Teams & Riders Tadej Pogačar discussion thread

Agree. I think Pog debunked his bad reputation in the heat in the last two TdFs which were hot.

Pogacar crushed the competition on a super hot stage finishing in Hautacam and was super strong during hot days of Tour 2024 as well. If anything, I would say his performance in cold conditions (relative to his rivals) isn't that impressive anymore.

Pogi is flying while Remco is giving crappy interviews: I want to be greater than Merckx, I want to be better than Pogi, etc etc.

Remco was giving interviews about Pog, so he is probably a fanboy in disguise.

Remco was asked if he thinks he could win TDF, and he reluctantly said yes. He is asked about Pogacar, doesn’t discuss him himself.

Remco fans thinking if Pogi all the time.

His most recent performances in the cold/wet conditions in the Tour happened when he was slightly sick/had that knee issue though. In Fleche this year in the rain, he still crushed his rivals (but that was just a 500 meter max effort).

You do realise that interviews and training in the same few days is possible...
