Imagine if Rogla or Pogi won't win the Tour. Great Vuelta edition ahead.
P.S. Almeida or Remco likely to kiss their sister.

All this craziness today just because a guy wanted to do interval training for Vuelta.

I guess this should be settled then. Rogla found a way on how to beat Pogi at the Tour. I knew he would. From his perspective this was done yestrday.
Looking back. On some of the previous GTs. Rogla always gave Pogi a fighting chance. When Pogi was down. On this Tour edition Pogi already acknowledged. That Jonas is the man to beat. Still. Pogi was rather greedy. Decided to give no chance to Rogla at all.
That caused him the stage and maybe this Tour edition.
Vuelta should indeed be interesting race this year. And i guess if Jonas wins this Tour edition. Next year to see if he will still be able to win in such fashion or if it was a flux.

With less of a joke from me; I always thought he looked like he had some Romani blood in him. Or maybe just vallon. Do you have any pics of his parents?

What co-leader in Ben O'Connor's team had the level of a Jonas Vingegaard to motivate one's self to work for after being injured?
Yep. ClickWith less of a joke from me; I always thought he looked like he had some Romani blood in him. Or maybe just vallon. Do you have any pics of his parents?
I think TJV is not gonna underestimate Pog given 2020 and it's gonna keep Roglic as long as he can help meaning Hautacam stage. If he feels good he might even go for breakaway, Peyragudes stage looks quite good. Vuelta is not a given this year, Pog goes this year and honestly Roglic looks off since Turini. Can he go back to peak form right on time? Who knows but TJV knows they have an unique situation and they will give it all to take the Tour. While the Vuelta record is great to have, Vuelta looks stacked this year.

What situation with Pinot are you referring to? Just the fact that he didn't do much in 2020 with his injured back?
Roglič has injured his back too. He made the ultimate sacrifice on this race. Jonas thanked him for it. Hope he returns the favor in the future.

Self struggled or struggled for his team. But not only struggled. To made a difference. It's still much different. If Jonas takes it Danes will forever need to thank Rogla for it. There is just no way around that. Some mini statue somewhere on top of some hill should do fine.

Well, Pinot didn't really have a teammate capable of winning the Tour in 2020.

Of course it‘s also about future, about money, and so on: if Jonas should win this TdF, it‘s absolutely great for Primoz, all their current riders, etc.
The sponsors would be satisfied, and it would be a reward for all the work and passion and money they put in over the last years. But it‘s far from over. Long way to go to Paris…
If he would attack at the Télégraphe then he likely would. Anyway. Forget about the statue. Returning the favor in the future will do. Now best to focus back on Jonas. He still has a Tour to win. With JV and considering Rogličes job was done. Good luck with that.

That's what I'm afraid of and I hope Roglic will soon abandon. He said for Slovenian media today that he's not feeling better.

He's too much of a class act so he'll do his duty with a smile on his face but others in his situation would be forgiven for a DNF considering their own career & season is at stake. Plus there's the fact Vingegaard is a terminator & the strongest rider in the race. It's not even close right now ergo Roglic isn't needed. Kruijswijk & Kuss are literally stronger than Roglic in this race so after his 'heroics' yesterday to break Pogacar, his utility now doesn't extend much beyond appearing in the team's #samenwinnen social media propaganda.
Honestly this is the first time I have the feeling Jumbo are mismanaging Roglic, especially right now. This happens to other riders in other teams ( i.e. Pinot for example was forced to finish the 2020 TdF by FDJ in what was a ridiculous self-defeating stupid decision), but it's the first time I feel something similar is happening with Roglic & Jumbo, i.e. the team putting its own interests above him.
