Rod Ellingworth says Geraint Thomas is 'on fire' at the Tour de France... and not just because he forgot to take off that thermal gilet cycling
win, has fired a warning shot to the Welshman's GC rivals by making the bold claim that Thomas is"on fire" and"the best I've ever seen him".at the end of the Tour de France's opening weekend in Denmark. Thomas sits 12th on GC, 18 seconds behind Tadej Pogačar after losing time in the opening TT having forgotten to remove his thermal gilet. He also said he had been"cornering like my wife — she hasn't ridden a bike in 12 years".
"To be honest with you, I think he's as good as I've ever seen him. It's really exciting to see," Ellingworth said."G has done really well to bring himself up to this level. He has worked really hard, his weight is bang on. He's really on fire. Ellingworth insisted Pogačar remains favourite, but as seen in the final of yesterday's stage –"everyone can crash".
"Everyone was saying take it easy," he said. "Don't lose it all today, but to be honest I wasn't even bothered about GC today I just wanted to do a good ride. It just got in my head and I rode so slow around these corners. It was so bad. The Tour de France returns tomorrow after today's rest day with a lumpy stage finishing in Calais, before the much-anticipated Paris-Roubaix stage on Wednesday.
