Spoiler: Nibali after losing a Vuelta to 98 year old Horner and a positive Froome and afterwatching Froome "win" the 2011 Vuelta

~"Nibali is the luckiest rider of all time."

 

[Froome]

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

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.

 

[Froome]

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 give Jorgenson epsilon chance to top-5 the Tour.

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.

Very nice

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

Nice house, perfect location.

They recently bought it. It cost them 15 million DKK, which is a lot of money to spend on a house you're not even gonna be at for most of the year!

I thought he moved to Switzerland.

Jonas Vingegaard is one of the, if not the best clim

[Froome]

I thought he moved to Switzerland.

Maybe he has another house there. He also spends some time in Annecy. Maybe the team rent some house.

 

[RedheadDane]

I thought he moved to Switzerland.

They have like three houses.
Honestly, given the somewhat secluded location of the Danish house, I wouldn't be surprised if this is the house where they will spend the winter break.

I guess they have got bikes for that.

 

[RedheadDane]

I guess they have got bikes for that.

Considering Jonas' well-known introvertedness, I think that might be on purpose.
I also think they might have a car.

He might have paid less than 15 million, considering it seems to have been on the market for a while.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

How many houses does he actually own now?

 

[theyoungest]

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

Depends on what you call a "big deal". Sepp Kuss might have a chance of podiuming in the Tour (although apart from February he has been very underwhelming so far this season). Jorgenson might have a chance of making the top-10. He could be a good stage hunter though, if that's what they decide to go for without Vingegaard.

Genuinly wonder sorry if I missed it. Did they do a operation on his collaped lung, Pneumothorax before he left the hospital ? I assume so but i read something before they couldnt do it cause of the complications or whatever and someone said they already done it and then I saw him out of the spanish hospital ...Just wonder if they did operate the Pneumothorax and not just the collarbone?

The collarbone is fine for cyclist im more worried about the Pneumothorax.

"Jonas is a special guy. He may recover quickly" - 'Too early' to rule Vingegaard out of Tour de France says Visma DS

It's fair to say that Jonas Vingegaard's chances of making it a Tour de France hat-trick later this summer, don't look particularly good at the moment. Following a brutal crash at the Itzulia Basque C...

Don't rule him out yet.

Don't let CyclistAbi see that!
