DS Race Radio for the Bora Squad – Stage 2
🎧 DS Race Radio – Stage 2: Lille Métropole to Boulogne-sur-Mer (199.2 km)
🗣️ To: Primož and the full BORA squad
“Okay boys, listen up. PrimoĹľ, today we ride smart, we ride as one. Stage 1 is behind us — yes, we got caught out, but so did a few others. No panic. This Tour is long and we’re still right in it.
Today is a tricky one. We’ve got short, sharp climbs and narrow roads. Think Ardennes, not flatland. The last 25 km are exposed. You know what that means — wind, positioning, and stress. We cannot get caught again. The weather is not great. Let an early break go and we can then control things from the peleton.
So here’s the play:
- Danny and Nico, you stay glued to PrimoĹľ like shadow. You protect him from wind, escort him to every front split.
- Bob, you’re our road captain — radio if any echelon starts forming. You call it early.
- Matteo, cover any dangerous moves in the final 30 km. If it sticks, you go with it. We want options.
PrimoĹľ, your job is to stay front third at all times. No heroics, no sitting up. We protect your legs, we protect your GC. Eyes open. Mouth shut. Full focus. Let’s turn the page today. We’re here for the long game. Ride sharp, ride proud. Over and out.”
