I mean, of course you can manage a "Chill" 3 and a half hour ride against olympic wannabe Pro cyclists. Cousin Pogi made a statement, and the U23 category too.

That came as a blessing for my buddies at Pemex-like Mexican team, that got a Mexican rider in the Elite category that was not Isacc Del Toro!

I NEED TO SEE AN INVESTIGATION ON MURIEL'S INCIDENT. Was it a mechanical failure or simply human error? I feel so bad for her and her family but I still want answers. There have been several tubeless and carbon fiber failure related incidents lately on and this does need to be put under a microscope to know what really happened and if it was caused by that or not. Knowing this can save more riders in the future. I feel bad for Muriel and Andre and Gino. They were young and full of dreams and future and it feels so unfair their deceases have been just put under the rug by the UCI with not too much measures or even an investigation and measures put in place to prevent any more riders having this ultimate and cruel fate.

@@GaiusPrimusMatius Remco is definitely the same as Pogi. The only thing he lacks is being an animal in GC. But apart from that he is better than Pogacar when the slope slow down. All he seems to have to do is lose a little bit of weight to compete at the highest level in GC.
DUH, they're from different planets. No racer from planet SlovEPOnia would seem normal to an intergalactic racer from BelgEPOium, those planets are on opposite sides of UCIverse.
Just because Pogi won in such a spectacular fashion, it will not make us forget about the death of Muriel Furrer or question the cleanest of the winner.
So many commentors on other YT channel's going on and on how Pogi is the greatest to have ever ridden a bike! How could ANYONE consider this to be "normal" ?? He is so geared up it's laughable....IMHO...and I've been around awhile!🙄
100% agree. The ex professinals that commentate or have a podcast like lowcost Lance need to start calling this shit out. They all rode during the mega doped era, they know what is involved, the politics, money and what is going on.
Thanks for bravely saying what most experienced fans were thinking. LRCP speculated that Pogi’s actual wattage expended was similar to that of the peloton, as the latter’s constant surging and internal attacking cancelled out the drafting benefit. Be good to check the power data and see whether indeed Pogi’s performance was ‘not normal’. I’m clutching at straws, I know, but I still hope Pogi is a clean rider🙏
They gifted Pogacar at least half of the gap he ended up having because nobody reacted in the peloton. Let's not pretend he just rode away from everyone else while they were going full gas. Doped or not, the big teams not reacting to Pogacar when he goes at a 100 km is horrendous tactics and cost them any chance of making this more competitive
@@tomcads1604 Dude, be real. Pogi is "supposedly" riding CLEAN and he is literally beating heavily doped Lance Dopestrong's best climbing times by multiple minutes up the same climbs??? GTFOH with that BS! On the climb to Plateau de Beille this year Pogi , Vingegaard and Evenepoel were climbing into a steady headwind most of the ascent, yet they put up 3 of the fastest ascents ever on both an actual and a normalized sea level adjusted watts/kg effort basis that we have seen in history. Pogacar put out the highest watts/kg sea level adjusted effort in history of 7.27watts/kg, even his normalized effort was a record that equated to putting out 6.96watts/kg at sea level for 60 minutes. Vingegaard, coming off a major crash less than 2 months before the start of the TDF and despite getting dropped by Pogi on this climb by 68 seconds, still put up the second highest normalized sea level adjusted effort in history that equated to putting out 6.85watts/kg at sea level for 60 minutes. Both Pogi's altitude score of 697 and Vingo's score of 685 easily best Pantani's DOPED 1997 ascent up Alpe D'Huez that had been the previous best TDF climb adjusted ascent in history. Evenepoel, for whom climbing is NOT even his best discipline and who finished almost 3 full minutes behind Pogi on the climb still put up the 23rd best TDF altitude adjusted climbing performance in history and still beat Pantani's DOPED previous record ascent climb from 1998. And we are to believe he did that clean??? Pogi, "supposedly" racing CLEAN literally went up the Plateau de Baille climb 3 minutes and 40 seconds faster than the previous fastest record ascent set by a DOPED Marco Pantani in 1998. 3 minutes and 40 seconds faster than a DOPED Pantani while riding into a steady headwind! Both Vingo and Evenepoel (who is not even a true climber) both also smashed Pantani's previous 1998 ascent record as well and they are both also "supposedly" riding CLEAN. LOL In addition, Pogi just the previous day had arguably put up the greatest climbing effort in TDF history on the final ascent of the Pla D'adet when he went up that climb a full 2 minutes sea level adjusted faster than Dopestrong's DOPED 2001 time up that same final climb. The year Dopestrong was arguably at his very best in the TDF! If you think those are CLEAN 2024 performances by any of those 3 riders I have some great oceanfront property in Nebraska that I'll sell you for a very fair price. I promise! 🙂
It has always been like the WWE on a bike and has never changed. These latest "superstars" are doping to the max just like Team Sky and Froomy were doping to the max for the better part of a decade and just like Dopestrong and USPS were and just like all the other top pros in the 1990's were. Ever since EPO came on the cycling scene in the early 90's it has been a cheat fest in which the UCI "pretends" it is monitoring the sport. No way Pogi, and Vingo are literally obliterating the best climbing times of Dopestrong by multiple minutes, while riding CLEAN just 20 years later. And anyone that believes otherwise is living in a fantasyland. Some people enjoy fantasy more than reality. LOL
More like F1 and NASCAR combined but in fancy Carbon Fibre bycicles and lycra. I find it pleasing when it is live. I recently assisted to an AR Monex team race in my town and it was a dream. I was thinking on uploading videos but nah I didnt record anything, just enjoyed the live race in a lower category on a mid 2000's cheap alloy bike, running mid pack, to keep my identity secret and who knows, maybe in the future become a secret agent for Uncle Cycling to see who will be the next Isaac Del Toro :)
