Teams & Riders Jonas Vingegaard thread: Mountain Sprinter

I also think that getting the Vuelta out of the way this year would be good. How about mega peak for WC, we haven't really seen what the confident "new Jonas" can do in one days races. Would be funny if he won it, not sure all the blowhard skeleton shouting type guys could handle him having that jersey.

Hes not strong enough for that. Its as likely he wins WC as its for Bernal to win Wc if were beeing honest.

He s at best good enough to even get on the team as a helper but im not really sure of that either.

Send Kuss to the Tour as main GC guy and have Vingegaard focus fully on the Vuelta. A specifically prepared Vingegaard that isnt handcuffed by Kuss at the Vuelta would be great to see and ats some variety to his palmares.

Jorgenson. the big deal will be Jorgenson. wait and see

I think so too, but not much lost if he is only able to do the late season.

My arch-nemesis but always friendly and very polite. He never loses composure.

That's tongue in cheek, right?

 

[Froome]

I'm seriously about CyclistAbi.

I'm a fan but it's not like he's not a known quantity. He's not going to surprise anyone now that Jonas is out of the Tour picture and 3 weeks of the TdF is a new level of competition for him. Getting close to the podium is a reasonable target unless there is more chaos and other team leaders are out of the mix all together.
He will be a good rider but it's reasonable to give him another year or two.

Maybe Roglic winning the Tour 2020, is the only way of having the return of @CyclistAbi 😕

I thought they had said after TotBC that they were taking a break from the forum until the Tour?

 

[Netserk]

I give Jorgenson epsilon chance to top-5 the Tour.

CA's promised similar things before without keeping them, so who knows?

I know this is rather off-topicy, but... erm...

Spoiler: SECRET!

Roglic didn't win the 2020 Tour. Pogacar did.
Big-huge upset on the final ITT.

It's not too late. Froome won the 2011 Vuelta in 2019.

I don't think we should go there.
At least not here...

First guy in history, winning a GT in the hospital. That's the kind of champion Froome was.

Now I know why Chris keeps speaking about his #5 dream!

Maybe Vingegaard stayed in the hospital for a bit longer, because he hoped the same would happen to him.

You never know how suddendly he can win The Tour 2012! Or maybe the Tour 2019.....there's always some hope when i watch the news on TV everyday!

Vingegaard gave up after 12 days, because he knows that Pogacar is a lucky merchant 😂

I think he was singing something like this: On the 12th day of Kussmas, my Seppi gave to me, a Vuelta win and some celery (Oliver Naesen wouldn't like that).

I would, too at this point.

Well, the family definitely won't be short on space when they're in Denmark.

And I can't help but notice how there seems to be quite a distance to the nearest neighbours.

This is his actual home? That's a dream location if I've ever seen one.
