    And that’s why fans like Pogacar, he’s a fighter, you dont see him at the back of the pack all tour and just use teammates… might not be the best decision but man i was at the edge of my seat until the end!

He's in a quite comfortable zone already and he won't have to recover long from this final sprint today.
