Teams & Riders Jonas Vingegaard thread: Love in Iberia

[KoopaCycling]

Lots of people talking nonsense. I did not see a weaker Jonas last year. coming in second and winning the vuelta.
All i see is him just staying at his level.

What Pogacar does is irrelevant to Jonas his performances.

Realistically, Vingegaards' performance in the Tour was weaker last year than in 2024. But that's more down to either *** up the preperation or other factors, that's not some severe state of decline.

I still think Vingegaard races too little, but i like what he said about Almeida.
He might grow on me yet.

What did he say?

Don't think it's accurate he races too little.
In a disrupted spring last year, he still had 62 days (with 2 GT's) . In the years when he tried Tour-Vuelta Froome had about 70 dyas without disruptions.
And I don't think people said he races "too little".

he gets his race days from Gt's & GC. that's different from having a mix. You can cut half those gc days away. As he just needs to stay upright in those. I understand what i wrote is a bit short-sighted, but there is also truth in it imo.
