Heading into the finale of the men's road race at the 2023 Glasgow World Championships, Tadej Pogacar is still well in the mix for the Rainbow Jersey. With just under 27km to go the Slovenian took a bottle, but just who was it that gave it to him?
GCN commentators Sean Kelly and Adam Blythe immediately posed the question, was that Pogacar's fellow Slovenian, Grand Tour-winning superstar, Primoz Roglic? Take a look at the image below and let us know what you think!

UltimateOpportunist27-06-2025 - It's great to see that the UCI are right on top of these things.santiagobenites27-06-2025
- They're often referred to as bike fitting specialists, Mau.. Just Google "bike fitting" and you'll find the basic things you need to consider. In general, shorter cranks allows you to spin the pedals better (higher cadence, ala Tadej), at the expense of torque (like when you stand on the pedals, ala Jonas). It allows the bike geometry to be altered such that the rider is closer to the ground (more aero) because the bike's bottom bracket can be set lower to the ground. Just my 2-cents worth.FredMan27-06-2025
- What a really dumb question, 8 days before the TDF. Did he think XDS Astana team would be only 3 riders. Really have to wonder about some people.
Senna196027-06-2025 - Please give feedback if you do, Not sure what they’re officially called as I’ve never been to one but to anyone who’s been to any of these specialist bike posture outfits that claim to optimise your position and bike for you, did any of them do any testing with varying crank lengths? Never heard any such feedback from people I listened to.Mistermaumau26-06-2025
- Your answer wasn’t stupid, it was just unnecessarily vulgar that’s all, especially given that in an article practically devoid of text it said starting list 3 times with your preliminary almost hidden in a long list of repeated names not many would bother to look at. Hope you pay as much attention to the small print of your insurance policy and the like, they may not be as vulgar in answering but, well, one day you’ll remember this ;-)Mistermaumau26-06-2025
There's no way it is but sure looks a whole lot like him!
No its not, he would be training for the Vuelta
Not saying it's him but having a day off is part of training and I could see this being a fun thing for him to do.
