The other teams needed chaos before/on the climb for them to have had any chance at beating Pog. As soon as he entered at the front it was a foregone conclusion.
6375 is his total yearly points (ie. from this time last year untill now). His UCI points this year come to 3518. Still impressive. This would make him the 14th ranked team on his own (above Bora and under Movistar).
@@MDP1702 Ah that makes way more sense. Thanks for pointing that out
😊
Like every year, I tuned into Fleche Wallone with 150m to go.
I guess it's the classic I never really watch for that reason, I can get all the important parts in a 5m summary.
I fell asleep with 50km to go
Im so lucky i accidentaly tuned in at the base of the last mur
couldve just skipped it this year as you knew the winner before it started
Amazing by Skjelmose!
It will be interesting to see what effect all these classics have on his TdF performance. Relatively unprecedented (I think) for such a dominant GC rider in the current era to also dominate all these classics. UAE look a better a team this year too
Pog's shoulders when he goes have to one of the great movements in sport at the moment. Like watching Bolt ease up and smile at the line.
🔀Would’ve been fun to see how it would’ve played out if Bardet’s first attempt hadn’t ended with an uphill brake check. Not Mike Woods’ fault at all, just would’ve been more interesting.
The best cycling race analyst.. Hands down..
No knuckheads drama 😅
This race was about second position, and Skjelmose won
Skjelmose will be interesting to follow in the years to come
It is wild how quickly Pog creates the gap on those steep ramps when he decides to go…
I want to know why the drugs they’re on suit his physiology so much better.
@@jimrustle270 He climbed in 3:10. There have been faster times
@@DaM.1 yeah not from this one. Stage 8 2021 TDF comes to mind
@@jimrustle270 roglic has done better performances, Vingegaard has done better performances. He was just better *on that day*. People lack context.
@@DaM.1 Pog climbed in the same time as last year.
A nice winner for the records of this race ! Everyboddy who knows sommething about cycling knew pogacar was the man to beat ! He is just a worldclass rider ! And he even have lots of time to make progress. Maybe remco commes the most close to pogacar, he is also a worldclass rider . Vingegaard won the tour because the backup he had from his whole team. Pogacar have learned from the tour of 2022. He will not make the same mistakes annymore ;-) .
Power and endurance, superhuman.
Up until the last 200-300 meters when everyone is out of saddle, Pogacar is upfront seated. Then when he kicks, no one can answer. Vollering was exactly the same.
Tadej Pogacar the number one 💪
Pog seems impervious to crashes. Seriously when was the last time he crashed, during that descent with Jonas in TdF last year?
Small crash at San Remo, and a more significant one with that ridiculous Maciejuk crash at Flanders. Also he got wiped out pretty hard in that crosswind crash in Strade Bianche 2022. So no, not immune to crashes, but he's a slippery sumbitch and always seems to come out relatively unscathed.
I wondered where he was in the crash - but he's either blessed from the heavens or has some ether real sixth sense coupled with so cool as ice bike handling.
Pog crashed more than Roglic last year. In fact, he never crashes too hard and at critical moments
His positioning and timing is some of the best in the peloton
Pogačar is kind of invincible to crash, but on the other hand Roglič is attracted to it xD
Damn im sad Skjeldmose didn't win this. maybe next year, if Pog dont ride it xD
Seeing 17% on the screen is nuts! I did some hill repeats today ~10% at the steepest, and I was getting worn down quickly and painfully.
Thanks so much for all your coverage. Love your channel and videos!
man this dude is incredible to watch
and pogacar is ok to
Well done for Pog to win when it was impossible for him to do so. Good call Pat.
Great Content as always! LR really got me into watching cycling.
As a Non-english native I struggle with some of the words you use in the podcast sometimes. So as a public service,would you mind explaining the following phrases:
-flase flat
-fake news climb
-echelons
-"shas patat"😅 (I can tell what it means from context but how is it spelled?)
Thank you Patrick and Benji!Keep up the great work!
False flat refers to a gradual uphill road usually around 1-2%
Fake news climb means a climb is insignificant compared to what it may seam
Echelon refers to the groups that form in crosswinds
Don't know what the last one means. Hope this helps.
@@Dqoi I would consider fake news climbs to be a climb where the average gradient (say 6%) hides the fact that there are some very steep sections and some shallower sections. So the climb is much harder to ride than the avg % would suggest.
Echelons are a diagonal formation of riders caused by trying to stay in the draft in crosswinds. These are significant because the width of the road limits how many people can get draft in an echelon, so splits can form.
Finally, a “chasse patate” is a French slang term (translates to: chasing potatoes) that basically means a pointless chase, i.e. when someone is trying to catch a group ahead but gets stuck dangling behind that group.
@@leoturgenov7440 Ah I see. Thanks for the clarification.
Excellent. Can’t wait till Sunday.
That's Pogi Power!
