  MvdP is more consistent and better than Wout - he won 9 (!) world champion titles (road, gravel and 7xCX).

  Pog will be under pressure to win six Tours. He wants Roubaix and MSR as well. Then the Vuelta to round it off. Oh and the Olympic road race in 2028. Those are his remaining goals.

  I think Pogi is a commodity of the UAE and if he has had enough, UEA will bring on Almeida and Del Toro. Almeida is a bit of a liability on winning races the hard way 🙈

  I think Pogi is a commodity of the UAE. He brings good PR to a suspicious country. If Pogi goes to pot, they'll bring on Del Toro or Almeida, although Almeida likes to win races the hard way with crashing, illness and bad positioning 🙈

  Are you his manager?

  And that it seems strange Jonas is said to officially be only 1cm shorter than Tadej. Look at the podium pic of the 3 standing on the same platform.

  Hey ccpivo, any credit for this one? That’s the things with calls, it’s just like with doing work, do nothing and you can’t get anything wrong.
• Mistermaumau28-07-2025
  Was it a call? Listen to his post race self-analysis and he basically agreed, still not feeling strong the day before, it was a matter of hoping especially as he/nobody knew how strong Tadej might still contest. I’m happy for him, last-minute redemption despite Tadej still interfering. Still, easy to say in retrospect, how about some courage to make calls or evaluations in advance yourself, or would getting your kind of reply something you can’t cope with?

  This is the most interesting aspect of the 2025 Tour, the sudden revelation of half a dozen young potential challengers to the two who are way above everyone else. They have very different profiles, some have only just started cycling, some have taken years to build up, some showed promise and went awol before returning (Healy was beating Remco back in 2017). If any of these guys make another jump, 2026 could be even more interesting.