As has been said in many other channels, "not normal" is the highest form of praise, one journalist said to Remco that some would say he also was not normal, Remco answered with a smile and thank you. So this might have to do with english not being Remco's first language. However, obviously it was not normal, but nobody in their right mind would call the number one ranked cyclist in the world normal, outstanding or alien would be better words 🙂
I dont mind the conversations about doping because all these guys are doping. However, I do have a problem with the pot calling the kettle black and folks in the comments crying about dope when their favorite also-doped rider didn't win. I was finally getting less annoyed with remco, then he went back to doing remco things when he didn't get what he wanted. This is exactly what Lance meant when he said Pog gotta be careful not to piss people off
Pogi is the cleanest rider in history. Only a supremely clean rider could so thoroughly crush their doped rivals and records. He's so clean that the hair doping soap sponsor will be switching to sponsor him. He will never test positive as long as the selfies keep coming.
I really enjoyed the heated discussion between the Slovenian team's technician and the UCI commissioner, who wanted to take Pogi's bike for testing at the finish line. They must have been arguing about the weather forecast, what else could it be?
@@romanzat you can find the last 25 kms of the coverage on tizcycling or other places. What are you looking for? Just after the finish of MVDP - Pog runs towards Urska and hugs her. In the next scene... there's a brief drone/heli camera shot that lasts for just a few (3-5) seconds when you can see the crowd and the mentioned, heated discussion between two gentlemen in the bottom right corner.
Nothing has ever been unveiled about Ullrich or Armstrong or any of the other thousands of riders that doped in the history of our sport either.... No positive doping test has ever been showed by any of all these riders.... But the current generation of riders knows the way to those same doctors... The current peloton/teams are still full of the same people who have been doped in the past or helped others to use enhancing products..... Thus sorry, it is not because the UCI has been hiding (almost) all positive doping test, that it is not used.... And certainly not in team UAE, which is nothing more than the old Lampre team and Saunier Duval team before that... Just look up what kind of great work Matxin did with riders like Menchov, Cobo Acebo, Ricardo Ricco and all those others.... And yes that is indeed the same Matxin that you will always find at Pogi's side.... 😉
I hope he never gets Remco'd or Vingegaard'd because an injury like that is very gruesome. I think if any of those riders haven't had their almost career ending incidents, they would be beating Pogacar because of their smaller weight and size.
@@thetechfromheaven ..u really are living in a fantasy world...but u know what keep dreaming, meanwhile I'll be watching Pogačar palmarès growing as he will be untouchable for a looooong time....
@@GaiusPrimusMatius he's flesh and bone just like you and me. I too wish him a succseful and clean career but you can't push under a rug the fact that this sport is dangerous and anyone is at mercy no matter how good he or she is. And is a fact that if Remco and Jonas hadn't had their bad injuries, they could've had beaten Pogi this year.
Only thing is that Remco did never accuse Pogacar of anything.... I am a big fan of this channel, but this time you have the facts wrong.... Saying that something is abnormal or not normal in Flemish/Dutch is a way to show your respect for your opponent.... It's like saying that he's in another league..... One channel started the wrong translation, and now several other channels are copying that same error...... Thus no Remco said nothing wrong about Tadej.... He only showed his respect for a stronger opponent.
Might be true for the dutch expression but he repeated it in French: "pas normal" (see 1:57). It does not have that same connotation in French. So Remco is definitely insinuating something.
@@anonymous-rj6ok Than you should listen to the rest of the interview too maybe ? He stated very clear that only one rider deserved to win the rainbow jersey, and that is the strongest rider of this season... I watched the full interview on Belgian television... Evenepoel has only big admiration for Pogacar, nothing more and nothing less... Thus sorry if you are not able to read between the lines. ✌️
With CVT transmisions and direct drive motors I think it is possible to make an small regenerative unit that uses no extra power but the "dynamo" effect of the rider. Much like a KERS unit in an F1 car but without a battery.
they are bro 💀theres no sorts of doping being found every day and as long as theyre untracable and not on the anti doping list its allowed so they deffinetly are
How can a rider at the WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS, leave 115 DNFs gasping in a wake of dust, AND then waltz across the finish line, after breaking away solo for . . . 100KM? >>>>> 💉💉💉🩸🩺🧫🧪⚗💊
You missed the triple flip with a twist, sticking the landing of course, onto the top step - after kissing every baby in the crowd and donating a quart of blood to a Slovene fanboy who was overcome and needed a transfusion - that was after the impromptu dance lesson when he tried to teach the throngs of well-wishers a traditional Slovene polka. Is there nothing Pogs can't do?
Lighter, more aerodynamic bikes and other equipment. Also, far, far better training techniques and a better ability to understand individual athletes bodies.
@@saynotothegreatreset Is Tadej’s bike that much heavier though? Even if it is, you have to take into consideration the aerodynamic benefits. There’s going 14-20 kph up all the climbs these days. The weight difference might not actually hurt the performance too too much if at all (unless it’s like those two Vuelta stages this year). Either way, the training these days is if far better. We have 14 year olds in the US with 5 w/kg FTPs. Are they doping? I don’t think so. Now just imagine what kind of monsters they’ll be by the time they’re Tadej’s age.
