  The climbing record (2022 by both Pogacar and Vingo) on Peyragudes is 19'50". I think Pogacar can go 1'20" faster.

  Streched profile actually looks like false flat with slight uphill. Until you start looking at the gradiens :)

  Agree it was dull but I grew to respect his immense strength. In 1993, 94 and 95 I was rooting for Rominger to topple him. Only 93 was a...

  I don't really buy this. What extra money is UAE bringing to professional cycling outside of Team UAE itself - by a Slovenian? Not like...

  In theory gaps in this TT should be moderate (short climb, fresh effort) but after yesterday it seems Pog has a big advantage (and can...

  Why does it need to be team members? We are talking about it here. Wouldn't rival teams be investigating? Pretty sure the rival team...

  Pre-UAE Pogacar was only 19 years old. Not sure you can use that as a benchmark.

  With the best TT ever seen in cycling Indurain didn't have to demolish his rivals on climbs - but he certainly could if he wanted to...

  It's basically a glorified uphill prologue. Gaps will be minimal and whilst every stage has a certain merit, I don't really see the...

  Yes a little anticlimactic after yesterday. But I think Pog can take easily another minute here. At an average 24km/h the climb itself...

  One minute gap for the last 10 starters? We could have a poll when he’s gonna catch him.

  It definitely looks like Pogi can distance the second guy by a minute at least (again I didn't expect such a gap before but today...
