Tadej Pogacar and Mauro Giannetti

[lenric]

if he wins the tour he should try the vuelta, I mean, why not

Most sports police themselves, which is why no one serious ever gets caught.

pogacar identifies as a bread an butter cyclist, no chemicals, just marginal gains and the good old protein shake

Is he beating the VAM of Riis at Hautacam? It sounds like it is

Nah its because the modern gels have more carbs in them. Vaughters said so.

LOL

 

[Peyroteo94]

Hello boys! Today is a great day to be alive! Lol!

I love Pog as much as the next guy, but this ride (and a supposedly recovered-from-near-death-crash Vingegaard destroying Remco with 2 minutes) is over the top ridiculous. Never would have thought I’d miss the SKY era, which wasn’t a tenth as outrageous and outlandish as the post-COVID UAE/Visma duopoly.

I am glad that I witnessed what is probably the most insane performance of all time, hats off to all riders

 

[solo80k]

Great performance. Slovalien still asking where the last climb starts...

Mother of god...

Anyone whom believes Pog is clean is new to cycling.
Its starting to become Armstrong like levels.

Hopefully in the future there are either less or free enhancements, so that we can get a larger pool of contenders that will fight to the end.

The numbers Pog pull are insane. Pantani would have lost minuttes to him today.

OMG, this was the ultimate thermonuclear performance, easily the best of the century!. Mou was right, Giro was far from his peak. 6.6-6.7 w/kg for 40 minutes? Ridiculous. Credit to Vingo as well, both mutants contributed to this (team time trial by ultimate rivals)

 

[Simurgh]

Have also seen 39’30

I usually do not put that much stock in the motor stuff, but I am actually starting to think that motors are being involved

almost 4 minutes... or 10%...

Way more than 6.6 w/kg. He took 3 and half minutes on Pantani

yeah that's where the exhaust fumes come from

Its just not fun to watch "staged" performances like this.
I am sick of all the duels.. I know many like them.. Pog is however atleast charismatic and that helps him alot, like it helped riders before him.

 

[Brullnux]

Craziest performance I have ever, ever seen. Granted, didn't watch cycling in 00s, but this was how I i.agine it was back then

 

[Mayomaniac]

At this point I'm started to get worried about their health, those guys are flying too close to the sun.

Now all Pogacar needs to do is conquer the Volta Portugal.
