Has Big Jorge taken off or given up?

 

[Boehmand]

Stellar ride by Johannessen BTW - Uno-X may not have to solely go for stages at the Tour.

 

[Netserk]

Jorgenson completely exploded.

 

[Blobs]

We are so lucky to watch Pog's greatness turn every race into a complete snooze fest.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Tour still over, but I would say slightly less over than yesterday

I would say 7/10 on the Tourover-o-metre

My one comment about Tadej making things boring.

If Tadej disappeared, it wouldn’t change anything. It would be Jonas blowing everyone out by an even larger margin than he’s losing to Pogi.

 

[Bolder]

I’m not sure super short cranks are helping Jonas. He looks like he’s a bit cramped
.

 

[Red Rick]

Lipowitz appears to be holding off the widely considered 3rd best GT rider in the world.

 

[Boehmand]

Lipowitz dropping massive time now

 

[KZD]

Armstrong's reign or this - cant remember a worse time to follow cycling! Call is greatness - I call it boring!

The Texan fraud only cared about the Tour. Just like a certain Danish rider nowadays.

Fortunately we have a rider like Pogačar to honour the sport in its fullest.

 

[Red Rick]

Jury read my comment on limited motor drafting and now they need to compensate

 

[Salvarani]

Remco has one tempo riding high mountains... slow.

Yep

If you compiled a list of all the races they have been 1 and 2 - it would be insane - and probably unparalleled in cycling history.

Yes, now it's boring all year long! ;-)

That's what I was saying quite a few times recently.
It's a matter of perception. Remove Pogacar and MVDP cruises to 10-12 monuments already.
Remove Pogacar and Vingegaard wins 5 Tours in a row. Easily.

But just to the super human bots. To the mortal ones he's gaining time.

Lipowitz probably the one that could challenge Almeida for 3rd. Remco has to take a massive step up to be on the podium again.

 

[Tim Cahill]

It's funny when they're helping some pro-conti Italian guy in a sleepy breakaway, but there shouldn't a camera moto so near in a chase like this

 

[dobrien]

Pretty apparent Tadej is not going as hard as he can; this could be even worse than it is, horrid as that sounds.

edit: seriously, see how relaxed he's looking? He is even further ahead of these guys than it appears. Yikes.

Or Vingegaard is just better than yesterday, you know

Is this a GT? Don’t be so salty

Yes, the problem is structural.

We had a couple of good years with The Great Acceleration, but now differences have become too great.

 

[snipeheem]

Goat is chilling lol

 

[Filippo_3467]

Hopefully at the Tour there's also the multi-camera option so that we can watch acutal bike racing behind for the podium and the Top 10. The domination would be not so bad if the cameras would just ignore the people who are riding alone up front and show hats happening behind in the fight between the riders.

 

[Schultz0620]

I don’t have anything bad to say about Jonas. He seems like a really kind human being. I just wish he would give himself more goals throughout the season. What I love so much about Pogacar is the way he gives himself new and different challenges from year to year.

Pogi looks relaxed
