Bardet always looking out for riders around him warms my heart.
Kuss is such a superdomestique that in this Grand Tour he is even taking the red jersey stress off his mate’s back. “No need to worry about press and all that stuff, you guys get your legs up and I will take care of GC things..”
I really hope Primoz and Jonas let him have the win if possible. He deserves it.
@@suckieduckiedya think they could do that to him, break up the team to go every many for himself?
Unless Kuss blows up, he's got this nah?
@@suckieduckieThey absolutely will
@@suckieduckie Primoz already has three Vueltas and a Giro and Jonas has two Tours. They both seem like nice people and good teammates so I would imagine as long as working for Kuss doesn't risk the team losing the red jersey they will work for him as hard as they can
@@quarkonium3795 And they have all those titles mainly due to the hard and perfect work of Kuss! And even the team as a whole has a lot to benefit from this. They will go down in history as a super squad. Kuss was the domestique in every GC victory so far, that was a lot to be talked about. But if this year they make the GC trifecta with a different leader, now that’s hard to beat!
Complete respect for Remco to really turn it around mentally and physically for an incredible win
They let him go be a he’s no threat to GC😅
@@thuthukanindlovu1959 Still incredible performance. Whats your point?
@@thuthukanindlovu1959There were like 20 guys in the breakaway who wanted to win. Just watch the start how may teams wanted to be in the breakaway. UAE tried to catch them but couldn’t. Just because you dislike Remco, you don’t have to discredit him of this incredible performance.
@@thuthukanindlovu1959 bro give some respect!
@@thuthukanindlovu1959I agree. Question is: If he was a threat, would he be able (would TJV let him) to pull up this victory? No way right? Yes it was a good show, but only because he was allowed.
Emberrassingly short R roll for this Remco win
couldn't agree more with a statement
Embarrassingly short. Disrespectful.
I think Remco cracked yesterday and when he realized that he could no longer contend for GC, he took it easy losing so much time that Jumbo would let him go on today's escape stage, which he did magnificently. This reminded me of Yates' dominance in Giro a few years back when he sprinted and won 3-4 stages before he cracked badly and Froome launched 60+ km attack to win the stage and the Giro as well. This also reminded me of Pogacha who cracked on this year's TdF "I was dead" but still came second as he was paced by Soler to the finish, totally spent. Even the best could crack, so Remco was no exception.
Pogi didnt come 2nd during the "i'm dead" stage
Also Evenepoel looked good when he finished yesterday, clearly he was recuperating already during the race.
@@alvinrisdianto I think they meant second overall rather than second on the stage
It was really strange to see someone with a saddle soar getting fourth and another who is sick only loose 7 minutes and Remco who has no issues reported loosing 27 minutes while talking with his team mate riding side by side with him up hill. It is clear that Remco has serious mental issues. I have said it before. He seems to put way too much pressure on himself.
Amazingly Jonas never cracks..I wonder why…DOPING!!!
Anyone who rides a lot understands you can feel great most days but not everyday. Sometimes bad legs just happen without explanation. Great to see Remco feeling better today.
True. But last tdf uae didnt find bad legs day for vingegaard
Problem for riders like Evenepoel is they lose 10-20 minutes on a bad day, Vingegaard loses 30s to 1m on his worst days.
There’s bad days and there’s completely blowing up, this is Remco’s weakness as we stand and what I’m sure ye will work on. If you look at the other top guys they have bad days but they’re still there or there abouts. Remco’s race got lost on one day. He needs to chill and become more consistent
But normally if you have bad legs it’s a sign of weakness. It’s very unusual to be one of the weakest in a race on one day and then being the far best rider the next day.
that screencap @6:11 of all three musketeers stalking Ayuso got a cackle out of me
Love your videos mate thanks a lot!
I'm so glad Remco was feeling like himself today. Go Remco ❤
Was hoping this one would start with "Remco's back. Back again" like the one for the previous stage he won
Was hoping this one would start with " Remco let him go, Remco forget about him, Remco no longer GC"
Wait. Where did he go..? Did he pop home for lunch
Bloody hell I love this channel!
Hard to see Roglic or Jonas break away from Kuss to steal his jersey, after all he’s done for both of them. So unless he collapses then he’ll carry the jersey to the end. Which will make him even more loyal and hard working in the grand tours to come.
Or on another team, since he's now a GC contender. Don't see him caring any bottles in the near future..
