@@shred3005 because Pogs weaknesses are altitute, long climbs and heat (+accumulated fatigue). This is exactly what this route has been designed to be.
@@joeptube4405No, he won’t. That’s exactly where he struggles. You can’t be a lean, small and an excellent climber and a strong, fast sprinter at the same time. Physics still applies.
Yeah, problem is flat stages are also the most boring. It is fine to have a few sprint stages for the sprinter but imagine 10-15 sprint stages lol. No one would watch.
To be honest, after 2024 we should not make any predictions based on prior years... Literally anything can happen. Pog might be even stronger, Vingegaard should be recovered from the crash but can he match and beat Pog? Evanepoel might finally find support when he wants to fight and chase, Roglic will hopefully not crash out but can he compete with the rest? So many unknowns, and I think the terrain alone is not anti-Pog, rather quite the opposite - he likes climbing even more now!
Am I living in the past right now? Has 2024 season never happened? Mountain finishes and long climbs are supposed to work against Pogacar? Seriously, have you guys even watched this year’s Tour or Giro? It will be a freaking surprise if Pogacar doesn’t win all the mountain finishes, for god’s sake. Yes, he struggled at times in the past. But, also in the past, he didn’t know how to tie his shoelaces. Or how to walk. But as we saw, that was in the past. If Pogacar is anywhere near the form he had in 2024, he will absolutely dominate 2025 Tour.
Pogačar tends to have a bad day on grand tours but he is getting more and more consistent. In 2024 Giro there were no signs of any cracks but in TdF he did suffer on (I think) stage 11, but the rest of the Tour (and the season), he was unbeatable. I think the idea of throwing in more harder climbs to make the Tour more interesting is crazy, if Tadej will be in similar form as this year. We all know his riding style and he will never do this, but in 2025 all he needs to do is beat Vingegaard in two TTs and follow him in mountain stages and the Tour is his. The only thing that can make this tour really interesting is Roglič not crashing in (or before) the Tour and somehow getting to his 2021 / 2022 form.
I doubt that organizers could have designed a course that would have upset Pogi's 1st place this year. As much as I like watching an exciting tour, I hope organizers are not designing courses to counter any rider. Pogi dominated damn near everything this year and he earned it. I don't think its ethical or the organizers job to design courses to favor or penalize a particular rider based on their strengths and weaknesses. I do recall people talking about removing long flat timetrials when Big Mig was dominating and I didn't agree with that either; I believe the courses should be balanced, as much as one can be.
The organizers work nearly two years ahead, this 2025 course selection would have been mostly if not completely finalized while Jonas was the champ and defending champ. I don't think Pogi's dominance last year had anything at all to do with this course selection.
I don't think its the route thats deciding the TDF, at really depends on how good vinegaard is. I beleive that Vingegaard will be on a very high level, and high enough to challenge pogi
This narrative is nonsense! More importantly, if they tailor made a tour for Jonas and he wins, what is exactly does that prove? It proves that he is a limited rider who can only win when all the stars align. That would work AGAINST him in terms of legacy. It would also prove that it takes an entire effort from the organizers to defeat one man. That's ridiculous.
Great point. I must just add that organizers have unofficially designed the route in the past based on the expected outcome, I.e. to maintain crowds and what people want to see. In the Armstrong days, team time trials were especially popular. Fortunately he never won a tour. Pogi on the other hand is like merckx. You can throw one day at him, or 21 days. He's just superior to everyone else.
Or it is designed to be just a different course than last year, to keep the interest of the spectators and to keep the race tight between the 4 favourits till the end. There is no such thing as the perfect rider and I like that they change the route and it's demands. I am not interested in a row compareable to the Armstrong time...
I think Vingegaard will be stronger again in 2025 after full recovery from his accident but Pogacar still to me is favourite no. 1 for the Yellow Jersey next year - he will be prepared for the whole thing very well.
