Dont fool yourself Vingegaard never has been close to Pogacar thats just obvious for everyone just let it be. If your in doubt ask what jumbo says themself. He can beat him if he is not 100% thats kudos just chill.

I would be more worried about Evenpoel if I was Vingegaard. Vingegaard is far closer to Evenpoel than he is Pogacar just the reality off it..

dude its not hard this...Vingegaard is a great rider never said anything else hes a 2 time tdf winner ofc hes good!

Google it listen to what jumbo guys said themself why he won, they say cause pogacar beat himself duo to the team. He went crazy after Roglic which was their leader and burned way to many matches, vingegaard wasnt even their leader and Pog focus to begin with that beeing said Vingegaard deserves creds hes obviously beyond a doubt a GREAT RIDER never said anything else. Pog also rode like a JR and deserved to loose but it wasnt on pure strenght... ...you know this. If you dont like when i say it just listen to them say it jesus this isnt hard to figure out dude

On peak form they are not very close at all never has been but Vingegaard is per now the closest when Pogacar is not peak form he can win cause he is that great thats just the botton line facts wether or not you like it or not.

You say he is a great rider, but then bash him for beating Pogi on peak form. Bottom line facts show he has beaten him before on peak form.
 
It sounded like you reckoned it would be as easy for him as anyone else. So far he hasn't been at his very best in the classics that suit him, so expecting him to do well in one that doesn't, seems a tad optimistic to meet.
My original response, in a different thread, was to a post stating that Vingegaard probably cannot excel at monuments. I named MSR, LBL and Lombardia as winnable for him.
 
2022? Objectively last year Tadej was close until he died in the heat.
he was close cause he is tadej he rode with a broken wrist and when you say thats peak pogacar thats just not objective of far from reality im sorry my friend. Vingegaard beats carlos rodriques same amount this year like last year if not evne more this year the only outliner is pogacar isnt hurt.

When you say he is peak 2023 and expect me to take your serious thats just cmon now...be real atleast. A great rider always has been but time for a few vingegaard fans to sum it up what it only really is aswell.

1 win vs pog when he had broken wrist..
1 win when yeah you know that too...

I dont make it up it is what it is ...if he was somewhat close if not 2021. PN , this year whatever it might be entertaining but he has never been close to that and now also the numbers which tell us he did his best ride ever on stage 15 it just does again wether or not you liike it but guess what it wasnt close to pogacar still evne tho it was his best ride ever. I dont know what more to tell you if you still dont get it.

All the best take care :)
 
Here's a bit of a... well... "fun fact" would probably be the wrong term. Dramatic fact:

You know how Valgren has called him his "protege", and the two have several things in common?

Here's something else they have in common:

Near-fatal crashes while their respective wives were pregnant with child number 2. Though, in Valgren's case, his wife was much closer to giving birth.

Frida better not be hit by a car, and break her leg!

It wouldn't matter if she broke her leg. Pogačar would still be stronger than her.

Still did not answer my question about 2022 but whatever. I still strongly think Vingegaard could heat Pogi on peak form if he’s on peak form so agree to disagree.

i said see what jumbo themself said about 2022 and stop drawing your own narratives...this stuff isnt hard.

Well if you think that based on what we know thats magical thinking at best. Not based on any reliably facts at all nvm numbers which you also ignore. How convienient hehe. Nvm its fine dude doesnt matter.:sweatsmile: Think what you want.
 
I believe he is capable of arriving at the top of the Poggio with the strongest. After that, you need a bit of luck, of course. But he would be hard to catch if he managed to get away "op kousenvoeten" somewhere.

Until he decides to give it a try, if he ever does, I will continue to doubt he has much chance there. The Ardennes and Lombardia, maybe even RVV, should be something he targets, as long as he's on his current level, cause one day it might be too late.

Jonas says it's over. He did well for 2 1/2 weeks, but there's nothing left now, and he hopes to hang on to second place.
