True legends of cycling Ulrich & Pantani I was only 23 when the 98 tour came to Ireland & there was some buzz about the place..hard to imagine Pantani is no longer with us guess u never know what mental anguish someone is going through behind closed doors,Rest in peace Marco you'll never b forgotten..
@@miniorek if you think Pogacar and the others are clean I've got news for you. Maybe nowadays testing is better so they get away with less, but all the top rider still use as many PEDs as they can get away with. Just like any other large enough professional sport
13:46 Pantani flicks his elbow for Ullrich to pull through and then Jan swings wide and they drag race to the line side by side. That is old school macho racing right there. No track tactics, true mano a mano duel.
"what Marco did today was bad for me but extraordinary for cycling" Jan Ullrich said at the end of the legendary galibier stage of the tour 98. When he literally saved a tour that risked not even arriving in Paris due to continuous doping scandals during that edition. Jean Marie LeBlanc thanked him no longer inviting him from 2001 onwards.
Here it is. This can be enough to tell what Marco's life was. The most exciting sportsman I've ever seen. one too special to feel good in this world.
Legends and my youth revisited. Watch very carefully at 13:45, clearly. Pantani doesn't contest the win but he does it incredibly well (maybe that's why he was so pissed with LA on Ventoux) At 13:45 I think you see he flicks the right elbow twice, very subtly but basically saying "come by now Jan". Pure pro.
@@petef15 It's not so much about being in yellow. It's that Ulrich did all the work on the climb. If Pantani had been the aggressor breaking the wind he wouldn't have given up the win, even if we were in yellow.
I remember i was 15 year old when i whatched marco Pantani during giro and tour..in my eyes was a spectacular sport cycling..the attack of Pantani on the climb..i will never forget the big emotions that il pirata gives to an entire nation.. i never feels the same emotions whatching cycling..now it's very boring sport without heart.. Pantani we will never forget you.. thanks for the good memories and emotions that you given us..🇮🇹
@@Bluesman2509 Yes but everyone was on juice, so still his performance was higher. Also, those athletes are way better without doping than any serious amateur with doping you can rest assured about this.
@@Augenhose "those athletes are way better without doping than any serious amateur with doping" not so sure about that. look at bodybuilding to see what drugs can do; you could train hard every day for 20 years and you would loose to a juiced amateur training for 3 years
Ullrich was full out there, you can tell he suffered, look at his face, he left nothing there, if you follow him closely you can see he didn't quit for a moment even when Aldag gave him help. That was a brave ride that day because Pantani was just too good at climbing so Ullrich just killed himself all the way up the Madeleine. Great classic riders Pantani and Ullrich, remember it like it was yesterday.
@@osbor_rato5109 chiedete a jalabert. se Pantani era furbo non sarebbe andato a vincere in quel modo a Oropa, umiliando gli avversari. poi non alzò le mani perchè non sapeva se c'erano altri corridori davanti..... ha fatto l'innocente. va beh intanto se ha perso quel giro 99 un motivo c'è. direi che l'ha fatta fuori dal vaso
@@napomania incredibile il modo in cui molti italiani gettano mer** sui loro sportivi di punta appena inciampano. Allo stesso tempo però sono gli stessi italiani che hanno la mafia sotto casa e la reputano la normalità.
Achei massa esse vídeo do tour de France etapa 16 de 1998 ano que nasci,é incrível como as bikes já estavam super evoluídas com marchas etc,agora o mais louco é que os caras não usavam capacete ainda kkkk,show de bola essa prova👏👏👍®🐺
LEgal cara. Eu comecei assistir ciclismo em 1998, era fã do Cipollini, e sim eles não usavam capacete, nem os sprinters. Essas bikes já eram muito boas inclusive eram em carbono. Única diferença era a relação com marchas mais pesadas pois foi Armstrong que popularizou cadencias maiores com relações mais leves. Inclusive spideiros mais velhos (tipo eu hahahah) usavamos 53-39 com 11-23 até bem pouco tempo atrás, só em 2014 aderi aos compactos. Realmente os tempos mudam.
I am Italian and I know Pantani very well by listening to his interviews and those of his father and mother, I summarize his story in a nutshell. He was a boy who was looking for the most extreme climbs to test himself since he was 14/15 years old, he became a professional cyclist and he only met serious injuries up to 97, in 98 his first year without any unexpected has won lap and thunder then they unjustly stopped him at the turn of the 99 because the Neapolitan mafia had received a lot of clandestine betting on Pantani in that round, all attacked him and he who had a clear conscience could not react to the end and began to take cocaine, finally he was killed in 2004 probably because he wanted to denounce the injustices of the UCI and the fact that they knew that the cyclists were all doped. He too obviously took something at that time because everyone did it and you can not win against those who are doped if you are not even if you are the strongest, he wanted to change the system and this was done before the tour that not he had him participate in 2001, 2002 and 2003 and then definitively, he was a good person ...
Infatti, ha giocato di fino. Inizia la volata, lo controlla e poi, guardando la ruota anteriore di Ullrich, frena proprio all'ultimo momento, facendogliela sudare. Come a voler dire: "se volevo, vincevo anche questa". Grande Marco, senza i fatti di Madonna di Campiglio i 7 Tour di Armstrong erano tuoi! Il più grande campione dopo Merckxx, distrutto dalla mafia e abbandonato da giornalisti corrotti.
Yes I totally agree, it underlines how epic that battle between these great cyclists was. Nowadays the battles on the Tour de France mountain stages somehow feel different.
Love it. Cycling as I remember it. Those steel-framed beasts! Steel is real. I still ride an 853 Renolds frame. But my tyers are now 28 inches wide, rather than those 21-inch tyers lol.
