Do you know about facing healthy top riders without bad crashes?

If it wasn't for the crash in Il lombardia 2020, Remco would have been way sooner the best one day racer. It's just a question of time.

This must be trolling at his highest level. It is impossible to maintain a conversation with someone who is constantly trying to bash a rider because he doesn't like him. But this WC and Lombardia will give us a clear picture. I will be the first one to give you an apology if Remco wins WC or Lombardia against Pogacar.

Clickbait at its best.

Here is the original question and answer:
If we've learned anything about you in recent years, it's the fact that you never go to races just to put on a starting number. In an interview with Delo, coach Murn said that it is known that Pogačar has announced a move to the rainbow shirt, but that our national team can achieve a top result with both of them. Slovenian fans are already dreaming of gold and silver, how will you agree on roles in the road race within the team? To be honest, it's hard for me to comment on this. Everyone wants to be world champion, it's no secret. How realistic this is for anyone is another matter entirely. This reality will reveal itself during the race, two laps before the end or even in the last lap. These are sweet concerns for Slovenian cycling. If it comes down to who among us will be first and who will be second, I think we will be able to come to an agreement quite quickly.

Clickbait, and the segue for either two principle riders to obscure any outright ambitions. What do you expect them to do? Stand up and act like an octagon fighter, declaring whom they will Crush. How'd that ever work for the Italian teams?

Thing is even if they're formally both leaders and 'let the road decide' it's gonna play out that Pogacar is G1 and Roglic is G2.

Problem only arises if Roglic in his role has the role of speculative attacker and Pogacar has to protect Roglic' move. Because that is cycling strategy 101 and it should never apply here, unless specifically Roglic is ahead alone or with some proven non winner like Wilco Kelderman.

Exactly. Except that is not the "only" situation. Lacking radios you also add in the fatigue factor. How do either behave when they aren't certain the pre-emptive attack and gap can't be covered and both are still in the mix?
You have to ask which Slovenian wins/loses a finale sprint with Remco, MvP.....how about my local fave Matteo? There's a Dark Horse, for sure. Don't lose that kid's number!

Mohorič had a big crash this morning on a bike. No news yet but they say it's serious. That's a huge blow for Team Slovenia RR.

Reading news published in some media it does not seem serious at all. They don't even hint him to miss WC. If anything, he will skip the race but he should be OK.

When I read your post I though about a life threatening or at least a really serious injury (a Van Aert or Vingegaard kind of a fall)
