Jonas Vingegaard comes second in Arsinal despite "not having his very best day"
CyclingTuesday, 29 August 2023 at 02:30
Jonas Vingegaard missed out on the victory in Arinsal. The Dane had to bow down before Remco Evenepoel who was faster in the uphill sprint, but afterwards spoke about a lesser day.
"I didn't have my best day. That's part of it. You can't have the best possible legs day in and day out," the Tour de France winner opens up on his team's website. "Partly because of that, I can live with second place. As said, Remco is the deserved winner."
Because of his second place, Vingegaard is in fourth place in the general classification. His gap to Evenepoel is 31 seconds. "I think I got the most out of it for myself. In addition, we also showed our best side as a team today."

- You continue to platform these two cheats. With that in mind I can no longer use your site. I know my leaving means little, but, sometimes you have to take a stand. See ya!DJ21-12-2024
- Look at what Froome’s won since his last TdF, stop denying there is still more than possible one outcome to the future.Mistermaumau21-12-2024

- Exactly. Remco won 3 WT races/stages last year compared to Pogocar's 19. Remco's single stage win in last years TdF earned him a meager 12 seconds over Pogocar who shellac'd him by 9 minutes in GC.Sweep21-12-2024
- Fortunately and as you point out, more than one strategy is possible and worth trying and I’m sure all concerned riders are well informed and counselled on this subject and don’t need such basic personal advice through media from an outsider.Mistermaumau21-12-2024
- The main SPOTY award is "decided" by public vote but the BBC "expert panel" decide who you can choose from, that choice has an equal split of genders and is focussed on the sports BBC show and a disabled athlete. Oh yea the ubiquitous "Pub Games" candidate there too, Darts and Snooker are not sports. The other awards are decided by the "Expert Panel" again it's about the sports BBC show, cycling has had it. Cav got his for his years and achievements in the sport, not just that 35th TDF win. Unless the BBC get access to Pro Cycling it will never feature "adequately" on SPOTYslappers6621-12-2024

- Avoiding him is a good strategy, you get more wins and then you can compete in the TDF relatively relaxed. Pit yourself against Pogi and not only there will be no wins, it will be considerable mental setbackabstractengineer21-12-2024
