There is just one guy who is problem for Pogi on MSR. All "other guys" can't compete with Pogacar already on Cipressa. MvDP rode perfekt last three MSR but i don't believe he will beat Pogacar forever there. Vuelta he will get it next year, he is just smart enough to not ride it against Vingegard (he would still destoy him) when he can ride it when Jonas is not there and save some energy. P-R will be a real trouble though.2 races Pogi will never win, MSR (because other guys are better then him on that finish) and the Vuelta because doing the Spring races and the Tour is too much before the Vuelta.
"we can see"....? Love the quick conclusions and jump to ascending the judge status of anointing him with "Credit" if he can keep winning. How many of you critics actually ride outdoors? How many have raced? It's my common rant but this guy knows how to navigate the system of pro racing. If he wins the Worlds will you still pursue this line of reasoning? We still wouldn't know.Probably as we can see he is mentally affected and will not be so dominant by 2028, It will be hard for him as he has been dominant since a young age. Credit to him if he can keep winning at this rate beyond 2028
The Vuelta is the easiest GT for Teddy. 20 minutes climbs are his strenght. He just needs to show up in good shape.2 races Pogi will never win, MSR (because other guys are better then him on that finish) and the Vuelta because doing the Spring races and the Tour is too much before the Vuelta.
Armchair UCI commissaire is an even more popular job than armchair cyclist.I guess he wouldn't mind if a rider ahead of him changes lane and chops him off.

I doubt anyone here thought that the negligent behaviour of Pogi justified how Johannessen moved.He had an accident in the Tour because of it.
But I remember that some people here blamed Pogacar, justifying that change of direction. LOL
Imagine if Van Poppel does the same is a race next year and ends up taking him out, the guy is reckless all the time.I guess he wouldn't mind if a rider ahead of him changes lane and chops him off.

If you go back to the race thread for that stage, lots of people were blaming Pogacar for the crash.I doubt anyone here thought that the negligent behaviour of Pogi justified how Johannessen moved.
Would you mind quoting an example?
Weren't you who blame Pogacar instead of THJ? Because he was on the radio?I guess he wouldn't mind if a rider ahead of him changes lane and chops him off.

I'm sure lots of people correctly pointed out how Pogi contributed to the accident.If you go back to the race thread for that stage, lots of people were blaming Pogacar for the crash.
I don't think so, no. Not instead of Johannessen.Weren't you who blame Pogacar instead of THJ?
And his more mature self today wouldn't have any bad words for Dylan van Baarle.I guess he must also believe his own 3rd place from the 2020 LBL should be taken away since Alaphilippe did nothing wrong.
Whataboutism.And his more mature self today wouldn't have any bad words for Dylan van Baarle.
Ah ok, so you blamed both even if Pogacar didn't make anything wrong (IMO).I don't think so, no. Not instead of Johannessen.
This doesn't seem a post from a mature person. It's very obvious he is still salty about Ivo's relegation a few weeks ago.And his more mature self today wouldn't have any bad words for Dylan van Baarle.
If Brennan today decided to look over his shoulder during the sprint and thus couldn't avoid a crash, I'd blame him too for not being attentive enough.Ah ok, so you blamed both even if Pogacar didn't make anything wrong (IMO).
Tell me a rider who doesn't talk to the radio in a stage or classic.If Brennan today decided to look over his shoulder during the sprint and thus couldn't avoid a crash, I'd blame him too for not being attentive enough.
Most talk on the radio in quieter moments or in a safer manner.Tell me a rider who doesn't talk to the radio in a stage or classic.
