- I would say that the boring racing tactics are countered by the fact that it's Pogačar, and he attracts much attention regardless of the race.
But cycling in Britain is shite and it's not going to get any better with Farage. We have to hope for Burnham
- I find his silence infinitely more articulate.
- They do in deed. Look at the state of cycling in Britain. Teams folding and no pro teams due to lack of sponsorship. Companies are less likely to be involved when focus in on a limited number of teams. Unfortunately TP has extremely limited competition. I can see the time in the near future when events ask UAE not to send Pogacar to increase competition.
- Ahem, you're saying that Adam Yates, Santiago Buitraigo, Jay Vine or Marc Soler would've been the ones to beat Vingegaard? None of them are even capable of top 10 GC.
- We've still got two more GTs to enjoy the Rubio chaos. Including the Tour de France, where both will get chances in the breakaway (rubs hands). Although Juan Ayuso will need Giulio Ciccone's support I doubt he'll get much. And after Cian Uijtdebroeks falls out of GC Rubio gets more opportunities up the road.
- Red Bull-BORA-hansgrohe really have a gem in their hands with that 19-year-old Alessio Magagnotti. Unlike his peer Paul Seixas (who is 4 months older), Magagnotti was actually racing in the U19 category last year. To show the level that he has shown is nothing short of impressive.
- Yip, not many if any of todays top riders win track races like Eddy Merckx used to.
- Really, do the viewer numbers reflect that then? Appeal is a very complicated thing to define, like taste.
Crap burgers and coke appeal to a good number of people.
- Unfortunately every grand tour, bar last years Giro, has been the same for the past few years. Cyclings grand tours appeal has dipped due to the dominance of Pogacar.
- Really good comment re where Vin is compared to his rivals for the upcoming TDF. The Giro and no disrespect intended has not been up to usual standard with little opposition to Vin after quite a few rivals left after stage 2. It has been missing the excitement of a grsnd tour . You have worked out result before stage finished in the mountains .Vin has only been racing against older riders passed their prine or 2nd tier riders whilst others being kept back for the TDF .
