And Messi. 8 nominations compared to 2 for CR7.I never heard of this award before. Looking at its Wikipedia page it appears that the judges are mostly tennis fans.

Sounds good. Especially since that race can have a extra significant historic meaning than normal this year.So Tre Valli calcelled. No more racing in terrible weather and full focus on Lombardy now. @James M Saturday will be much better, some rain showers possible but generally it should be ok. Around 17 degrees near Lago di Como and likely around 10 degrees one kilometer higher (Sormano area).
It's raining, it's pouring, the old man is snoring...
Pogi: "Can't we race a bit more, I was just going to attack."
Director: "Uh, it's raining cows and goats.."
Pogi: "It's just small puddles and natural cooling."
Director: "You'll get an Italian espresso and a large baguette directly from Nice. Just stop, please."
Pogi: "OK then."
MVDP was an extremely heavy favourite for Roubaix this year with no Wout and having crushed everyone the week before in Flanders.Has anyone been as big a favourite for a one day race? Even Valverde in Fleche wasn't this nailed on.
This is the only one I can think of bar MVDP at Flanders this year, if this even counts as a classic.Has anyone been as big a favourite for a one day race? Even Valverde in Fleche wasn't this nailed on.
and he is still increasing the gap to G2
But it's much more of a lottery than Lombardia.MVDP was an extremely heavy favourite for Roubaix this year with no Wout and having crushed everyone the week before in Flanders.
No great surprise to see Ayuso drop out but Fisher-Black riding is surprising and would have expected Wellens to be there.UAE Team Emirates for Il Lombardia:
Jan Christen
Finn Fisher-Black
Marc Hirschi
Rafal Majka
Tadej Pogacar
Pavel Sivakov
Adam Yates
Thats a good roster. Wouldnt mind seeing Vine but thats a good roster for Lombardia.
Honestly it could be Pogi and the 7 dwarfs and the result will be the same.UAE Team Emirates for Il Lombardia:

Yeah still like that they give Jan Christen a run he has had a good development this year, more to come from that area.Honestly it could be Pogi and the 7 dwarfs and the result will be the same.
Awesome video/editing.
one thing is certain: his body has clearly changed compared to previous years. Probably due to the change of coach, and he is getting "older" but if you take his appearance compared to 2021/2022, today his body is more sculpted, visually you can appreciate the muscle bands etc. before he was stockier, bigger@mou projects pogi to add 5-10 watts in 2025 with stronger body
He gonne drop everyone on saturday like I dropped my 4 year old niece the other day. We both have no mercy.
Also its very easy to forget about Pogacar when he has been the best for so long that he is only 26, so he is also in that age where its natural he only will improve and get stronger which again is yeah crazy.one thing is certain: his body has clearly changed compared to previous years.