I felt Mas would be more competitive than Landa, considering he beat Pog at Giro dell'Emilia last year and matched him almost till the finish of Il Lombardia as well as a couple of the uphill finishes at Vuelta Andalucia.
landa is in form, mas isn't.
Mas hasn't really been at a great shape for a few weeks now imo, still pretty decent, but coming just short when it matters.
🔥Spin to win!🏁🏆💪
Is it just me who are suspecious. Some riders winning everything and winning in style like in the old doping days. In Roubaix they were almost an hour faster than before. I think its crazy.
Bardet got really unlucky
Lafay is on fire lately
Pogacar is the greatest cyclist this world has ever seen
Damn didn’t know Pog was so close to crashing
Sooooooo.... what was that you told Benji in the Amstel Gold podcast about Pog in this race? "Starts or doesn't. Same outcome?" He defied expectations again! (And I'm not even a Pog fanboy.)
"Can anyone beat this man?" That says it all.
20% gradient and Pogi is in the saddle and SPINNING. would love to know what gears he was riding
This. Or maybe his torque is insane...
Good to see a vid
Pog is the man💯💯💯 Such a great rider too watch 💥💥💥
Most dominant since Armstrong
@@jonbrown853 lol
pogacar looking untouchable the closer we get to the grand tours, almost perfect start to the 1st half of the season, not many i can say or see who could challenge him consistently at the moment, unless they are holding back for the tours, but i'm an ex pro elite & you have to test the waters as it were in order to gauge your own form against the stronger riders,
Skjelmose need to learn position, still
Great second! After King Podacar.
Really hope Evenepoel has something
To being a challenge for Tadej😜🔝❤️
I think his position was partly because of his pacing strategy - had he been further in front of the field earlier, he might not have lasted to the line. Just a guess from me ofc, and probably yes he could have had even better positioning and pacing too.
Beautiful change in strategy.
Everyone expecting Pog to go long so pushing their numbers and trying to stay right in front to defend. They burn matches while Pogacar cools his heels back at wheel 20 to 50.
TDF is going to have much more closely matched teams this year. Without Roglic, it's going to be tough for Jonas.
And now the big question: who will take second place tomorrow in Liege? 😂No in all fairness, should be a great battle between Remco and Tadej. Two of the absolute biggest names in cycling today, one of the only few races they are racing head to head this season. Going to watch all day.
Didn't you say that he would not win?
Yes impossible
Reeeeeeeemco off the mountain
Shout out to Rorger Adria, monster performance!!
Skjelmose still only 22, very exciting rider 🔥🔥🔥
Scary Pog
Terbaik lah Poggy
Pogs got some great juice in those bottles
Those EF Easypost Lab71 SuperSix's are soooooo good looking. 3:02 #Dreambike
shot of the day was PL glowering at the side of the road doing his best Darth Vader
3:01 Jimmy Jansen (alpecin) broke his collarbone and some ribs in that crash.
Pogacar is tired, now in April.
Does he fade last 6 days of tour?
maybe. he has to give people a chance somehow
Everyone stand up on the bike, except Pog 😳
I heard "thankfully he crashed in Amstel Gold Race too" and I was trying to figure out the sarcasm lol.
is Powless running speedplay pedals? 2:59
Bicycle
indeed🚴
goated machine
I agree
Big if true
Bike yes.
Does pog run shorter pedal cranks???
Looks like he's turning on a smaller radius...
Hmmmmmmm
Saw a video just a couple days ago about how Pog drastically changes his bike setup almost every race, depending on what the specific race demands. So if you saw that, very possible.
World tour teams please have a plan and try something on LBL.
Pogacar with a full team looks good at evens for tour de france? Been doing double bets with him non stop for months. As long as his team and him stays fit and he doesn't have significant crash can't see him not winning tour. Last year no team second week and a misguided solo push on a super hot day lead to him blowing up... Don't see that happening again unless he is pushed to his limit on the wheel of vingegaard.. Thoughts??
I also expected Pogacar to have the advantage this Tour, but after seeing the values Vingegaard pushed in Basque on even short climbs, I am not so certain anymore. It will be interesting to see how things play out.
Have not watched vingaard this year but pog is looking great , as well as a solid team . I'm sure these classics will not effect pog tdf chances he will rest plenty in between. Vingaard or pog no one else around .
I'm going for pog this year with better team support to give him the win . He is tge best rider I have watched , he makes his own luck
Ah man, really sad about Pidcock's form. I know he had a big/notable set back with the concussion but really hoped he'd smash this.
Pidcock said his legs were still suffering from the last race when he tried to keep up with Pog.
People are saying Pogacar is the new Eddy Merckx, is that a fair assessment?
easier to follow a serial victor like Tadej. a pause from arrogant riders of recent past.
