The real problem is just how big the gap is between the top riders and the next tier, regardless of race type. Pogi is in his own class, best at both one-day races and GT GC. MVDP is a very close second in one-day races. Maybe you can squint and consider Remco a threat in the one-days, but really he's just chasing these two. Then...there's everyone else, chasing for scraps. Jonas is easily the second best GT GC rider, but he's a tier below Pogi. And the next best GC riders are similarly a tier below Jonas. Seixas is demonstrating that he MAY become something like Pogi, certainly his trajectory is crazy right now. But then after that, both for the classics and GTs, everyone else is just way below these guys. So I think the only reason the one-days appear more competitive is because Pogi and MVDP race each other in all of the Monuments...but look at who has won pretty much every Monument since 2024, and apart from Jasper in MSR and Wout in PR (both easily the most unpredictable parcours), it's one of those two. Is that actually competitive?

Remco as super-domestique for Lipowitz and stage-hunting puncheur seems to make the most sense to me…the question is if he would be all in.

Great to see him back on a bike and in very good form. His injury was so disappointing, especially considering how strong he looked in the beginning of the season.

MVDP is always so fun to watch race. This year his performance at Paris-Roubaix despite the mechanicals was incredible…just full-on power and smart tactics keeping the chasing group organized. Then on top of it all he is a class act, able to recognize and celebrate the achievements of his peers.
