Now they can play the media game at least they will have a buffer to play until the tour starts. The guy said "this isn't pogs best level by his summer standards" this tells me their camp wants to play "jonas is also not at his best shape thats why he lost a minute to an average pog" soon in the tour there are no places to hide. This is the best pog! He said it himself before the stage that on the rode there are no any improvements to be made but on the TT they will work on isola.
During the interview before the stage u can hear pog saying his level both in training and racing are great and there are not much improvements to be made in isola but they will work more on the TT. @ minute 2:42

I know, but I don’t care for those games. They cater to the lesser, yeah..Besides, Quick-Step and Visma said prior to the Dauphiné that they were better than ever, so whatever they say who cares at this point.Their media drill is solid, as it has to be when a guy barely races due to obvious reasons to keep their fans engaged someway.
Patterns and numbers don’t lie. Check UAE at the Dauphine last year versus their progress to the Tour relative to other teams. Politt drops half the peloton.. They come to the Dauphiné
two days after altitude training, compared to
seven days of acclimation like Quick-Step and Visma. So, by every logical pattern from previous cases with that program, UAE improves even more—meaning Pogacar improves even more relative ..
In the end, it doesn’t matter Pogacar is in a league of his own. The way he’s played with them even at this Dauphine grinning and laughing his ass off at that TT and still knowing he win easily... yeah, it’s so jeover.