This tour could be won by Remco if he can gain a big time advantage on the time trials then hang on in the climbs . 2024 showed that he has improved his climbing abilities
Actually, the last time Mont Ventoux was a summit finish was in 2013, as the 2016 finish line had to be moved to lower altitude due to the heavy winds blowing at the summit.
I am excited to see Jonas at this year's TDF in top form. In the 2024 edition, he seemed a step or two off after his TBC crash in April. This year's course should provide an exciting challenge for all the teams. I can't wait to see Jonas challenge Pogi for yellow.. If Jonas can't do it, I don't think anyone else will have much of a chance!
Imagine when he comes even more prepared and still crushes the field? This man is the culmination of decades of science and nutrition on training and cycling. Combined with seemingly perfect genetics, this guy is built for it.
Bruh those stages actually favour Pogi as well. He is as good of a climber as Jonas, of not better. Can't w8 for another classic between two all time greats that Jonas and Pogi are 🙌🏼
They altered the course several years to stop Indurain winning. They only stopped him when they allowed a Danish domestique to "suddenly" become almost superhuman. It was only several years later that anyone admiited why. Indurain knew. That's why he retired.
It may make him change his spring season but rest assured Pogi will be ready. Don’t know if Remco can climb this much, unfortunately counting on Primos to crash out. Likely still a two horse race but oh my goodness I’m going to have to tell my boss not to expect me to do anything this July I can’t wait
Pogi has gotten better with the long stages in the heat that used to be his kryptonite. His fueling strategy is also way better. His only 'weak day' on this years Tour was the one where he let Jonas win the stage in the uphill sprint. I'm guessing he was getting data to see what Jonas could do. He also doesn't have the duo of Roglic and Jonas on the same team to ride against. UAE are stronger, Visma aren't as strong. As long as he's in remotely the same shape as this year, he can seperate Jonas and the other guys from their teams at will. Stage 2 will need close attention. Coastal stages and the short sharp climbs will bring interesting racing.
I have read most of the comments. I wonder if all these Pogacar fans are also from Slovenia, if not I would be ashamed for my citizenship. I am from Belgium, living in Italy now, so my heart is with Remco, the Belgian.
Hm... Last year everybody said the exact same thing and even if Jonas wasn't at his top level, Pogi absolutely destroyed every form of opposition. Besides organizers do not create a route focusing on one particular rider, and they spend at least two years to create a route.
fact is that pogacar changed his training routine in last years winter, focussing more on climbing and 3 weeks racing. before Vingegaard came along Pogacar was much better than the rest even with his training focussed less on climbing and 3 week racing and more on classics. now its the other way around, he can and will still win one day races even with training not focussed on them and he needed this change in training to better Vingegaard in 3 week races. im affraid Vingegaard can never get to Pogacars level anymore, ofcourse if Pogacar is 100% healthy. even on his supposed weak point, (multiple) long climbs at altitude, Pogacar is now better than Vingegaard. Vingegaard will probably do better then last year due to his crash back then, but it wont be nearly enough to beat Pogacar. im a Vingegaard fan btw.
Nice, lets hope no one has an accident before and during the tour. would be the best way to see which rider is trully the best. we all have the (Jonas had an accident) argument on the head from this year.
It's design for the yellow jersey to change shoulders often in first 14 days, then the GC Guys will flourish, and I can't see JV ever beating Pogachar again, and I think he has this fear too
That's funny. Remember when sprinters won everything and they changed the green jersey rules? Sagan started winning year after year. So they changed it to make it easier for sprinters to win, and now you can win it without surviving a tiny hill...
Any cycling aficionado who have closely followed the races this season would tell you otherwise. My take is the only chance anyone beating Pogi is Pogi himself not doing the TDF😅
The only TdF course that could break Pog is one on the moon. As long as he doesn’t crash leading up to and during the TdF, he is winning it. I would bet the farm on it.
