Why is there no animosity in the classics between Mathieu and Tadej and only respect?
I expect everything from Rabobank. They can even pay some random pack fill rider to crash out Pogacar for some good cash. I'm dead honest.

It's just that classics rank way lower then the Tour. Stakes are much lower in classics.

MVP seems to know where his lane is. Takes satisfaction in robbing pogi of msr and now P-R. Pogi doesn’t seem to get hung up on those losses so all good

Taking the article at face value, Pogi stood up to the bullies? Taking the heat for it, crazy what the world has become.

I have no idea whether Pogacar will be stronger than Vingegaard in the mountains, but it seems clear to me that Pogi is convinced he will be. I've never seen him so relaxed. He doesn't seem preoccupied with making up time in these early stages, although he has done so, and is just enjoying racing and winning. Today, he was cruising at the back, and looked fresh as a daisy at the end, unlike Vingegaard who looked like he'd had a serious work out. Yes, something might have happened and he could have lost 30 seconds, but I don't think he's thinking that would be an issue long term.

Of course, he could be wrong but it doesn't seem he is worried on any level.

Vingegaard is a nice dude, WvA as well actually but their executives are proper douchebags. So many stupid interviews in a relatively short recent timeframe. No need to comment or even read any of this. They make themselves look stupid and I will leave it at that.
We already saw how Pogacar and Vingegaard have a respectful relationship but I think Pogacar doesn't like Matteo. Probably due to this kind of dirty behaviour.

Last year, Matteo made clinical insinuations about Pogacar. It's understandable that he doesn't like him.

And he's also made hints about Pogacar on social media.

Before Flanders, Pogacar encouraged Van Aert after his defeat in E3. He has no problem with the Visma riders who haven't given him any reason to do so.
