He's not a mountain goat but when setting his own pace like G does, and gaining time on TT, he can for sure do top 5. I predict he loses time on 1 big stage but creeps back up to 4th on GC.

Let’s be honest this years tour is already a done deal… Gonna be an anti climax thanks to jonas injury Next year 🙏

sure

sure it will easy no competition all the others had very bad crashers and to early to get them at 100%

His prep for the tour is far from optimal. He's not the natural climber like Vinegaard, so he's at a serious disadvantage. Maybe next year.

Tadej The G.O.A.T. At yhat point we have some interesting sportists from beautiful Slovenia: Pogačar, Dončić, slovenian football team

By amile. UAE as a team will rewrite the recordbooks.

Yep I was thinking the exact same thing as the commentator- no freaken hay bails on the dangerous turn.

Kuss earned that win. Just like Rogla and Ving earned their wins with his help. You don't attack your teammate in the leaders jersey, you support and protect.

Now it's his chance with Vingegård injured and still recovering 😂

How does this sport work? I live in us and nobody watches this.

"He" is running in the Windsor Castle Stakes,5.15 at Royal Ascot today

No....primoz....

Yes. My hopes are on that, because otherwise is going to be a boring TDF.

He is positive, we should expect him in the top 10 at the tour, if keeps a good spirit.

no--I don't think he'll be ready in time

some things in Remco's favor: Vingo might not race/bad form. Roglic doesn't quite know how to win Le Tour, plus Remco and him are about even. Pog has the Giro legs under him, but also he has the greatest "super vitamins" in the peloton. On paper Remco should finish second, but of course there are always the crashes and mechanicals that everybody will have to face...so in conclusion: nobody really knows where Remco will finish....and then there is Ineos with Carlos Rodriguez

For Remco to win a Tour there would need to be three time trials (a la Wiggins in 2012) and Vingegaard and Pogi would both need to either not be in the race or out of form/injured. He is the best time triallist in the world and a cracking one day racer but he's not Tour de France winning level for a three week race. I don't think he would have won the Vuelta if Roglic hadn't crashed either.

a podium would be great result but realistically 4-10 is a must. Not sure he has good enough team 'Landa is good lieutenant. Not stacked like UAE who want to buy a win.

ahh... reminds me of the good times when everyone was saying in 22 and 23 that Tadej will win the Tour easy. It's been 2 years, give Jonas some respect mate

I dont get the hype about this guy for the past years. He gets hyped up like some sort of mega superstar and still he gets dropped by B-tier riders.

Tbh If I was Remco I would go for stage wins. Two TTs and one or two hill stages. There is too much competition for top 5. I do not think he can beat in GC anyone from group of Pog, Jonas, Roglic, Yates, Almeida, Jorgenson and Rodriguez....

Sounds like there are many people who lack self-confidence here in the comments section.

There is always new hope, since there is always new dope !

sounds like he's finally getting some humility

I think Jonas won the last two tours in part because of the strength of his team and their tactical plan which was built entirely around burning Pocajar. Tadej team the last couple of years ended up leaving him isolated at the front surround by Jumbo Visma riders with no support... Essentially it was Team Jumbo Visma vs. Tadej Pocajar. I think team UAE recognized this and is going into this years tour with a much stronger squad. Only problem is I don't think Vingegaard is up to the task this year so we have me waiting till next year to have a true showdown.

He’s just not a good climber

I think it's between himself and Jonas Vinagaard for the TDF.If Jonas isn't there or not @ his best it's all Remco. I kno sounds crazy right?

Couch commentary: He is a solid rider for sure but there are too many other riders that have GC capabilities and he just doesn't seem to have the climbing power. I believe he could be a great one day racer or focus on smaller stage races. Putting him up against some of the best climbers at this year's Tour will be a huge challenge. We can speculate all we want but the legs will show who's the man in a couple of weeks.

he has a chance to win! jonas just won't start, pog crashes early and takes yates with him, roglic crashes 4 times and remco wins by holding wheels and winning time trials!

I agree no need to panic. I don't see him making the podium

Get ready for what, 3rd place. No matter what shape he is in, he will never be able to compete with Tadej and Jonas at TDF. Unfortunately for him, right now there are two guys that are physically more talented than him. That’s just how it is.

Highly doubt Remco reaches top5

Remco can't climb will never win the tour

He won the ITT and did finish in the top ten of the GC, and people are talking like he could not even finish in the top fifty.... It wasn't bad at all, the question is maybe if some of you have realistic expectations ? Remco is very honest about the fact the Vingegaard, Pogacar and Roglic are stronger at this moment, and he aims a top five in the Tour, which is very well possible...

Incredible rider, could win every one day race, but I still don't have faith in Him on a the three week race, in particular with the two monsters

"Cracking completely at the Dauphiné" 😂😂😂 the guy is out of condition, wins the TT and ends up in the Top10 GC 😅

Nah!

I'm a big remco fan but he defo can't do any better than top 5. He should just lose time and hunt stages. Would be way more exciting to watch than just riding for top 10

Boring !! It is fantastic to watch him ride and compete he is awesome !!

Give him ALLLLL the drugs he needs to heal up ASAP! We need to see the two best go at it again! Otherwise, it will be a VERY easy win for Tadej.

His d.s reckons he's 1 to 1.5kg over his race weight----? I'm very curious to see if he can be up with the usual suspects in the tdf.

I am a big Remco Fan. But I dont think that he is the Born GC rider. He wont keep up over 3 weeks with Pogacar and Vingegaard

I'm not sure why remco or anyone else feels He has any shot at winning the Tour de France. I can't even envision him being on the podium Unless of course, there are crashes or illness that take out 10 other Top riders.

TT could be for Remco to take, not mointains.

Would love to see a Tour and Giro win for this outstanding young man; who knows, the triple grand tour sweep? Also, I remember reading that he is eying the World Championships as well. Likewise, hope that his rivals are getting healthier as well. I always hate seeing athletes go down in injury.

Just ban aero bars altogether. Do people realise what "innovations" have done to the bicycle? Bicycles used to be beautiful.

Neither him nor Primoz have a chance. I like Remco but he’s overrated.

2025 would be better

In 2023 Pog crashed at LBL and suffered wrist injury. This year Remco crashed harder and needed operation. Even though Pog won a stage, he suffered greatly while Ving rode away. "I am dead" said Pog while being towed up the mountain. Could Remco do better than Pog? Could Remco's body responded better? I don't think so. We may see Remco utters "I am dead" in his head while following Pog up a certain mountain.
