Teams & Riders Jonas Vingegaard thread: Love in Iberia

[Berniece]

Jorgenson will ride Paris—Nice together with Vingegaard (Dauphiné too).

You never responded with an explanation.

 

[Netserk]

You never responded with an explanation.

You can call it intuition.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Latter.

I think they're all right just for training?

On a side note I like white shoes with white laces when they are brand new (Vingo's look to be), they look so crisp and clean, but not for long.

Unfortunately, it's getting popular in races ...

I call it random guessing

That Dauphine is absolutely primed for someone to do a Talansky

Nah. Contador didn't have a team

I was thinking more someone from UAE or Visma accidently winning it amongst a breakaway p*ssing contest after the teams try and outmanoeuvre each other. A memorable Marc Soler GC win.

Impossible from UAE. Visma too to be honest. Pogacar and Vingegaard are miles ahead any other GC rider. I don't know if you followed the sport in 2010 but I see a scenario like Contador vs Andy in Tourmalet. Even if they start looking to each other, when one of them attack, they get 30 seconds in a blink of an eye.

I do, though I also remember Alberto losing the Dauphine in similarly surprising fashion that year...

Like I said, Contador didn't have a team.
Pogacar will have:
Politt
Sivakov
Soler
Narvaez
Wellens
I don't remember Contador's team but I can assure you it was full of his buddies (Paulinho and Hernandez for sure)

Tbh 2010 wasn't down to the team but to Brajkovic being (surprisingly) strong enough to stay with Contador on AdH (if I remember correctly).

Oh, and Paulinho was in Brajkovic's team actually. Perhaps he was a spy..

Dude, no one is talking about 2010 Dauphiné. Talansky won in 2014

The post you answered to was literally talking about 2010. lol

2010 Tour, just mentioned Andy vs Contador battle... you should read the whole conversation

I did read the whole conversation, perhaps you don't follow eh? The whole conversation is about someone surprisingly winning Dauphiné.
You claimed that Contador lost Dauphiné 2014 because of the team (I can agree with that) and then @Tim Cahill gave you an example with Dauphiné 2010 as a race Contador lost "in a similar fashion" which you claimed to be because of the team. And that's what I disagreed on.

I don't know if you realise but the picture you responded to is Janez Brajkovic winning Dauphine.

Tim Cahill mentioned that Contador lost in 2010 and posted a picture of Brajkovič, so it was possible to get confused.

Peyroteo's comment was apparently about the 2014 edition.

You can move on as best friends now

So yeah, my bad. Of course not, Brajkovic won due to his insane TT and awful TT raced by Contador. Then he couldn't drop in Alpe d'Huez so Brajkovic won it based on power.

Only if he buys me Ginja next time I visit Portugal 😀 (assuming he is Portuguese) .

Yeah, for sure 😂
Someone will definitely beat the two best teams in the world with the two best one-week races specialist.

edit: Alright, maybe somebody from UAE or Visma.

 

[Krzysztof_O]

So Teddy vs Skeletor at the Tour looks to be the main battle this year (again). Flandres and WC should also deliver.

Haven't any better for Jonas 😆

"It became clear that Jonas lacked the explosiveness to respond to Pogačar" - Visma's head of performance on getting Vingegaard back to his top level

Jonas Vingegaard won the 2022 and 2023 Tour de France editions and as thr 2024 season began, he looked as strong as ever and a Tour de France battle was being highly anticipated. His miraculous return...

cyclinguptodate.com

"There was a big difference. We focused on making him stronger in terms of muscle mass last winter. Last year Jonas was lighter than ever in the Tour de France, but mainly because he had lost so much muscle mass after his injuries,"

 

[Peyroteo94]

I'm looking forward to see him in my home country. Route is not great for him but I still expect him to win the race in the final TT
