All language subtitles for Tour De France Unchained S02e04 For Gino (Tour De France Unchained S02e04 For Gino) (ENGLISH)

The Bahrain Victorious team is extremely
sad to report that Gino Maeda has died.

He was 26 years old.

I don't really want to...

to say anything about it, because
I shiver at the merest thought of it.

For us riders, it's the worst thing
that could ever happen to us out there.

We know we take risks
because riding's dangerous.

But you... you really
have to take the odd

risk for... for the
chance to get a victory.

In the end, when you're actually in that
moment, it's only after that you think,

shit that was stupid
or shit that was close.

It's the kind of moment...

that you realise that you are...
you are nothing on this earth.

We're nothing.

Especially in the saddle.

All of us in the team, we all agreed that
now we have a reason, a real purpose,

to do something
great in the Tour.

I am Pell Bilbao and I
ride for Bahrain Victorious.

It was a tremendous
blow to everyone.

After the Tour de Suisse,
we had very little time and...

and in a few days, we had
to... to change our mindset.

We went through hard times after
what happened in... in Tour de Suisse.

I felt as if it brought us all closer
together, more determined than ever.

We all think about Gino
before the race, after the race.

We were really looking how to
become stronger, mentally especially.

Then if there is gonna be
some possibility to race for Gino.

I have no idea how they managed
to get the team back up and running.

But I'm sure that they...
they must think about it every

morning and that has to be
really tough psychologically.

For some riders, that
can be a driving force,

but for others, it
could be a real liability.

The Puy de Dome is an
historic legendary climb.

It is brutal.

We are almost halfway
through the Tour de France.

Teams without a stage win, they're going to
be desperate to try to take their chance.

3 2 1 5 Barry and Victorious
hasn't delivered a stage win this year.

They've said that they want to ride
for Gino, they want to honour him.

For that reason, a stage win will
matter here more than ever before.

Strategy.

We would like that we
are in the break, no?

Uh...with the climbers.

This is best-case scenario, but,
hey, your focus is more on Gino.

The pressure starts to build
up to win a stage of the Tour.

You realise that there are
not that many chances left.

We have this goal on
stage nine, to go in the break.

I would really like that Pei Yong
join, so we need to give him help.

I knew that it was the
kind of route that suited me.

I was the one with the
best chance out there.

We know it's going to
be really very difficult,

and that's why I've
assembled a strong team.

Pei Yong is very motivated.

Of course, there are other
teams fighting to get the stage win.

It's the return of
the Puy-de-Dôme.

And, in fact, none of the riders
in the peloton has ever climbed it.

And even team directors and
management don't really know it.

Well, I must be one of the last, cos
we haven't gone up it since, uh, 88.

I think that was it.

It's one of the Tour's
legendary stages, and I do hope

that Aja Desair Citroën,
well, can really get a result.

If you get dropped in the first
5Ks, it's not fucking exciting.

No, not true.

As a team leader, I'm under quite a
lot of responsibility, but from a personal

performance point of view,
so far, it's been pretty average.

We all expected
better results from Ben.

After this first challenging week, Ben,
uh, he fell behind, and that's no good.

It's a problem, a
matter of concern.

The situation now
is simple, boys.

It's gonna be a battle.

Every rider for himself, so
it's gonna be tough out there.

The top 20 in the general
classification will jostle for position.

I really want to compete in this stage and
climb back up the general classification.

I'm feeling, like,
semi-confident.

Um, telling myself, you
know, it'll turn, it'll turn, it'll turn.

Holding on to that hope
of coming back into the GC.

Ben and Felix communicate with each other
up to the last 5K, and then it's every man

for himself, and you just keep
pedalling like your life's at stake.

Hi, I'm Felix Gall, rider for
Asche de Serre Citroën team.

My task for this Tour de France
is to support Ben in the mountains.

I'm not feeling
too much pressure.

I don't have the
stress of a leader.

OK, guys, this is stage nine.

It's a good sign, so listen up.

One stage nine, last two years.

He knows the story.

Hey.

Signs of destiny.

You know I'm right, OK?

Now go give it your all.

Jonas Vengergaard not
very smiley this morning.

