When will Tadej get #100?

[Cycling111]

99 comes by accident tomorrow
100 the GC

If Visma doesn't pull like today, I think the breakaway will win tomorrow.

 

[Krzysztof_O]

100 at the Dauphine is looking quite likely now. Provided that UAE or Visma decide to keep the breakaway on leash.

Visma should try to get in the break with Jorgenson/Kuss/Tulett if they're smart.

June 15, 2025 CdD overall due to winning stages 1, 6, 7, and 8.

Do you have any money on it?

Do you have any money on it?

I don’t bet or gamble in case it ends up losing, which has been detrimental on correct predictions in either cycling or other sports but I’d say I’m wrong quite a bite more than right but when I’m right, I’m right.

 

[No Excuses]

Probably today. If the breakaway is not too far away and visma can't keep him entertained he might follow his instincts.
A seated attack from 8 km out or so can be enough.

I think he wants to save number 100 for an iconic climb (like Hautacam for example) but Visma are playing with his nerves.

Pog just wants to win -, there is no saving for an iconic climb if the race dictates. That said given the margins the race would usuay dictate this is a breakaway day and I cannot see UAE controlling for the purpose of a stage win unless a strong protagonist is in the break. Jumbo may but they'd be better of trying to stick a Kuss, or Jorgenssen who are no longer GC threats into a break if they want to win the stage.

Pogacar and UAE won’t let any Visma rider win. If Kuss or Jorgensen are in the break, UAE will control it for a Pogacar win.

 

[Unterlenkerfahrend]

Funny dilemma, I think he cares quite a bit about these statistics and would like to have his 100th at the Tour and with the first week he's almost guaranteed one.
But he's also petty enough to not let Visma win one here so he'll probably win again today.

 

[Cycling111]

This supposed meanness is reciprocal. Visma and his entourage have been making unpleasant statements against Pogacar for years.

Anyway, Visma controlled the stage yesterday. Sivakov only controlled it at the finish when the gap to the break was already small.

I don't think they'll control it today.
I think if Visma doesn't control UAE won't.

Also, I think Pogacar doesn't want to compete the green jersey against Van der Poel.

Maybe he's happy with vdP winning the points classification, on the other hand right now he leads in GC, Points and KOM. To win all of them is a nice feat that really doesn't happen often at all. 50% Stage wins, all jerseys except white and 100 wins, possibly all with a single strike. Don't know if UAE doesn't think that's to cool to give away.

Yeah, Visma have been saying stuff for ages. Since Dumo saying Pog looked like a miner on the bike. They always been talking a lot. Just did before the race as well.

Jorg tweets after the ITT and them doing interviews outside UAE bus after the ITT.

Hilarious that they then play victim. Just so arrogant.

Mindgames are part of cycling but Plugge looks like a fool right now after those comments about Vingegaard being better than Pogacar in a 3 week race.
I don't see mindgames as arrogance, Pogacar does it too. They are killers and want to win. For example, Pogacar was cruising yesterday and lost 17 seconds in the last km just for Vingegaard to see him in the finish line. Cycling is a mental game too.

It is a difference between mind games and being disrespectful. Visma mostly find themselves on the latter one.

Disappointing today, very disappointing.

I expected this. He tried really hard to not win today.

I don't believe he will not win before Hautacam.