Worry that Pogacar has hit the classics so hard this season so that if he doesn’t win the Tour again he has a cushion to say the year was still a success. Obv this is a generational year, but while he’s doing “short climbs” Jonas has a 2mth advantage on pure Tour prep
I think pog will be fine for tdf
I don’t think he’s winning to play off a potential tour loss, winning all of the classics and one day races and still winning grand tours will put him in serious contention for goat status, he’s trying to build that legacy and you can’t just do that by winning the tour every year
👏✨
The commentary of these videos is so hard to understand. All words are glued together
come on mate u said this race last year that pog is the most overrated rider. apology time i guess
I agree he doesnt realy like Pogačar, I guess its because he works for Jumbo Visma.
@@markocimrmancic4308 yeah its personal if he aint apologise
Pog gonna win Sunday also.
no amstel gold?
It looked way too easy, everyone knew Pogs was coming for the W
Crazy how the others were all out of the saddle whilst Pog was just sitting there and did it so easily in the end. No contest. But yes, UAE did a great job controlling the race to make the result inevitable.
uae have really set blueprint if you can put together team capable these all around gc generation remco roglic, jonas, powless, mas, higuita, the reason they win GT no mystery they are delivered to climb at pace and are able to hold high speed until everyone else drops or they push on. While guys like valverde, kreuziger , gilbert even at worlds was delivered to botto but UAE are doing sprint style leadouts Flanders great example knowing if speed is flying nobody has endurance and climbing ability of tadej to maintain and others drop same with amstel again big diffrence has been how solid his team have been executing the bjerg and oliveira leadout where tadej blew apart flanders will be blueprint for guys like powless, jorghenson maybe who arent fro slow speed able to power up like with kick of wout or VDP but could hold a high speed for longer on climb. If JV were to do same net year either Jonas or especially Primoz could easily win. They have to keep powder dry like tadej though he does make it all look so easy. Just observation with this generation
Pog on the juice?
His famous personal scientific trainer has coached in some legendary teams
Tiesj in a better position, Romains attack not getting blocked... could have been something. Was still a nice race, enjoyed riding while watching. Wish the commentators would take the opportunity to talk more about some smaller teams and riders... was some repetition in the talking points.
Could you please not spoil the result in the thumbnail and title?
Even if I deliberately don't click on your video until I've watched it, these things can potentially reveal the result when RUclips randomly shows your video to me.
Pogacar is tiny
Yet there’s a lankiness to his body
weak field today and nobody seems to have the guts to attack UAE today
we got pro riders in 2nd and 3rd place in today's race who are basically admitting in post-race interview that they were not going for a 1st place!!!
If I timed it correctly (don't exactly know when the timing normally starts), it was a pretty slow climb up the mur, more than 20" slower than the record. Again, I might have started timing too early, I am not sure. Can't find anywhere else the time for this year.
Also the gaps this year for top 10 where the closest since 2016.
So a nice performance of Pogacar, but nothing dominant either. A good Roglic, Alaphilippe, even Teuns would have likely beaten him.
Theirs an entry fee on the day to walk up that hill for spectators ..
[Mur de Huy] Subtitles: Murder Weed
Poga rides the other stallions
He is the headache of anyone..
on sunday.... no pogi no remco will win😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Merci.les substances toxiques.....
What is a murder-we?
Cant wait to see Pog make that little man named remco cry and whine again lmao.
what is this commentary about? I mean, speaking about the silence of the race. No sound of the race. So this is nonsense.
This is why I don't like cycling right now, Tadej is undoubtedly the best rider right now. Just destroying with pure power.
He was sitting while most of the field was emptying their tanks.
This is why I love cycling now. I want to see the likes of Roglic, Alaphilippe, Wout, Jonas etc.do everything in their power to beat him. Remember how Jumbo attacked as a group in the Tour last year?
Time to study top tier riders while having no team to even remotely apply this
Ne pas opéré cela ce soigne
One worst the worst line up in Ardennes Classics this time . Not a great era in matter of show, one dude who win everything even Cobbles Classics it's pretty suspicious. I had this feeling with UAE or Bahrain since have been founded that at one point they will " create" monsters.
Pogacar is juiced. The whole team is suspect.
Can you tell the source of your claim ?
Considering quite a lot of riders perform less well upon joining or do better after leaving UAE, it seems highly unlikely. If any team would be juiced, it most likely would be JV (though I don't say they are).
It’s the usual man-baby response with absolutely no evidence Loren 🤷♂️
How many tdf winners in last 20years have not had some drug suspicion on them including medical exemptions
When you have evidence please share... until then the rest of us will just enjoy
Pauvre cyclisme
Oust le nouveau amstrong
Pogacar sold his soul to Satan
V good highlights done here
Why not learn how to pronounce pogacars name?
Then you shorten his name and call him pog and mispronounce that too. Why not say correctly?
Pidcock again showing why he is the most over-rated rider in pro cycling
Why? He won Strade Bianchi this year, was 3rd in Amstel. He is doing good.
is Pog the GOAT cheat?
Every year the same boring story: Huge peleton together at the bottom of the final climb at Huy, then sprint for the last 100 meters. Totally boring like at the Tour de France.