He's already really
focused on his race.

The start is important.

I need to focus and
help our climbers.

Today, I have to try
and be in the breakaway.

Everybody anticipates that this
mountain could blow this race to pieces.

Stage nine is mental at
the end, and for the final

breakaway, you've got to
put a climber into that group.

K.O.

Bilbao, an excellent climber,
is Bahrain's top choice.

14 riders there in
the group in the lead.

In this front group, Matty Morrison,
rider for Bahrain, victorious.

Well, we realised that this is the
day's breakaway, and I mean it.

It was not ideal.

We would prefer K.O.

to be in.

It's a mountaintop finish,
so it's not... It's not ideal.

It's not usually my thing.

I wasn't in a great position,
and I missed that opportunity.

So I just... So I stayed
right there in the peloton.

Matty, today it's difficult.

Everybody marks it.

Everybody has to make
the difference with strength.

Otherwise... Matty, he is
always bringing surprises for us.

Many times we try to guide him, and
somehow many times he's guiding us.

Big attack.

Morric flying his
way off the front.

I knew I was going
well physically.

When the adrenaline pops
in, your body starts to work

differently, and I was
determined to give it my best shot.

There's Nilsson Pounis in the
best climber jersey with Matty Morric.

Keep on going, Nilsson.

With Morric there and you
there, you are going to gain time.

Very well.

35 kilometres from glory.

Puig de Dom beckons.

Puig de Dom's tough.

Yeah, it's a wall.

It's true.

The Puig de Dom, over the last four
kilometres, has an average 12% gradient.

Imagine that.

Over a distance of 100
metres, you go up for 12 metres.

Equivalent to four storeys.

There are no bends, and you
are circling the Puig de Dom.

You are going to get there.

And that's really complex.

What's going to be really strange now is
going to go completely and utterly silent.

There was no thumps
on the side of the road.

Pure silence, and you could
really focus on your effort.

Allez, Maté.

Yeah, allez, Maté.

The general classification riders are
now 14 minutes behind the lead rider.

Just behind the yellow jersey group,
we can see Péel, Bilbao, with Bahrain

victorious, with Félix Gall
of As You Desire Citroën.

Félix, listen.

Wait for Ben, OK, Félix?

Félix, wait for Ben, yeah?

Ben O'Connor cracks.

Ben O'Connor.

Ben O'Connor is distanced.

Fuck it, Ben, I swear.

It's annoying.

It's so annoying
when he does that.

I started to drop there and lose contact,
and the pace started to really kick up.

It was hard to stay
always super positive.

Keep going, Ben.

Now that's it.

You can do it.

Go on.

Félix is going to get
ahead of Ben in the GC.

2,800 metres to the top.

And Maté Moric is there.

Under normal circumstances,
I would consider myself

having very little chance
against some of the climbers.

But because of what happened to Gino, Gino
was a climber, I felt a fire inside me.

A will, a determination to make
a huge effort in the last climb.

Let's not forget that Bahrain victorious
lost one of their own just three weeks

ago, and a victory for Maté
Moric would mean a lot to the team.

Moric looks around and realises
that another rider is coming.

Pay attention on Woods
coming from behind.

Good job, Woods.

It was always going to be a pure
climber winning it, not someone like me.

Maté Moric takes third place at
the summit of the Puig de Dome.

He tried everything, all in vain, and
still no victory for Bahrain victorious.

I said, what?

It's the same.

Second, third,
fourth, it's the same.

I nearly missed
on the stage win.

We came so agonisingly close.

You start to feel disappointed that
we didn't manage to win a stage.

But I was still proud
of my performance.

I would never have been able to
do this under normal circumstances.

Felix Galle and Péo Bilbao reach
the summit of the Puig de Dome.

Today was a really hard day.

I felt pretty bad for Ben.

Fuck Ben.

He wants to talk.

Go on, Ben.

Go on.

Come on, go.

Yeah, go.

What's the point?

Go on.

Go.

You're not finished yet.

Go on.

It's important.

The GC is finished.

I'm not trying.

I'm not doing it anymore.

Come on, Ben.

Concentrate.

