Tadej Pogacar dominated last
week’s Critérium du Dauphiné, storming to three stage wins and the overall
title in emphatic and ominous style. But amid the fireworks and effortless win,
the Slovenian still found time to make a young fan’s day.
In a moment captured on video,
Pogacar handed his sunglasses to a child in the crowd, in doing so making the
young fan’s day. It’s not the first time the Slovenian has done something like
this, and it was a reminder that his popularity stems not just from his legs,
but from his attitude.
With just over two weeks to go
before the start of the 2025 Tour de France on July 5th, Pogacar has returned
to training as he aims to capture his fourth yellow jersey. If his Dauphiné
form, and composure, is anything to go by, he’ll arrive in France as the man to
beat, and its up to Jonas Vingegaard and Remco Evenepoel to catch up, and fast…
One more beautiful moment from the Dauphine… Pogi giving his glasses to young kid. 🥰

- Danish... When his compatriot went from being a complete unknown to being the best climber in the world, a very average (bad) time-trialist to perform the best time trial in history, a growth achieved in about one year (improving... what? 90%?)... what did this great expert say? Tadej was progressing from the age of 18-19 until now, it was not a leap from one year to the next. I really believe that the cycling NOW is as clean as OTHER SPORTS, but if I HAVE TO suspect about doping, I'd suspect of unexpected big jump and not about one that is a phenomenon from his adolescence.
maria2024202412-07-2025 - they want to tire Tadej, but Jonas is sprinting alongside him. isn't he tiring himself out too?mij12-07-2025
- Jonas is playing the long game??? he tracks every move like a dog chasing his tail. he seems desperate, not to be playing the long game.mij12-07-2025
- He's getting paid a LOT of money to stay in the race and do his job. Which he will.bobo12-07-2025
- Talk is cheap Sepp! Let's see you step up since you haven't done a thing since your Vuelta gifted win!frieders312-07-2025
- Not sure what gap he is talking about as he was always behind Tadeg during the whole sprint!frieders312-07-2025
- He's not wrong! Wout again was a no-show for the 7th stage that should have seen him in the final group!frieders312-07-2025
- Almeida is the strongest helper, then Jorgensen. Kuss and 2Yates arent there yet. If Almeida is gone then Visma have advantageabstractengineer12-07-2025
- Hope is not a strategyJakob12-07-2025
- Team sport it is. And UAE losing so many people to covid protocols in ‘22 was a major reason that Pogacar was exposed and Jumbo Visma could play him like they did. Let’s Hope Almeida can make it through the weekend and be able to help in the mountains. And Narvaez? One of the unsung heroes of the team.RidesHills12-07-2025
