I'm back. Very important day today! Yesterday he was very impressive, superb ride! Let's see if Vingegaard can fight back, it would be great for the rest of the Tour. Go go Pogi!
How you feel about the best climing performance this century? He just continues to ride away from everyone on climbs like entire year and setting records while doing it and everyone blowing up trying to follow his tempo. Now that he isnt injured and riding with a fractured wrist who woulda thought:sweatsmile:. Was a epic stage!

I don't know how they came with those numbers. I made my calculations and I had 6.52 w/kg for 27:50 minutes. But I don't give importance to numbers, I look to the gap for other riders and climb's record. The gap was ok, nothing extraordinary (1.30 minutes for most gc riders) but he completely destroyed the record and that was fairly impressive. It is a record from Rominger and he was almost 2 minutes faster than Armstrong in the first 9 km. This is remarkable so probably a legendary ride from Pogacar.

Yes it was one of the climbing performance of this century properly. Jonas was on his numbers last year for instance.
Further more solidify the other day he just went out of fuel. Lets see today but ive yet to see anyone even managing to stay on his wheel. Nice to have you back enjoy the stage. Very important day indeed.
 
I guess not nothing new the guy just rides away like its nothing. He is just way stronger in the mountains its veery very obvious and frankly been it entire tour year forever. Imagine you fracture your wrist ride with a fractured wrist like last year so strong still and not thinking he would be better without that.

This is a knockout.
 
Idc if he doest this to Vingegaardin the mountains on hot days and beat Van der Poel in Flandern idc he is my goat try to convince me this is ridiculous. (and just a way to pay respect to Vingegaard and Van der Poel by saying that.)

Even forgot the giro there 2 sec.This is insane.

Hilarious!! Best performance of the century! Almost 7 w/kg for 40 minutes
He will win the tour and make this the greatest season in history as long as he dont get sick or crash now! 5 stages bascily left he can crash out of.

There is no doubt who is the strongest, this is properly the best climbing performance of all time before the numbers come in but there is zero doubt.