Ben O'Connor loses eight
minutes and drops seven places

in the general classification,
holding 18th place.

Felix.

Well done, Felix.

Well done.

It's a great climb.

Yeah.

You're eighth now.

That's good.

Careful on the descent.

You must be so confused.

First they say weight,
then they say well done.

Oh, right.

Well done.

You, get changed.

Go get changed.

No, I'm not fucking
getting changed.

He's irritating.

Negative.

Negative, huh?

I'll just sign up.

He just needs to chill out.

Relax.

This is a bad sign.

I mean, it's not good.

Even when going all
out, he finds time to

grab the mic and go,
shit, fuck, shit, fuck.

I don't know why he does it.

No mic.

He should just be peddling.

I mean, he can scream out
loud, but not in the mic, you know?

It's useless.

He has a setback.

He questions everything.

He gets carried away and then,
well, it's ruled by his emotions.

He's going to say, why did you tell me
to keep climbing when it's not worth it?

Yeah, I know, but
that's how it is, shit.

Come on.

That's cycling.

You don't slack, believe me.

We have to make him
hear what we're saying.

You know?

I mean, we're in charge
and the sponsors pay.

The sponsors won't pay.

For a rider who gives
up like that, I'm telling you.

I just couldn't...

I just couldn't get there.

It wasn't anything like I should be
performing and how I performed in the past.

I'm not the best, but I
haven't been a nothing rider.

You know, sometimes I have
done some really great things.

After this difficult stage,
our ambitions for Ben

in the general classification
went out the window.

So, naturally, this is a time for us all
to reflect, the whole staff, so that we

can continue the tour
together, as a team.

Felix had a great climb
up the Puy-de-Dôme.

He has strong legs.

Wow, Felix.

We're now thinking that
the role of leader, well,

for the GC, from
tomorrow, we'll go to Felix.

We'll go to Felix.

Felix, your day
went really well.

You had a great day.

It's now about being in a
good position in the peloton.

You're now the leader of the team,
so it's not being in the back half of the

peloton because of
the break, if it splits.

That's where Ben
has always been good.

He's always in that front 10, 15
guys, and now you must do that.

I'm not sure if I'm good enough.

If you're the leader, that means that you
have your teammates working for you and

that you are the one, yeah, who
actually, you have to do a good job then.

You have to finish off the work.

OK.

Now focus, yeah?

OK, Felix?

OK.

You rest up, OK, Felix?

You're our new leader now.

Yeah?

OK.

We all agree that it's
not the result we wanted,

and it's really disappointing
for the whole team.

And we've got no choice now
but to change things around a bit.

And, of course, the person
right now who's in the

best position of placing
well in the GC is Felix.

So at least now you have
somebody who can at least...

..take that
responsibility a little bit.

And you can be like, OK,
Felix does that, it's fine.

Of course, he understands.

I'm not saying this
with a smile on my face.

But for Ben, in terms of
the GC, well, he's gone.

All right.

See you on the bus.

See you on the bus.

I lost a lot of time
on stage nine.

I very clearly knew I wasn't good
enough to win against the GC boys.

I understood
their point of view.

It was already done, you know?

You can't turn time back.

What do you think
about this week?

It was tough, wasn't it?

It was tough, wasn't it?

Your dad didn't
have anyone else.

We had goals.

I think we split
them up smartly.

But we didn't reach them.

But we still have to
work hard every day.

I'll see you later.

If they come tonight, I'll try.

Maybe they'll let me go.

Well done, little one.

Well done.

Happy.

Cuckoo.

Hiya.

Hello.

You there?

Hey.

Happy.

Hello, darling.

The last stage
didn't go as expected.

I was thinking about Gino
and couldn't give my best.

It was really hard to conquer my
emotions, to keep them under control.

So it was really hard for me.

I drew a picture of you.

I put it on the fridge.

After Gino's death, I said, I'm not sure
that I can compete in the Tour this year.

I had to go home.

Not to forget about it, but to
try to be more positive, let's say.

Spending time with my wife and
daughter at home helped me a lot.

It's so hard to forget
that moment, and you

close your eyes and say
you've got to continue.

