The only reason he caught Pogi is that Pogi didn't know Mas was chasing him and was taking it a little easy. Yes my friend, Mas surprised Pogi. Ad acta!!!

Your comment makes more sense than what the author of this article wrote. PS: Mas is one of the biggest record breakers in the history of cycling!!! Sarcasm Press

Joke of the last decade: "The 2026 Vuelta a España has come to a conclusion and Enric Mas has been able to do what only two other riders in the history of the sport have managed to: Win a Grand Tour where Tadej Pogacar was at the start." !?!? PS: ... ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ... One of the funniest jokes in cycling history, not because of Primož and Jonas ... ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ...

An excellent point, that Mas catching Pogačar on that steep goat track climb helped legitimize the win - had he just inherited the space and not passed Pogačar and not won the stage, I'd have far more questions. As it is, yes, sadly, a crash put him into the lead, but he earned the place to have taken that lead, and he defended it well when it mattered.

Weren't you staying away from these comment boards until Pogačar raced again?

The factor of the no-Pogacar, is another point of note, no one wins with Pogacar around or it's close.. I think their should be a rule, if Pogacar's in a race then his results should be ignored

Pity Kuss couldn’t find back his past performance except for one or two good stages. Makes you wonder how he ever managed to win it even if you ignore the others on the podium were restrained.

A bit of a whiner though. Attracts attention to himself and then complains people pay attention to him. You don’t usually achieve change by trying to force things through, and that’s when there’s more or less consensus it’s necessary or good. If you’re just doing it because it’s convenient for YOU or to go it alone against established ways, you’ve got no chance.
