Teams & Riders Tadej Pogačar discussion thread

Not that i think that he couldn't go faster, he most likely could, but the sprint itself doesn't say much. Had plenty of time to "recover" and he is by a mile better sprinter than anyone in that group, not even remotely close.

Maybe. It was still a very dominant sprint.

Jonas has been beasting multiple WT stage races this year already while Pogacar has been hiding from stage races and only done 4 race days.

Pogi's wins >>> Jonas, but Jonas has a Giro to win.

Different efforts though.
His sprint showed he was fresh, a pity he didn't go all out.

He didn't need to and there is no reason to gratuitously humiliate colleagues. Even he needs to be diplomatic now and then. Pog the magnimanious sovreign.

sad to see earnest posters silenced

Underwhelming performance. I will wait for the end of Romandie but if he shows another performance like this, Seixas will be my number one favorite for the Tour.

This is concerning for the tour

You guys are insane. He gained weight for Roubaix and MSR, and is still tired from LBL. Nothing is wrong. Would be nice to have an exciting TDF though, but the challenge will come from Vingegaard rather than Seixas

A little surprising not to see him simply waltz away but then once they hadn’t simply crumbled behind it was sensible riding to just ride a strong controlled pace and have a small group to ride on the flat to stay clear.

Sprint was highly impressive as I at least expected Lenny Martinez to be somewhat competitive yet it was around 5 bike lengths gap.