Ningún ciclista como demostró Amstromg puede ganar cinco o mas tour de France sin Epo u otra droga. Nadie que gane tanto puede estar limpio a menos que tenga un talento desde joven y tanto Amstrong como Indurain o Froome lo hicieron despues de mucho tiempo en su edad madura, lo cual es extraño que aparezca de sopetón una gran capacidad de ser superciclista. Desde los 80 a hasta 2010 el dopaje ha sido una constante, por eso no se ven grandes batallas porque cada quien va con sus fuerzas al limite sin arriesgar mucho.
Rafa Reds y que te cres que un mundial o la champions se gana a base de macarrones y acuarius,en el futbol ay barra libre de dopaje pero esta protejido
fromme no lo conocía nadie ni Tour Lavenir gano , ni ningún proceso, luego fue a un laboratorio y un super ciclista , igual que todos los superdopados, siempre con una enfermedad crónica .
1996,1997 i would say In 1998 he was too heavy, same in the following years. Ullrich could have won 10 tours in a row.... Unfortunately he liked Cakes and Beer more than cycling
I would say Ullrichs best years were 96 and 97. In 96 he was just not allowed to go full gas because he was working for his leader Bijarne Riis. I always thought 96 could easily have been his TDF victory number 1. Well then in 2003 he was super strong as well, he destroyed LA in the TT's but waited for him on the climb when LA crashed. At the end he was 40 seconds behind LA. I think he could have won the 2003 TDF, he clearly was the strongest rider. So for sure Jan could have ended up with 3 TDF victories relatively easily. But well he was fair, and loyal which got in his way for victory. Potentially the TDF 2006 could also have been a TDF victory for him as he prepared very well and was thinner as well but we all know what happened back then....
Nice old cycling, when riders raced 1v1. Nowadays nobody would attack from so far, if they did, the leader's team would just go to the front and slowly catch him. Boring as sh**.
In my opinion he would've deserved 3 TdF even with Armstrong around. He could've won in 1996 (stopped for team reasons, his captain actually won, but Jan had something more) and in 2003 (He waited for Armstrong after he fell only to be fooled by Lance, who took advantage of Jan loosing his pace, and then that damn fall in the last time trial)
@@AugenhoseGlad you agree! Let's say Jan was a gentleman, very respectful with his rivals... A clear example was after the 98 Galibier stage, with Pantani attacking and, despite the terrible day he went throught, he still had wonderful words for Marco... Jan would've deserved more than what he actually won, with 96 & 03 maybe you remember 06 too, he could've made a pretty decent tour that year, expecially without Armstrong around, but things went wrong another time for him... One of my favourite sportsman ever, without a doubt.
@@iltuttologo3173 yes he was in great shape early on that season. no overweight, no surgeries accidents or what so ever, then that scandal hit him. pure bullshit he got suspended but others did not.
ballyp81 Those bikes all have the older Quill Stems which where considered more safer since there is only 2 torque points to torque but this made it harder to swap out the quill stem as you needed a complete Quill. The newer bikes you do not take out the stem only the bar that attaches to the handle and the stem. This is so that you can swap out a shorter bar and not have to remove the Quill post on the forks. To me the Quill system is safer but a pain in the ass for shorter people as you need a shorter Quill . The new system is much faster to swap out the bars that attach to the handles and this makes it much easier for quick rider setups.
Pantani gifted him the stage. Look at 13.47. Marco even flicks his elbow to tell Ulrich to start sprinting. Then Pantani seems to have to take it easy to let Jan get around him. I'm not taking anything away from Ulrich here, just pointing out what appears pretty obvious to me.
My Wild Dreams yea obviously Pantani was never going to genuinely contest the stage after Ulrich did all the work. He did put on a cute pseudo sprint for the cameras though!
@@Augenhose Ullrich had a problem beeing a pro all year long. He did not have that ultimate winnersdrive that Armstrong had. One tour he stood at the start looking like he ate too many burgers and still came in second. If only he applied himself he could have beaten Armstrong. Even Armstrong said so. 2003 was close.
@@Augenhose He was actually 68 kgs here and 70-71 after 2000. He said his optimal power to weight was 70kgs. He is 183 cms, so given his massive legs he is a SUPER SKINNY guy.
@@Augenhose Ullrich optimum weight to be competitive was 70 kg. Lower he struggled to get the power out. His problem after 97 was he became complacent, and let himself too much in winter, and lead up to TdF he usually lost those excess weight too fast, and this made him vulnerable to Armstrong, whom usually perfectly prepared for TdF
en el año 98 donde estaba Armstrong?? estaaba en un laboratorio, luego volvio como el ave Fenix, en el 2.018 existe otro ciclista que esta a punto de morir de un asma cronica pero ya lleva 4 Tour de FRancia
Ulrich per quanto era stanco non riusciva neanche a fare la volata per finta Pantani ha fatto il Signore Egli ha lasciato la tappa tirando fino alla fine per guadagnare secondi per la maglia gialla si è visto anche a 100 metri dall'arrivo quando Pantani gli tira la volata e gli fa segno con il gomito di passare ulri era lesso e finito
MAURIZIO MORELLI bici Wow menomale lo hai notato anche tu! Credevo fossi l'unico, secondo me ci sono messi d'accordo fra di loro.Che si vede chiaramente che lo fa vincere!
All tour winners live by the mantra, “by any means necessary”, and those means do include doping. As doping advances so should the rules and methods to trace the doping.

I bought my first road bike at the age of 14 in 1999 and I can confirm that the bike geometry in the late 90s was horrifically stretched!!!

they used to get low by having a longer stem. Nowadays they get low by having a shorter headtube and slammed stem.
