I would only be shocked if puts that time into Remco.
Due to similar TT background added to the performance leap since 2024. (Pogi is not between Jorgenson and Lipo in TT)
If whatever issue was behind his underwhelming Dauphine TT is resolved for the Tour then logically Pogacar should be at least as good as Jonas in this discipline - he is slightly heavier and has more outright power. Particularly on what he showed in 2024.
Vingegaard has more power compared to last year, has a better setup and he is more aerodynamic. I think he will beat Pogacar but not like we saw in the Dauphiné
Not doubting you but why is this? Bike? Body shape? It should be possible for Pogacar to lower his CdA. And on their heights they are line ball (Pog is 0.5cm taller) so Jonas doesn’t have a frontal area advantage like the shorter Remco.
Pogi was pretty underwhelming in the UAE Tour ITT not that it was ever going to matter in that race.
Stage 16 TT tdf 2023 lives rent free in my head so I'll count the TT and the overall tour won for Pogi when I see it with my own eyes 😅
No he wasn't. He was good there, very good when we compare to this TT in the Dauphine.
I'm pretty sure he doesn't practise as much as Vingegaard or Remco. Remco is a natural time triallist, he born to push watts in a TT position. I think Vingegaard does more work in his TT bike which is normal since Pogacar is a classics rider until April.
Pogs baseline performance level is effectively very good so good is an underwhelming performance
Losing 1 second per kilometre or less on a sub 15km flat TT and being within 20-25 seconds on long flatter or semi rolling TTs
Thanks. I'm wondering how Ayuso's english is so good, almost a native person talking. This is very rare, normally spanish people are terrible in English.
His father worked in the United States and they lived there for a few years.
