Juan Ayuso abandons Tour de France - Covid-19 positive and lack of legs lead to bad news for Tadej Pogacar team
Cycling
leader for the Vuelta? next.. looks like he doesn't like to work for the team...
Not sure this makes much difference to Pogi as Ayuso hadn’t been much use so far. Possibly he could have been a sacrificial lamb in the break. But not clear he had the legs for that. As said earlier they would have been better with Maika or else another rouleur
I said it often, I'll say it in closing: UAE should have sent Rafal Majka instead of Ayuso.
I agree
At least he would have been a more loyal rider to Pogi than Juan Ayuso was or ever came to be
I suspect UAE is having some buyer's remorse with Ayuso. He doesn't have the goods to win one of the big races, and he refuses to help the team win the big races with another leader.
Yes agree. Does his job, doesn't give off haughty airs. Doesn't have personal ambition. Gives all for leader
Why was he allowed to continue with covid. He could infect the other members of the team
Just in

- I tend to agree and in many cases that can be attributed to the way pressure works on a person’s mind, not sure everyone can overcome that if they suffer from it because it’s not impossible that it has to do with the cocktail f chemicals released for the event. How to tweak adrenaline (and other useful secretions) release, that’s probably something being worked on quietly.Mistermaumau25-04-2025

- I guess it does but skill and physical performance are probably too different to find a common criteria explaining it and why this is so much more noticeable in cycling than in running, swimming, rowing, biathlon and other similarly trained endurance sports.Mistermaumau25-04-2025
