Info @Gazzetta_it - @rogla winner of Velo d'Or 2020 didn't received yet 'phisically' the trophy: was not possible in a year so influenced from Covid. This will happen tomorrow at @BEKINGevents in Montecarlo: @rogla finally will get his deserved award
3 years later, Primoz Roglic finally receives 2020 Velo d'Or trophy
CyclingSunday, 26 November 2023 at 10:30
Primoz Roglic has virtually every year been close to the top of the Velo d'Or over the most recent seasons, and in 2020 he was the winner of this prestigious award. However due to the Covid-19 pandemic he was not given the actual trophy, but that happens this Sunday.
It is a story that, like many during that period, appears rather unreal. Roglic won the Velo d'Or that season - having won the Vuelta a Espana and finished second at the Tour de France - but there wasn't a physical awards show. Hence his trophy was not delivered, and over the past 3 years the attribution never ended up taking place. That ends today however at the BEKING charity criterium that will take place in Monaco, as reported by Gazzetta dello Sport. Roglic will be taking to the start alongside other big stars such as Tadej Pogacar and Mark Cavendish.

- MVDP dominates this sport even more than Pogaçar dominates road racing. Also he can beat Tadej on the road quite regularly, the opposite is unlikely.Mistermaumau22-12-2024

- “During a TT, I am basically blind”. That was his quote after crashing into the barriers in a TT. The problem isn’t the UCI, radios or air bags. The problem is the riders and their teams.JoeyB22-12-2024
- I think you overestimate scientific knowledge and for sure the spreading of it. There are huge numbers of people in similar situations, if there were an easy solution somebody would be making big money out of it. Nerve pain can have many complex origins or be due to complex combinations of reasons. Even if you discover a reason there is not always a solution. Migraines haven’t been solved either. I have had lower back/hip nerve pains on and off for over 30 years, no kind of doctor has ever found a way to reduce, prevent or solve the problem. It may just be that some people are born with nerves that are too short or get twisted out of position during certain movements.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
- Amazing ride by her and very promising for her future. On a side note, it’s a bit worrying all these wins riders have after emotional moments in their lives, someone will come up with emotional doping at some point. Maybe give them fake news just before a big race to get hormones pumping.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
