- Remco has always looked sharp for 1st 10 stages, it is what happens in the 3rd mountain stage where he collapses.
- Yes
Weather experts predict the Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT) during Stage 4 of the Tour de France could reach peaks between 30° C and 33° C. The index calculates heat stress by measuring ambient temperature, humidity, wind, and solar radiation. This stage falls into the UCI’s "Red Zone" (extreme high risk) because it exceeds 28° C
- I should point out that the world cup is going beautifully in the USA and nobody is hating it. Trump may be an idiot, but he is our problem, not yours. And regarding Israeli behavior, explain to us how Europe made the creation of modern Isreali state a necessity?? I thought so.
- Not bad at all for what is considered his weak point. With him being in the leanest condition ever, he should really excel in the high mountains when the gc contenders are isolated.
- Y A W N. How old are you? You sound like a teenage girl in the midst of her first true love crush. Are younot embarrassed by your public infatuation with Pogi? Not surprising you keep hiding a new alias every time you get banned, must be so tiring.
- > UAE have three riders inside the top five overall, with Pogacar leading, Del Toro fourth and Ayuso fifth
Ah, yes. Ayuso may have donned a different team jersey, but he never left UAE. UAE is in his heart no matter where he goes.
- Well, as I already said in reply to you, he's not riding for GC this tour so he's probably intentionally shipping some time so he can get in the breaks.
- For once I agree with you. That 'You like the glory, don't you' line would have been derided in any other sport. And as Pog said, every rider dreams of that. Jonas seemed to enjoy being feted in Denmark after his Tour wins, and why shouldn't he. Top athletes shouldn't be shamed for that.
- More likely dreaming of retirement now!
- What about Pogi's interview yesterday, after the race. The BS french interviewer right after the finish asking Pogi: "you're hungry?" and "do you like the glory?" to which Pogi replied: "I want to go ride the rollers now"... translation: "GFY" ("Go f* yourself").
The problem with the french journalist is, Pogi isn't like Lance; he is well-liked by the peloton. So they don't have the juicy story to tell. The french TdF media just want to make up a conspiracy theory. I'm tired of reading/listening to stupid interviews. Why don't they ask something more substantial? It's a race. The goal of racing is winning. Whether it's a stage, the overall, the sprint or whatever. Suddenly, when Pogi wins a stage, he commits a mortal sin. As a fan, I want to see the best rider wipe out everyone. It's up to his rival to make him earn every single win. Maybe they need to start making themselves more versatile instead of just focusing on losing weight and having boring races.
This is partly the reason why Pogi looked so annoyed last year in the final week. He was sick, hurt his knee and on top of all that the media were asking him these dumb questions daily. How many times does he have to tell you that he's being payed to win races and he's obligated to finish off the work of the whole team. After his team worked for 100km in this stage what exactly is he supposed to do? Roll over and say: "well, you guys can have this win, I'm just gonna chill here." Idiots...
