Teams & Riders Tadej Pogačar discussion thread

There should be a top ceiling for either of them. If both improve significantly year after year even after 30 with everything going on (crashes, intense racing all year round, media pressure), I would find that hard to explain.

Van der Poel is better than ever this year at 30, and Pedersen's progress is even more evident; he's also 30.

Pogacar turns 27 in September. Athletes typically improve in their twenties, and the prime age is usually 28 (this is an average).

I think Pogacar has 5 more seasons in him

Me too.

And another 5 after that.

What do you want him to say? This is an obvious answer. He can't say he will not challenge Pogacar

Of course but I like how confident he sounds.

I dont remember Pogacar having this kind of confident talk in 2023 (before his injury) or 2024 (before vingo injury).
And I dont think Pogi would ever talk this way. Pogi always says stuff like " yea training is going good, feeling good, hopefully we will do great at X "
