Tour de Romandie neither one-day nor monument, 28/04-03/05 2026

[TourOfSardinia]

Rog has the look of a rider who has already retired.

Getting in the long miles?

Red Bull working well to get their sprinter Pogacar another stage win

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Touch of genius from Roglic to sit up there. Pocagar won't understand what's coming

 

[Unterlenkerfahrend]

Romandie coverage seems to hate G2, no coverage of Steinhauser and Cras. Same situation as on stage 1 where they refused to show Cepeda and Lipowitz.

 

[Coppi-Bartali]

Today, again, UAE's weakness is evident.

Roglic could have fought for the stage win in a breakaway. UAE doesn't have a team capable of countering a strong breakaway.

Bora's tactics. They're racing as if Pogacar were their leader.

 

[Potomac]

Steinhauser voters are composed mostly of German patriots, EF fans, Fools, and a couple of names I don't recognise. It could really be anyone.

I fit two categories

 

[Sciatic]

throwback stage to the days of wondering if anyone would bother to attack on a sizable climb.

 

[Berniece]

FFB was close yesterday, so it’s understandable they want to go for it again

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Finn Fisher-Black seems to be the real Bora leader.

 

[Coppi-Bartali]

Free Roglic.

 

[Salvarani]

Godon back

 

[RedheadDane]

Dorian God-back-on!

 

[BubbaChuck]

lol.

I wouldn't call yesterday's sprint close.

Anyway, with Pogacar winning two sprints and seeing UAE's significant weakness in this race, it's clear that a good breakaway would have won today's stage. Roglic and other riders are far behind in the general classification; it's better to use Bora's superiority in a different way than by taking Pogacar to another sprint.

 

[Salvarani]

Good work August, I think?

I agree, but it’s not like this is a bad tactic. There was a better option, but this is fine

 

[Sciatic]

Caruso will get caught but today's ride should still get him in fight for the old-rider's jersey. When you think about it, in today's cycling the young rider jersey is so redundant it should be replaced

Getting in the long miles?

Turns out the rider that said he didn't train for this race did in fact not prepare optimally for this race

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Just tuning in can't wait to watch my favourite cyclist Florien lipovitz sprint for the win

 

[Valv.Piti]

But isn't he literally only just doing the Vuelta and maybe a prep race before? Whats the sense in not trying to do well here, and if you're not trying to do that, why even race in the first place?

Come on, even Lipowitz knows your favourite rider is Masnada.

Maybe he is on a break

Rogla is the new Cristiano Ronaldo. Why is it always polémique.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Fausto has been on a break for 4 years.
