Great win and bounce back!!!! Hopefully tomorrow he can continue to show the improved training he said he’s done on longer climbs. If push comes to shove Vingegaard has still shown he has trouble following the acceleration, plus his team has been making mince meat of Visma so far.

Predicting this stage wasn't easy. Pogacar's level is overly unconventional compared to any rider. Not that the Tour title has been already deciced and packed, but Vingegaard clearly needs a perfect prep to take on Pogacar, just as Pogacar needed this run-in to compete against Vinegaard in the last year's TdF. Providing both of them hit the tour on full magic, most of fans would've made a bet on the Slovenian. Theres no doubt. Pogačar's absolute best seems almost untouchable.

Has anyone predicted Pogačar is done on longer climbs? I could hardly imagine event most enthuaiastic Vinegaards fans coming up with this kind of thoughts.

Only a crash, covid can stop him. The giro even in his legs wont be enough the gap to just to equal him is to big and even if the giro legs starts showing for real its not enough considering how big the strenght gap is.

Only crash and covid can stop him from this now I think.

TBH for a moment I thought Jonas will wheel him in. What a display. I did not expect this today.

I hope he has more in the legs for tomorrow.

Predicting this was pretty easy. I've been saying for 8 months now the Giro wouldn't affect him much and been saying for 3 months now no way in hell Vingegaard gonna be in top shape.

But then people just call me a salty hater when I speak truthfully. That too is expected. First there was Jesus, then Jose, now there is me.

Well even a very broken clock can be right twice a year.

was about to type it said it after yesterday stage I get that some find it weird and it is aswell but many things are wierd with him? Winning flandern vs Mdvp and crushing Vingegaard in the mountanis with ease logic dont apply to him. He is very well aware of the tactics behind it but my point yesterday he is just that much stronger than anyone else so he properly dont even notice that sprint yesterday even.... And I even think ridding the tour last year with a fractured wrist, fractured I mind you amplifies that aloot.

The hardet part is to grasp just how strong he is. Its ridiculous.
