Pogi's hair already in peak form

Ganna staying with the group the whole climb... absolute unit.

Finally I get my daily dose of LR.

An interesting insight from my conversation with Jan Hirt: i was congratulating him for today because he and the team did great, ect. His response: "Thanks, but the hill was far too easy today" (for him to break away) I'm very looking forward to seeing him climbing a big hill :)

You might need to get that Taaramae IG compilation ready again for tommorow. He said himself you pay the man 100k and he will continue to destroy pelotons

Not many people realise that Pog is actually from Leeds

anyone who wants to see another amazing rein taaramae effort as climbing domestique queen stage 7 2017 tour de suisse, think stage finished in austria, absolutely gorgeous stage rein rode everyone off simon spilak , 2nd sparkling slovenien climber after brajkovic, before pog and rog but drops everyone on a climb with insane ramps, glaciers, tunnels, its stunning anyway spilak solos taaramae held onto 4th on stage hes a brute has been for while. Last year at Giro I was pulling for him on stage egan won and landa attacked. Especially in brutal conditions but any Taaramae is great in any. chapeau pour l'intermarche et bonne chance

1:14 #PeakyBlinderPogacar “enough is enough” 🤣🤣🤣

Love the "Guenther Steiner" accent @1.15, enough is enough now. Please use it more often.

Watched this race live on a KZfaq stream last night, Pogaçar looked like winning the whole way up the hill in my book. Also, Arabic commentary is exciting! I didn't understand a word but man do they get you hyped ☺️

20km at 5%.....dear lord my legs and lungs are screaming for mercy just at the thought of that!!!

"Ineos seem to be short of a light mountain domestique" Yeh fair play but apparently they have a 'heavy' mountain domestique in Ganna

Love the foreshadowing with Plapp's seemingly innocuous lack of tt bike becoming a crucial piece to the race.

Rein Taaramae has been fucking up climbs for his competition for nearly 15 years. That's a serious bike racer.

Thank you. Superb commentaries and editing!!

Very well done. Concise, entertaining, great narrative. 🙏

Tadej seems to be on another level than the rest of the tour. He looked like he was smiling as he sprinted at the end. Watching his career so far has felt like watching a young Tiger Woods or Wayne Gretzky. Hope he can continue to do as he has done.

Pog goes "yeah OK. I'm a gonna win now."

Great analysis! Good video. Thanks for your efforts. Keep up the good work.

What a stage and a video👍

Supportive comment here to bump the algorithms- Appreciate your work!

that accent was spot on mate "really laughed on that one" classic commentary love it!!!

Thank you for the great race highlights!

So i think we can all agree, what an absolute rider this joao almeida is

Thanks! Love that you discuss a couple of points in each stage. Gives me perspective (and sometimes I have actually figured it out before the pod!) Taaramäe and Hirt- I like this team and these guys. Hope they can take a stage soon. Ganna- always impressive. Plapp- he's a great investment for INEOS. Tom Doumulin- I really thought this would be easy for him. I hope he's building his form. I was hoping Masnada would be in the front group. Too early in the season? I liked this stage. Was that a smile on Yate's face when Tadej looked back? Thanks, LR!

LR, you sounded like a scouser ( Liverpool England ) with your "enough is enough" line. Love it.

Nice ride from Majka

Heard the name Impey and as a South African from Johannesburg, immediately realised he must be Tony's son. I've bought all my bikes over the years from Tony Impey's bikeshop. He is well-known within the cycling community in Jo'burg and probably SA. I had no idea his son was in the TDF. Awesome!

Slovenia is main force in cycling! Roglič and Pogačar are living legends!!!!

Ah at last. The soothing sound of a LR review.

As a Tommy D. fan, I was a bit sad to see him drop so early. Let’s hope he will be in form by the Giro!

Enjoying the thought bubbles in the thumbnails. Funny and I am sure IRL they are much more graphic.

I really like these analysis of races you do. Really helps people who are new to cycling (me included) to understand what is going on. Creating some order of chaos. It makes watching this sport all the more entertaining. Thanks for your hard work!

Great Thumbnail appreciated!

Great stuff, keep it up LR

Great summary

Pog makes it look like another day at work.

Luke Plapp...A Star is Born !

good job, they need to find a way to do this climb twice to make this stage worth watching

Have you noticed that Jan Hirt uses the same advanced aero hair sticking out of the helmet solution as Tadej Pogačar?

Love Kwiatokowski's look when Pog tells Berg to get after it.

