Paris-Nice 2023, March 5-12

[Elos Anjos]

Pogacar abhorres hot weather.

 

[Netserk]

On to the main road. He can still be caught.

 

[RedheadDane]

Pogacar abhorres hot weather.

Even I wouldn't consider 16 degrees to be hot.
And I hate the heat.

 

[Scarponi]

No team to protect 5th place to bring back
Like happened to Contador

 

[Tim Cahill]

If they keep it at 20s they can catch him working together but I don't think it's happening.

 

[Netserk]

Pogacar abhorres hot weather.

It's not exactly summer.

 

[Scarponi]

Even I wouldn't consider 16 degrees to be hot.
And I hate the heat.

As an Australian I consider 16 to be freezing

 

[Scarponi]

Love the French commitment to having the timer to Bardet all
Week on the climbs no
Matter how far back he is haha

 

[JosefK]

Jorgenson is only 22? Very strong ride, today.

 

[Ricco']

Bardet's bike looks heavy, ugly and sh*t for climbing. No wonder, he's using the aero model instead of the lightweight.

Scott used to have one of the prettiest road bikes for me, but I wouldn't buy this model at all.

 

[Taxus4a]

Hat off with Poggy, as usual.

The stage and especially Eze are made for him. But with another mentallity today just follow wheels.

We are lucky to have these riders now.

Anyway I still think Vingegard is just a little bit behind him now.. and not the big difference lot of people see.

 

[Salvarani]

Pog is flying now.

 

[Elos Anjos]

He should get a better bike, then he would be flying!

 

[RedheadDane]

So, Pogacar to win 3 jerseys, again.
However, this time it'll be yellow, white, and green.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Jorgenson is only 22? Very strong ride, today.

He climbs insanely well for someone who's 1m90 and not a top-tier time trialist.

 

[Ricco']

Jorgenson is only 22? Very strong ride, today.

No, he's 23 and will be 24 this summer.

 

[Didinho]

If he does this on the Poggio.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Pogacar is the new Roglic, being greedy and winning all stages in Paris-Nice at the expense of honest breakaway riders. Maybe he will get a Karma in the TDF like last year or Roglic the year before

 

[Strawberry_Jams]

 

[search]

So, Pogacar to win 3 jerseys

...if Gregaard finishes within the time cut. He went really deep early on today

 

[Netserk]

Massive difference.

Rogla "only" lost 23'' to Yates last year on the climb. Pogi takes roughly twice that on Gaudu.

 

[Valv.Piti]

Looks like Movistar struck gold with Jorgensen. Very interesting rider, steady progress each year.

 

[topcat]

4 chasers working well together losing time.

 

[Poursuivant]

Huge gap

 

[QueenStagiaire]

If he does this on the Poggio.

I love how any climb is apparently comparable to the Poggio
