Yep. He should've gone way earlier. He should've know he didn't have the beating of MVDP in a sprint and especially in this race when he already failed to drop him on the climbs. The fact he then left the sprint so late and ALSO fucked his podium spot was something I've not seen in this level of racing for a while (or it might've been last week, let's be honest my memory is fucked)

Pogacar fucked up. In that situation, you shouldn't let the chasers get involved, precisely because it makes the sprint more complicated. MVDP didn't care, as he was confident he could win even if they did get back on, so Pogacar should've done one more turn to ensure they didn't.
