- I think Remco is trying to save face after having come out empty handed from Catalunya. Having said that, this is probably going to be one hell of a race because Wout is definitely in great shape and will do anything to win this race while healthy. I don't think teams will change tactics just because he'll be taking part, though.
- If Pogi wins on Sunday and they ask him in a few years who he beat at Flanders, imagine the names he'll list: MVDP, Van Aert, Mads Pedersen, Remco Evenepoel and Ganna. When they ask Jonas 🐟 he'll answer: Lenny "47kg" Martinez and Georg "absolute amateur" Stainhauser. It's all clear to you who's who. Who is the Goat... and who is the clown. 🤡
- So Jonas is doing great? OK, we'll see at the Tour. But it's bad news for Remco. Two years ago only Pogi and Jonas were better than Remco, when it came to the mountains. Now we have at least two more, Seixas and Del Toro... and maybe even Pelizzari. The fools from Bora Red Bull must be banging their heads into a brick wall: "We're so fvckin' stupid. Remco will never again win a GT, and we paid millions for him. For what, to be a domestique and a ITT champion? May Jesus the Lord forgive us."
- The fact that he still got a win at La Vuelta, 2 2nd places at the Tour, a triumph at the Tour de Pologne and at the Algarvia, and 2nd at the Dauphiné while still recovering shows his class
- It's not been changed at the whim, it's just like Pogačar's debut at Paris-Roubaix last year. The plan was always there, and it was always that dependant on how he recovers from Catalunya. While his climbing form is questionable (certainly not as bad as at the UAE) it's enough for Flanders, and as he showed on stage 1 and stage 7 his punch is there (last year he didn't have the punch), and his engine is obviously there too.
- Do you know what the fundamental difference is between Pogi and Jonas? Pogi is the first to be happy that Remco will compete in Flanders. He's a fan of that decision because he wants the best guys at Flanders. But Jonas on the other hand just wants to collect trophies against Lenny Martinez and Damiano Caruso. What a big difference in honesty and character between Pogi and Vinni.
Remco doesn't need to be afraid that Pogi will sit on his wheel at Flanders like Jonas did in Catalunya. It's much more comfortable when you don't have a stalker on your back wheel the whole time. I want to see MVDP, Remco, Van Aert, Mads Pedersen and Pogi together after the 2. Kwaremont. It will be a cycling festival, and may the best man win.
- This is just stupid. Either focus on TT, Ardennes or stage races. This year the focus is TDF remain focused on that. Plans shouldn't be changed in a whim. Adding cobbles is unnecessary till you get exp in the lesser cobble races. Do it next year with a better plan
- That Itzulia crash was a big deal...
- "But the main reason Evenepoel joined this team is because he wants to race Tadej Pogacar at the Tour de France and try to beat him."
What nonsense, Remco can't even make it to the podium.
First he has to finish, and then he has to be better than Jonas, Florian...
- If the plan was already no to participate then dont. He will not be good on cobbles by the get go like Pogi.
