@@savagepro9060😂 fair enough but he doesn't need my help Jynxing himself. He does pretty good at that all by himself😂 I am not a huge fan of Roglic but he's a great rider. It's kind of sad how close he's come to winning TDF but he will never win the TDF. His time has run out for that I think. It's kind of fkd up how Visma treated him. I'm glad he found a new team for himself tho. A team that will treat him with the respect he deserves. Visma isn't known for their kind ways. They are ALL ABOUT BUSINESS and they don't care at what cost. That team is pretty ruthless as far as what they will do to win and how they go about it 🤘🏻🇬🇧
Roglic is clearly the strongest rider in this year's Vuelta, Ben seems like a great guy and gave us an amazing stage win, but Roglic is still who I'd predict to the overall despite the current gap. Regardless of who wins, it probably makes for a more exciting Vuelta for us fans with Ben trying to retain and others trying to break him.
This is the comment I left . . . This is my takeaway from todays stage *Not surprised to see Roglic on this kind of form. I think he just needs to keep the rubber to the ground and this could be his Vuelta. For the record I'm not a fan of Roglic and I knew he had no chance at TDF but he really looks like the one to beat at the Vuelta *It appeared that Sepp went down or at least unclipped when they came around that tight bend to the climb but I never expected Sepp to do well this Vuelta. I don't believe he's on the form he needs to be on to be a real contender. I don't expect a podium from him *Enric Mas and Mikel Landa are doing quite well and I will be keeping an eye on both of them. They seem like they can be a threat to Roglic *No surprise to see Ben O'Connor lose time. By stage 15 he will lose his lead. Even he doesn't expect to keep the leaders jersey *This is a real race!! We have many riders that can be a threat for the win. This will be a great Vuelta CAN'T WAIT FOR TOMORROWS STAGE 9!! Not extremely long climbs but Three Cat 1 climbs so we will see who is up for the task but it's still not a mountain top finish and it's not yet above 2000m so still not really a decisive stage but definitely a stage to watch and to see who is really ready for battle 🤘🏻🏴

Ben needn't worry, still plenty of time left in the race for Benedict Roglic's famous bike handling skills to intervene and help him to victory. Hopefully sooner rather than later!
Ben loses the leaders jersey by stage 15. Even if Roglic crashes there's still Mas to compete with. He's on great form and Landa looks really strong also 🤘🏻🏴
True, but Roglic was kinda ' busy winning the junior world championship in sky jumping when his competitors were learning about bike handling .86 wins, not so bad for a guy who skipped those lessons:)
@@BeeEhlDoce even tho he's notorious for crashing I really think he's going to stay upright this Vuelta. This is his race. He's won it several times already, he didn't have a chance at TDF (even tho he crashed out he wouldn't have podiumed), and he's got a new team that he wants to make proud and he is on great form. I'm not a big Roglic fan but I think he's got a great shot at this Vuelta. Almieda has covid and did terrible yesterday and I just heard he's DNS for stage 9. Even if he did start today he wasn't going to be a threat everyone hoped for and Sepp was t coming into this race as a real threat in my opinion. I also think Yates is underperforming and possibly because of covid (I'm not sure tho) and Ben himself isn't expecting to hold onto the jersey. He doesn't have a strong team with enough depth and he's going to pay in the upcoming stages. I say by stage 15 or 16 he's lost the jersey. Even if he keeps it past that I don't see him winning. He has a decent shot at getting a podium spot tho if he doesn't blow up the final week which is when I think we'll see him start to fall apart. Mas and Landa are doing really well. I've got my eyes on those two especially Mas 🤘🏻🏴
@@kennykaniff maybe my trolling attempt wasn’t clear enough. I agree with everything you said, I’m just hoping he crashes because I don’t want him to win because of his antics in last year’s Vuelta. That’s why I call him Benedict Roglic. Anybody but him and I like to root for an underdog like O’Connor.
I wouldn't be so hard on his team. The years may be catching up with him but that sort of stage is Roglic's bread and butter and it's a joy to watch him Roglifiying everyone when he does it. If O'Connor's team had been able to do anything about it they would all be GC contenders themselves.
Gall was there and I'm pretty sure he could have followed, at least until the last attack of Roglic. You can see him turning around and waiting for O'Connor a lot of times after 4:00. Decathlon just have the wrong guy in the lead. O'Connor is just not good enough in the mountains. Gall is way better.
@@rewholfAbsolutely. Now F. Gall is working for his "leader" who can't hold on his wheel 😢. No surprise if Gall finish it ahead of O'Connor in the end of the race.