@@MJLPlaysCODMUSPS had training pretty well dialed as well as fueling. Much of modern cycling is following in the footsteps of Ferrari. They also had EPO which boosted their power by 10%.
Answers to this and other questions may not be forthcoming. The darling of cycling is riding with the jersey of immunity too. Armstrong must be quite envious.
That's not what Remco said. Saying something is not normal is a common expression in Flemish for something being extrodanary/not common, which it was. Remco isn't suggesting doping.
Remco: I'm the strongest, smartest, most aero rider that ever lived. Plus, I have steel cajones big as a pair of wrecking balls. You beat me, you're a doper. Period. Full stop. Next question
Pogacar's dominant performance is suspicious especially given the history of the Lance Armstrong doping scandal. I'd like to believe Pogacar is clean but he made the world RR champ field look like amateurs.
It is weird, I'm starting to think the cycling calendar is sold off to Teams one race at a time. In World Champs VDP and Remco were riding like they had their brakes rubbing and were contained by lesser riders. There were no huge attacks from either of them. This time Pog seemed to be riding with diamonds in his legs (maybe it cost a few diamonds for this privilege??) In the Olympics, Remco could ride with Diamonds in his legs and the spring Classics it was VDP's turn. The fans wants to see these riders ride at their best BUT it seems impossible to have two or three riders riding at their best at the same time. It's like the races are fixed. I'm sure the heads at UAE have come to Zurich with many Camels or a sacksful of Dirhams and it's only a short walk to the local Swiss Bank where all these deposits will disappear in to. :/
@@stevec6232 maybe sold to Bora/Red Bull? I know crashes can sink a plan and with Roglic too but the races do seem uncontested quite frequently. I think in the worlds, the blunted performance from Remco and VDP seems as odd as Pog's performance.
You nailed it, it's the only logical explanation, it was glaringly obvious that the chasers could have easily catched Pog if they wanted to. It also explains how Evenepoel at 61 kg can win a flat time trial against a specialist like Ganna at 84 kg. It's all a big joke.
@@mekasspiridon aerodynamics explain why miniman Evenepoel can beat the giant Ganna. Like one Norwegian rider said, riding behind Remco is almost like not being in the draft.
Seit 1991 schaue ich Radsport, habe viele "Helden"/Doper auch live gesehen. Was P. veranstaltet, ist nicht ernst zu nehmen. 3 (!) Saison-Höhepunkte in einem Jahr und alle haushoch gewinnen? Fast 5000 Höhenmeter und dann noch einen gepflegten Zielsprint ohne die geringste Erschöpfung? Das ist alles nur noch lächerlich.
Why don't the other sponsors demand more professional performances of their riders if Pogi is racing clean? I would be livid if I was a sponsor, and my riders rode like juniors around Pogi.
Pogacar director was a doping guru in the past. The point is that they actually dope in a smart way, so that in combination with amazing training makes him doing such a wonderful season. But, based on past "shows" winning Giro, Tour, Worlds and so many other races, is not a good sign about what is happening in cycling
True, it seems logically improbable, although Tony Martin time trialled stage 6 from the start at the 2013 Vuelta and was only caught about 30m from the finish line.
Not against the other best riders! These were so stupid to attack each other for 100km to come and were as exhausted as Pogi, when they passed the finish line within less than 60 seconds.
Cycling as a whole has been winding down after the varus has "officially" unofficialy ended. You barely see any cyclist anymore but only crackheads in cheap walmart bikes.
I wanted to believe for a time that Pogi was just some kind of freak of nature, but now I have to concede that there is something more than just natural talent at play here. He's just simply too good and too strong all the time.There's no secret combination of nutrition, training and fitness that hasn't already been tried by every cycling team since the sport began that produces guys like Pogacar.
It's sad but the writing is on the wall. Not even when watching Lance back then he was this dominating. Tadej got new revolution trainer approach but yes there has to be something extra. Something that hasn't been revealed yet. Now he crushing everything in Emilia and will most certain do it again in Lombardia.
Buonaparte was unstoppable too and then.. He'll need to be wise enough to walk away at the right time. 50/50 maybe but these things seem to end badly when the success comes so easily and is so dominant.
Man if Tadej is doping then there is almost no doubt that Reno and every other GC contender is doping too in order to come close to him! Either none are doping or all are doping. Choose your side.
The stupid mainstream cyclingmedia wants us to believe we are dealing with an outstanding cyclist. Well I watch cycling for over 50 years now, I saw Merckx, Hinault, Indurain and off course Lance and always the story goed the same, this is an unique cyclist amd they were always doped to the gills. Pogacar is no acception, only a fool believes what he sees.
This smarty who is talking about knowing everything there is to know about cycling since he is watching cycling 50 years, I have a news for him. I'm watching cycling more than 65 years, way before Jacque Anquetil. Pogačar is coming from different culture and tradition. It's culture where honesty, human decency, hard work and fairness are the pillars of the society. In Slovenia, people don't sell theirs souls for dirty money and they don't cheat to achieve theirs goals in immortal ways. All unproved accusations against Pogačar don't speak about him but rather about low human values of his distractions. It's shame. Is there any decency left in this ugly world we are living in!?
I enjoy your videos, but please be careful with the title! In flemish, the expression "not normal" means exceptional, not suggesting what you said in the title.
