I couldn’t even take myself to read the article. Pogi was the main protagonist in both races. Not both riders. And mvp is not winning Lombardia nor LBL. So moot concept of an article
Even with a very weak field in 2020 in finishing a creditable 10th MVDP was 6mins 28secs behind the winner.

When you look at the gaps behind Pogacar last year you can’t picture MVDP climbing well enough to feature in any top 5.

It is beyond stupid. There are 20 riders more able to win LBL than MVP and I'm not even talking about GdL.

The 20 riders more able to win LBL than VDP might be the next best list after the 50 riders who climb better than WVA.

In other words: Pogacar is the boss.

„I think it's obvious that Van der Poel has to be number one, not just because he won last year, but because he's a much better classics rider than Tadej Pogacar, there's no doubt about that”. WTF is he talking about ?

These UAE riders are lunatic.

He got second in PR in 2021. If he has very good legs then maybe he can be helpful in creating some tactical advantage (i.e. breakaway forcing Pog's rivals to work more than him).

I just got here in time—it’s Friday, and it’s Roubaix weekend! We get to see Pantani 2.0 ride Roubaix.

Crazy times; this should be a blast. The wonder boy got balls of steel to go up against the likes he is—hard to deny that. Everyone in cycling is anticipating it. Whatever happens, it’s going to be a great show and thats what its about.
