With stunning visuals and gripping narratives, it captures the essence of the competition and the athletes' relentless determination.

Great show, as good as Formula 1: Drive to Survive. But they left this out...

🚴 A CLASS ACT Tour de France, Stage 18 of 21 Lourdes to Hautacam (143km)

In Spandelles, Pogacar went wide and fell. By the time he got back on, Vingegaard - who had been wearing the yellow jersey since Stage 11 - had about 200m of daylight. Then an incredible gentlemanly act happened: when he realized his rival had fallen, Vingegaard refused to pull away. Instead, the yellow jersey on the line, he *waited* for the bruised Pogacar. When he caught up, Pogacar reached for Vingegaard's hand and the two competitors bumped hands. Sportscaster Phil Liggett commented, "In my 50 years in Tour de France, I have not seen anything like this."

At 5km, Vingegaard and Pogacar caught up with stage leader Van Aert (green jersey). Up for grabs were not only the stage win and yellow jersey but also green and polka dot points.

At 4.5km, Pogacar dropped! His green jersey points safe, Van Aert eventually left his team captain Vingegaard alone in front to win the stage. Vingegaard consolidated his supremacy by extending his lead over Pogacar by 1 minute 4 seconds to 3:26.

Three years ago, at 18 years old, Vingegaard was unknown, shoveling ice at a fish plant. This day, he is the leader at Le Tour, at the top of the Pyrenees. He might as well be at the top of the world.

NOTE: You can watch the above story on Peacock at the 30:34 mark of Stage 18 (each stage's highlights are still there as of June 2023).

"Pedal Power" catapults you into the heart-thumping, tire-pounding world of the iconic Tour de France. Eight teams, one goal - this riveting documentary is an exhilarating ride. Strap in for a multi-dimensional exploration of passion, endurance, and the human spirit. It's a visceral symphony of sweat and gears that will leave you gasping for breath. With exquisite cinematography, an authentic voice, and an engaging narrative that will hook you from the start line, "Pedal Power" leaves other sports documentaries in its dust. A must-see that reminds us - the steepest climbs often lead to the most breathtaking views. "Pedal Power" - it's not just about the bike. It's a testament to the power of human will. Don't miss it!

Whoever directed this documentary, is genius!!!!

I will say a couple of things, even though I'm not a pro cyclist, but this will want to make you get involved with cycling!!!! BELIEVE!!!!

Point 2, like any other sport, you have to put in the hard work and push HARD! Even though I have my favourite cyclist, I have the utmost admiration for these Le Tour professionals going head to head in the cycling equivalent of Mike Tyson.

I'm just a recent bike rider inspired by this surge of energy documentary!

Once you watch this, you'd be hooked and thoroughly inspired to ride your bike!!

Great documentary by #netflix.

Netflix has done to the Tour de France what they did to Formula One racing. This show shows what it's like to be on the ground with some of the best bike racers in the world. Focussing on the best teams in the race, this series shows the rivalry, the challenges, and the victories achieved by both individuals and teams as they go through the gruelling stages of the race. Beautifully shot, this series shows just how epic and beautiful this race is, and that's saying a lot coming from someone who doesn't even own a road bike! (To be honest, I'm an avid mountain biker so it's certainly a related sport). I would 100% watch another season of this show.
