If Remco doesn't win the TT, is a third place and one stage win more valuable to QS than say 4 stage wins with Merlier and no GC?
Carapaz most dysfunctional rider ever. Holy crap. If he can’t win solo, he is happy for the break to die.
Remco's mouth after Jonas attack looked like it was full of balls.
Would it not be about 33 minutes
Haters; who was wheel hugging you said?
LRCP en fuego hoy. Awesome pod today.
The primary goal of Movistar is not winning stages, nor classics, nor grand tours. The primary goal of Movistar is to fuck over Richard Carapaz. Even with a new team, one doesn't easily lose sight of such an ardent calling.
Love the Movistar conspiracy theory!
That first climb was some sight to see.
Tadej could have put another 2 min easy on these guys
Tadej wins tomorrow. He will have 40 sec on remco at first time cut and even on downhill
All this talk of gifting stages needs to stop. Lance and Hincapie talking nonsense about POG not gifting the stage yesterday too. Is POG not supposed to win any stages? If riders stop competing for stage wins after watching for 3 hours, I,m going to stop watching
Why did anyone even think poggie was gonna gift a stage? Almost as confusing as Jonas pulling the mountain.
Patrick must not read many internet comments, there are TONS of people blasting pogi for being greedy, winning too much, not giving wins away like a gentleman etc. like he isn’t payed to win.
It’s actually kind of crazy how many people demand charity in this sport. Nobody expects Verstappen to hit the brakes at the line out of the kindness of his heart even if they concede that his dominance is bad for the spectacle
I don’t like the last stage being a TT. Gonna miss the team celebrations on the last stage
This is getting ridiculous. There is nothing Almeida can do that deserves your compliment. He stayed with the best while Yates was dropped, and Jorgenson was hanging for dear life. Once QS closed the gap to the breakaway, he pulled with the intent to gap Landa but mainly to bring Pog closer to the stage win. He knew Remco was not a rival for Pog. Yes he did not need to gap Landa but crazy things can happen on a GT last day climbing TT.
Movistar vibes definitely the reason why J f'd over Carapaz. You aced it there Benji.
However, what comes around goes around, so this may come to rebound on J at time he may least want.
POGI is a carbon monoxide inhalation machine! WOW!
Get off of Pogi’s case all you haters. Just fuck all the way off!
Another great watch LR. 👊🏼
Patrick must not reading comments on socials. Crazy how many people calling Pog classless and greedy for winning last two stages. Tejay on NBC live tv, Hancapie, Lance and at least half of Danish and US nationals went on rant last two days. 😂
Totally doped. I could give 2 shits how many stages Pogi wins. My problem is that he and his entire team seem to be doped to the gills. Its just not natural to be able ride at a peak level for 5 months. He is not only been at his highest level, but continues to improve. He destroys the field day after day and never seems to be out of breath. I think Lance is suspisious of Pogi and thats what he was warning him about. It not that he winning these stages, its how he is doing it. He is putting a spotllight on himself and the David Walshs in the world are licking their chops. He has made it clear that he is radioactive.
Oh by rhe way he did the same thing in italy last month and in the spring.
There is a reason all of these records are from the 90's, so him smashing these records is just a slap in the face. He is not clean, end of story.
For all those Pog is winning too much: They've forgotten how Jumbo-Visma as a team dismantled Pog on Col du Granon. Jumbo Visma had two guys who could compete for GC and very strong domestiques. Suggesting Pog is winning too much is laughable
Your podcasts have been wonderful this tour de France, thank you Patrick and Benji. Very enjoyable to listen to you both.
I don't know what Remco was doing exactly. Did he think he was gonna drop Vingegaard with 2 attacks of 3-5 seconds? Edit: ok good you addressed it too.
