- I guess you could go and replicate the crash and see how you get on afterwards 🙏
- Amazing shape? If you look at his dominant Tirreno-Adriatico 2024 (which came after O Gran Camiño, where he won EVERYTHING), he was not at that level at the Tour. Juan Ayuso was second, and at the Tour de France was at a level (prior to catching Covid) worthy of a podium, but he could only watch Vingegaard's 29 km solo on stage 5, and the following day he couldn't do anything either. Without the crash he'd have improved on that level for the Tour, where he might have beaten Pogačar.
Of course the crash can't really impact his shape now (though potentially his progression) and he said after La Vuelta last year that he's back on a high level
- Very well said.
Obviously Horner is overdoing whatever he’s taking, as he doesn’t even seem to know where to aim.
Firstly, MVDP for all his talent, still can’t see what’s happening behind him so unless someone tells him Jasper is cooked (unlikely to come from a rival rider) how is he to know. If anyone tells him anything it will be over the radio, so EITHER management were ok with it or he directly ignored an order or THEY didn’t do their job. Let’s find out before spewing out insults maybe Chris?
Now, as to the multiple reasons why this might have been « planned « I can come up with almost half a dozen.
I’m not going to divulge ALL of them before MSR as this was in view of it but anyone who really wants to will be able to figure out several scenarios they might be preparing for.
Maybe it was a test FOR Jasper Chris, how idiotic would that be?
- He's quite slow to realise who's now the best. He somehow thinks that Roglič is the 2nd best rider, and that Philipsen is the best sprinter. His bias against Mathieu was also shown in one of his videos where he analysed whether Tom Pidcock could challenge van der Poel at Omloop (ha). One thing (though I haven't watched it) is that he seems to have stopped using the word knuclehead, which can only be a good thing
- Why, it’s funny (sometimes) when he shoots his load prematurely (in retrospect).
- If you pay attention to it, you’ll see it’s a question, seeing as your post was sooooooo elaborate.
- He's an idiot
- He was in amazing shape in the Tour 2024, 3 months after the crash, but in P-N 2026 that same crash is a reason why he wasn't very good? Don't make a fool out of yourself
- You need to understand that these sort of articles are there to draw you in. It's commonly known as clickbait.
- Agree. Horner is an old fart who doesn't understand how racing works these days. Oh, and his biases extend to Isaac del Toro, apparently
