TDF 2020 Week 2 Data Doodles
I'd just like to once again state quite how sketchy and preliminary these are.
Lotto Soudal remain the team worst affected by withdrawals, although 3 teams are now short two riders. B&B, Decuninck- Quick Step, Ineos, Israel Start-Up Nation, Jumbo Visma, Movistar and Sunweb are the only teams that haven't lost anyone.
Stage 8 (CAZĂRES-SUR-GARONNE>LOUDENVIELLE, containing the first hors category climb of this years tour, or Nans Peters vs the mountain) remains the stage with the most withdrawals.
This year's number of withdrawals is about average (can I find theletour tweet that said that? No, of course I can't!).
For the individual teams, you can see from the shape of the curve how suddenly the race *happened* to Ag2R-La Mondiale.
What I was interested in was if the kind of withdrawals changed over time.
They haven't really.
I am legitimately surprised that there has been only one withdrawal due to missing a time cut (and that was John Degenkolb after stage 1 happened to him almost more than it happened to anyone else except Philippe Gilbert and Rafael Valls.
Somehow they've been up many, many hills and the Grand Colombier and the only person cut was on stage 1. It's incredible.
