- I feel like Lipo just has to sit back and let Remco make the case for why he (Lipo) should lead their TDF squad via fumbling mountain stages and crashing into.. and solid surface like Wile E Coyote.
- maybe remco shouldn't worry about jonas or pogi, better worry about lipo ...
- after he emptied the tank like that on friday, it seemed very unlikely he’d be fully recovered by sunday’s flanders fields. he’s human. he does get drained and it takes him time to recover. in this he’s very different from pog, who is never tired, never depleted, never less than 110%.
- sure but he was riding for Jasper and said he had more to give.
- Sorry but you’re out of order there.
Much as it is easy and understandable to criticise him, his palmarès is different but just as impressive especially for someone 10 years behind for the total, also a proven champion.
If you consider GTs and discount Tadej and Jonas the results are not so different, you forget most of Primoz’ good GTs results also came in their absence.
On the contrary, it is interesting to compare and will become more interesting.
- You can’t compare Remco and Roglic… Rolic is proven champ (5 GTs, almost all WT stage races except tour and Swiss, Olympic to gold…) and Remco is expensive domestic
- Somebody must tell Evenepoel that he is not Tadej and this is not a one day race. He needs to be good in the mountains and TTs. Crosswinds and flats forget it. He is crash prone.
- Mercx was doper… compare him with Lance or other dopers (or with Pogi if he fail doping test) but not with clean athletes.
- Gaslighting Jonas for riding defensively in order to... DEFEND his lead. lol nice...
The rather innocuous crash must have felt like insult to injury for Remco, as it really seems to have riled him up. Perhaps he needs to get some mental toughness training - everything else is going for him but just seems to be missing some patience and tactical nous.
