love this guy! great athlete, for a long time i didnt see Tadej this much exhausted. Very good tactics, could have been ended up worse if the guys behind could manage to bike together instead of racing each other but here our champion. Very well deserverd victory by Tadej and Slovenia
@@Djuntas strong disagree, if the group at the back worked together Tadej would've really hard time, at some point margin was dropped to 35s. I was at the nerves until last 10 kms lol

He seems such a nice guy, he deserves all the best in the sport and in life. He is already a legend of this sport When he rides his bicycle he simply becomes "incredible Tadej"💥💪🤩
It's hard to think of a more deserving World Champion. What he did yesterday left us all speechless I think, and I, for one, was in tears when he crossed the finish line. Many had doubts, even he had doubts, but the way he was able to push that aside and just go for it is admirable. A true role model. Soooo deserved. Enjoy this now, Tadej! Čestitke 🌈🏆❤️
He blew the whole thing apart at 100K to go.. All the other leaders had to drop their teammates to limit their losses. Very smart tactics if you are as strong as him, stupid if you are not.. He's a legend!
The little boy that likes to play with his bike is growing into a man. A man that is both strong and confident, but also deeply grateful and aware of the sacrifices of those around him.
....as long as he keeps that little boy mentality, or even if he can and see it as just a game without importance then he will continue to win and enjoy it....
Not only the best cyclist in the world, but also the best sportsman in the world. I can't think of any sportsman that's more dominant than him right now. If he doesn't receive the Laureus Award, that would be a disgrace
@@davidsluga2926 I love Usyk, him and Lomachenko are my favourite boxers. Usyk deserves The Ring FOTY award for beating Fury, but in all sports... considering his whole season, Pogacar 2024 deserves it more, in my opinion. I mean, to match or even surpass what Pogacar has done in 2024, Usyk should've beaten the top 3 or 4 heavyweights in the world in the same year
POGI was 2024 "the PINK Panther" ... then ... "the yellow LION" ... and now ... "the RAINBOW-Warrior". Tadej is already a cycling legend ... a "GOD" of cycling ...
Tadej is a real master... Big heart and viking mentallity 🙏👍its a joy to see these cyclists in the top of the game... I am werry impressed.. Such stamina is insane... Bless you al out there boys and girls 🙏
I’m 30 and Tadej is my hero. Love how he attacks each race. Love how he respects everyone. Hero material! My guy needs to write a children’s book for my newborn!
You couldn’t have picked a better hero! Even the guys in the peloton that he regularly destroys, have tremendous respect and affection for him. I’m 65 and he’s my hero, too!
Tadej thinking this is a stupid attack but has the guts, fortitude, and courage to risk it all in spectacular and glorious fashion. There may never be a more powerful display of dominance at this level in our lifetime. Same as with Mads Pedersons world champ victory in the pouring rain.
Torço para que seja um dos maiores de todos os tempos. Se fosse ele , esse ano teria ido a volta Espanha. Pilota de um jeito que as corridas ficam bem mais emocionantes. Go Pogi
Pogi, it wasn't a stupid move... YOUR LEGS told you to attack. Even if MVDP or Remco had been in the right position Pogi was unbeatable today. NO-ONE could match his power on the climbs and he would have attacked those guys and ridden away from them. He basically rode a 100km time trail in the middle of the most prestigious 1-day race in the world. Only 1 beast can do that. Pogi had a date with destiny - and no-one was going to deny him. Chapeau - you are 'il nuovo cannibale'.
It was a perfect strategy, because he’s the strongest rider. Runners use this strategy as well: You create a gap with an explosive effort, in which nobody can close, while you maintain the same speed that the chasers are doing. After all, it’s not necessarily the fastest athlete that wins the race; it’s the one who slows down the least.
He is quite fluetnt in English..but his his interview in his own langage was much more emotional.Its hard to express in foreign languag..especiially after so long and exausted race
@@RoslynMcLean what do you guys like about no communication? How does it make the race better? Don’t say basics… because pro racing has comms, that is basic for pros.
Radios definitely necessary for safety. If they had radios I think the team would have noticed that that 18 year old Swiss rider wasn't responding anymore. Maybe they would have found her faster instead of leaving her lying in a ditch for an hour because no one knew she was missing. RIP Muriel Furrer.
@J-cz7yv pretty sure it was said that just because teams don't have comms in-ear they do have people along the course that provide useful information.
When I first saw him i always thought he was just an arrogant guy. he's not a decent guy and one hell of a cyclist. Great to see him in the Rainbow jersey
It is interesting how emotional he seems after this win... despite the fact that the UCi world championships are not really that big a deal in actual pro cycling. When you look at the race... 1 day... 275k... not that much climbing... it's really nothing compared to the Tour de France ... it is literally just equivalent to ONE stage of the The Tour... ONE day out of 21 grueling days. So... it's not surprising that winning the "rainbow jersey" just is not as big of an accomplishment as winning one of the three grand tours each year. Milan/San Remo is actually a LONGER race than Zurch was... and the Tour of Flanders is about the same distance--and Paris/Roubaix is just a little shorter--but with the dangerous and grueling cobbled sections--and is considered the toughest Monument race--and certainly harder than the World Championships.... Many of "the greatest" road cyclists in history never won the world championship... because it just wasn't that big a deal historically. So... why Tadej seems so emotional about this particular win is kind of perplexing. Maybe it has nothing to do with the race itself but something to do with his personal life. Or maybe he just didn't eat or drink enough during the race. :)
That was a long-winded way of saying you understand nothing of the sport. "The world championships aren't really that big a deal in pro cycling" might be one of the worst takes I've ever read. Having the honor of wearing the rainbow jersey for an entire season, forever having that on your resume and all the increased sponsorships/endorsements that come with it are hugely significant and one of the greatest milestones a cyclist can acheive. The world champion of any sport is a huge deal and a dream come true.
Jeder weis das diverse Mittelchen eingeworfen werden. Wie kann man 270km unter 6h fahren und danach im Ziel rumhampeln, als stünde der Start bevor? Lächerlich.!
Und deine Expertise, um das einschätzen zu können, ist genau welche? Und er ist der einzige, der etwas nimmt und gewinnt deshalb? Manche Leistungen können sicher kritisch hinterfragt werden. Aber immer sofort zu schreien, dass eh alle voll sind, wenn eine Leistung erbracht wird, die man selbst nicht nachvollziehen kann, obwohl man keinen Leistungssporthintergrund in der Sportart hat, ist ein bisschen sehr einfach. Und das anhand einer Durchschnittsgeschwindigkeit zu bemessen ist gleich doppelt unsinnig.
Was für ein Bullshit schreibst du denn da? Weil du es nicht kannst verdächtigst du Pogacar, dass er zu diversen „Mittelchen“ greift? Geh besser in deiner Stammkneipe und trink was (das kannst du wahrscheinlich am besten) statt Kommentare über Radprofis zu schreiben.

An incredible human being in so many ways….never seen anyone like him in Sport
Thank you Anders for asking a very personal question and allowing Tadej the time and space to answer and exit. You are an asset to the Eurosport team.
The only time I've seen him look more exhausted was last years world championships
Congrats!So many big Results in His young Carrer.Respect👍👍👍

let go tadej
Tadej: u ur not only an incredible cyclist but at the same time, u ur humble. This must be yr peak or will u get better.
🇸🇮❤️
You are the best cyclist in the world ❤pogi
He is a Champion also for answer for hours at the same questions, usual questions, exausting question again and again... very tiring
