I believe if Roglic hadn't crashed so hard or if the whole Pelotón hadn't turfed it half a dozen times, I feel this would be a much closer GC. What seems to be a certainty is Pogacar is strong.

Would have loved to see how today would have gone if there hadn't been crashes in the early stages, and if the likes of Bernal and Landa (maybe even Remco) were here in form. Yes, Pogacar is dropping the field, but who is he actually dropping that's surprising? Given the race circumstances and all that's happened up to now, who do we expect to be able to compete with him? Before the tour, I (and every bookie) expected Roglic and Pogacar to be a level above the rest just like last year, with their closest rival being Thomas. Thomas looked out of sorts from stage 1, and crashed, and Carapaz was never really expected to be on the Pogacar/Roglic level IMHO, and he's had to work harder than Pogacar over the last few days, especially yesterday. Also have to factor in that Pogacar hasn't crashed (as far as I know). Looking at all of that, his performance isn't that unexpected, even though it is amazing. It's also only stage 8.... I'm having flash backs of the 2018 Giro where Yates dominated everyone for 18 days, and then mega-cracked and lost it all.

@ivanjulian2532 3 жыл бұрын

Pogacar reminds me of a young Bernard Hinault, back in the early days of Hinault's career when he was precociously talented across every discipline required to be a legendary professional road cyclist. After winning two TDF's in 78 and 79, A knee injury hampered Hinault's 1980 TDF campaign but it's OK.... he won Liège-Bastogne-Liège, the Giro and the World Championship instead. If Pogacar has a sense of history he'll try and replicate that, LOL. He certainly has the talent to do it.

And some people are saying that recovery science is better. I really hope Tadej Pogacar did this clean. But yeah, there’s always that sneaking suspicion, and it really stinks because i get excited watching live and i feel like a bit of a dummy afterwards cause there’s always a possibility that they did some chemical trick to get that performance.

Haven't seen a show or force and overwhelming superiority like this in the Tour since Armstrong and Contador. Which is why the doubts come in. You see that raw power, climbing a HC mountain on his heaviest gear. While you're admiring that live, on tv, an image of Lance Armstrong, Alberto Contador, Rasmussen and others pop into your head. Not because you suspect Pogacar. But because what you're seeing reminds you of something you already saw a few times. The brain makes a connection and now you're stuck with that thought.

I couldn't help thinking this dominant performance resembles that of Usain Bolt at track & field, or Phelps at swimming. Suspecting is the reasonable thing to do, but it could truly be that these are Future Level athletes. I'd like to emphasize that, among Pogacar set of skills, he's got the Cat-like ability not to fall down; something many (GC) riders seem to lack.

@mumofbrunodog 3 жыл бұрын

Yes and also he seems to be very astute in communicating with his (limited) team, measuring his racing and closing down attacks like he did today. Ineos tried to sneak in with UAE at one point (maybe Tao?) and he immediately put himself in front of them as if to say - NO - I’m in control. He seems very mature and confident.