He will be able to continue doping sufficiently to overcome the course. When you shatter the records set during the doping era, by ridiculous margins, it raises more than a few questions…
The climbs aren’t at poggi’s disadvantage. All around best climber, no questions asked. May have been where he suffered in 2022 but.. poggi now is not the same rider 👍🏼
Watts, you need to take into account that in 2022/3 Tadej was riding almost all by himself against a very strong VLB that attacked at every opportunity. Now, the scenario have changed. UAE is now the strongest team with the strongest rider????
You are bugging mate.. No one is going to DESTORY Pogačar... Pogačar will be doing the DESTORYING like hes been doing... He is an Alien or did you forget?
Ben o Connor might do well this tour his done really well la Velta gives him the confidence he needs I think he might do well Egan Bennell I think he will do well, he did well this year tour hopefully he might get back to his fitness soon
Really? After his improvements from 2023 to 2024 where he noticeable improved his weakest points and it looks like there are none anymore, someone still has the courage to talk about rout profiles that are built to destroy Pogi. Sorry but to me it just sound as a click bait title and it makes me laugh.
You guys think he is not suffering in the races. Wake up. Windegard got yelow, because if Rogljič. If he would be from west of what is supposed to be developed part of the world you would praise him like .
The truth is : Pogi will train harder all his "weaknesses" and UAE will destroy others. Train is the key. But i'm very excited to see the fight between Jumbo with Vingegaard and UAE and the dream team. I think the victory is between the team and not all about the superstar ^^For me, i'm for Pogi, because he's cool, good player and no mercy. Jumbo, is to much calculated, they are like a computer and UAE are like warrior brain ^^
Pogi is my favorite , my heart is vinge ofcource ( being danish ) i would be proud if vinge could stay up there making it the 5 tour between theese two
Nonsense, everything that would be too hard for Pogacar would be even worse for all others. Each one of the top contenders will have to be careful not to squander valuable energy there where it doesn't count. We'll see who is hot and who is not...
Realisticly, there is only one rider who can challenge Pog. And I think Pog will have to be at his very best to keep Jonas behind him in the 2025 TDF. Jonas was just too far off after his crash in the spring of 24 (still finishing second in the GC...). You will see a different Jonas in 2025. Just saying.
Pogacar is the number 1 in the world, not even 1 stage could change that ! unless pogacar is having a terrible day. Even with the best team arround him Vingegaard cant win the tour... The only thing that can beat Pogacar is pogacar himself ;-)
@@kimlolholmnielsen Hi , yes he did except for last year. It was a pitty all tour favorits chrached 2 months before the tour.... Vingegaard, remco end roglic all 3 chrached realy hard a few months before the tour started . So maybe ???
@@peterderidder9922 the only thing can beat pogacar is himself you right because he will also fractured his ribs punctured lungs before the tour same as what happened to jonas this year haha
Big 4? There is no big 4, there’s the Big 2 and then a bunch of plucky antagonists. Remco is not even close to the level in the mountains as Pogi and Jonas and Roglic is heading into the twilight of his career and creates his own bad luck by poor positioning.
Ofcourse Roglic is the past, he had his chance to win, but the way you speak of Remco, just get a life! You speak about the double olympic champion, you speak about the world champion, even TT (2 times in a row) and roadrace. Just get silent!
Imagine what will happen to other riders if pogi is supposed to be destroyed
Yeah bye bye
Yes so why would it be hard for the Pog but easier for Jonas and Remco et al.
@@shred3005 because Pogs weaknesses are altitute, long climbs and heat (+accumulated fatigue). This is exactly what this route has been designed to be.
@@shred3005 coz pog is taller and heavier
@@baumann9551sorry but as of last year pogacar does not have such weaknesses
I think this will only motivate Pogi even more to be perfectly prepared.
Exactly 😂😂
facts he’s gonna take it personally if he knows he’s being targeted like this lmao
Especially if he's not doing the Giro beforehand. He'll cook them in their own pots.
Yes, “prepared.” 💉
@@Chuck-i4h u guys are pathetic and most of all jealous of his performances and with millions of "evidence"😂😂😂😂
ASO is working on the tour two years in advance so when the 2025 was being designed Vingegaard was the defending champ and the current champ.
