Absolutely perfect first half of the season for Pogačar, 14 wins!
Just hope he doesn't leadout Molano again in a Grand Tour.
Didn‘t know Tadej was a trophy, but if that‘s cannibalism…
Better not to compare this Giro with the last Tour, it has nothing to do with it, here he has only forced when he wanted and maybe we haven't seen everything. But he's probably much better this May than in May 2023And yet he didn't reached on this Giro the numbers he produced last year in the Tour de France when he clearly improved from 2022 to 2023 in terms of climbing level.
So, that take doesn't fit right with what happened on the road. Plus, it doesn't make sense thinking he had just one bad day in 21 days(he was already good 2 days after in the vosges) because of preparation, since he also had a bad day in 2022. It was public that he crashed in the stage and had stomach issues.
Pogacar climbing level in the Tour 2023 was is best version ever, and it was with San Millan.

To be fair Wiggins had a home Olympics TT a week later where he was a big favourite to win so that is a very similar circumstance.Guys how does all of u not read the whole statement. "when he has an appointment at the biggest race in the world" and that is the tour ahead of him
Score looks unreal4400 CQ points in the running score!!
And more than double the points of number 2 on this year's list.
What's unreal is that his season score could very well surpass his already record-setting rolling score.Score looks unreal
Looks like Soler has already started with solerisem.Currently at UAE altitude camp is Sivakov, Politt, Almeida, Wellens, Ayuso and Yates. They had more provisional riders on the list than this so I wonder if they have already decided on the team?
Pog is going to altitude with Urska when she is back from racing in Spain and not sure who else will joint them there.
PCS has those 6 plus Soler as the riders joining Pogacar in the TDF lineup.Currently at UAE altitude camp is Sivakov, Politt, Almeida, Wellens, Ayuso and Yates. They had more provisional riders on the list than this so I wonder if they have already decided on the team?

Very strong but a lot of riders who will have to swallow their ego and work far earlier in stages than they are used to and nobody who has ever really been a full time domestique.

I don't get the joke... What roadworks?![]()
Roadworks still havent been completed either, sign is still there on the right!!!
So now only two things remain for Pog this year:
1. Beat Vingo and win the Tour
2. Win the Road World Championship
A bonus would be to scope up the Vuelta and Lombardia but I guess that's not in his focus.