He will leave jumbo, but at a grand tour winner 🎉
Jonas is a little pouting hissy fit
I once knew superman Indurain to ride for Pedro Delgado, after which he won the tour several times. Everything is possible.
All signs say he’ll happily stay with TJV. Why would he want to leave the best team in the world, likely for some years to come, as long as he’s happy there?
They’re missing Pogacar fr
The race would be complete if he was in. All the other big GC guys are in except for O'Connor, Rodriguez, and maybe Gall.
Also the Yates twins.
And Yates
That’s what happens when you build a team around one single person
I don’t see O’Connor as top ten GC rider
@@Judewilkinsonjfk Yeah I forgot about the Yates bros
Ayuso has n't given up at all. Searching
For weakness in JV. Last run for Gesink
Much underrated, will be missed😜🔝❤️
Nope, he has decided to go on for another year.
Going to retire at the end of the 24 season.
The Condor of Varseveld will soar for one more year.
@@brippieWow, I missed that. Nice!
Thank you from Truckee California.
Sepptember. Smile.
that clip from 7:08 to 7:25 is just so damn good. i think all of us could see a bit of ourself in bardet wrestling that bike to stay on remco's wheel
Best highlights ever!!!👌👌👌👌
Excellent commentary young man,ciao
Impressive to see remco able to turn it on today ...
Huge respect for Remco...the mental toughness to get off the canvas after a public humiliation yesterday. No wonder he was in tears. So impressive..💪🔥
Unless Kuss can't keep up with the GC riders, I don't believe Vingegaard or Roglič will try to go for the win anymore
It can fall into their lap if they follow Ayuso or Mas. Which is what you are also saying I guess.
@animetributes6996 Yes! And even then - if Kuss has a bad day - can u just abandon the red jersey?! One of them have to stay with him.
Our Almeida is sick. May be next week, if he gets better.
Well he was better today 👍
Thanks
Don't think there is a team that will beat Jumbo Visma in this race They can control UAE and Remco at will
Enjoy the efforts of the riders...what they do or don't do is irrelevant
Epic GC Soler moment
Remco was anointed by TJV at stage 14....the TJV big boys are recovering on that stage....toying with Ayuso ha ha ha ha
This is eerily reminiscent of Floyd Landis TdF 2006 Stage 17, ether.
You know TJV is the hotboi team when you can only recognize them from their yellow forks. #AllTheJerseys
They have 2 out of 5, now 1 of 5. #theonejersey
@@hochwurden5388 You're missing van Baarle in the Dutch National Champs jersey, and Valter in the Hungarian. If Kuss wins and Jonas gets the KOM jersey then only Roglic, Tratnik and Gesink are wearing yellow in Madrid.
@@hendrixinfinity3992And Kelderman too (-;
@@hendrixinfinity3992 fair point. But ill have to deduct Rogla (not only cuz will he prob crash), since its always unzipped! Hes wearing it more like a Cape XDXD
Organise an interview with Cosmo Catalano. He was.the guru of YT cycling reviews a decade ago. I'd enjoy a podcast interview between Media Personality types once a month. Even ex riders. How is so and so spending their time.
Why were Lennert Van Eetvelt and Jonathan Castroviejo never mentioned, no camera time? Casually mentioned on GC?
Bardet wants to join Quickstep as a domestique for Remco
Vois Sur Ton Chemin (techno remix) intensifies...
19 minutes down, but at least, the best looking "helmet strap tan-line' 🤭🤭
Astonishing turnaround for Remco...remarkable that he was pedalling squares the day before, to now have diamonds in his legs. Wish my physiology behaved like that 🤔
Pogacar had a bad day on stage 5 and a great day on stage 6, and unlike Remco yesterday, he couldn't just take it easy in the end.
Evenepoel was a beast today
Soon to be 'tamed' by a hive of terror bees🐝🐝🐝
@@savagepro9060he already lost but still big credit for his performance today
I didn’t see, did he talk about what the hell happened yesterday?
@@mjtplihe just said he didn’t have the legs
So many fucking people are not understanding that he saved his legs yesterday when he knew the gc battle was over for him. Is that really so hard concept to grasp?
So many fucking people are not understanding that he has a HUGE mouth
Yep.
ha ha ha, so he is nowhere at GC...bad excuse. You think that fucking TJV big boys will sleep with him?....dream on...
Remco needs a better team
Looks like Remco is now target the KoM instead, given how hard he went today. Doubt he can keep this performance up in the upcoming stages, but it would be epic if he somehow does.
