People forgetting Landa also injured in same race as Remco and Vige...and badly injured
yeah though he didn't have any need to attack and won quite easily in the end. I think he looked within himself, this is just how he rides
Jorgenson just didnt have the acceleration to match Roglic, but he looked maybe even slightly stronger I would say from the over-head images of that sprint
Roglic beats Lazkano by 2 secs and Gee by 8 secs on a hors categorie climb on a monster stage. Is this real life?

I agree, I don't think it's right to compare him to Pogacar, he's not a big solo or 20 minute attack kind of guy. He's ahead in GC, he won the stage, and he has the race in the bag.

An exciting finale. We didn't know who'd win till the finish line. Rogla didn't look as strong as yesterday but it was enough to win.

No, that‘s a parallel world. In the real world he only took two seconds on Gee.
Tbf though, deciding to come to the finish line with Pogacar would be a good way to not win the Tour. You'd kind of like to see someway for Roglic to win at the Tour and this style of racing won't do that.

Routine stomp. Just like Burgos or Tirreno last year.
Some people aren't satisfied though unless there's a Hollywood style epic attack for a 20 second gain.
Yeah that's it. I don't expect anything other then a re-run of today tomorrow from Roglic and Bora. Why should they do something other or try to attack earlier in the climb. He has a big lead, wins in a sprint if it comes to it. Also his shoulder is still hurt. No reason to push it here.
tbf no idea what it means for the Tour. Roglic is clearly the best here but the competition is pretty meh in form these days. Rodriguez and Remco not up for it. Great rides by Lazkano, Jorgensen and Gee.

Honestly, Landa should be co-captain with Evenepoel and have no domestique duties. Evenepoel just can't be trusted for a Tour GC and will most probably be dropped like a stone in the high mountains again.

If it would be routine he would close the gaps himself. Anyway, to the exciting part. We must check when sprint started to see who won a bet

Ya, it seemed like most had more than enough trouble following Vlasovs pace rather than thinking of attacking. It would have been interesting to see what had happened if there had been a few more tempo changes in the front group. Vlasovs steady pace probably helped some riders more than it hurt. But for Bora it helped because it prevented other from attacking and they didn't really need to split the group any further.

I don't think Roglic has any way of beating Pogacar without it being Pogacar who drops or bonks. But I also think Roglic has a claim to outsprinting Pogacar
Jorgenson went after Loskano and maybe spent some matches there
