Tadej Pogacar will win Il Lombardia 2024 with complete certainty being the first cyclist in history to win it 4 times in a row, but that doesn’t sit well with certain people. One of them is Christian Prudhomme, the director of the Tour de France, who literally did not want to deny that the Slovenian is doping in a recent interview. The reasons, in this video.

The UCI doesn't care about doping, obviously – as long as Giannetti gets a pass
They want their heroes! Even if they are closeted junkies.
Selfie Lappartient is cycling's putin
Ask any vet working for race horse owners what makes four legged animals go fast, and test for that
The problem is that Gianetti is making the other teams look unprofessional, especially the French. Why would anyone sponsor a team that is destined to look like the Washington Generals (Harlem Globetrotters opponent)? I think major sponsors are going to start pulling out in the next 10 years.
Why is Marco Pantani always unfairly lumped in with perennial and sociopathic doper Lance Armstrong? FYI 'Uncle Cyclist' – Pantani NEVER ever tested positive for PED's. He was eventually 'suspended' [as is normal practice] for his high level of haematocrit on the penultimate stage of the 1999 Giro D'Italia – which he was winning by a country mile!
Now I am not going to condone 'Il Pirata' – he was clearly on the juice. But he was nowhere near the levels of drug usage of 'Big Lance' or other riders at the time such as Bjarne Riis, Jan Ulrich etc etc. Pantani's ability as a climber [he still holds the record for the THREE fastest ever ascents of the infamous Alpe D'Huez] was as much down to his natural talent and cavalier style as the use of drugs.
Pantani was in all probability 'cheating' – but let's keep some perspective here. His use of PEDs was nowhere near as bad as the bullying and evil Armstrong. I was fortunate to see Pantani 'in the flesh' a number of times and despite his dubious past – he is still best 'pure' climber I have ever seen.
I think you mean eyeballs rather than eyebrows!
I don’t know why they don’t just use statistics to better target testing. We should have the data to make reasonable predictions of the odds against chance of doping or not.
Keep going lads — I doubt you’ll ever achieve a complete cleansing of the pro peleton, but if you can cast doubt on the major Sauce Heads, and perhaps even be instrumental in seeing a couple or three permanently off their bikes, then you will have achieved a great success. It isn’t only barometric chambers and ketone therapy that’s lighting Pog’s fire; I think it’s the dreaded POT SLOVENE — a little bottle that says ‘Drink me!’ in Old Slovenian and transports the drinker into a supercharged cycling wonderland. Anyway, well done, your commentary is getting closer and closer to the bone. And if you come across the recipe for the POT SLOVENE, do let us all know!
Thank you Uncle. another information packed video
No evidence of doping whatsoever…you put here just the same type of BS… spoken by AI…week after week…
Money, money, money, it's so funny, in a cycling world
Pogi just released his training numbers… Not enough smoke and mirrors for me! I love Pogi but everybody is on PEDs these days. Endurance sports are full of them.
Prudhomme can’t absolutely deny cheating, like Verbruggen did. Then look like a mug when the truth comes out.
I predict pogi to be outed by other teams and riders . The greed to win every race by UAE is destroying cycling
<sarcasm> You mean it's not normal to peak from spring to fall? </sarcasm>
Fool me once shame on you fool me twice shame on me
Are they testing these guys?? Or has that been dropped saving $$$? Get rid of rumours and guessing, prove it!!😊
The Pogster is as clean and natural as the competitors in the IFBB Mr Olympia
Best one yet Uncle. We knew UAE and their past team in SDuvail but the entire history since 2008 is quite scary that they are allowed even near a race, same goes with Vino
They are probably clean today. Equipment technology has advanced so much that you don't have to dope the riders when you could dope the bikes. Safer for the riders health.
Are you seriously suggesting that there’s more to his success than shorter cranks? 😂
I suggest the poster of this video do something useful iwith his life instead of stirring shit in order to pay his bills
How he shows clean on every test results? That should be the question.
Only fools believe Pogi. You can't beat for 100km a complete peloton. Pogi never gets tired, never sick, and is mostly a solo rider, yeah and you believe it?😂😂😂😂
"GrandE Boucle" there's an "e" on grande.. ."Grand" is pronounced like "gran"…. just to keep the spellings clean 😀
I’m glad someone else is thinking this too! Soon well find out the truth!
Why focusing only on UAE It Is not that the other guys are clean
It is and has always been the same people in positions of power. How will it ever change. Doin the same thing and expecting different results or outcoms. Ofcourse not. There all doped up. A cyclist claimed that there's a manufacturer of new generation doping in China wich is undetecible by any test or machine. Sounds a little conspiricy theory like yet again it would make perfect sense.
Ricco the “cobra “was great entertainment
You're over-thinking this. We believe in Pog so we can assure ourselves that our £14k bikes are in fact making us 250w more aerodynamic. Don't take that away from us goddammit.
I am always so in awe with the level of detail/research provided on this channel.
I guess if a pro rider has a mail man who is married to a columbian woman whose uncle was a pro cyclist in 1987 who had a sketchy doctor (presumably a dane), Uncle Cycling will find out and tell the world! 😉
Say what you like about the golden age of EPO, at least there was no Rob Hatch or Orla Chennaiou defiling my earholes
So many people defending the Pog.. what idiots! It’s freaking so obvious he’s doped to the eyeballs. 😂😂
Thank GOD! It is CAPTAIN OBVIOUS here to point out what is clearly in front us us all!!!!! DU DUH DUNNNNNNNNNN…….
Yes ….Doping Friend …..a la POGAČAR…. UAE …like ueeee …
I'm amater cyclistst ….
Until he gats caught he's clean. They're all doping. Read ,A rough ride. Please!! Give me a break. Just shut up and let the guys ride. So he's the best athlete amongst a sea of dopers. Imagine how good he must be if he's actually not doping
E chissenefrega, non è l'unico. Che si tenga le sue opinioni. Però siamo alle solite. Senza prove, il doping di Tadey è solo un suo sogno come quello di tanti altri.
Una persona come lui, direttore del TDF, però, non dovrebbe esporsi in questo modo.
Long live Dracula gianetti and moonlight matxin
Todays race performance is another "not natural" performance. Geesh……how the cycling world can watch this and not call it out for what it is …..well…it boggles the mind. I do not know what type of enhancement he is on……but they should at least back of a bit and not make it look so obvious. The UCI says and does nothing!!
Hahahahaha. Chiaramente non vuole che rivinca il Tour in modo… noioso, come quest'anno.
Poverino… può mettersi il cuore in pace che non sarà così.
You are wrong, it's all about marginal gains! 😉🤣
all you whiners just shut up. put up win or be a generous loser be quiet.
Great another cycling hate channel… you're so sad.
So commenter, who are you?