'Not normal' is a bad translation for the dutch 'niet normaal'. We don't only use 'niet normaal' to say something isn't normal, we use it to describe our unbelief when seeing; hearing something impressive. Don't claim Evenepoel said Pogi's performance is not normal. Evenepoels english is bad and he's often translating from Dutch in the literal sence. He just meant it was impressive. this obv doesn't mean there was no juice involved in sunday's performance 😉
@@Tarmaccyclocross rider 20X better than us, he's on drugs, rider 10X better than us, he's on drugs, rider 5X etc. I've got a smoking gun but can't publish it yet. Super Armstrong Pog, it'll all come out in the open, make sardonic allusions, rinse and repeat.
as we all know, Remco is right. we've never seen such an alien like dopacar, who makes armstrong look like a tourist. Remco is doping too, but even he can see the abnormality and difference of dopacar's doping
Ok hear me out, even if he was doping, which is a serious accusation, no one else has accomplished what he's been able to while doping so like, it doesn't diminish his accomplishments. He's still be a freak of nature.
He was a freak of nature, no doubt, but still human. This year though, he's transmuted. No bad days ever in 2 grand tours, doesn't overcommit and crack, doesn't get run down or sick, smashes decades long climbing records of known dopers one after the other. I used to like watching him but after the tour de farce I cannot anymore. It's that obvious. There's a new arms race in the pro doping peloton.
No I agree, he's got a good engine, thing is we don't know if that is chemically induced or natural? Thing is I do not buy this "acts like he's having fun" child like demeanour, that's all BS, the art is to win by any means necessary, do you think UAE and its managers don't want success and its lab rat is doing everything that is required of him. The way Podgcar behaves like he's just out there doing "stupid, insane" moves is a fraud, he's as ruthless as his nemesis Anchove, these guys don't give out free lunches.
@@siyabulelatshali1012 I forgot about the minutes margins, thx. I watched the world's off and on until the last lap. What I found most difficult to listen to was the commentators singing his praises with no-one batting an eyelid about what they were witnessing. Former pro's oblivious to the obvious.
Usually when it sounds to good to be true it is. In an industry that world championships can't even get on major TV networks the officials would never be succumbed to bribery.
Doping or not: It is just another circus, where not lions but humans are hunted through the arena. I am not even sure the whole race was not a simple charade, the winner has been pre-selected by sponsors and organizers. Each sport need it‘s superstars to compete on TV and internet against soccer, basketball, hockey or whatever you may watch instead of performing some sport yourself. Bread and games, as more than 2000 years before.
It was bloody obvious pogi or someone would attack from 80km as that's the new norm. It was comical for pogi to pretend he did not plan to attack from that distance . Smoke and mirrors to make it look like he is just mortal and not an alien
Let us ask following question? WHO IS NOT USING DOPING? So I do not know, so as long as they do not find them guilty they are doping free. Envy is a bad factor.
Spite? satire? solid evidence anywhere? More factual arguments wouldn't be a disgrace, I'm afraid. Not that I think P is an angel, but that some of your comparisons just fall flat.
It's funny the fact how the alien times of the U-23 winner gave us the new and shiny ban of Elite riders on U23 despite their age on future tournaments. Sorry for Cousin Isacc, at least he can still fight for top 15's with the King of the Minions and totally humilate MVDP on "Gravel" stages :)
Why should someone be doped if he is much better than the rest and breaks the old rules? Bubka was better than all the others in the pole vault. Now Duplantis is a class better than Bubka, but no one is talking about doping. We're just not all the same.
They must have found something, that is undetectable... And not on the 'list'. Anyway, his bike and nutrition was so much better than the others!.......
Pog is an unbelievable athlete can't you just accept that he's the best we've ever seen. All the talk of doping is not helping the sport. If the chasing group behind had worked together, then they would've easily caught him but they didn't so he won. Just enjoy seeing the best. You've no evidence he's a doping so don't put videos on UA-cam which suggest so.
Suggestions of doping in professional cycling?! Perish the thought. Granted, Pogacar is very talented, but let's not fool ourselves into believing that a number of the better riders in the peloton are clean; they're at least as doped up in their own way as any professional bodybuilder.
Cmon, this vid is BS. Pogi and Vingo are only outclimbing fully doped Lance Dopestrong's best climbing times by 2-3 minutes, while riding up climbs like the PDB into headwinds as CLEAN riders. Totally legit. LOL
Pathetic that you try to suggest Remco implied Pog was a doper just to get views. He did not and there is no evidence Pog dopes. Dopers have a sudden amazing performance then a drop off. Pog is good reery time
Remco never speak about doping. Only lames talking about some case, but without proof. Remco said, that nobody deserves rainbow Jersey more than Tadej this year and that he is too great for him, yet.
I’m just a fan of cycling in genera-and since they’re prob still doping… and breaking records, why not just give LA his wins back and call it a day? Weren’t the top riders back then doping too? I imagine there are some who will say he doped better than others… but ( remember I’m just a fan of cycling not an expert, so be kind) one has to also take into consideration the mental fortitude it takes to compete in the TDF. I’ve heard about “motors” or something like that- which is a whole other level of doping. 🥺 Anyway- I think top riders either all dope or all dont 🤷🏼♀️
As far as I’m concerned they are all as doped as a third year University student , therefore making it an even playing field for all. Reinstate Armstrongs tour wins cause the second , third and fourth were all the same.

