Teams & Riders Tadej Pogačar discussion thread

It's a 4 minute climb and Pogacar puts 10-15 secs on Carapaz level riders there.
I see it as quite likely that Paul will follow him.

He was cruising mate. Look to his attack.

Agree starved French fans will likely switch to Seixas but what do you mean by, "loses the sprint in France" ?

I know everbody is waiting for roubaix but after todays performance from seixas, do you think he is dangerous for pogacar at LBL in 2 weeks?

I think the most possible for Seixas is to follow Pogacar on Redoute and then if Pogacar is happy with cooperation Seixas offers he only drops him on the final climb, otherwise on the immediate next

I'd be surprised if Seixass could follow him on La Redoute. Pogi seems to be on stellar form and last years redoute was absurd, I don't think Seixass is there yet.

I wouldn't. At this point, he is closer to Pogacar than others being close to him (except Remco).

LBL is in but a few weeks. I don't think his current possible level is higher than what we are seing right now, and that just won't be enough. I don't think Seixas is much stronger right now than he was at Strade, or will be in a few weeks. And that's just what he would need to be to even have a chance.

I already think he will show a similar level to Remco

Seixas is gonna be a true champion and clown these f*boys

He is implying he only needs to drop MVDP, since that was the only one there last year. But last year the only reason MVDP was the only one was because WVA was worse than this year, and Pedersen had a mechanical. I'm not so sure they will be dropped this year if they don't have any issues.

There are always some issues in Roubaix. Pogacar will make the race very hard, he's prepared and in superb form. Dropping Van der Poel will be the main problem anyway but various things happen in this race. As for Wout and Mads, they could be there in the finale or maybe they wont be able to withstand the top2 favourites pace.
