I agree on all fronts with this - Demi made a really bad selection and then committed too much energy to it. I really felt like Rooijakkers had two goals: 1/ get the overall win if possible 2/ win the stage. These goals are the same if Vollering creates a large enough gap to Kasia, and frankly...

This was an amazing watch, but the tactics were really sus to me and the long range attack from Demi didn't really do anything other than burn a lot of energy. I'm pretty sure she would've been capable of creating a similar gap if she nukes it at the bottom of AdH. Being separated only with...

I honestly think all of them will crack at some point.

Bora confirmed already

I don't think Hindley and Vlasov being support as in "dropping with Tiesj Benoot" qualifies as support. In the gravel stage, Roglic went without support for 120Ks.

I understand they went through the motions, except neither Vlasov or Hindley really felt like domestiques really. Bora felt like a disorganized mess to me. In the case of the crash I feel the team is less at fault, but I think they haven't managed the race too well - Aldag himself said they...

Have they gone all in on Roglic? Because if this is all in, no potential superstar should sign with them.

Imo the crashes missing from here are mostly his own fault but almost all of them are unpleasant but not race ending. The big ones were all situations where he got literally taken out except for Vuelta 2022, which was his fault although I still don't get what exactly happened.

Thank you. I have a burning hatred for this high level *** takes and armchair expertise that people tend to spit without thinking about what actually happens. Yes, Roglic is prone to crashes. He crashes himself a lot. A lot of them are fairly benign stuff. His last 3 TdF DNFs were super...

He is definitely injured enough to screw with his recovery. Even he continues he is likely having big time problems on Sunday.

There are two super strong teams and the sprinter teams all going for the top of the group. The 5K, while flawed, is specifically meant to address this problem. It doesn't, but this is a known issue, there is only so much space on the road and smaller riders and weaker teams are bound to be...

Rog managed to crash into a haybale towed by a moto when he was in the front of a group so... yeah

Great then please leave the rest of us be, you should do something more productive with your time, thx

Wait, all of them? Why?
