Don't worry. He will be okay

Teddy loves hot weather nowadays. He will be dead & gone in this cold.

Long time listener, first time caller. Maybe I’m overreacting but Pogi’s jersey was unzipped a bit towards the top of the Tourmalet wasn’t it? 14 degrees on the upper slopes, is that a tell of his condition today 🤔

Where have you been tom???

Today is the perfect weather for him. I wouldn't rule out another 1'30" gap to Vingegaard.

He might even go on peyresourd
Col de romme-colombier(2021)
Peyresourd-superbangers(2025)🤩

I'm just questioning what is Visma thinking after looking to this weather.

Try for stage win?

 

[Peyroteo94]

Try for stage win?

Yeah but GC win looks almost impossible

I'm wondering how much time he will wait to attack. His team is not strong enough to put a hard pace for several kms.

 

[Peyroteo94]

Sivakov really messed up his preparation. He was a beast last year.

 

[Cycling111]

Campenaerts in the group.

The pace of the UAE's domestiques was superior last year.

Of course, Sivakov and Yates are weaker and Almeida is not here.

 

[Cycling111]

Has Pogacar decided to give the stage to Arensmann due to pressure?

 

[snipeheem]

I dont understand why he didnt attack..

 

[rafa92]

very strange stage, I mean leaving a stage to the breakaway is totally normal, but why did the team pushed all day to keep it close?

 

[Peyroteo94]

I thought it was a bad day but he still put 4 seconds in 150m on Vingegaard...

 

[Jack_89]

I dont understand why he didnt attack..

Why should he have ? He'll win on Ventoux

 

[Peyroteo94]

Why should he have ? He'll win on Ventoux

Because his team went deep in this stage

 

[rafa92]

I thought it was a bad day but he still put 4 seconds in 150m on Vingegaard...

he could have won easily today, he decided to leave to the breakaway but why did he make his team work so much?

 

[Jack_89]

Sivakov not good enough + Arensman very strong + an attack with 10km to go would have cost him too much energy

 

[Skalman]

Sivakov should probably not have been here, a very bad ride yet again

Its a bad day a bit like 2023 marie blanque where his team paced all day but the difference in 2025 is that pogs bad day is jonas good day