But it's really hard.

Well, I think coming home
will help you recharge a bit.

I mean, with Martini,
you're so busy.

So where's Marti going then?

See?

Mummy's going to be just here.

Look at the rocks there.

It's true that since
Martini died, and since

Martina was born, I
see things differently.

Our family's forever.

And yes, your job
is very important.

But it's only a job.

Yeah, it is.

It's not the easiest job out there,
but in the end, an opportunity like this,

it's a once-in-a-lifetime thing.

I don't think you can
pass on a chance like this.

No, I guess you're right.

We needed to turn this situation
around completely, you know?

Turn the pain into motivation
somehow to do something so special.

And we hadn't won that stage
yet and dedicated it to Gina.

Stage 10 is a classic
breakaway kind of thing.

Aggressive from the off.

So now is a perfect chance for a strong
breakaway to try to take that stage with.

Half of the peloton
are really tired.

So from the start, we
would like to go, of course,

but it's not easy to go
in the fucking breakaway.

You saw how much
we spent and invested.

The plan for stage nine didn't work
out, but for stage 10, we really felt like,

we really focused on a similar
plan to what we had in stage nine.

Hopefully, this time, putting
a clamber in the breakaway.

OK, boys.

Get ready.

In the last stage, I missed the
opportunity to get in the breakaway.

So perhaps there's a way
to get in there in stage 10.

I want to hear the last one.

Well, today I'm going
to put the pressure on.

The goal is simple, yeah?

To go for the win.

And for that, you have
to be in the breakaway.

They're not going to
hand victory to us, guys.

We have to go out
there and take it.

It goes without saying,
this is going to hurt a lot.

It's going to be so painful.

But we've got what it takes to
have no regrets at the finish line.

We can win this stage today.

So let's do it.

Stage 10 is all about...

you know, trying to redeem myself,
pretty much, and going for the win.

For me personally, I will
try to ride with the GC riders.

I have to somehow get
into the top 10 GC spot.

Ben, he can go for stages
now, have a bit of free roll.

A lot of ice was ordered
in the paddocks today so

that everyone can stay
cool for as long as possible.

Today can be a breakaway.

You never know in the Tour,
but it's a very hard stage.

Narrow roads, twisted roads, but also
the temperatures that are really high.

Look at the temperature.

44 degrees at the
finish line in Issois.

So what's your trick for
coping in all this heat?

Those ice cubes worked a treat.

They feel great.

Going to be really
hot out there.

37 degrees today.

It'll be good to spice
things up a bit, won't it?

Yeah.

Five climbs are on
the schedule for today.

This is a very tough stage.

It'll be up and down all day.

There's not a single
metre of flat roads.

And they're off.

This stage has begun.

Today, for 80% of the
peloton, it's now or never.

An attack, an attack
from Wout van Aert.

And he's off.

On stage 10, the start
was incredibly hard.

Another attack.

We were furiously attacking
each other for more than two hours.

Seven riders are out front.

And among them is Kael Bilbao.

Setting up the breakaway took so long,
and everyone was completely on edge.

And this gave me the
opportunity to go for it.

It's the most important thing,
to try to reach the finish line,

and try to gain as
much as possible, right?

Yes, I think so.

Passing with... He
can't do anything.

He passes, and we try
to reach the finish line.

And Ben O'Connor
counter-attacks.

O'Connor has left
the chasing group.

He's getting closer on his own.

Oh, I thought it was curtains.

Pedalling furiously.

Oof.

Ben O'Connor counter-attacks.

Ben O'Connor keeps up the
pressure, tries to reach the front group.

O'Connor.

I always dreamed to be a leader,
and I know that's what I am at heart.

But...

that's not possible.

So what's the
next thing I can do?

Go for breakaways?

So I tried to go full gas.

Ben O'Connor's been struggling
since the beginning of the

tour, but now it seems like
he's found his legs again.

And Ben O'Connor is there, and he
has caught up with the front group.

I managed to get into the
breakaway, and I was just

thinking, that's my one
chance to win the stage.

The peloton is now 2 minutes
and 30 seconds from the front group.

Anything could happen.

