Teams & Riders Jonas Vingegaard thread: Love in Iberia

[Froome]

Can't wait for Ujtedbreckes tantrum in Tirreno when Vingegard dares to attack for the win instead of defending for Cian's 7th place

They will be together in Gran camino, we don't need to wait that much 😂

The route of PN next year is very easy, it's not interesting to test the legs and comparing with the other favourites, so i hope remco and roglic choose TA to face Vingegaard.

It’s a bit similar to last year’s Catalunya in the way that I can imagine Roglic en Evenepoel being a bit better than the rest and that the race will be decided by seconds

Indeed, I forgot. So basically Roglic has to decide if he wants to race Vingegaard or Remco.

He could opt for the Tour de Taiwan.

I think the route of last year's catalunya had some good final climbs like the mirador del portell (8.8 km at 9.9%) and the finish in vallter is decent, remco and roglic tested well themselves and were at a similar level.

This year’s paris nice route is very easy in terms of climbing. The two only mountain finishes is is auron (7.3 km at 7.2%) and mont broully (3 km at 7.7%), probably the TTT will decide the race.

probably the TTT will decide the race.

As a Remco fan, I don't mind that

In that case, it would be even better if it was a ITT instead of a TTT.

Jonas Vingegaard has just won one of Denmark's finest sports awards. He was not present himself, but sent a video greeting from France, where he is currently staying. Unfortunately, it is in Danish. But right after, Tadej Pogačar also sends a video greeting to Jonas in English, where he congratulates Jonas with the award and looks forward to meeting him again at the Tour de France 2024. Great that he sent that greeting....shows once again that they have great respect for each other. Tadej Pogačar's video greeting is at the end of the video clip.

Lol, apparently handball > Tour de France win in Denmark...

 

[The Clogger]

To be fair, it's their 3rd world championship in a row. Vingegaard should have won though.

Not again.

Pog was a gentleman.

Pog was a gentleman.

He just wanted to show off his gazzelle-like physique

This may well be Roglic's and Pogacar's faces when, after a competitive race, Vingo annihilates them in the final TT producing ridiculous w/kg.

I'm not sure he'll have time to ride the Tour this year. I believe he's getting crowned in the coming days, or something like that.

Gran camino will be more interesting this year.
Visma with Vingegaard and Ineos, movistar, EF, FDJ will also be there.

You must have confused him with the former crown prince, now king, Frederik of Denmark.

Understandable mistake.

I've just got used to seeing Jonas bring the crowds in for a celebration, but I guess it was someone else this time around.

Shouldn't the thread title reflect the results of the poll?

I think it did have that title for a short while during the poll. I don't intend to change it anytime soon, but his first races of the season might inspire me to make a new one.

It's not closed yet.

How so? He hasn't been nor will be crowned.

I guess the "or something like that" part of the post covers that...
