for all of us, I think.

So much bad luck.

To now then, win a stage
today is for me emotional.

Thank you to
everyone and cheers.

Thirteen kilometres
of racing to go.

Crash.

Crash in the middle of the peloton
and a number of riders have hit the deck.

There's a crash in the peloton.

Crash in the peloton.

Roglic is down.

Roglic has his back in the fall.

Roglic was in the
middle of the crash.

The biggest disaster of
the day was for Roglic.

He apparently landed
on his right collarbone.

He does crash a lot.

On the flip side, he does
bounce back from crashes.

But he didn't look
great after that one.

The podium is looking
very, very unlikely.

He could even be
too hurt to continue.

We don't know.

The main headline of the
day is that Primoz Roglic

has been forced to retire
from the Tour de France.

There was a massive
crash when we were part of it.

Primoz hit the deck really hard.

He's going home.

It's just super frustrating
for the whole team.

It's a big blow for us.

Especially, I think it's a big blow for
Primoz as an athlete, Primoz as a person.

Especially after a day like yesterday when
I think he showed a great fighting spirit.

When he was really taking
it on with Wingergaard.

He was giving everything.

And a day later, everything
looks completely different.

Upside down.

The most pain I have
is on my back part.

So, yeah.

We took a decision all together.

It is what it is.

Obviously, I don't feel good.

I need to move on.

Ali, what are you doing?

I mean, now with the
shit crash happening.

You have to accept the fact.

So, I mean, I
was really injured.

I couldn't ride.

And it was really a hard hit.

And really down and
disappointed about it.

We were really happy when
we see Primoz getting up.

I hate it.

I mean, who doesn't?

You never get used to it.

But it's his life mission.

I still feel it.

That's for sure.

But as a show, yes.

As good a fight as possible.

It's hard.

It's definitely hard.

It's hard for myself.

For my family.

But yeah.

I mean, you move forward.

Will we see you on
the tour next year?

Yeah.

I mean, the dream to win
the tour keeps you going.

I think this day
Jonas was a bit lucky.

He was in good shape.

But you need to be constant.

His preparation for
three weeks long race.

It's not sufficient.

As Primoz is out, the
battle is now between three.

Only I can prove I've got what it takes
to be able to win the Tour de France.

Now the battle to win the
Tour de France intensifies.

Now I'm really
ready for the fight.

Mark Cavendish is back.

I'm throwing everything into
one last crack to break the record.

Unfortunately,
he has to beat me.

People want fairytale.

Life don't work like that.

Everyone is getting
faster and faster.

Yeah.

I always dream to win a
sprint stage in the Tour.

The first one is
the hardest one.

To make sure no regrets.

Who's going to take it?

Who's going to take it?

Come on!
