That's exactly how I have planned it. Since Remco and Lipo are also riding Lomabardy, it's a great place to show that you shouldn't count him out yet.

It is often a bit difficult to cheer on the biggest favorites and Visma was still a superior team under Roglic. Maybe that's why you didn't notice what a great character he is. Either way, you're forgiven. Great ride at the WC the other day considering the late arrival and the length of the...

Yesterday's stage only confirmed my suspicions that Roglic would have easily won this year's Vuelta.

Ullrich is usually mentioned in this context. If things had gone differently, he could have won the Tour de France ten times. Of course, he competed in an era when it was difficult to separate talent from suitability. Roglic also needs to be mentioned. It takes a lot of talent to be so...

Lipowitz has become very overrated quickly. Sure he was third on the Tour like Remco last year but I don't think it was very contested this year. All credit to Onley and Vaquelin, but I don't think that they are even top 10 gc-riders at the moment on even playing field. Plus out of form Roglic...

I'm happy he finally got to the finish. The start looked bad because he was clearly not in the best shape, but as the Tour progressed I learned to enjoy the situation as it is, just like Rogla himself. Maybe this was a farewell to the Tour, maybe not, very fitting that we don't know. However...

Hope he can fight back to form. Would be sad if this is his farewell to the Tour and he can't fight back after that farce in the Giro. Judging by Lipowitz's performance, third or even second place on the podium would have been there for the taking.

As everyone has noticed, Visma/Jonas has been riding very aggressively against Pogacar on the Tour. A strange tactic because as a result it seems that they have only smoked more matches themselves, lost bonus seconds and collapsed in the time trial. Still, they are very confident that they will...

This is very plausible but I don't get why Bora prefers Giro over being more competetive at the Tour. I could understand it if they didn't already get their second tier Grand Tour win last year. Now they only look like fools with their poor Tour squad .

I don't think he is allowed to know anything about any clinic related stuff in Visma. He probably hears some rumours and you can still sometimes catch some scepticism in his podcast. Like when he said recently that he can only say about Bardet that he was 100% clean (can't say that about any...

It is now pretty obvious that he burned too many matches in the first stages when Visma was keen to give bonus seconds to Pogacar. He'll probably recover for tomorrow but Visma needs to rethink their tactics.

I don't understand why anyone is offended by his comments. It is clear that after Giro he doesn't have the best possible form and even if he were in top form, challenging Vingegaard and Pogacar would hardly be possible. It would just look stupid if he was saying that he is beating everyone and...

Right now it seems that he doesn't have legs to challenge for the podium. If they don't expect the situation to improve as the Tour progresses, then it would be better to focus on chasing stages. I don't want to see him racing for pointlesd top10 in gc with bad form and horrible team. I'd much...

Losing and sprinting for nothing looks bad, especially with that horrible helmet on. It would be easy to fix though. If they changed that cheap grey to black, that color scheme would look much better.

The UCI could easily put an end to the talk of motordoping. All it would take is one random test broadcasted live after one of those suspicious stages. Just remove the fork, stick a camera inside the frame and everyone can see if there are any extra wires or batteries. I mean how hard can it be...
