  sore loser? Have you listened to the guy? If he won everything, he'd be bored. Losing motivates him, and he pushes forward with frustration and desire. It's what makes him so fascinating - he gets mad, and no matter what the race (a Tour winner trying Paris Roubaix? hasn't really happened since the 80s? whatever!), he's there. That's not a sore loser, that's a competitive loser.

  It's his team that is worse. If UAE didn't complain so much then Pogačar's words here would not be negative at all. Gianetti's praise of Wout was only a stepping stone to the usual complaints. Then Morgado did his flat tyre sprint wail. After that Bjerg did his moaning about other teams pushing the pace during the puncture. And then Pollit lamented about how everything was going perfectly... and Vermeersch was all about the radio. And now Pogačar with his complaints on the bike. When one team collectively does this it is worse than the greater actions of one rider. UAE being sore losers here is worse than Evenepoel's behavior at the Worlds.

  Maybe next time he can just jog instead of taking the "crappy" bike.

  No bike is going to be close to his fitted bike. But better wheels for cobbles is a must.

  I'm assuming he means the head tube angle was slacker than he's used to. but in that case a wheel barrow should have handled better on the cobbles than his colanago did lol. he was slipping all over the place, almost ran into wout a few times. what a sore loser he and his team are.

  seriously, his team car blocked the back 1/2 of the peloton for over a minute according to some of the riders.

  I think Pogačar can definitely break the record of 19 monuments, and probably before he's 30. But he's got 4 Giri, 1 Tour and 1 Vuelta to match Merckx there. He can probably do the latter two this year. If I were Pogačar, I would win the 2026 Tour and Vuelta, then do the same for the 2027 Giro and Vuelta. After that, no more Tours and just the Giro-Vuelta double every year thereafter. Should he win every grand tour he tries like that, he can be the outright record holder for all three Grand Tours by 2031 (when he'll be 32/33). I don't expect him to win them all, and doing that program every year is very strenous, but I think it is possible for him to achieve that before he retires (assuming he retires at 36)

  It’s an emergency, it’s optional AND, it’s the same for EVERYONE, zero point in mention in it.