Hes going to stage wins and KOM Jersey. And hes probably win 1 more stage and the KOM Jersey in my eyes. Thats an way high level GC guys try to approach an Grand Tour if their GC fails.
Did UAE and Ayuso really think they can beat Roglic, Kuss and Vingegaard? Asked me the whole stage what their plans are
It would all make sense if Ayuso, Soler, Almeida and Remco were riding for Moviestar
They probably know their chance is slim. But they are there, they have to try something. They probably didn't think Remco was going to get in the breakaway (who would?). Once the missed that split, there isn't much they can do except to try something random. To be honest their attempt today was as good as any other way they could have attempted.
I suspect they were testing if they could break Kuss
They might have been able to if their tactics were not so stupid. Jumbo had a hard day yesterday and Ayuso and Soler are pretty good but they just can't seem to figure out how to race tactically
@@xx765They only need to break one of them and Ayuso is on the podium. Definitely worth trying.
@LR you missed a BIG opportunity for "The WORST Tactics I have ever SEEN in Cycling #5" here
We have seen this before when there is no clear leader in the UAE team........
Didn’t Floyd Landis have a similar two days?
When tf did you get a quarter million subs LR?? Fantastic! Its weird how the LRCP has so many fewer
super weird vuelta isn't it?
"with Oliveira who is also a truck" 😆😆😆
Bardet not in the top 10 GC but he seems like a GC to me.
What is with all the horrendously toxic comments in this chat? People hating on Evenepoel like he's blown up an orthanage. Learn to respect the sport and the riders that make it great. Enjoy watching it and be polite with others fgs.
If you understand psihology you know Remco is not a good person…that is why so many of us hates him…no one hates Kuss, Roglic,…Because they are great guys…And at the end of the day, Remco is not top tier cyclist…he can only dream about level of Pogi, Jonas and Roglic…
@@ks-li4ic Your English says it all about your so called knowledge about psychology.
Day 2 of WTF IS A KILOMETER 🦅🦅🦅#gckuss
I am trying to understand if the Jumbo team is super strong or all the other teams are super weak.
Well: Jumbo brought the reigning Giro AND Tour winners. As well as a "domestique" who regularly drops all but at most a handful of the world's very top GC contenders.....
The others aren't weak. JV is the current Team Sky.
BOTH 🐝🐝🐝💪 vs
Kelderman, Valter, Gesink... no slouches either. Kelderman, JVs 4th best climber here, would be #2 on quickstep 😂
@@bradw7457
Jumbo brought their 4 strongest climbers to this race, Valter is likely their 6-7th strongest climbers, Gesink is incredibly overperforming too. So I'd say, they send a really strong team. VB is maybe the main rider not really performing at normal level imo, but still decent.
UAE also send a stacked team, but to even up with TJV, they should have send Pogacar too and Vine crashing out hurt them massively.
JV laughing at the end " Remco is going back to 1 day races after this one boys"
Remco racing against who ????
himself and his big mouth
Remco made a Floyd Landis today
except noone was chasing him....
@@gabrielshansenExpect 20 riders in the breakaway. Just watch the start of the stage and how many guys wanted to be in the group, this stage was one that many wanted to win.
@@gabrielshansenapart from the other 20 riders in the GC, most of the UAE team, and a few JV riders until they realised they weren’t strong enough to catch him. Let’s not forget that Remco effectively rode solo for 100k, including on the flat sections . There is no way any of the JV riders could do that.
Remco got that BB a day too late.
IYKYK.
Timing is everything to stay on that peak.
We're all patiently awaiting the Remco tainted BB video from D Rider.
Love him or hate him Remco is the only genuine threat to the current TDF duopoly of Pogačar & Vingegaard. Hopefully he takes some good learning from this Vuelta and can be a third protagonist at the 2024 Tour. 🎉
I have to disagree. At this point Ayuso and perhaps Uijtdebroeks look like the real threats. I fear Remco will always have that off-day -- I've just not seen that he can recover at the level Vinge, Pog and Rog can when they peak. Doesn't mean he can't, I've just not seen.
@@Jan-se1ndHe just showed 1 year ago that he can...
He would need another team. Not only for the teammates but for preparation. Jumbo managed to create a monster from a guy who was nothing 3 years ago, this is pure science. I don't think Lefevere has this rigourous approach.