Great point!
I didn't know that.
Looks like anyone could 'crack' on some of those stages, not just possibly Tadej.
They can not beat Pogi with high mountains. This is his terrain. If they want to beat him, they should make all stages flat.
@@BlueModro 😂😂😂😂👍👍👍

Ok but I 2024 vingeggard wasn't in his prime because he was coming out of an injury. Now that is fully prepared, I think he can really beat pogi
I agree that Jonas can compete against Tadej, when fully prepared. @letsgogothekitchen5823
Destroy? Ha ha ha. Poor choice of words. Challenge I think.

If he can even half keep his form, and not get injured, there is nothing that can destroy him.

Yes and he will go past 5
I don't think its the route thats deciding the TDF, at really depends on how good vinegaard is. I beleive that Vingegaard will be on a very high level, and high enough to challenge pogi
If pogi has no off day, nobody can beat him.
More reason to cheer on Pogi.

Wonderful video. Concise and to the point. For those of us in Canada certified videos this clear. If there a better, please let me know.
I think Vingegaard will be stronger again in 2025 after full recovery from his accident but Pogacar still to me is favourite no. 1 for the Yellow Jersey next year - he will be prepared for the whole thing very well.
This video suggests the Le Tour is targeted at testing Pogi & if that is the case, looking at his form now what about the rest of the Peleton?
This tour could be won by Remco if he can gain a big time advantage on the time trials then hang on in the climbs . 2024 showed that he has improved his climbing abilities
Let us hope for no injuries and crashes to any of the major contenders! I hope Jonas will reclaim the TdF crown, albeit Tadej is a wonderful athlete.
No matter who wins it I hope it’s a close race. The huge time gaps aren’t much fun.
I will be bikepacking from Munich ta la plagne this year. Cant wait to see Jonas in yellow there💪🏼
Actually, the last time Mont Ventoux was a summit finish was in 2013, as the 2016 finish line had to be moved to lower altitude due to the heavy winds blowing at the summit.

still can't imagine, this year pogi is superb

Finger-licking good analysis.
nah, pogi dont care. He gonna dominate it
Dudes just gonna race I don't think he cares what the route is
come on, this route has been made before the last tour france
Well then IF pogi is the greatest of all time it shouldn't matter what the route is.
Exactly. Nobody is perfect and that is totally fine. He will always be an exceptional rider anyways.
They're thinking that he doesn't like very very steep climbs and prefers a more moderate steepness.
Just hoping healthy well prepared riders to have a good battle, no matter who wins.
I have read most of the comments. I wonder if all these Pogacar fans are also from Slovenia, if not I would be ashamed for my citizenship. I am from Belgium, living in Italy now, so my heart is with Remco, the Belgian.
without a Team with strong riders. no one can easily beat Poggy
All Pog has to do is spend a few months in France practicing all the climbs there, this doesn't change anything 😂
In the past years Pogi didn't lose mountain stages because they weren't for him. He losed them because his form wasn't really good.
VINGEGAARD WILL CLAIM HIS THRONE AGAIN
In the past the winner could choose what kind of tour the next 1 will be
I think the steeper climbs are just great for the Tour. Love them.
The times when he was "destroyed" he was sick. Sometimes he got beaten, I agree, but most of them he was sick
Built to destroy? Ha, by the end of the next years Tour the announcers will say "this was the fastest Tour completion ever", as they say every year.
