It's a better strategy than the opposite.
It's impressive how fast he can be during finishes. It's also because other GC guys are more in red zone after climbing. Vingo's biggest task is still ahead: dropping Pogacar instead of holding his wheel.

Won't be allowed by his wife , they are planning work on the new bathroom in April and that takes priorityGood stage from Jonas once again proving his explosivity. I hope we get to see him in the Ardennes some day.
Gotta get that triple 2nd place there. Trine doesn't want Van Aert to have the most 2nd places on the team.Good stage from Jonas once again proving his explosivity. I hope we get to see him in the Ardennes some day.

He has 11 2nd places in the Tour. Someone knows the record?

The ITT was disappointing, really bad doing worse than Amirail or vauquelin, but i am quite happy with the fact he could sustain the attack of the best 2 min effort of all time, something would never happen on Dauphiné.I was expecting him lo lose 45 - 30 sec to Pogi on this course, so not a huge drama. A bad day - for sure, but not a disaster. The fact Matteo had a bad day too suggests there was something wrong somewhere within the team. Maybe nutrition, maybe something else. The mountain TT suits him much better so we'll have to see how he goes there. Usually, I would expect him to win a TT like this or to be a close second at worst.

Now, keeping safe today, Visma keeping the plan they' re doing everyday, and the real Tour starts in the Pyrenees.
The Tour will be decided by a couple of minutes in the mountains.
Do you really think the gap between the 2 is that big?
It's pretty amazing that Jonas can hang with him if you think about it.In all honesty i find it rather strange they feel comfortable sprinting against Pogi with Jonas at classics.
No, but the circumstances of the way race is and will be done, will do that, one way or another.Do you really think the gap between the 2 is that big?
I think Vingegaard will stay on Pogi's wheel in the Pyrenees and not attack before Ventoux unless he senses weakness.If the performance gap is small then 1'17'' could be really pain in the *** for Vingegaard as Pogacar on his wheel will spend less energy and his situation is tactically easier. If the gap is significant then this time difference likely won't be decisive (the probability that it's Vingegaard who is significantly better seems low though).

He should whisper in his ears the magical words: '' I'm gone! I'm dead! ''.If Pogi feels weak he will tell Vingo: Slow down, Jonas. We don't have to rush. Those guys (poor frenchmen in the breakaway) are no threat to our GC.
Pog to Vingo: I can be killed but I can never be beaten because I am king, not you, not Jorge but ME!If Pogi feels weak he will tell Vingo: Slow down, Jonas. We don't have to rush. Those guys (poor frenchmen in the breakaway) are no threat to our GC.
MVP must have told Pogi his grandpa's Puy de Dome story.
"Slow down Jonas. For the first time in my life I want to gift this stage to the breakaway. And no Yates, Kuss, Jorgenson, Van Aert and Niermann aren't allowed in it."If Pogi feels weak he will tell Vingo: Slow down, Jonas. We don't have to rush.

What he needs to do is OTL the green jersey competition in the MTT. So perhaps we will learn.I believe it's, alot, bigger and that we will never see what Pogacar is truly capable of if needed.
Then again I am just some random with internet connection and a, however informed, opinion and might very well be wrong.
