Shark week is coming up.

Vingegard was good today, but imagine if he didn't see his daughter at all for 3 weeks during le TDF , how much stronger he would be

 

[Peyroteo94]

Was he faking the whole Tour? This performance doesn't match from what he shown in the first two weeks. Even his TT in the Dauphiné where he was beaten by Bjerg.

Honestly, after his ride in Stage 5, maybe his plan was to conserve energy and take time in Stages 16/17? Seems like he knows he just has better stamina in the 3rd week.

No, he wasn't. Just like Pogacar wasn't faking on the last mountain stage before the TT in 2020. But I think he was being cautious on Saturday and Sunday, I feel he could have taken a couple of seconds there.

Recovery. Endurance. Third week. He can recovery better than everybody. Everybody was cooked after jumbo have done a hard tour almost everyday, and this was they're plan.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

bro ripped Pogacar to pieces and then some. Unreal performance

 

[Bushman]

Clinic reasons.

Enlighten us.

 

[Andy schleck]

He must do the TT of his life otherwise he is screwed

This post aged like wine.

 

[Gigs_98]

Heard they are making a movie about the creation of Vingegaard? I think it was called Uppenheimer or something like that.

He really did lol. Not only the time of his life but the best TT I ever witnessed.

There is no way Vingegaard wins without double leader tactics together with Roglic. He is worse at TTing and sprinting for bonus seconds.

Pogacar has a better team around him this year and if UAE doesnt have bad luck with covid like last year I see no realistic way for Vingegaard to win.

Hmm, not sure I agree with this.

Sorry, couldn't resist , given my predictions tend to work out like this too
Tour isn't over yet, I guess, Pogi is going to have to try something crazy.

If you read the Twitter thread, the source is his father. Ha

Vingo taking 2 seconds already in the first corner on Pogi was a good indicator for what to come. It looked like Vingo was on another level taking lines and corners throughout the stage. The way he attacked the downhill compared to Pogacar was also eye catching.

There were obviously a big difference in the genereal power output, but I'd like to know how much Vingo won on his technical qualities and staying on his TT bike. Even Yates did a better climb than Pogi.

Chapeau, Jonas!

 

[Netserk]

Like Froome, he should from now on aim for Tour-Vuelta.

Yates was faster by 1 second between T2 and T3. If you take into account the entire climb (T2 - finish), Yates was 31 seconds slower.

Strike while the iron is hot, I guess...

Froome is Firm on France

 

[QueenStagiaire]

I just watched part of a video of the Angliru 2020
ascent and the commentators were talking about how he had earned a spot behind Robert Gesink in the Jumbo train the day before and now had the important job of delivering the two most important domestiques, George Bennett and Sepp Kuss to the steepest ramps.

 

[Andy schleck]

Like Froome, he should from now on aim for Tour-Vuelta.

If he wins this tour, he needs to focus just in winning the third tour, and then if he wins the third tour, he needs to just focus on winning the fourth tour. He has the abilities and the opportunity to put his name with merckx, anquetil, indurain as riders in history with 5 tours.

He has time latter in his career, to win the giro ans vuelta. He is young.

 

[Poursuivant]

The numbers are pretty staggering
