NEXT year. Of course, he can win the race if he continues to develop in some years, but not in 2025Pelizarri certainly has more potential than that. The guy just needs to learn to go downhill.
Now is the time for a Bardiani Masterclass.
Peloton slowed down during the climb. It's not that uncommon to push a bit harder the first half and then slow down a bit to keep your numbers.If Pellizarri can jump to the front group and make up more than a minute in less than 2-3km I don't want to imagine how much time Pog can put into the rest if he really tries.
Pellizzari climbed it in 55'30"Gonna guess that 1st Grappa ascent was 5.5W/kg for the peloton
He stuck with Nairo and Alaphilippe down Sella tbf, left a lot of others behindPelizarri certainly has more potential than that. The guy just needs to learn to go downhill.
The performance of the younger guys generally improves a lot after they make the jump to WT team. And BORA looks pretty strong...NEXT year. Of course, he can win the race if he continues to develop in some years, but not in 2025
Not long for this world is what the record is.What is the climbing record of Monte Grappa?
5.5 w/kg for this monster climb is not that bad. With BJerg and Laengen there, I don't believe it.Gonna guess that 1st Grappa ascent was 5.5W/kg for the peloton
Timing for KOM on point
Pellizzari climbed it in 55'30"
I didn't claim it was bad.5.5 w/kg for this monster climb is not that bad. With BJerg and Laengen there, I don't believe it.
The misconception comes from last year's TotA. At that time Pellizzari was very scared to descend especially in wet conditions because he had crashed a few weeks earlier in training, taking down some of his teammates in the process.He stuck with Nairo and Alaphilippe down Sella tbf, left a lot of others behind
What? im not riding
Quintana is the full climb, they don't go all the way todayAmmattilaispyöräilijöiden nousutietoja (aika, km/h, VAM, W, W/kg etc.) - Sivu 16
Tähän ketjuun lisäilen kaikenlaista dataa liittyen mäkimiesten suorituksiin vuoristossa 2000-luvulla. Olen pystynyt haalimaan arkistoihini lähes kaikki 2000-luvun tärkeimmät pyöräilykilpailut ja mäkietapit, joten materiaali on pitkälti kasassa laskemistyötä varten.

Quintana climbed Monte Grappa in 55:03 s, 5.99 w/kg. Good ascent by pellizzari.
He lost a certain victory in the Tour of the Alps last year because even Torstein Træen descended better than himHe stuck with Nairo and Alaphilippe down Sella tbf, left a lot of others behind
5.7 is very good for Grappa. I can't believe Bjerg and Laengen can do 5.7 w/kg for almost an hour on this climbI didn't claim it was bad.
In fact they probably did closer to 5.7
