- Hahaha, it's okay for fans to expect, but the athlete doesn't need to comply with expectation. It's good that Vingo stands his ground. Otherwise, he'll be crushed under expectation like Wout did earlier in the spring. I kind of enjoy current generation of cyclists because they know what is important outside of cycling. That keep them grounded, unlike the previous generation which wasn't too unfriendly with each other off the bike.
- Yeah, people, full of expectations, but what are THEY providing? And do THEY live up to others’? Seems part of modern cowardice, if you can’t take out your frustrations in your own life on those you consider responsible, start hitting on someone completely innocent.
- Neither is his centre of gravity, seems he often overestimates how far he can lean forward.
- I think it is because outliers like Tadej and Remco buck the trend. They can ride one day race and GC well and people start to compare and expect the same thing of him, which is understandable.
- Matthew - ITS NOT A LAMBORGHINI 😁
- Amongst several other dubious actions. Still, great for all those passive retirement « investors » in arms manufacturers who can’t (mainly because they don’t want to) see the links. This is my main reason for not cheering on someone like Tadej, who just line the Ronaldos and Benzemas of this world are all to happy to have their (sleeping) conscience bought out.
- Some people are just mature and stubborn enough to stay within their personal limits despite outside pressure, when you don’t, you end up like Senna, is that what spectators want to provoke with their « demands » on athletes?
- Nobody ever complained about Froome doing nothing but stage races once he realised he’d NEVER get a result in one-day stuff? Why the different standards?
- Has he ever unfairly blamed anyone for his own crashes?
- I have no idea how the points are weighted but hopefully it’s somehow fair and in that case I guess the reason is because 1. Some races are worth more points, 2. You also get points when you don’t win. Maybe MVDP won something in 2014 (or did you mistype?) but his real wins only started in 2019..
