Peter's schedule according to PCS: https://www.procyclingstats.com/rider/peter-sagan No E3 and G-W but he should finally ride both Omloop and Strade Bianche for the first time since 2017.

I did not write anything about winning it or doing something there. The course is not for him but I believe he will start inTokio eventually.

I already can't wait. Many Slovaks will be in Hungary especially during first 2 stages. If Sagan wants to ride ORR I won't be surprised if he goes to the Tour just in the role of superdomestique for Ackermann and Buchmann. He has the green jersey record, he has won 12 Tour stages, he doesn't...

Congrats to Mads and all Danish posters. Enjoy this as much as Mads will :):beermug:

Yes, there are equal amount of points in every stage regardless of the type of stage. With less amount of pure sprint stages it is hard for a sprinter to win the jersey.

Re: I agree. If they combined new system for finish points (50-30-20, etc.) with old system for intermediate sprints (6-4-2, 2 times in a stage) he would most likely not win the green. With current system I do not see any rider except of Van Aert or MVdP who can contest for the green if Sagan...

There's a roundabout about 300m from the finish. Position will be crucial. I expect Sagan to be on the podium.

Chapeu to Alaphilippe, what a ride. I doubt he can hold it to Paris but I will certainly hope and cheer for him to make it.

I feel for you :D I have very similar experience when I visit away matches of our national football team or hockey WC games :) And when I place a bet on Sagan he never wins. Yesterday, I did not.

From Peter's facebook page: "A hard Flèche Wallonne is over. I was here to work for the squad and contribute to the effort to achieve the best result possible. Together with the team, we decided that the best for me would now be to take a few days off in order to better prepare myself for the...

Wow, insane.

Re: I don't know if he was the last but Peter Sagan never raced at U23 level.

Re: Well, Dvorscik likes to speculate too much about the things he has no clue about. He also said in this article that after the loss of weight Sagan may think about winning the tour in 2 or 3 years which is bulls***.

I agree that this scenario is very probable. In such case someone from DQS should win because they would have numbers in that group.

Peter Šťastný would be definitely very high on my list but I tend to rank individual sports achievements higher than team sports. Also back in the 80s hockey was popular and played on high level only in Canada, Soviet Union, Czechoslovakia, Sweden, USA and Finland started to rise. Even from...
