The question is, why was he weak? The answer, he was following all the moves himself, quite a few times because he was isolated with no teammates. If he has teammates deeper into the stages, he doesn't need to cover attacks. If he doesn't have to cover attacks, he won't crack. This is all simple stuff, especially for folks who actually watch all the stages.

This is easy math. Tadej races more single day races. Discrepancy solved.

I agree. Jonas is TdF or bust, and that's boring especially when your chief competitor lines up for every race known to man. Tadej has gone on record saying he wants to win other races more than another Tour at this point of his career.

Visma is so unlikeable. I feel like these comments were classless. I've heard nothing but admiration from UAE/Tadej as it relates to Jonas. It's a shame because I love Wout and Matteo but you just can't root for this lab project of a team. Also, I don't think Visma's team is nearly as strong as the '22 and '23 teams. I think what Wout did in the mountains in '22 was honestly more impressive than what Jonas was able to do. Wout was simply on another level and the collective team had Tadej isolated way too often. I don't expect that will happen again. Hell, UAE needs to bring Del Torro at this point who could neutralize attacks from Jorgenson. Visma would like to pretend that Tour is one extended time trail, going solo up long mountain climbs but it isn't. Jonas may have great numbers in a lab but without the best team, he is just a great climber, and that won't be enough to beat Tadej in the actual race.
