Watts per Kilogram Explained - Lanterne Rouge
The ratio of a rider's watts produced per kilogram of bodyweight (w/kg) is the key metric which determines how fast they can ride uphill. We analyse and compare climbing performances primarily based on estimated w/kg, while also taking into account other factors such as altitude or spent kj/kg/h...

+In the charts, always excludes Roglic when he finishes with (or even ahead) of Remco on big watt days (see today and Lo Port)
+Made a big deal about Roglic “closing the gap” to Vingegaard which was like 5 meters for 5 seconds
+No mention of Vingegaard closing down a 15-second gap to Roglic on a later stage

I strongly disagree. It's not even secret.I feel like MF Naichaca secretly hates Roglic. My evidence:Watts per Kilogram Explained - Lanterne Rouge

The best part is always finding headwind when Evenepoel does a pull

Who knows. Doesn't matter. I think part of it is just random clickbait ***, but they had some crazy grudges with Van Aert (much more than me) and with Dumoulin

When i seen Gesink riding i already knew it's going to be special today. Congratulations Primož on winning. Was a beautiful and strong sprint.

I think he is a hater of both slovenians. It is strange because in 2021 he was considered almost a fanboy of Primoz because with his data he believed that Primoz was equally impressive as Pogacar or even more at that moment (totally fine for me that 😅).I feel like MF Naichaca secretly hates Roglic.

But suddenly he decided that Roglic was washed after some lesser performances in 2022 (due to all his health problems) and at the same time he started to love Vingegaard with his super Tour and then Remco in the second part of the season.
So I believe that is a combination of him being incapable of assuming mistakes concerning his "hot takes" and the "deep love" he feels for Vingegaard and Remco.

Another great day for Rogla. I think he's in fine shape 
Please stay on the bike!!!
Please stay on the bike!!!Its clear that he is their main man and Kuss and Jonas later on will be sacrificed in long range attacks to make Remco work for it and then Roglic will counter to gain time. Plus i think this is the first GT where they are absolutely without any pressure and have high morale. You can see it in their interviews. I don’t see any inkling of any infighting as well. Even if they don’t win, it will not affect their season at all.Another great day for Rogla. I think he's in fine shape

He is merely doing Broe's bidding. The hand that feeds you... and all that.

They also just way oversell the importance of their data, which is the primary motivation. Roglic didn't do big W/kg climbs in 2021, so that had to mean he was washed instead of maybe he was injured in some way or the other most of the season. It permeates through their entire climbing rankings.

The ITT and big mountains will tell the tale, but Roglic seems like the leader and in better form. I think he would be happy for Kuss to win, though. Even seeing the dynamics between the JV squad, Roglic and Kuss are always together and chatting and hugging, Vingegaard fades a bit into the background. Just an observation, probably colored by hope.

For every time that Remco complains, the organizers will find a second for Rogla. Game on. 😎
Did folks notice Roglic putting the red lanyard around his neck after the start of the interview? At the end of the lanyard is . . . A whistle. A regular old whistle.
Despite neutralizing the last uphill section of the climb for rider safety (and I don’t know how bad it was before they decided), these riders will ride all the way back down the slippery climb while the road is completely clogged with fans walking or on bikes. These are the elite, the best in the world, and to protect them while flying down through the crowds, they give them, yes, whistles!
Never realized this until I was at the Cambasque climb for this summer’s Tour stage finish, and saw what a crazy scene it is to have all pros zooming down through massive crowds of spectators, blowing their whistles coming around every corner. Crazy stuff!

Tomorrow is the rest day. El Patron will have a conversation with the organizers telling them to obey him or...there'll be consequences!

I first heard about the whistles a few years ago on one of Lance's podcasts when he went on one of his trademarked Contador rants... about Contador's pink whistle.
But sure, it's sketchy as hell (remember the Froome incident with the French policeman? i.e. "F*ck you!"). In that video I shared we can even hear Rog saying "maybe I'll walk".

Roglic famously rode down the finish of Lagos de Covadonga right as Kuss and his rivals were sprinting for second place.
