Teams & Riders Tadej Pogačar discussion thread

[Miha81]

He needs to bring his A game on stage 16 and stage 17, otherwise he is screwed

I am just hoping the team did not burn all their matches today. TJV will certanly try to attack tommorow and it was evident from the start of this stage when they gave some riders a rest day.

They burned some matches, but the guys you'd expect to be capable of the most work in the mountains were barely leaned upon at all.

Don't think I've ever seen Evenepoel berate his teammates while they were churning their guts out for him.

WOW. You actually could hear what Pogi was saying? Nice VPN.

Booooo, boring rider, turning into Roglič!

It's since I became a Pog fan, i.e. it was inevitable.

So get ready for some glorious Poglstomp for the next ten years.

When did that happened? I didn't realize.

Man is on a mission. To win this Tour. Whatever it takes. Even losing a bunch of fans on this forum.

There was a part when Pog was talking to Adam and Majka went up to talk with Felix but who knows what they were talking about.

The weather?

 

[SHAD0W93]

The weather?

What pace to set, what’s comfortable, when they’re going to attack, up the pace, how’s the weather, who farted, move over so I can pace, etc. The pace didn’t look like it went any higher and after that I think Majka paced for a little before Felix took back over.

Nice effort today, he really put everything into that last km attack

I feel one thing that kinda got lost in all this talk about tactics is, how insane was that attack? He just kept going and going and going.

How much they don’t like WVA

I guess this is the change of tactics from last year. Less attacking, but more sustained. The shorter attacks he did last year didn't manage to get rid of Vingegaard.

He learned from last years mistakes

Yeah, so far he picks his moment and just goes all in with it. Like he has found a threshold that Vingegaard cant hold on to or able to push. At least in last two ones. His attack in Cauterets was too brutal. Vingegaard was not in his wheel that time though, like the other times, and had no response that time.

He did similar in Flanders and Amstel, like he has done in Puy de Dome and today. Where he just goes until the other rider breaks. Sort of how he got rid of Carapaz in the Le Grand-Bornand stage as well.

Also 2 more very hard days until monday. Smart move to not cook yourself.

 

[Netserk]

Go away Troll.

Context is that which is scarce. And some people are less able to absorb it.

You know what they say, you either die a hero or live long enough to become the villain.
