Porte beats Wilco Kelderman and Ilnur Zakarin to win stage 12 of the 2018 Tour de France … in my playthrough of Pro Cycling Manager 2018. And in Pro Cycling Manager 2018 Porte still has a chance of winning the Tour. Rather it’s a scene from a videogame, Pro Cycling Manager 2018 to be exact.
Of course, this isn’t real life - in the real 2018 Tour de France, Porte crashed out on stage 9. He’s won stage 12 of the 2018 Tour de France, jumping from seventh to fourth in the process. And then he’s leaving them behind as well, hitting the front of the race for the first time.īy the time he crosses the finish line, arms aloft, Porte has put nearly a minute into Froome.
He surges on, eventually catching up to the remnants of the day’s breakaway. Porte seizes the opportunity, attacking hard and opening a gap of his own. He finds the strength to fight his way back to those that left him behind and as he does, there’s a brief lull in proceedings. He’s already more than three minutes behind the overall lead of Froome, a lead that looks set to grow even further.īut then, against the odds, Porte rallies. It’s not looking good for the Australian. Chris Froome, Alejandro Valverde, and Romain Bardet - they’re all there, riding away from Porte, just 5km from the summit of Alpe d’Huez. Richie Porte drops the wheel and his rivals start to open a gap.
