Poggy hasn't got it today

It wasn't just today...

Hopefully the commentators and armchair commentators will now finally concede that Vingegaard is clearly the stronger rider of the two.

The simplest answer is usually the right one!

I wanted Poggy to win the tour for his charm, but his attacks on Sunday were soft too.

i didn't know ethan hawke was on the JV staff

Unlabelled bottle of pop - Vinegar a Pepsi man?

He chugs one of those after every stage. It's definitely coke-coloured but I wonder if it's some special JV concoction? It's much bigger than the traditional mini can of coke anyway.

seems he has a naturally aero back (!)

Looking at the replays, his back is a narrow curved hump and maybe a natural aero feature.

EDIT: What you just said...

As much as it would suit me to say he's fine and Jonas is just that much stronger I don't think he's been looking quite himself, as @Prole. said. He's actually looked like he's suffering, which isn't normal!

Bloody pros with their naturally superior physiology...

I doubt a fairing under a TT suit would be UCI legal.

Marginal humps.

Vingo sounds much more confident and comfortable in front of the cameras now.

Vinge’s tekkers looked impeccable.

Gutted for Pog. Always so gracious in defeat and none of the other riders ever give him any love back. I’m still rooting for him.

Still in awe, I thought he looked stronger Sunday and had blown his chance hesitated but todays ride was incredible.

Not sure Remco has the temperament against these two, who else will challenge them!?

They are both likeable for very different reasons. It’s been a great tour

Think this is just a result of the lower hand position than others in peloton.
@umop3pisdn @gbj_tester to weigh in.

Edit I restract my statement.

Pogacar is not going to win the Tour.

Is vinegaard the new froome?
