Paris-Nice 2026, March 8-15

Winning a big race with a considerable margin doesn’t tell us anything.

That’s interesting.

We know Jonas is way better than the competition. Not really that intruging - you know what I mean.

Lol, you people are really desperate to never give Jonas any credit. Its both funny and sad.

7th place from last years Tour de France got 4th place in this race. It was a normal Paris Nice field.

Haters gotta hate!

Roglic?

I was only being half serious with the point being that in 2016 nobody knew that Thomas in retrospective would become quite a handy general classification contender.

Same goes for Martinez. Maybe he becomes a fantastic pure climber on his day with a nice kick to secure points for the polka dots jersey. Sounds entirely legit to me. Then it's not a shame to lose a sprint against Martinez after he had a great day and was able to hang on.

After all that's exactly what he did to Almeida at Romandie last year!

I will push the Taylor Swift lyric one step further... Lol..
Weird to me that there is a narrative that makes Roglic ( others) of little to no use unless he is capable of the podium. Might just be something I see, but from what I have known of bike racing, racers they lose way, way more than they win and there is still value in racing that doesn't result in a win.
