- Red Bull have a crazy team. I think both Remco and Florian will be stronger after altitude (neither performed in the mountains before, but while Evenepoel had more success with 7 wins as opposed to Lipowitz's 1, that was down to his engine, not his climbing skills).
Dani was great in Paris-Nice, and looks to be on his way to his 2024 form.
Jai didn't go for GC at Tirreno-Adriatico but as a pure climber it's not what suits him, but he (unlike a teammate of his) worked and was visible so it wasn't a bad performance. He was similarly rubbish at Vuelta a Burgos but finished 4th at La Vuelta.
Whether that group can take the challenge to Vingegaard is the question
- I wasn't aware that Mathieu crashed and explained his lack of form as being due to having to come back after being held up by Pogačar's crash. But that he crashed is explains it better. From his description it sounds worse than the crash of Pogačar, who slid butit didn't look like anyone went into him.
- Philosophers are often so caught up in the philosophical philosophy of philosophy that they don't think with common sense.
MrMauMau posted a very long comment on Dylan Groenewegen's promotion to the podium in Clasíca de Almería but failed to realise that the image was distorted because otherwise riders closer to the camera would appear larger and more in front.
A person can be both a philosopher and a "BS'er" though the latter is not as of yet defined in the Oxford Dictionary.

You are taking away from the huge significance Tadej's victory by saying he was crippled by the crash. It was a hugely impressive performance, but the impacts of the crash were the energy loss from having to come back. I've stated this before but I will do so again - putting too much emphasis on the impacts of minor and superficial injuries actually takes away from the achievement. You are saying that the achievement wouldn't be as great without the crash. Now that sounds obvious but if you were to imagine saying that it was extra impressive because of being 'battered and bruised' to Pogačar himself he'd most likely say that that aspect was minimal.
I don't like comparing different eras but a comparison between Tadej and Merckx is only possible once Pogačar retires. Often we underestimate what the pros do, and how fine the balance is. No matter what Pogačar has done up to now, he could have a career ending training crash tomorrow and that'd be it. He'd not be discussed as the GOAT then and that's why such discussions only work after he retires.- Even a two time winner can’t control the race!! That’s what makes this the best monument of them all. It was beautiful to watch. Kudos to Tadej in showing resilience and determination to win.
- Yep Rez I thought Pidcock was going to get Pog in the sprint. Pog shut him off and a wee exceleration (lol is that the correct use of that word?) and Pidcock having to come the long way round and was beaten
- Agreed but that was Pidcock's error - not to switch out sooner. It's clear he was closing down Pogacar rapidly in the final meters.
- Now that made me laugh lol. The guy with 6080 likes dropping a bomb on my website. You don't have to be here you know.
- The fool Mistermaumau can argue with that. He thinks he's a philosopher... but he's only a BS'er.
- Did I promise you that Pogi will be at a new level a month ago, on a level never seen before? And did I lie to you? Santa Maria record, Cipressa record only with the help of Mcnulty after the fall? Oh fvck, this is GOAT stuff.
