Lost to Evenepoel last year.

So extraordinary power numbers then? I just don't get it really. This is a sport which has historically been riddled with doping scandals. Pogacar's performances place him as potentially the greatest ever cyclist. In an era where another 3 or 4 could potentially have claimed that mantle. And he...

Nothing out of the ordinary...just plain old power numbers that are routinely seen in the pro peloton?

I have that awful sinking feeling too.

Perhaps, but I gave up watching for about 20 years around the time of the Festina scandal so not altogether impossible I'll do it again.

If he beats VDP in San Remo and Roubaix I think that may be my tipping point to never watching cycling again. Preferably someone else entirely wins though.

Really? Off the top of my head I only recall Amstel Gold where he launched a long range attack and was ultimately pulled back.

I'd even take him not winning 3/10 times. Would at least provide some semblance of hope/interest.

I hate to say it but it's "just something" too often.

Not looking very impressive on this climb unfortunately.

What's the point of your comment though? "If he wasn't aero". If Pogacar wasn't able to push the watts he can, he wouldn't win as much as he does.

Exactly. Like when I've never heard a peep out of Pogacar fans when he does it.

You think it's logical to call someone who wins a GT and podiums the TDF not a GT rider?

This race is impossible to call. I wish.

All of a sudden the TT and RR are equivalent?
