Teams & Riders Tadej Pogačar discussion thread

[Cycling111]

He has been with Bonifazio, just like last year, training on the San Remo route.

I can also have a look at Francesco Moser's curriculum and see that it was not better than Pogacar's.

Yet...

Who is the best rider of alltime?

The ProCyclingStats alltime ranking is led by Eddy Merckx with 3859.8 points, before Sean Kelly (2171.1 points) and Francesco Moser (2129.2 points). Considering the enormous gap between Merckx and Kelly (3859.8) we can conclude that Merckx is the best rider of all time.

Pogacar will surpass all of them eventually as long as he keeps riding like this. But Moser rode 16 years professionally, so obviously that accumulates more points, even more so when you have 147 wins. Pogacar rode 7 seasons and is almost over all of them, so yeah that ranking seems correct.

Another 400 points season and Pogi is second on the list.

Why are we still citing PCS as if its a real benchmark for anything we all know better surely?

Unless people simultaneously want to claim Del Toro is the second‑best rider in the world right now and are willing to die on that hill you cant use PCS as a serious measurement. You can’t pick and choose when it counts.

Im a Del Toro enjoyer cause hes talent is intriguing but Its definitely not hard to aknowledge hes not even anywhere near a top‑3 in the world today.

No. Pogacar is way ahead of Moser now.

PCS have the worst ranking imaginable.

It lacks so much context that its impossible to even explain it without laughing out loud.

Another example according to PCS, Viviana is better than Vingegaard…

Viviani is a great point hunter