It was obvious that there was minimal cooperation behind, which is why Pogi could win after his initial attack.
“A Disney-Landis version of the world championships.”

They gifted Pogacar at least half of the gap he ended up having because nobody reacted in the peloton. Let's not pretend he just rode away from everyone else while they were going full gas.
Doped or not, the big teams not reacting to Pogacar when he goes at a 100 km is horrendous tactics and cost them any chance of making this more competitive
@@tomcads1604 Dude, be real. Pogi is "supposedly" riding CLEAN and he is literally beating heavily doped Lance Dopestrong's best climbing times by multiple minutes up the same climbs??? GTFOH with that BS!
On the climb to Plateau de Beille this year Pogi , Vingegaard and Evenepoel were climbing into a steady headwind most of the ascent, yet they put up 3 of the fastest ascents ever on both an actual and a normalized sea level adjusted watts/kg effort basis that we have seen in history. Pogacar put out the highest watts/kg sea level adjusted effort in history of 7.27watts/kg, even his normalized effort was a record that equated to putting out 6.96watts/kg at sea level for 60 minutes. Vingegaard, coming off a major crash less than 2 months before the start of the TDF and despite getting dropped by Pogi on this climb by 68 seconds, still put up the second highest normalized sea level adjusted effort in history that equated to putting out 6.85watts/kg at sea level for 60 minutes. Both Pogi's altitude score of 697 and Vingo's score of 685 easily best Pantani's DOPED 1997 ascent up Alpe D'Huez that had been the previous best TDF climb adjusted ascent in history. Evenepoel, for whom climbing is NOT even his best discipline and who finished almost 3 full minutes behind Pogi on the climb still put up the 23rd best TDF altitude adjusted climbing performance in history and still beat Pantani's DOPED previous record ascent climb from 1998. And we are to believe he did that clean??? Pogi, "supposedly" racing CLEAN literally went up the Plateau de Baille climb 3 minutes and 40 seconds faster than the previous fastest record ascent set by a DOPED Marco Pantani in 1998. 3 minutes and 40 seconds faster than a DOPED Pantani while riding into a steady headwind! Both Vingo and Evenepoel (who is not even a true climber) both also smashed Pantani's previous 1998 ascent record as well and they are both also "supposedly" riding CLEAN. LOL
In addition, Pogi just the previous day had arguably put up the greatest climbing effort in TDF history on the final ascent of the Pla D'adet when he went up that climb a full 2 minutes sea level adjusted faster than Dopestrong's DOPED 2001 time up that same final climb. The year Dopestrong was arguably at his very best in the TDF!

