So much so because teams work hard for their leaders to win, and because nowadays we're having dominant figures such as
Tadej Pogacar, Primoz Roglic, Jonas Vingegaard and Remco Evenepoel who can win on multiple terrains. Except for Vingegaard, the other three also pack a sprint strong enough to beat almost any climber in the peloton - something the best climbers in the world did not usually have in the past.
“In the past, people would have been saying, ‘What’s Pogačar doing up there risking everything in the sprint?’ but nowadays it’s not like that because the world of cycling has changed,” the Italian veteran argues. “I like this cycling, and I’m an old guy who’s been through everything and a bit more.”