I think if Pogacar's preparation is not adjusted before the Tdf 2024, he wont keep up with Jonas for three weeks. Ever since Jonas took over from Primoz in the latter half of the 2021 Tdf, he has not been in serious trouble (i know that Pogi beat him on the line/the final k a couple of times, but never got more than a few seconds advantage)
@@fautqucabele2070 Remco went eye to eye with Roglic this season at the Tour of Catalunia and last season at the Vuelta. Remco also mentiones in his Interview with the Lanterne Rouge Podcast that Quick-Step already made improvements in that area this season and he thinks they can catch up in the future.
What about Bahrein? They were awesome in the last part of the stage 😂😂 (and I am a Landista!)
People speculating Remco intentionally gave 27 mins to get stage wins but seeing him that emotional after the win tells me otherwise. I really wonder what may have happened yesterday 😢
Yea that's a horrible take. Evenepoel will try for the Tour de France in 2024. The 27 minutes in the Vuelta means he arrives at the Grand Depart in France as a broken man.
you literally said in another comment he was recuperating during the 27min stage@@animetributes6996
Nobody chasing him so why worry about Remco's ride.
never understand what UAEs were doing during all GTs
My big Q is why did Remco lose to much time yesterday?
ggwp eagle of Durango
probably realised he was out of GC contention and conserved as much as possible to try to create action in other stages, seems that action came early haha
Remco Redemption. What a monstrous mentality from the main man. Inspiring.
Will Jumbo Visma try to get Vingeraud back into Polka Dots?
I think they will try, but 3 men on the podium is their priority
@@olivernielsen1131 it's beyond priority, it is a MUST
They wont.
JUMBO has no interest in controlling all of the race for that jersey.
@@savagepro9060 yes and therefore they won't send Vingegaard up ahead to pick up kom points, as that would be risking his GC
@@olivernielsen1131 They want to WIN ALL three grand tours in ONE calendar year, and that might take a heavy dose of TEAM effort
RE sees writing on the wall yesterday and switches to salvage something stage win mode, says ok loose a heap of time and they will let me go. He’s monster y’all.
Red Jersey is like an on-and-off carrot on a stick for Remco! Blind but hard working donkey!
I think it is hard for him to stay feeling engaged. TJV looks like they are making taking time back really hard and demoralizing
@@KelvinSuddith well said!
@@KelvinSuddithtime for the princess to ‘toughen up’ then… It’s not going to get any easier during his career, especially if he wants to race the TdF.
Kuss all the way now to Madrid 💪
I’ll be very disappointed if you do not mention (or have a running count) Lopez getting denied begging for water from everyone he passed standing on the roadside!!😂🤣
Not too hot. Man had 46 showing on my garmin at the start 🥵
For some it takes 3 days to resurrect , for Remco it took less than 24h 😂 . I know he won with the approval of the holy Jumbo-Visma trinity, but that is another story. The point is he rose like a phoenix from the ashes, which is almost unexplainable physically ( many will question this ) but mentally it is possible to be empty, dead and burried one day and have a fighting spirit the next. Not everyone, but real Champions, Yes . ✌️❤️
It was a fantastic show. But it was mostly that. The net gain of this Vuelta will be negative for him and SQ. Doesn't mean he's not a great rider, he's just not a great GT rider. At least not yet.
"..almost unexplainable physically ( many will question this )..."
The sheer magnitude of the overnight reversal, almost had a bit Floyd Landis ring to it....
OTOH: Today was usual Remco. Or, at least, "usual Remco after he had a rest day while everyone else had their hardest day in the saddle." Yesterday was when Remco was completely off pace. Not today. Not sure what ailed him yesterday. ( I'm guessing; and only that purely guessing; lack of sleep from being nervous about the massiveness of the upcoming stage amidst all that competition. One can lay in bed spinning forever about tactics when faced with the JV trifecta he has to take on almost singlehanded.....) Whatever it was, today he was back, rested. Remco as we are used to seeing him.
Holy Jumbo Visma trinity 👍😅
@@Jan-se1ndhe has already won a GT. Neither Roglic, Vingegaard or Kuss could ever do what Remco did today: 100k in the attack , virtually solo, in a mountain stage with 3 huge climbs. All those JV riders can is sit in the wheel until 5k from the finish on the last climb and then gain some time. As a team they are stronger, but as individuals they cannot match Remco. Only Pogacar can, as he shown in the TdF and in one day classics.
@@hvhvgitaarDoes that mean he's still in contention for the overall?
Don't get me wrong, Remco is a marvelous rider, I just doubt he's a marvelous GC rider in Grand Tours.
I became a Remco fan today.
Really would love to know what happened yesterday with Remco. SEEMS like lack of sleep.
