Hes perfect fit with wellens and sivakov great mix. Wonderful team mcnulty would be great too but soler does have his days and really rides great for tadej unlike other situations hes been in they seem like good friends which is priceless for l'avenir winnnig rider.
      If ayuso gets sorted thats a lethal team as yates on steeps is natural and almeida, ayuso have quality to get over top in reduced bunch and pull with tadej on some of these stages. Potentially best team ive seen but ayuso needs to get in line for it to truly be a team.

    I love both these riders. I can’t believe how well Jonas has recovered, it’s truly incredible. Barring illness or injury Pog should take it this year. Jonas can’t spend a couple of weeks in the ICU, more than a month off the bike and not be impacted in the later stages of a grand tour. It’s just not humanly possible.

      No guarantees that back to back grand tours with a covid case in between for Pog wont catch up to him in the 3rd week either.
      I expect him to endure this tour better than Jonas, but it's 90/10, not 100/0 for Pog in my opinion.
      Either way, you're absolutely correct. Jonas only losing 7 seconds on the climb itself after spending 10 days with a tube in his lung 10 weeks ago is in some ways the most impressive performance of the season so far, even if it wasn't a win.

      Pogi went really late with 800m to to go he dropped jonas with about 500m to go maybe less he started dropping pretty quick at that point instead of holding it stable
      But more importantly this is his terain not pogi his terein galibier long climb after a full day of continuous climbing at altitude too
      Till today Jonas was the one dropping pogacar at altitude that was his weakspot
      It seems a bit less of a weakspot now
      But ofcourse the tour is still long and two grandtours might catch up in week 3
      Lets hope for an exciting race

I've said it for multiple times the San Luca attack told us nothing, but people were all too eager to hype and scream ''HE'S BACK''. This was always going to show us how things really stand. Vingegaard lost the wheel within a kilometer and lost 20secs on the descent. Clearly, he's not in great shape. He lost 50 secs on this stage and there's an ITT coming where he's bound to lose at least half a minute more. That's not a great place to be, mentaly or on the GC, going into second&third week of the Tour against the strongest Pog with the strongest team we've ever seen. And no, Vingegaard doesn't ''just get better'' in the third week. He was always better because of his preparations and his planned late peaking. However, with lackluster preparations and coming from severe injuries he's more likely to crack in the third week, or even sooner.

      The real story is, this was probably the easiest mountain stage of the tour and normaly there shouldnt be any gap between the best GC riders. But UAE actually dropped team captains while 4 of them were still in the top group. Pogacar attack like 1 km from the top because of heavy winds and still won 35 seconds on his rivals at the end.
      What will happen on stage 14 when UAE isolates all the captains on the first moutain and they have to ride the last 60 km and two more mountains without any helpers?

      Completely different scenarios. Tadej was going into stage 6 with a minute lost against Jonas previous stage and still only got 24sec and had to attack next ten stages. Now he has 50sec on Jonas which will probably be over minute after 1st TT cuz its flat and just can ride comfortably and Jonas does not have team to cook Tadej in hardest stages this year so he will have to attack him himself which could result not having legs for that last TT stage...

Cause when he is in the draft then aerodynamics of his set-up does not matter. However the deeper wheels that Pogi had definetely helped him on the straight-line part of the descent. It's a matter of trade-off: shallow wheels will be lighter, benefits you on the uphill but less aero, deeper wheels more aero, benefits you on the downhill, but they weigh more.

    I don't agree with the weight difference excuse. The heavier ball does not fall faster as Galileo famously showed. The heavier rider does have more momentum and that may help overcome air resistance but the lighter rider is more aero which also helps overcome air resistance, so weight is not an advantage. Also, CRod caught JV on the descent and they are probably similar in weight. THE difference was Pogi was accelerating out of the switchbacks much harder than JV. The difference was visibly obvious. In modern cycling, descending is about watts. JV had no legs left for the descent after trying to follow Pogi's uphill attack.

    Did Jonas lose 30 seconds on the second part of the descent because he’s using 1x instead of 2x like everybody else and simply could not keep up with everyone else on the descent because of that? He was pretty much the only one losing time on the second part of the descent. Remco & Roglic are already 35 seconds behind at the start of the second half of the descent. It’s Jonas who loses 30 seconds, just on the second part of the descent. The first part is very technical, but the second part of the descent requires pedaling hard and at high speeds… this is where 1x lacks the top end that you have on the 2x gearing… could it be that it’s not just lack of legs, but lack of proper top end on the gearing?