It has not "become", it always was like wwe.
It has always been like the WWE on a bike and has never changed. These latest "superstars" are doping to the max just like Team Sky and Froomy were doping to the max for the better part of a decade and just like Dopestrong and USPS were and just like all the other top pros in the 1990's were. Ever since EPO came on the cycling scene in the early 90's it has been a cheat fest in which the UCI "pretends" it is monitoring the sport. No way Pogi, and Vingo are literally obliterating the best climbing times of Dopestrong by multiple minutes, while riding CLEAN just 20 years later. And anyone that believes otherwise is living in a fantasyland. Some people enjoy fantasy more than reality. LOL

As has been said in many other channels, "not normal" is the highest form of praise, one journalist said to Remco that some would say he also was not normal, Remco answered with a smile and thank you. So this might have to do with english not being Remco's first language. However, obviously it was not normal, but nobody in their right mind would call the number one ranked cyclist in the world normal, outstanding or alien would be better words 🙂
I dont mind the conversations about doping because all these guys are doping. However, I do have a problem with the pot calling the kettle black and folks in the comments crying about dope when their favorite also-doped rider didn't win. I was finally getting less annoyed with remco, then he went back to doing remco things when he didn't get what he wanted. This is exactly what Lance meant when he said Pog gotta be careful not to piss people off
Pogi is the cleanest rider in history. Only a supremely clean rider could so thoroughly crush their doped rivals and records. He's so clean that the hair doping soap sponsor will be switching to sponsor him. He will never test positive as long as the selfies keep coming.

