Thanks!
The difference in attitude between him and Yates is certainly noticeable.
Podium ready 😁
Was hoping he takes the next step in his development this Tour and he did. Not the best domestique today but I really think he was struggling a bit. He’s always better at the end of climbs and did some work. With Pogi in yellow they will get the team on the same page. Always good to have a 2nd rider close to your rivals in GC.

He needs to learn about hierarchy for sure. He can even get a white jersey but first he needs to work for Pogacar. Life is brutal
It was quite comical when Almeida was looking for him and calling also signaling him to come to the front. At that point I thought that attack will be called off.
Yup. I do think though that this is a pretty good scenario for Pog - Yates is now clearly a domestique, and while Ayuso does whats best for Ayuso, Almeida is a loyal dude who can just plow on for ages without blowing up. Perfect scenario now for UAE, I think they needed one of their guys to kinda give it up.
Is he sitting at the back of the group to hide from his teammates? What's next? Faking technical issues and ignoring the radio?
he looked fresh at finish.where is mou.lmao
I loved that Mickey Mouse s*it so much, it's one thing them doing it in Catalunya but to see them do it on the grandest stage is just fantastic stuff. Hirschi, Ulissi and Mcnulty will have a friend next season doing the shadow-realm schedule, can't wait to see him on a grainy, bootleg Tiz stream lighting things up for 3rd place and a good UCI points haul against Brambilla, Mark Donovan and Q36.5 Fausto in some 2.2 Italian classic nobody has ever heard of.
Probably be more of a contest than this Tour is anyway. He saved Primoz Roglic's entire race today with a really mediocre pull.

Oh yeah that pull! Pogi was like fucque this and took off on his own
Yup, if they really dug deep there. Roglic is out of the back and loses at least 1.30. Same thing if Landa doesnt close the gap, but on the other hand, Roglic really isn't on Pog's radar. Its only Vingegaard, and I think now, Remco to some extent.
Bubba. I think we should team up and conquer the forums! We can even add the @rhe guy to our destruction team!
Hate that this thread got hijacked by haters. Disgusting.
Back to the theme of the thread, good performance today. Shame that Almeida decided that his hate for Juan and his theatrics is what people are focusing on.
Juan as always, struggling a bit on the first days of the GT, but he saved it without losing a lot of time.
Matxin said that Yates told him that he was having a bad day and that he wanted to go first because he didn't have it today.

Just in case Pogacar has a flat he can react right away, by attacking.
Well, he knew what he signed up for. He chose the big bucks in a super team with Pogacar. If he wanted leadership, he could have gone to basically any other team. But this was his choice, and Pogacar is the undisputed leader, so he should be expected to do what he is paid for. Currently he is not better than Almeida, so there is no reason for him to weasel out of his duties. His choice, his money. So if people, fans, teammates don't like that, there is little you can do or say about it. He is a big talent, but he is not as big a talent as Pogacar, Evenepoel or Vingegaard. I don't think he should be treated as a chicken with the golden eggs. He could also have told the team it was too soon for him to ride the TDF and ask for leadership in the Vuelta, but he also didn't do that.
I don't care that much about Almeida, even less about Ayuso, but this guy Ayuso better not put his feets in Portugal, in the next months.
Ayuso is the biggest enemy of Portugal at the moment. The "jihad tuga" fans will go after him.

Nah I think people are overreacting. Yes there will be some discussions in the team, but it will be resolved by stage 14.
