    He can definitely do it, but I believe if he does it the next year he will not even do one GT 😂.. he will be absolutely digusted by GTs

    2024, and 2025 were just previews. He was still acclimating to his new way of training. 2026 you will see the real Pogi :smilingimp:

    I agree that Vuelta is very important for his legacy, hopefully all the cards play out right soon enough for him to give it a go

    Now unless he goes for a GT double, only way to top 2024 and 2025 is for him to win PR or MSR on top of the other races. Quite a challenge

    Paul Seixas: Tour de France Winner 2031

    True and indeed the profile of these races seems to fit his strengths so he must be confident going into them

    Teams & Riders Best riders never to win a monument

    I don't think so in terms of raw potential. Look at 2025 MSR when Pogi attacked. When Ganna somehow managed to follow, I don't see many names who could have done that no matter their shape. Especially not Hirschi or Moscon.

    Teams & Riders Best riders never to win a monument

    An other one who I think should be on the list, for at least current riders : Filippo Ganna

    True Combloux was a true athletic demonstration. Hautacam for me was especially epic when he took off at the beginning of the climb, after that, I knew what was gonna happen

    But because all the biggest teams were on the same boat. There is a reason no winner has been declared in place of Armstrong.

    But why would all the other teams with big budgets, and all the UCI members fear Gianetti ? That one individual fear Gianetti, that might be one thing. But that all the most powerful members of cycling fear him, that is quite an assumption..

    Damn : "His legs were swollen and filled with fluid." https://www.eurosport.fr/cyclisme/tour-de-france/2025/tim-wellens-sur-le-genou-de-tadej-pogacar-lors-du-tour-il-avait-les-jambes-gonflees-et-remplies-de-liquide_sto23237608/story.shtml Hopefully in 2026 there will be no falls and he stays...

    Yea even Strande Bianche maybe he can skip it as well, he already won it 3x, he has nothing to prove there anymore, it is not a monument and it is usually just before MSR. He could use the time to train even better for MSR

    Nope, again wrong. It means each person grow and reach their ceiling at different ages. Like some people finish most of their growth at 15, others at 18, others at 19. Some grow 10cm a year for 3 years. Others are smaller than everyone until they are 16 and then suddenly grow 15cm for 2 years....