Nothing has ever been unveiled about Ullrich or Armstrong or any of the other thousands of riders that doped in the history of our sport either.... No positive doping test has ever been showed by any of all these riders....
But the current generation of riders knows the way to those same doctors... The current peloton/teams are still full of the same people who have been doped in the past or helped others to use enhancing products.....
Thus sorry, it is not because the UCI has been hiding (almost) all positive doping test, that it is not used.... And certainly not in team UAE, which is nothing more than the old Lampre team and Saunier Duval team before that...
Just look up what kind of great work Matxin did with riders like Menchov, Cobo Acebo, Ricardo Ricco and all those others.... And yes that is indeed the same Matxin that you will always find at Pogi's side.... 😉
@swissbiggy If the entire peloton is doping, then its a fair fight. If you dont hv any shred of proof don't accuse.
I hope he never gets Remco'd or Vingegaard'd because an injury like that is very gruesome. I think if any of those riders haven't had their almost career ending incidents, they would be beating Pogacar because of their smaller weight and size.

Only thing is that Remco did never accuse Pogacar of anything.... I am a big fan of this channel, but this time you have the facts wrong....
Saying that something is abnormal or not normal in Flemish/Dutch is a way to show your respect for your opponent.... It's like saying that he's in another league.....

Thus no Remco said nothing wrong about Tadej.... He only showed his respect for a stronger opponent.
Might be true for the dutch expression but he repeated it in French: "pas normal" (see 1:57). It does not have that same connotation in French. So Remco is definitely insinuating something.
Even if he said not normal he’s not accusing him of doping, just suggesting like Bennett with Froome and now they’re teammates
@@anonymous-rj6ok Than you should listen to the rest of the interview too maybe ? He stated very clear that only one rider deserved to win the rainbow jersey, and that is the strongest rider of this season...

Thus sorry if you are not able to read between the lines. ✌️
It’s an assist in the rear hub. It’s a very small one with not much added power or length of duration, but it’s there.
With CVT transmisions and direct drive motors I think it is possible to make an small regenerative unit that uses no extra power but the "dynamo" effect of the rider. Much like a KERS unit in an F1 car but without a battery.

