Of course i am saying that, isn't it obvious? But this is not what debate was about it was about superior recovery. And if you look at Rogličes schedule in terms of GTs and results in the last half a decade, considering other stage races, monument, all won on top of GTs and most season had 2 GTs in it, plus riding at least one more or less severely injured. If that doesn't account for superior recovery i don't know what does. Some of you forgot, on how dominant Rogla used to be through and through the season? I mean he still is, it's just that riders like Pogi and Jonas and partially Remco changes the rules of engagement. They got afraid of racing close with Rogla, mano-a-mano, and started initiating attacks tens of kilometres before the finish line. That didn't suit Rogla all that much, that much is true, but now he adapted to that and game on!
This is an interesting proposition BUT, we just had a similar debate in Rogličes thread and the overall sentiment is some people are not prepare to admit Rogla is better if he wins the Tour, regardless on how he does it, they are already hinting that their list of excuses is of colossal nature. Now in other threads, like the big 6 one, over there people in general are really hardliners, claiming on how basically there is only one divinity, maybe at best two, the rest is fat. So, first of all for something like that to work the other side will need to acknowledge Rogličes greatness first, after to admit Pogi, Jonas and Remco were beaten by superior rider if Rogla wins the Tour. Under such terms and condition maybe we can talk. Till then forget it, who are we kidding.
Now some of you might have time but others still have Giro to do, then to recover and to talk again, with legs.
