Italian Harry Potter.
Will he survive the fatal blow?

He will be one serving it.

 

[Red Rick]

Basically Remco can do nothing right it seems.

Because he keeps using the same bad strategy basically

 

[Boehmand]

Hang on, Almeida started this race?

Is he in the car with Vingegaard, on his way to Denmark to install a kitchen?

Svcrek working for Soudal

 

[AlpRaid]

Chill out man.

huh...?

 

[chickenlips]

Remco's a good lead out man for Pogi ...

Hes learning for when it doesn't work out at Bora, he can go to UAE and be his dom.

I saw Evenepoel pull up his sock earlier in the race.

Basically Remco can do nothing right it seems. If he waits and isn't aggressive he's playing into Pogacar's hands; it he attacks he's an idiot. he's probably not strong enough to beat Pogi anyway but should he not at least try? (I know according to the Pogi fans he shouldn't even bother participating in the same races, but still.)

It's great racing, but with his team mates, Remco should try to have only 1 pulling and save some to attack, so Pog has to respond. They should make this a much more tactical race and now they're racing it like they have the top favourite while realistically, they have the silver medal favourite. It is only the best tactics if Evenepoel is as good, or better than Pog, and that's a bit of an unproven scenario for the time being.

If you only have winner mentality when it suits you best, you don't really have a winner mentality, now do you?

Depends. For someone like Vingegaard, a winning mentality is focusing on winning. You can't win everything, so sacrificing lesser things in order to win big is the mentality of a winner.

Investing scarce resources to get 4th here is not winning.

Yeah, judging by some comments towards Vingegaard, I guess people would say that Armstrong didn't have a winning mentality.

Then why show up in the first place? He could have raced with two disc wheels and had a fun day out.

 

[Heston]

You're grasping at straws, trying to make something academic out of the fact that he just hasn't maintained his shape for this race.

 

[Netserk]

Well served by the belge.

 

[Didinho]

Pogi doesn’t like the Remco train. He wants solo. Come on Remco give us a race.

It’s just a mountain stage. Race over.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Louis Vervaeke what the *** are you doing here

 

[AlpRaid]

pog doesn't want to be surrounded by Belgians

 

[tobydawq]

Remco's saddle looks the right height.

Edit: I spoke too soon.