IWG have been incredibly exciting so far this year 💥

Ganna is an absolute Monster

Is Pogacar the only one wearing a smart watch? For sure he's updating his twitter feed for lanterne rouge strategy when the car comes close.

Intermache hype

In the chat on the domestique of the year podcast, i commented that the super domestique role as we used to know it seems an outdated concept with the ever-increasing specialization going on. I don't think of Morkov as a domestique or Dani Martinez or Rohan Dennis or whoever might be playing a team role at any given moment. Maybe someone like Daniel Oss in that he follows his leader, but he's not "super" in the allround sense. I thought the nearest thing was Joao Almeida, one of the best allround climby rouly boys, but not quite at the top level in anything to really threaten a stacked grand tour field. He's an excellent diesel climber but without the change of pace at the end of a brutal climb; but he's enough of a threat with his TT skills to threaten a top five, so you have to mark his decoy attacks. To be a super-dom you need a super leader, he's an excellent pickup by UAE and it's a great move for him as well as Pog. PS Are Intermarché the new EF? I'm loving their style.

Vlasov looks good in Bora kit

What a beautiful sport

Laughing at Yates smiling at Pogacar, mid sprint when he looks back.

Glad to see you getting your subscriber numbers up. You definitely deserve to have a lot more of them than you do. Hang in there! You’ll get them.

Thanks

is intermarche wanty gobert the new team sky?

The graphics on the new Ineos kit make it look like they've been through the laundry a thousand times.

My man Sean Quinn on the thumbnail! Keep an eye out for him

Styled way how this new UAE squad rolled up. Great team work in my opinion!

UAE got some good coaches!

Brutal

Brilliant thumbnail and tekst

Any info on wind direction…guess it was a slight/medium headwind

man its so crazy how just random stuff can take you out - fan of Cavendish - cycling is so risky!!

Que the Benny Hill music as I watch Cav hit the ground. Pure gold.

the thumbnail is s gold this time hahahaha

Need to hear Berwick’s thinking behind the no glasses look, they add watts! 😂

0:34 Cav's steering head has come loose - his front wheel is detached from the bars. I rebuilt a bike and didn't tighten the stem enough. The front wheel is doing its own thing.

Kid has Covid 3 weeks ago... The only questions left are which Monuments he wins and how big his winning margin is at the TdF.

Will Powless be able to climb with the big boys in the end. Is the podium possible?

What are the bags under the saddle?

Almeida is funny on these climbs, you think he has blown up, been distanced, day over, then 2k later...

Wout would have been a contender on that climb for certain.

I gotta ask, how do you speak so fluidly for the entirety of the video? There are literally no breaks in your speaking cadence.

Hi, nice work, man. Just a quick correction : It's Intermarché Groupe Gobert Matériaux and not Matérieux. You're welcome 😉

Pog is a machine

LT & Benji forever, you make the season more exciting!!

damn looked like they were all having an hilarious time, despite the suffering

Filippo Gangsta.

They're gonna turn Plapp into Geraint aren't they smh

ganna 473 watts for 30 minutes starting at 4:33 into ride;; (Max 801w Watts/kg 5.5w/kg NP® 477w xPower 474w Sea Power 489w)

man! they pedal grand tour like playing video games

0:14 - Wait, there's a team called Barmy Army?!

Did that look like a 3 second gap to you?

Pogacar from Yorkshire?

damn, cav has been really unlucky with crashes.

Pogacar. Vs Adam yates 🤔🤔

What did EF think they were doing on the front before UAE decided to ruin their ride?

Ganna is well on his way to GC contender, I'd say he wins the TdF in 2025

Always jealous of road surface is hot countries. Looks so beautiful and smooth. Not like here in the (French) Alps. 😢

Is putting both hands in the air on the finish line forbidden now? I haven't seen it lately

The footage is sped up slightly right?

That's a pretty decent head knock for Cab, not so sure he should be allowed to continue 'no worries'

Cav is falling way too often. He always did but now its proper hard fall in every race. I guess he needs some race acclimatization.

It’s not even fair when this guys in he race🤷🏽‍♂️

Didn’t ow Tadej was a Scouser 🙂

whos da man!

I'd be at the bottom calling a taxi

Coucou 🧡💚

Pogacar with that good doping

#POGI

I know he gonna win when his hair pokes out of his helmet.

Yates needs to be more aggressive. He's waiting around too much.

0:41 hey, the cyclist who is still lying on the ground above the white line... was he okay? Because when he fell he hit his head quite hard and then you can see him still lying there without getting up or anything... And on top of that, the person who is there with the vest doesn't seem very worried about him