Watch his interview after the race.
@@Knofris Yeah but he said that he didn't sleep well last night, not the night before.
@@Norhod My bad i actually read the comment wrong and then yours, too. Sorry from my side here😂
As usual: 💊🩸💉
No resurerrection after yesterday...Just more questions raised... He is stage rider...not GC
He's 23. Plenty of time to grow into it
@@simonkurz4466 Remco fans recurring excuse -->> He's 23 years old, he has time
Meanwhile Pogacar exists, compare the two riders when Pogi was 23. Remco is a second grade GC rider, it is time for Belgium to accept this fact.@@savagepro9060
@@savagepro9060It’s not an excuse, he simply said that he has enough time to be a better GC rider. The other guy pretends like he can’t change direction of his career, when in fact he’s only 23. I think people like you genuinely lack brain cells to read and understand at the same time.
@savagepro9060 I'm not trying to excuse him. He can't beat Jonas or Pogi in GTs at the moment, but to say he is not a GC rider is ridiculous. Also being a fan of someone doesn't have to be a dick measuring contest, please grow up.
Certo che l’AUE.. dorme.. Ninna nanna 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 che figura
Of course Remco won, one stage ago he had a rest day with 30minutes behind top guys…Jonas is doping like a race horse, especially for Tdf
I love Remco and I am proud as Belgium but this reminds me a lot of Floyd Landis....😢
UAE are trying to be the new Movistar
Tour Landis 2006 remake
Did you know that if GC Kuss wins this Vuelta he'll be WORLD CHAMPION too becauce he will gave beaten the best riders in the world then, which are nearly all here
The World Championship is 1 race. Last one was in Scotland and Van der Poel won...
@@adrianbuck8772I think this was a joke
Only thing is that the actual World champion is not there 😂😂
@@adrianbuck8772 World Champion of WHAT??
hi
hi
high
Must be devastating for Remco man. Like you know you can beat them, just one day hurt you. Same thing with Pogacar, one day ruined him in the TDF.
Jumbos good teamates really takes pressure off the GC riders shoulders. Jumbo need Pog and Remco in one team to be challenged.😂😂
Remco showed today he's a great rider, but let's not kid ourselves. If he still had been a contender in the GC or if any contender in the GC had tried a break away in full force, TJV would have easily wheeled them in again. They're in total control and nothing happens unless they let it happen. Giving Remco the chance to win today is often what is done by TJV for great riders after they crack - they did the same in the TdF with Pogacar. It's due to the gentlemens' agreement that you don't gloat when you're winning. You don't annihilate your opponents after you've essentially beaten them.
Or don't make it too obvious you have special rice cakes and berry juice which the others don't. 😴
@@briangoossens1519 Yeah, these insinuations of doping are getting really old and stale fast. There's no proof that the top riders of the team has any doping going on and you're just a petulent little troll that can't handle your favorite rider has been crushed by someone better. Are you a Pogi-boi or a Remco-kid? Go away troll, I'm blocking you, so don't bother answering, I won't see it anyway.
@@briangoossens1519 Ding ding. We have a winner.
They would have stopped him from going in the break, not sure they could have railed him back in without using one of their leaders once he had 2 minutes. TJV only had Valter left at the end and all he could do was keep the gap stable.
It's not gifting a win, or a gentleman's agreement, it's just basic prioritising of resources. It's madness to tire your domestiques out by chasing a guy 29 minutes down on GC when you have 7 stages to go and multiple competitors 3-4 mins off the red jersey to contain. Fantastic ride by Evenepoel
Don't count out Remco!!!! 👏👏👏
Glad you enjoyed the stage!
I’m not sure what we’re counting on Remco for tbh 🤔 GC?
For packing up shop when he sees his chances slipping away in Stage 13? (Looks like bad sportsmanship or at least bad planning by his manager seeking bonus $$$ by racing in La Vuelta…
For a few ‘sound bites’ for his media lap dogs?
He was 27+ minutes down and wouldn’t have been in the break if he was any threat to the pointy end of the race.
Remco was like any other guy in the Peloton who had shipped time and was allowed into the breakaway in which nobody, apart from his team mate and Bardet were willing to work with him.
Love the Remco haters ‘but they let him go’. Yes winning grand tour stages is so easy, everyone does it all the time 🤷♂️
Especially the way he won.
winning stages is so easy, every stage has at least 1 winner
No big deal. None the less well done ER. I mean RE.
Is Remco going to DNF…?
