Cultivating through increasing my stats in America Chapter 329 - 206 Tour de France (3) Is He Really a Genius?3

"On the first day, in the first stage, leading by more than two hundred ters to clinch the championship, this is quite unusual, especially as Li Ang had stopped several tis along the way. Could he really be a genius?"

This was a true reflection of what most spectators felt in their hearts.

And the honors Li Ang received were not solely limited to becoming the champion of the first stage. While donning the yellow jersey that marked the overall leader, he also won the green jersey, symbolizing the sprint king, and the white jersey for the best rider under 25—three prestigious jerseys at once!

However, due to the rules of the race, he could only wear the yellow jersey, the color of the automobile magazine and the sun, hence also known as the "Sun Jersey."

The green and white jerseys would be subsequently worn by the second-placed riders.

"Li Ang is absolutely the dark horse of this edition of the Tour de France. On the first day, he was adorned with three jerseys; even if he coasts for the rest of the event, his achievents are maxed out!"

"Indeed, unless soone becos the final overall champion, I think it would be hard for anyone else to surpass him in terms of publicity."

In the minds of most regular Tour de France viewers, Li Ang had likely placed all his bets on this one stage and evidently reaped huge success.

The subsequent stages will most likely see a drop in performance due to the physical exertion from the first day.

This analysis made a lot of sense as energy distribution isn’t just about one stage but the entire Tour de France, which lasts over twenty days with many mountain stages and adverse weather conditions; naturally, one cannot simply sleep it off and fully recover all energy.

Many professionals who pursue the sprint king title adopt such tactics: exerting all their effort during flat stages to gather the maximum sprint points and starting to slack off during mountain stages.

Riders who are not good at climbing will silently form a large trailing group known as the "bus," maintaining a stable pace to climb and collect straggling racers along the way.

Experienced racers will lead the "bus" at a speed that won’t waste energy but also won’t risk falling behind the closing ti.

With this strategy, they save energy during mountain stages, and can shine again in the next flat stages.

In their eyes, Li Ang is most likely to adopt this tactic, which, in fact, is a permissible behavior within the rules.

Of course, there’s another type of racer—who wants both the green and the yellow jerseys, desiring to seize every possible honor.

Historically, only the cycling legend from Belgium, Eddy rckx, managed to do this due to his behavior of capturing every award, earning him the nickna "Cannibal" among fans; such a racing approach is very rare in the history of the Tour de France.

After the first day’s race, Li Ang had truly beco the hero of the Macs Team.

Today, Li Ang’s remarkable performance not only garnered a great deal of attention for himself but also placed Macs Team in the public eye.

His lead in the general classification almost moved Macs Team into the top ten.

Consider that being close to the top ten already indicates that so World Tour Racing Teams are trailing them in the team classification.

The team manager, Olsad, was almost ecstatic; after all, having a racer win a stage, albeit just the first one, is still a victory, deserving of a spot in the annals of the Tour de France!

And next to Li Ang’s na it would display his team, making it impossible for him not to be thrilled.

When he next encountered Richard Pich, the manager of Treasure Team, Olsad, who had been bending over for a long ti, finally straightened up.

"Your team really picked up a treasure this ti!"

Richard also looked at Olsad with a complex expression.

During the middle of the race, he had already researched Li Ang’s background and naturally understood that Li Ang’s capabilities had almost nothing to do with their team’s training. Rather than saying the team had cultivated Li Ang, it was more accurate to say that Li Ang had led the team to a higher platform.

anwhile, in a private hospital’s high-end single room, Loren-Hansen’s assistant was holding a tablet, preparing to update the recently awakened manager with the latest news.