@@saynotothegreatreset Is Tadej’s bike that much heavier though? Even if it is, you have to take into consideration the aerodynamic benefits. There’s going 14-20 kph up all the climbs these days. The weight difference might not actually hurt the performance too too much if at all (unless it’s like those two Vuelta stages this year). Either way, the training these days is if far better. We have 14 year olds in the US with 5 w/kg FTPs. Are they doping? I don’t think so. Now just imagine what kind of monsters they’ll be by the time they’re Tadej’s age.

That's not what Remco said. Saying something is not normal is a common expression in Flemish for something being extrodanary/not common, which it was. Remco isn't suggesting doping.

Gianetti was also the director of Riccardo Ricco, just saying😅😂
It is weird, I'm starting to think the cycling calendar is sold off to Teams one race at a time. In World Champs VDP and Remco were riding like they had their brakes rubbing and were contained by lesser riders. There were no huge attacks from either of them. This time Pog seemed to be riding with diamonds in his legs (maybe it cost a few diamonds for this privilege??) In the Olympics, Remco could ride with Diamonds in his legs and the spring Classics it was VDP's turn. The fans wants to see these riders ride at their best BUT it seems impossible to have two or three riders riding at their best at the same time. It's like the races are fixed.
I'm sure the heads at UAE have come to Zurich with many Camels or a sacksful of Dirhams and it's only a short walk to the local Swiss Bank where all these deposits will disappear in to. :/

How can a group of elite world tour riders not catch one solitary rider up the road.. especially with 51km to go where Pogi was completely solo? 🙄🙄
Because of this: shorts/TtEmYXZ9fS4.
The Peloton was attacking and counterattacking. Riders are not built to spring so many times in a race while Pogi was keeping his pace.
True, it seems logically improbable, although Tony Martin time trialled stage 6 from the start at the 2013 Vuelta and was only caught about 30m from the finish line.
Could have been motor doping, lets not forget its entertainment,
The answer is unpleasant, but obvious.
Appears they have their new Lance uncle.
Taking off on your own for 100k or more, you gotta be kidding me.
Not on his own until 51 km to go.
Against the best racers in the world 😮
Not against the other best riders! These were so stupid to attack each other for 100km to come and were as exhausted as Pogi, when they passed the finish line within less than 60 seconds.
Tuned it at 70k to go, turned it off about 5 minutes later. Pro cycling is dead
Cycling as a whole has been winding down after the varus has "officially" unofficialy ended. You barely see any cyclist anymore but only crackheads in cheap walmart bikes.
I wanted to believe for a time that Pogi was just some kind of freak of nature, but now I have to concede that there is something more than just natural talent at play here. He's just simply too good and too strong all the time.There's no secret combination of nutrition, training and fitness that hasn't already been tried by every cycling team since the sport began that produces guys like Pogacar.
It's his finish line energy and appearance of "Hey I can ride another 200k at this pace" that waved red flags for me
It's sad but the writing is on the wall. Not even when watching Lance back then he was this dominating. Tadej got new revolution trainer approach but yes there has to be something extra. Something that hasn't been revealed yet.
Now he crushing everything in Emilia and will most certain do it again in Lombardia.

Buonaparte was unstoppable too and then.. He'll need to be wise enough to walk away at the right time. 50/50 maybe but these things seem to end badly when the success comes so easily and is so dominant.

This smarty who is talking about knowing everything there is to know about cycling since he is watching cycling 50 years, I have a news for him. I'm watching cycling more than 65 years, way before Jacque Anquetil. Pogačar is coming from different culture and tradition. It's culture where honesty, human decency, hard work and fairness are the pillars of the society. In Slovenia, people don't sell theirs souls for dirty money and they don't cheat to achieve theirs goals in immortal ways. All unproved accusations against Pogačar don't speak about him but rather about low human values of his distractions. It's shame. Is there any decency left in this ugly world we are living in!?

Well if he was doping it depends on with which substances and the medical advantages against the rivals and then analyze. It’s not so simple.
He was a freak of nature, no doubt, but still human. This year though, he's transmuted.

As far as I’m concerned they are all as doped as a third year University student , therefore making it an even playing field for all. Reinstate Armstrongs tour wins cause the second , third and fourth were all the same.