The Austrian, Felix Gahl, well positioned
in the heart of the yellow jersey group.

Come on, Felix, stay focused.

Hold your position.

Stay with him, yeah?

Come on, guys, you've got this.

Peo Bilbao contributing to the group
effort and pulling for long stretches.

Peo, don't be too generous.

Everyone needs to do it.

Just think about the stage.

The peloton was
constantly threatening us.

It wasn't leaving
us much margin.

We had 90 seconds,
maybe 2 minutes.

Bilbao.

Bilbao, solid.

I'm telling you.

That guy's solid, you know?

Peo Bilbao, without doubt, driven
by the memory of Gino Maeda.

Almost at the top of
the final climb of the day.

It's the descent, and you really
have to have the balls to take it on.

You're the fastest
in this group.

Come on.

Come on, come on, come on.

Come on, come on, come on.

Does they go over the crest?

Look at the speed.

These riders know that
this is a massive opportunity.

They need to commit
and commit fully.

We decided to take over at
full speed, without restraint.

We were going to
give it everything.

We're taking the bull by the
horns, not being scared or

worried, and just feeling
like you're racing the bike.

We took the chance,
and we tried to win.

Don't stop now.

Don't stop now.

Six riders with a chance
at winning stage ten.

So then, chaps, what
do you reckon then?

Will you give it a shot?

If they slack off,
attack from the rear.

Attack from the
rear if they slack off.

Attack from the rear.

Ben O'Connor attacks!

Maxi, Australian,
tries to get clear.

Hurry.

When you're in the breakaway,
you're chasing the victory.

That rush that you have
is what sets you on fire.

Ben O'Connor has used the only
little bit of road that's to his advantage,

the uphill section,
immediately onto his wheel.

Pellow bill bow.

Here goes Zimmerman.

Fires down the right-hand side.

Oh, fuck.

And bill bow hunts him down.

Inside the last kilometre.

O'Connor is hunting them down.

Pellow bill bow
looks at Zimmerman.

Ben O'Connor isn't giving up.

Ben O'Connor closes the gap.

Ben O'Connor is closing the gap.

O'Connor should hit
them right now and go.

He's going for the finish line.

Go, Ben.

Go, go, go, Ben.

Bill bow opens up the sprint.

OK, go!

I had a special motivation.

When you think you don't have any
more strength, it gives you a final push.

Pellow bill bow wins
for Bahrain victorious.

Yeah!

Woo!

That's it!

Pellow wins!

One special day
in my life, for sure.

It's a hard job we are doing.

But these moments
repay everything.

I think my roar of triumph
travelled all the way home.

And you could hear it there.

Yes!

Yes!

Well done, mate.

For Gino, this one, yeah?

Yeah.

That brought so many
emotions out for us.

Not just because we actually
realised our ambition and win a

stage to honour Gino, but also
because it was Pellow who won.

Pellow and Gino were
really close to each other.

That put it more
behind us, you know?

Like, we were still angry that he was not
with us, but we realised that we need to

accept that fate and
carry on with our lives.

I hope he is proud
watching us from the sky.

Gino had a ton of talent.

I don't know if I can fully understand
what it's like for the team-mates.

Bilbao deserved that
win more than all of us.

You know, chapeau to him.

What a stage.

Pello Bilbao, you've just won
a stage in the Tour de France.

What a day.

What a day for you.

What a day for the team.

It was hard to prepare
the last two days.

Two weeks.

But, yeah, staying with the family at
home and staying with my kid, Martina,

yeah, she helped me a lot to just keep
calm, be positive and put all my positive

energy to try to do
something nice in the Tour.

I crossed the line and I just put out
all the anger I had in there inside and

remembering the reason,
the reason for this victory.

The special one.

For Gino.

Pain is temporary.

Giving up is forever.

You have to finish off the work.

Can Moric overtake?

Races are won or
lost by millimetres.

Do you think he's doping?

Jonas Wengergaard delivers a
breathtaking performance today.

This is huge.

He smashed the Tour.

He smashed everyone.

I find it hard to
believe there's doping.

Like in the nineties.

Cheaters exist.

People were completely wrong.
