  BS. Actual Lidl-Trek fans will be excited about this as the team gets another strong rider and all around nice guy.

  a lot of Lidl-Trek fans are hoping the rumours are wrong about joining them. let his past team and team mates down imo. let him go and live in Gaza.

  I believe that if anyone can do it, Captain MAGA can!

  The thing is that MvdP can be beaten in a sprint as Asgreen has shown in RVV for example. MvdP is almost unbeatable if the sprint is short, ie less than 200m and his opponents know that and will try to make it a long sprint. He used that to his advantage in MSR 2025 because he didn't wait for one of the others to start the sprint in order to make it a long one but started the sprint himself to catch them by surprise and it worked. That is called smart tactics.

  This article is sickening. Wout is a stalwart of the team and gives his all for them. The headline is so bad. This injury isn’t good for anyone. Horrible.

  I reckon if he shaved his head, he could save about 50W lol...

  I’m not sure I’d call taking advantage of unexpected situations tactics because if they don’t occur your tactic is useless. That said, I’m pretty sure, MVDP could have bridged across without Ganna too. I think Nibali’s analysis is completely irrelevant, the only deciding criteria under normal circumstances is topography, TP will usually win when there’s enough climbing and won’t when there isn’t. Both require a version of strength so no idea what he’s on about.

  Yes, he used Ganna to bridge across. That’s called TACTICS.

  MvdP wouldn't drop a single meter if Ganna wasn't there. He just used him and when Ganna started fading he jumped on Pogacar's wheel

  Bora sounds like an exciting team, right now. And I wish Roglic all the luck in winning again. Between him and that other guy, Slovenia has been doing pretty well at the Grand Tours, sure, but it’s Roglic who started it.
