Really hope Rog' hasn't been debilitated by whatever strange illness is ripping through his team.

Just in case, though, I placed new (small) bets to win overall GC on O'Connor, Mas, and Carapaz.

He posted a few photos from yesterday's stage in his stories section of Instagram about an hour ago (i.e. de facto meaning he's not in hospital with salmonella poisoning nor is he contorted in the bathroom in agony either). So I think you just threw away your (small) bets.

Yeah it's not like salmonella has an incubation time. The effects are pretty immediate. And very nasty.

Providing Bora actually did come down with salmonellosis and it's not just something social media ran with this just isn't true. Every info link about salmonella I've looked up states symptoms can appear anywhere from 6 hours to 6 days after exposure (or at least 6 hours to 3 days pending on the link), so it's not something where the effects are necessarily immediate.

I was just going by my own experience. Both a friend of mine and myself have had it on separate occasions. And it only took an hour or two before all kinds of unholy things started happening.

Lol, while your statement is true, it's been also true since his first win in 2014 till the last stage of this year's Tour, for a period of 10 years. So it's not like it is a surprising achievement.

Before this season I actually thought he'd reach 100 wins before Pogačar. But after his two crashes in Itzulia and the Tour, and especially after Pogi's dominant performances in both GTs, I don't believe that anymore. Although I still believe he'll go over 100 in number of pro wins.

Watch now Rogla win 7 stages of La Vuelta.

Primoz Roglic has now won more Grand Tours than Tadej Pogacar ;)

Congratz Primoz!!

Someone earlier here was talking about 'why' Bora bought Rog.

Tbh I think it's pretty self-evident: he scores.

Yeah it's not the Tour but when today goes as expected he'll have won the Dauphiné and the Vuelta this season. That's why they paid what they paid. It'll be Red Bull's first GT win and Bora's second. It's big for them.

It also totally cements his place in his team now. He's no longer "Rog who won stuff at Jumbo", he's now "Rog who wins stuff with Red Bull".

In any case his ITT start time today is 19:04.

Wondering why Bora would bring a guy to the Vuelta that had cracked vertebrae isn't necessarily a diss on Primoz. They surely got confirmation from him for the selection but it could've been a quick exit if he had the wrong kind of crash along the way.
He didn't and he won and silenced the equivocative speculators in the process. He's not done.

Nice backhanded complement.
He survived more physical abuse than any other GT contender and produced performances this GT that would've challenged any...any other GT winner. By the way; the only other GT winner this year is Tadej. The others didn't show and would rightfully congratulate him as the serious Winner. It should be Five, by the way.
F*ck Visma.
