"very very difficult", which means still within reach, sounds like he thinks he's at Remco's level now.

Thank you, my faith in this lying, delusional clown has been restored.“It would have been really interesting to have raced against them in my best years" - Chris Froome confident he could have challenged Pogacar & Vingegaard for Tour de France

Thank you, my faith in this lying, delusional clown has been restored.
For a minute there it almost seemed as if he was approaching being honest and candid about...well, something. Anything. Clearly that wasn't gonna last more than a few seconds. Wonder if they caught him when he was drunk for the original "I'm not gonna challenge for the Tour anymore" comments...
Not sure. Cycling has changed and they go quickly, but Froome was a destroyer. Of course he would have been fighteen with them. When I talkef with an IPT director they told me if he come back he doesnt fear Pogacar. Vingegard is a super rider for 3 weeks but who knows.Yeah, he was struggling in the 3rd week after a rather controlled racing. Vingegaard would literally destroy him
When he struggled at the third week? I think Vingegaard is better, but no very different.Yeah, he was struggling in the 3rd week after a rather controlled racing. Vingegaard would literally destroy him
He needs to be at Pereiro level and be luck, so for me is not imposible, but he should improve the level he had at 2022 Tour. He has been at one minute of Vingegaard at a long stage with a Broken wrist, far of his best shape, so who knows. But he needs races for that."very very difficult", which means still within reach, sounds like he thinks he's at Remco's level now.
For example 2015 when he lost 2 minutes to Quintana in the last two mountain stages.When he struggled at the third week? I think Vingegaard is better, but no very different.
Remco with a broken collarbone is still better than Froome"very very difficult", which means still within reach, sounds like he thinks he's at Remco's level now.
Because they were 17 and 19 year old part-timers at the time?“It would have been really interesting to have raced against them in my best years"
In 2013 he needed Porte to get him a gel or something, while losing 1 minute to Quintana and Purito on AdH. In the next mountain stage he lost 30 more seconds. And no, he didn't ride "conservatively" he gave it a go and he was weaker.When he struggled at the third week? I think Vingegaard is better, but no very different.
Except he’d need a 1+ hr breakaway win and hope the rest OTL.He needs to be at Pereiro level and be luck, so for me is not imposible, but he should improve the level he had at 2022 Tour.

Thomas won his Tour without breaking a sweat and looked dominate throughout the whole experience. He and Sky just rode to help get Froome on the podium. Thomas has always looked to have improved his 2018 shape. If Froome was still on Ineos, he wouldn’t even be the domestique for Thomas due to not riding any GT, maybe not even any race.Tour de France 2022 Stage 21 results
Jonas Vingegaard is the winner of Tour de France 2022, before Tadej PogaÄar and Geraint Thomas. Jasper Philipsen is the winner of the final stage.www.procyclingstats.com
Thomas was third of Tour de France 2 years ago, and was close to win Giro at Roglic last year. It wanst his best level ever, but of course maybe close. And best Froome ever id better than best Thomas ever, even when Thomas won le Tour. Thomas was a domestique for Froome. So of course is ridiculous to say for. sure he wanst at the level of this people. I think he would be better than Pogacar at hard mountain stages, with long climbs ( always with hot weather for Froome, of course) and similar to Vingegard. But Vingegaard level for le Tour is one of the best of history, so It wouldbt be easy.
Oscar worthy. Fake breathing and his Garmin says 99bpm HR. Sad really.
It is what you think....Except he’d need a 1+ hr breakaway win and hope the rest OTL.

Wow. No wonder mou is not here posting anymore. Froome knows that Pogacar is not a threat to him in 3 weeks raceWhen I talkef with an IPT director they told me if he come back he doesnt fear Pogacar.
Pogacar is the best rider I ever been ride. it woudl be more favourite than Froome. But Froome is more a kind of rider as Vingegard. If the race has 2 long stages with long climbs it would have had his options. But in other kind of stages Pogacar is better, it is a monster. But Froome at his age and with thar crash is not going to come back at his best level. Or it is almost impossible. But he could reach an step worse and figh for something nice.Wow. No wonder mou is not here posting anymore. Froome knows that Pogacar is not a threat to him in 3 weeks race
He has improved. He’s not OTL or finishing dead last as often anymore.But if you consider Thomas has improved...Froome could improve as well, couldnt he?

Froome wouldn't had a chance against Pogacar and even less against Vingegaard.Not sure. Cycling has changed and they go quickly, but Froome was a destroyer. Of course he would have been fighteen with them. When I talkef with an IPT director they told me if he come back he doesnt fear Pogacar. Vingegard is a super rider for 3 weeks but who knows.
We know you wouldn't. I thought you did hang up your wheels.Froome wouldn't had a chance against Pogacar and even less against Vingegaard.
Damn bilharzia, but i'm already recovered.We know you wouldn't. I thought you did hang up your wheels.
It‘s like training with the hand brake on, they say. Once the hand brake comes off, you‘re much better than before.Damn bilharzia, but i'm already recovered.
