That's completely different what?

What?

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

This is a very good race, despite the incessant whining from some people on here.

When was the last time Pogacar was caught after going solo?

Tour de France 2024, Stage 11, I think?

When was the last time Pogacar was caught after going solo?

21 September 1998.

 

[Samamba]

If Pog gets caught this is a very important day for cycling. Finally showing everyone that it is possible and they need to stop just giving up every time he's gone

 

[tobydawq]

Is the gap really growing again?

 

[Brullnux]

Pogacar hammering this, going absolutely all out

 

[titan31]

This is not coming back.

Also got to give kudos to Barre. Been an impressive ride by him

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Gap growing again

 

[Samamba]

That's completely different what?

Why would Skjelmose not pull? Nys is 50s back and you need to catch the solo rider first before you can start "playing".

 

[tobydawq]

Pickle juice time? Or did he just bomb the descent?

 

[Brullnux]

Is the gap really growing again?

It is but it's not totally over, Pog went really hard there. You'd think Remco can get a bit back pre Cauberg now

Pogi looking behind is not a good sign. Even if gap growing again.

 

[iBanesto]

Gap back up to 24 seconds now.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Race for 2nd = Amstel Silver Race

 

[Danskebjerge]

Healy attacking on the climbs only. Not the way to chase successfully.

 

[Brullnux]

Pickle juice time? Or did he just bomb the descent?

I think he absolutely bombed the climb, more than the descent

 

[Escarabajo]

Is Mauro Schmid riding for UAE?

 

[scribers]

Regardless of what happens here pogi has a big remco problem for LBL

 

[Tim Cahill]

18 seconds

Why would Skjelmose not pull? Nys is 50s back and you need to catch the solo rider first before you can start "playing".

Not because of Nys but because he will 'surely' be beaten by Remco. That was the law that was laid on this forum for Mads Pedersen during the cobbled classics, surely it should also be applicable here. Of course, them actually chasing Pog might change things.

If Pog didn't do P-R, he'd be long gone.

Every time he pulls they lose time.

The difference is that now there's a guy in front you need to catch. It's not even remotely similar.

 

[tobydawq]

At least the organisers are playing it fair with no motos in front of either at the moment.

I'm glad to see Remco is doing so well even if he doesn't catch Pog, it's still a race worth watching to the finish methinks.