What you on about? There hasn't been any truly decisive climbs yet. Nothing of any real length. We haven't done one cat 1 yet I don't think. Maybe there was one. I forget but there's just not been any long climbs yet. Tomorrow we have three cat 1 climbs. Not too long (8-9km) but decent gradient (a g of 9%). We will see who's ready for battle tomorrow. It's not a mountain top finish but still we get to see who's ready for the big climbs 🤘🏻🏴
they said that Ben O'Connor, being an Australian, knows a thing or two about driving in the heat....aye, got it....but what about the M-o-u-n-t-a-i-n-s of Slovenia and what they do to Primoz Roglic?? ;-)
Mountains of Slovenia has little to do here. Roglic didnt even own a bike until he was 20 or so , he is just an incredible natural talent. Very different from Pog who was a serial winner from kid.
Different rules on different stages but they do change the rules as certain stages present certain issues. They may have allowed it cos of the heat but NOT at 4km to go. That's way too close. Probably got fined for that if they caught it 🤘🏻🏴
@@kennykaniff thanks for your answer. that is also what i thought. sometimes it is 20km sometimes 25 or what i have also seen. just until the last climb starts only 12 km to the finish what would definitely fit into your description. guess they will not mention this any further.
@@mobert8266 yes I definitely don't see it being legal to collect water bottles at 4km to go under ANY circumstance. Maybe he got the bottle from a spectator??? I believe THAT would be allowed but it's DEFINITELY not advised or very smart!!! Do you think maybe it was a spectator? 🤘🏻🏴
There is a reason why nobody go for the triple. It's Impossible for everyone to maintain peak form from May to September, is just too much (even for him) and La Vuelta this year is more hilly than the TDF + the hot whether. The decision to not participate here is right.
Indeed, I come in here for cycling, but, when you're honest with yourself and the world around you it's hard to have Russian athletes omitted wherever possible, and the Jewish flying their flags with atrocities committed far beyond the former ones. And what's more, hasn't anyone noticed yet, how, unlike it is the case with any other team, the name of this peace-loving country stands out?

Different rules on different stages but they do change the rules as certain stages present certain issues. They may have allowed it cos of the heat but NOT at 4km to go. That's way too close. Probably got fined for that if they caught it
🤘🏻🏴
@@kennykaniff thanks for your answer. that is also what i thought. sometimes it is 20km sometimes 25 or what i have also seen. just until the last climb starts only 12 km to the finish what would definitely fit into your description.
guess they will not mention this any further.
@@mobert8266 yes I definitely don't see it being legal to collect water bottles at 4km to go under ANY circumstance. Maybe he got the bottle from a spectator??? I believe THAT would be allowed but it's DEFINITELY not advised or very smart!!! Do you think maybe it was a spectator?
🤘🏻🏴
@@kennykaniff it is in this higlights video as well. you can skip to the point where they reach 4 kilometers. he looks official.
They were allowing bottles until 5km to go because of the heat.
I thought Adam Yates would be up front with the best climbers. Guess he is not on form :(
Me too.
Sepp, where be he.
UAE has no men in the top 10😮
Pogi should have went for the first ever triple.
@@anklepick9524 Well you can't put all your men on Alien juice, that would be suspicious.
@@andrehufschmid They are all on it. The whole peleton. Stop watching this sport.
Why the fuck did Israel pull
Pale Estine
"former Tour de France, Vuelta and Giro winners were there" I doubt that
Think he meant stage winners!
Anyway, Vintage Roglic. When he's on, he's on!
Kuss is a disappointment he should go back to being a domestic
Think Connor will lose more time tmrw ❤
Blood transfusion that day...
In your vein. How does it feel mate?
Pog should be there. He would be eating these guys on toast. The WC can wait. The Grand Slam was there on a plate.
Yeah, I don't know why he didn't go for the triple?
There is a reason why nobody go for the triple. It's Impossible for everyone to maintain peak form from May to September, is just too much (even for him) and La Vuelta this year is more hilly than the TDF + the hot whether. The decision to not participate here is right.
@@МаргаритаСтоянова-з7з he would be roasting this lot. A stage race is more controllable than a one day WC race.
@@МаргаритаСтоянова-з7з He would have won the Vuelta too.
Indeed, I come in here for cycling, but, when you're honest with yourself and the world around you it's hard to have Russian athletes omitted wherever possible, and the Jewish flying their flags with atrocities committed far beyond the former ones.
And what's more, hasn't anyone noticed yet, how, unlike it is the case with any other team, the name of this peace-loving country stands out?
New name: Primoz Roglic to Pretty Much Rogue-Lish
