Pogacar just posted on Twitter that he will only need 1_knee to win, plans to have surgery during the stage, will get a gap big enough for doctor to do a complete replacement!! I didn't want him to win because of that annoying hair through the helmet obsession.. But now I am all in..I sent an email to the bee keeper who did the Juan Ayuso handy work.. Hopefully we can get decent pheromone samples from Visma hotel linen and towels!! Wasps are extra. but with go fund me page the bees will just be a bonus!! Go Pog..
 
Has Mou faked the photo? 💩

The photo may be upside down.

But he did hit the curb.

With that knee, it's impossible for him to perform well.
If that's true, I wouldn't be surprised if he retires. It'll be impossible for him to endure the pain while riding like that.

You can partially see the right knee in the video. It’s fine. Can’t stand that mou guy. Just spouting nonsense.
 
Ridiculous amount of overreaction to what was a racing incident. Pogacar was unlucky with the timing of the move but Johannessen had no need to apologise publicly and wouldn’t have done so had it not been one of the top riders.

*** happens and perhaps it will affect Pogacar tomorrow and open up the opportunity for Vingegaard to take advantage. But I expect that he’ll be ok.

Appalling amount of underreaction to a racing incident that shouldn't have happened.

It will affect Pogacar tomorrow for sure and if anyone sees this as an opportunity (withholding more comments)

This is exactly right.. And by the time you get to this level you have been involved in dozens of crashes.. Just move on..because of billions of media input points even the couple of riders involved are buying into it's a big deal.. It's not.. Internet echo chamber.. And still little to no comment if the model of bike Pogacar rode today played a role in his roll around... It's coming.. Grams plus or minus is the reason he got off..
