Teams & Riders Tadej Pogačar discussion thread

If Vinge wins the Giro, does he have a better season than Pog or not?

Only if he wins the TDF as well IMO.

Rumor is he will go to altitude for 4 weeks up until 2 days before Tour of Swiss

2 days before TdS seem unrealistic. And he never goes over 19-20 days at altitude.

Pogacar is winning TdF + Strade + 4 monuments (he is the ultra favorite for Lombardia) + Romandie + Suisse

So, no. Not even close.

Plus he's the big favourite for WC and EC

Yep. He is going to win both as well.

Dropping Pogačar...even if only for a stage, even if only on a single mountain, even if only on a single climb. It’s what many want to see, witness, and delight in. I highly doubt it. I highly doubt it will happen in 2026. Is everything he does legal or without extra assistance? I doubt that too.

It happened in Montmarte last year. Maybe they can do it once again.

True and I was thrilled! But it was WVA all over again. That’s exactly why, after Paris and this year’s PR, Pogi won’t want to get dropped there again (I can’t remember if it’s on this year’s route) and definitely not by WVA. Will anyone else be able to pull it off?! I highly doubt it.

In a sprint. Who cares?

I was referring dropped on a climb not in a flat sprint.

Take that sh*t to the correct forum hole!