Hm... Last year everybody said the exact same thing and even if Jonas wasn't at his top level, Pogi absolutely destroyed every form of opposition. Besides organizers do not create a route focusing on one particular rider, and they spend at least two years to create a route.
to summarize,i think it will be another remco vs vingegaard while tadej doing his own thing
The only small chance against Pogi is to take all the altitude meters out of the tour
fact is that pogacar changed his training routine in last years winter, focussing more on climbing and 3 weeks racing. before Vingegaard came along Pogacar was much better than the rest even with his training focussed less on climbing and 3 week racing and more on classics. now its the other way around, he can and will still win one day races even with training not focussed on them and he needed this change in training to better Vingegaard in 3 week races.
im affraid Vingegaard can never get to Pogacars level anymore, ofcourse if Pogacar is 100% healthy. even on his supposed weak point, (multiple) long climbs at altitude, Pogacar is now better than Vingegaard. Vingegaard will probably do better then last year due to his crash back then, but it wont be nearly enough to beat Pogacar. im a Vingegaard fan btw.
Nice, lets hope no one has an accident before and during the tour. would be the best way to see which rider is trully the best. we all have the (Jonas had an accident) argument on the head from this year.
But I heard his numbers were better than in 2023, so what gives?
Do remember he is doing 350 Watts at level 2!!
I have watched the odds for Pogi winning the Tour for a few weeks and since the route came out.. they didn’t change.
It's design for the yellow jersey to change shoulders often in first 14 days, then the GC Guys will flourish, and I can't see JV ever beating Pogachar again, and I think he has this fear too
That's funny. Remember when sprinters won everything and they changed the green jersey rules? Sagan started winning year after year. So they changed it to make it easier for sprinters to win, and now you can win it without surviving a tiny hill...
It almost sounds so hard that it will become a defensive race.
The only route that would crack pogachar would be flat stages, it will take ½ way through the 2nd week before the GC Contenders cone to tge fore
With this 2025 tdf course, Pogi will probably be outside top 10! this is easily the tdf for Jonas!
Any cycling aficionado who have closely followed the races this season would tell you otherwise. My take is the only chance anyone beating Pogi is Pogi himself not doing the TDF😅

He will be able to continue doping sufficiently to overcome the course. When you shatter the records set during the doping era, by ridiculous margins, it raises more than a few questions…
The only course that would render Pog out of the running would be 100 km flat stages with a tailwind
The title of this video is hilarious…the climb doesn’t matter only with fitness of the riders
The only way they could stop Pog is just have a totally flat route
Makes no sense to make it harder when he is the best. No one else would finish near him as he pulls away the harder it gets.
The climbs aren’t at poggi’s disadvantage. All around best climber, no questions asked. May have been where he suffered in 2022 but.. poggi now is not the same rider 👍🏼
Watts, you need to take into account that in 2022/3 Tadej was riding almost all by himself against a very strong VLB that attacked at every opportunity. Now, the scenario have changed. UAE is now the strongest team with the strongest rider????
You are bugging mate.. No one is going to DESTORY Pogačar... Pogačar will be doing the DESTORYING like hes been doing... He is an Alien or did you forget?
How could this destroy Pogi and not obliterate the peloton?
Hotness works more effectively if the goal is to destroy Pogačar
Crack TP? Some of those stages will destroy 90% of the peloton. They are trying the break the whole group! Wonder why doping lurks in the background?
Ben o Connor might do well this tour his done really well la Velta gives him the confidence he needs I think he might do well Egan Bennell I think he will do well, he did well this year tour hopefully he might get back to his fitness soon
Is this video using an ai voice over?

isnt the tour route planned a couple of years in advance? so the whole "built to destroy" title seems to be a bit clickbaity
Big 4? There is no big 4, there’s the Big 2 and then a bunch of plucky antagonists. Remco is not even close to the level in the mountains as Pogi and Jonas and Roglic is heading into the twilight of his career and creates his own bad luck by poor positioning.
Ofcourse Roglic is the past, he had his chance to win, but the way you speak of Remco, just get a life! You speak about the double olympic champion, you speak about the world champion, even TT (2 times in a row) and roadrace. Just get silent!
No worries for him…his doctors are already getting him ready!
plot twist: Pogi suggest this route
If they just make it harder and harder, the best team with the strogest supporters will profit even more from it.
As he didn't drop everyone else on every single mountain top finish in the Giro and the Tour this year 😂
