Teams & Riders Tadej Pogačar discussion thread

[James M]

My point is that ifJonas could handle 2 GT's, Pogi can too.

Giro-tour is considererd harder though but that wasnt my point so nvm that. I only said I expect some fatigue after the biggest GT win in ages thats only natural I think. Ofcourse I agree with you regarding I think he can handle it I totally agree, just I expect some sort of fatigue nothing else.

Still don't know if his grandfather died... if yes, he didn't attend his funeral. He was posting pictures in Isola until yesterday but don't when were the photos taken.

If there will be any of teammates close in GC standings by the beginning of week 3 the domestique job was not done properly.

There is no doubt in my mind that Pogi is clear number one and UAE wants this double this year by the same rider.

Close in a GC battle can mean a few different things. For example:

Some UAE riders still close in GC and the same applies for some cyclists from other teams, by close meaning to still win the overall. Then in my opinion the job was not done properly or Pogi just didn't have it.

Some UAE riders are close in GC and the same applies for some cyclists from other teams, by close meaning to fight for second podium position, Pogi already too far ahead. Then indeed the job was done properly.

Imagine the scenarion, on where Pogi in third week confronts his team, guys, i am dying here, you are killing me, we are too close. And after cerful consideration and a minute of silence Adam responding, Pogi, but Jonas is miles behind, no way he will catch you?

You have vivid imagination. But we will soon find out. I still expect UAE testing the field from get go (and burning their other guys if neccessary). If competition will be able to follow we got race in our hands.

Obviously they will go all in from the get go or something is way off.

The pink panther what a beatiful race that was.. That trophy is so awesome is there anyone more beatiful in cycling i dont know about?

 

[Oldermanish]

They deleted the clinic worthy stuff I had posted behind

or golf. But that's not a sport; it's become a doped activity.

 

[scribers]

I believe anything. Tiger was the first golfer to take the physical preparation to world class athlete levels. It stands to reason guys look for an edge when no one is watching.

 

[James M]

T-minus 5 days untill take off

 

[James M]

5 days untill the wonderkid starts the double attempt are people stoked? Will he make history? Cant wait for the start in Florence.

Pogi's papers are being peer-reviewed by the old masters and he's getting praised!

"He wins in the spring, he wins in the summer, he wins at the end of the season," lists the 69-year-old, five time Maillot Jaune winner. "He's the one who is closest to us, honestly. He attacks, he has fun, he's happy."

"And then there's that smile..." - Bernard Hinault on why Tadej Pogacar strikes a chord with fans more than Jonas Vingegaard

You'll often find that in any sport, the most dominant winners aren't always the most adored as fans prefer to see the underdog triumph over the all-conquering force. In Tadej Pogacar's case however,...

Nothing new. The reason why "there can be only one" at UAE.

 

[Elos Anjos]

yes, Hinault comes out everyday to flatter riders for their smile.

srsls, this guy is the badger, a walking curmudgeon that now seems like he wants to cuddle with Pogi.

He already flattered Pogi in the past same as Merckx. They both already expressed love for his do or die attitude, playfulness and ability to win.

Pog just needs a Paris Roubaix win and another Liege win in a snowstorm and he can relax.

 

[Peyroteo94]

Do we have bonus seconds in strategic points just like last year?
