Nice to see that acts of sportmanship from both of them at the end.

Honestly Vinge gained a lot of respect there

 

[Salvarani]

He hadn't done enough crying yet before yesterday, but now he's got it out of his system and is ready to rock

Hehe exactly.

Just the mental blow, not bad legs

 

[Danskebjerge]

Greed. 😊

POGACAR WINS!

One for the haters.

 

[Didinho]

They all worked for Pogi untill the stomp.

He’s gonna win so easily tomorrow again.

 

[No Excuses]

Goat taking it

 

[Lequack]

Pogacar forced into another stage win by others. When will they stop?
I can hear Lance Armstrong complaining already.

 

[SHAD0W93]

Honestly it looks like UAE are keeping the gap down in case Soler can’t win with Quickstep.

Just like that UAE kept it close in the beginning, Almeida pacing, and Vingegaard brought Pogacar to the end so he can win again.



Even crazier, Roll and Liggett have been calling Almeida “Ayuso”. Adam might move up as well if C Rod is far behind.

Honestly Vinge gained a lot of respect there

Yes he did. He was destroyed yesterday. He picked himself and did himself proud today.

 

[Netserk]

I don't get the point of asking Pogi for pulls. Vingegaard should have ridden as if he was alone and then just let Pogi mug him on the line.

 

[GroupDK]

Impressive comeback from Jonas and answer to Remco.

 

[Scarponi]

Yes he did. He was destroyed yesterday. He picked himself and did himself proud today.

A lot of riders would have let them come in together for their ego. Telling pog to contest it was class

No he did what Armstrong said!!
He did not take minuttes he just made a sprint victory.

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Strange ending of this stage. Why could not Carapaz or Mas win ???

Because they rode too slow.

POGACAR WINS!

One for the haters.

Yeah, the haters literally love to see it!

 

[fenns]

Not been watching the last few days?

yes i have. i got it wrong it was jonas who attacked and distanced remco himself

 

[Miha81]

Well done Tadej!!!

Jonas was awesome today!

He was. If both come strong in 2025 edition we got another duel on our hands.

 

[fbjim]

that was proper proper shithousing, i am fully excited to watch the Vuelta to see more of that

 

[slim charles]

Well, this was fun. Not in the way I hoped, and I would definitely have preferred a different winner, primarily Mas, but still, a fun, and maybe a little funny stage.

Pogacar is just significantly stronger than Vingegaard right now, who is significantly stronger than Remco. I understand that people find it boring [and other things that are not for this part of the forum], but it is what it is.

You‘re faster if the other guy pulls as well, reasonable

 

[Salvarani]

Yes he did. He was destroyed yesterday. He picked himself and did himself proud today.

He stopped being in his feelings

 

[Berniece]

haha nice one Pogi

 

[Lequack]

For a moment there I though Pog would give the stage to Vinge by riding to the finish hand in hand, maybe even hugging.

 

[jono]

Not sure what Pogacar can do to make people happy in that situation. He and his team showed all day they were happy letting the break win. But Soudal set it up for him, Jonas dropped Remco, and then why should he gift Jonas?

 

[DrSahl]

Yes he did. He was destroyed yesterday. He picked himself and did himself proud today.

I disagree
Did you ever look at his numbers? his like the secound best rider of all time.. Sure he can´t and never will match Pog in full power, but that is alright..
