    Teams & Riders The "MVP" Mathieu Van der Poel Road Discussion Thread

    As I understood his reasoning, he heard about the ramp being removed in the test event, but he didn't hear specifically that it would be removed during the event this time. Still his own fault, but I can kind of understand that confusion. I don't know what he discussed with the coach though, he...

    Richard Carapaz discussion thread

    Oh I certainly count him among the favourites, no question there, based on the history you mentioned. My point is that we can't just say that it will be impossible to beat the Slovenians outside of ambushing them because they are just stronger. Of course they are favourites but people talk about...

    Richard Carapaz discussion thread

    The Slovenians haven't raced against any other favourite for a while now so I really don't think we can say that they are better (or worse) than any other contender. Carapaz was clearly in his best form of the year so far in Suisse though, but we can't compare that to anyone who wasn't racing...

    Where does this say anything about Carapaz hunting stages or Hart just bring a Dom?

    Richard Carapaz discussion thread

    It's pointless to figure out if 2019 Roglic or 2018 Thomas was better when it's the 2021 version of both racing. I also don't believe that you can reliably say who is better based on power numbers, I think the only way is an actual, real life, on the road head-to-head, and we only have to wait a...

    MvdP can take the jersey on bonus seconds alone (Alaphillippe too), so they just need a small enough group that the big sprinters aren't there anymore, but not sure they can drop them. MvdP could win either way though I think.

    Wtf are they doing with the results? First there was a gap from Poels to the next group with Cortina missing, then Cortina was there and there was no gap, so Alaphillippe took the jersey and now Poels is given the time of the riders behind him, so he is at 4s too and Küng gets to keep the jersey?

    Well they didn't do it anyway but what I was trying to say is to use teammates to get to Joux Plane with an advantage and then charge up it themselves.
