Remco is thinking "How can I win the Tour one day?" Aliens are 3 steps above everyone in the high mountains.

 

[Valv.Piti]

Best mountain top finish ever!

 

[RobertCrawley]

One for the history books!!

 

[Bavarianrider]

Rolf, seems like he really put around 3 minutes on a supercharged Pantani. What the actual ***.

 

[postmanhat]

Maybe they'll ease off and give the breaks more chance in the third week. But maybe not after the way Pog rode The Giro.

 

[Peyroteo94]

Good job Rick. You missed it by 2:28

Remco's time almost

 

[BigL]

Ok lads I'm off to the clinic for the rest of the comments.

Chat soon.

Might as well rechristen this the clinic 😎

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Chapeau Pog, and also Vingo for giving it all.

 

[slim charles]

Even Landa almost beat Pantani's record?

 

[Sciatic]

Where did Almeida come from? I thought he dropped before Yates.

He did—and then was in his best chase mode

 

[Screecher]

What was that race called that Pogacar rode in the spring? Giro i think it was? What an amazing prep race that is. Everyone should do the same now.

 

[madthebad]

Do feel bad for everyone who will OTL today, what the *** are you supposed to do as a non-climber when Pogacar is running rings around freaking Pantani?

Only 1 minute faster than a guy with a punctured lung, broken ribs and bad TDF prep. Sounds legit to me, actually a bit underwhelming 😁

 

[Jack_89]

Complicated is granted, but the scenario doesn't seem totally outworldish to me. That being said: let Pantani keep some records.

Kudos, you were ****** right! Almost 4 minutes is unreal! 😨😨😨

 

[Miha81]

So Pogi almost 4min on Pantani, Jonas almost 3min and Remco about a minute. What a generation.

 

[Rechtschreibfehler]

So if last years TT was insane, what was this? Who didn't beat Pantani seems the question rather than who did. Can't believe it. Total insanity.

 

[Scarponi]

Probably the only time we should be allowed to use “full ***”

 

[Savant12]

Best mountain top finish ever!

Froome on Ventoux still holds a place in my heart.

The numbers are credible. The performance isn't. (Okay, I'll look for that other forum. 😉)

 

[Netserk]

Hautacam 1996 level performance.

 

[JosefK]

Pog might as well go ahead and win the Vuelta, eh?

 

[BigL]

Hautacam 1996 level performance.

Alas, true

 

[Scarponi]

What was that race called that Pogacar rode in the spring? Giro i think it was? What an amazing prep race that is. Everyone should do the same now.

Cadel Evans rocking in the corner. Wonder how Pog would have done after that horrific 2010 Giro

 

[Unchained]

So... Evenepoel a minute faster than Pantani.

Keytones

 

[dobrien]

Poor old Remco ...would be better for him to come last today

He is never going to compete with those 2 and in trying will be dissatisfied, will dissatisfy the Belgium fans and for what


Stay as a fatco winner remco

I agree totally with this; I already posted this before but I would truly hate to see Remco try to skeletonize himself fruitlessly and then lose the qualities that make him so exciting in other races. There is no universe in which Remco is ever going to put together two days like Pog just did yesterday and today, it is what it is. Remco did a phenomenal ride today, totally killed CRod, etc, and he just got absolutely nuked by Pog and a sub-100% Jonas. He has proved today he can win GT's when these two aren't around but he's never going to beat them at the Tour, not when they're riding like this.

 

[Krzysztof_O]

Hautacam 1996 level performance.

In today's form Pog would do Alpe in about 35 minutes! It's maybe the best performance in climbing history.
