I guess everyone had the same conditions. If you do not feel sure cornering, then you can just break. Good technique is a part of racing skillset.05:57

As much as I admire his chatacter and the resilience that forged his way into cycling, I believe he should've end his cycling career after 2024 vuelta, because it's hard for me to see any more big results from him at the moment.16-08-2026 12:01

I've told that before: salary cap is not sustainable. If you try to somehow impose it by controlling contracts, the companies behind teams would simply make a workaround by eg establishing some company under the cyclist's name to found him or just send the money to his family. That is 100% impossible in XXI capitalists world, unless you'd try to make North Korea.28-07-2026 19:22

How could he ride for "NSN Cycling Team" a few years ago, when that team was just created in 2026?! Is it too much of a pain for you, dear autor, to use the name of a former holder of its World Tour license that was Israel?02-07-2026 06:10

I also believe the cashiers should earn the same as IT specialists, cause both parties sacrifice 8h daily for work. And handball players should have the same salary as football players, cause they train as much. What a total bulls*it of thinking. Viewing power generates revenue, not politics. How much brain fu*ked one needs to be to not understand this simple fact.01-05-2026 04:06

I agree with the first part. But waiting for Remco is total bulls**t, as Matthieu would have saved more energy just sucking Tadej's wheel all the way to the finish line and then sprint only against him. Waiting for Remco he would have smaller rider to follow (less freewheeling), need to give turns, must close the gap to Tadej and battle 2 riders at the line instead of one. The only viable tactics for the big four was to let Pogi ride solo 80 km from home and then chase him down by cooperating with each other.08-04-2026 06:40

It wasn't Bruyneel who was just a week ago telling everyone MVDV is the strongest ever and would probably drop Pogi on Poggio? Be consistent Mr Expert...28-03-2026 12:49

You mean the long stage to Castelfidardo in 2021? Everyone was fighting for their life there and it was noone else than Pogi that only managed to come close to Matthieu at the end. Do not forget those was prime Mvdp who demolished everyone including Tadej (reigning tdf winner at that time) on the steepest sections. Today Matthieu may have more stamina and pedigree for fast&furious races like Roubaix, but he's nowhere near his power to weight peak.28-03-2026 08:26

I believe the culprit of the whole drama was Dewulf that made one turn just before catching Mvdp and then he missee thd next one. Another rider had read it like lack of collaboration (forgeting dewulf was spent and sucked wheel the last 30km) and the whole group work stopped there. If dewulf did not make any turns, they would catch mvdp.28-03-2026 08:17
