Jonas Vingegaard: Something is Rotten

[magliaroz]

Clearly, his mother in law gave him too much salad during his holiday betweet Tour and Vuelta and all the s**t slowed him down.

No fish to slap with yesterday

I'll post the riskiest of takes which no one would have dared imagine (or post) one month ago: Vingegaard is going to get dropped on the Tourmalet stage on Friday.

He just seems unwell or something & getting worse. Even today he wasn't particularly switched on either during the stage or at the end of the climb. He gives serious "I'm going to drop hard" vibes, like he's totally running on empty.

Just my impression.

Definitely some system failure that JV cyberneticians can't deal with. Skeletor doesn't even respond to Grischa's password!

Someone must have switched his maintenance oil with the devil's blood (beer).

I don’t know where this statement came from but in Slovenian media he was quoted as saying: “Let’s wait till Friday” when talking about his lack of form. (wink)

 

[Aimar16]

He was sent to the Vuelta to look human after the summer freakshow and help Rog win imo

 

[Le Doper]

The Vuelta now turning into a monumental joke with the commentators again somehow astonished by what is happening!

And there it is, he must have cleaned out his colon before today's stage!!

 

[SantiBotero]

To be honest, his Vuelta perfomance is proving the Clinic right. There is no freak dominance like in Basque Country or Tour de France. He is more or less at the same level or slight above than Mas, Ayuso, etc., which is more or less aligned to what should be expected. The same wattage level here in Vuelta and Vingo would be 10 minutes ahead.

Most convicted doper since...?

This aged well!

How does he not have a single bad day in 3 weeks? He didn't have one in the past 2 tdf and looks like he is not going to have one in this Vuelta too. We are reaching Padun levels of insanity.

 

[meat puppet]

Guess he just unloaded after the tour and took the gamble that he has the base to build on again. The first 1,5wks of the Vuelta is basically like a hard block of training to have him micro peaking on the latter half. Effing insane if he pulls it off.

And then Kuss, too...

 

[Mayomaniac]

Jonas is so obiously dirty, you might as well call him Svingegaard...

 

[magliaroz]

It's his daughter's birthday today! How dare you question power of love??

 

[fbjim]

Look Jonas simply was not in form for this race, that's why the greatest time trialist of all time has to be content with simply winning the Tourmalet stage

jumbo visma seems to have mastered the "no bad days" technique with all of their riders, not just this one

 

[Cookster15]

Still excuses being made for this team's ridiculousness- only beat Landa and a bunch of kids? Well. lets see the excuses made for this team when they destroy everyone on stages 17 and 18.

Now all I have to look forward to is if Roglic can somehow stop one of his teammates from winning this Vuelta. Vingo with the TdF in his legs and Kuss with how many race days in his legs now?

 

[proffate]

Kuss with how many race days in his legs now?

69, which is almost exactly average for the top 100 riders

 

[FroomeWagon]

Plus he took "days off" in the Giro and Tour. It's not like he has been the GC leader for 3 GT's.

What day did he take off? He never intentionally lost time and finished ahead of many who were targeting GC

In the Giro, the first two weeks were days off for everybody.

that's not true, the evil race organizers made them ride in the rain
