julian alaphilippe reveals his biggest mistake against lance armstrong………

 

There is no record of Julian Alaphilippe publicly revealing a significant mistake involving Lance Armstrong. However, during the 2019 Tour de France, Alaphilippe employed the “supertuck” position—a technique where a rider sits on the top tube to reduce aerodynamic drag—during his Stage 3 victory. Lance Armstrong criticized this move, stating on NBCSN, “Not only did he supertuck, but he was looking back at the chasers while he was in the supertuck, which is next-level stuff.” Armstrong expressed concern that amateur cyclists might imitate this risky maneuver, potentially leading to accidents.

 

It’s worth noting that the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) banned the supertuck position in 2021 due to safety concerns. While Armstrong highlighted the dangers of the supertuck, there is no indication that Alaphilippe himself has acknowledged this as a mistake