Can’t see it now he smells any easy kill with the KOM jersey.
So Remco comes back from the absolute dead 24 hours after Jumbo Visma go 1-2-3 on the Queen stage and this is supposed to be normal? This is just so weird.
Edit:The 1-2-3 is just as strange (if not more so) than today's stage.
He didn't do that well. Jumbo just didn't chase him because he's not a contender for this race any more.
Wrt Remco: Yesterday was what was weird. Today was a very good day. But not fully "weird," by Remco standards. When he's on, he can ride away from people.
It's like in the tdf when pog was dropped by vingegaard and everyone said pog doesn't have it any more, but is set a faster time on the mountain then two years ago. E
Scenario is everything.
"Remco comes back from the absolute dead"
He had a rest day yesterday
Would Remco's win have been that spectacular if the GC riders gave a damn? I doubt it. They were happy to watch him ride away. Great ride by a great rider, sure, but flattered by his irrelevance in the race as a whole. Excellent recap, as per usual.
where is EGAN Bernal??
Why does this remind me of Landis to Morzine in 2006?
Strange stuff from Remco, makes you think he intentionally lost time yesterday
No jumbo didnt care for him today yesterday they drove in on him in a bad day they probably could have driven the same way today but why would they their goal is a historic 123 not chasing a guy half an hour back
Of course he intentionally lost enough time to be able to go for breakaway stage wins. If he would have been less than 10min ahead Jumbo isnt letting him go anywhere.
He probably had a terrible day, knew GC was over - and then just let the time run.
He didn’t lose the first 5 minutes on purpose.. after that ofcourse… he doesn’t need a top 10 spot, he’s won the race
@@itzStrFtwi doubt that after the first six minute loss, Remco devised a master plan to lose half an hour and then go for stage wins. Like, how machiavellian can a rider be in the middle of race? Or maybe, actually haha when I wrote how machiavellian can a rider be I realized that actually yes he can be that Machiavellan and more lol.
First!!
I dont get why you go on a break with Remco. If Pog loses 20min in the tour you dont go on a break with him either. You lose 10/10.times.
Welcome to the club of people who have no clue what UAE is doing whenever Tadej is not there. 😂👍
Kuss!
Weird behavior from Remco - manic and jocular wth the media and the crowd before the start and then he rode the stage like it was a one day classic wth no tomorrow.
I felt sorry for Romain Bardet who ended as a sort of super-domestique for Remco but who must have known he would be dumped near the end of this day of personal redemption & in my opinion self-flagellation as well. You could see in the end of stage interviews that the other GC contenders congratulated him but clearly did not understand the point of the display.
Yesterdays failure must have been mental stress and nothing physical.
The point of the display? As in to win the stage? Something 85% of the peloton will never do?
It was a show of ego, wasn't it? He had to show to the world and himself that he's still relevant and of worth. Yesterday was probably a massive blow to his self-perception. That had to be repaired in some way and this was the only and most grand possibility.
Watch the interviews after the race. Romain said what a good performance by Remco it was and that Remco basically did 80 percent of the work. Remco on the other hand said that he was willing to work uphill when Bardet helps I’m in the flat parts. Also, this stage was maybe just for Remco to prove himself he’s still a great rider. I don’t get how you consider this weird behaviour.
@@Jan-se1ndAnd he did it, so what is your point? Just look at him after the stage, he was crying even 15 minutes after the stage ended. Put some respect on his name and performances even if you dislike him.
@@Knofris The point is right there. There's no nefarious or denigrating intention. It's a description of events as I saw them. That's it
Great job not crashing after the stage win Remco...your mom must be proud of you 👏
Remco ran out of go-juice on stage 13. Clearly he got a huge dose of go-juice for stage 14. Amazing the fanboys of GCN, or should I say the man-crushes of GCN+ for Remco. They knew that every sentence in their commentary being about Remco was probably a bad look, but they couldn't help themselves and even tried to defend it. Pro cycling is getting harder to watch with this obvious doping going on and the commentators too scared to even mention it. I agree that Remco is an amazing rider, but if you can't see the obvious, then shame on you. And I like the TJV GC riders, but wow, 1-2-3 on GC? Seems fishy to me.
STUMPWATCH2023
remco remco remco
Remco made the greatest one day come back in the history of the grand tour?
You mean Floyd landis...
World beating form isn't when Bardet can follow you...
He couldn't, he lost.
Did they cross the finish together???
I, too, turn off all stages with 5km remaining. Just out of general principle.
He ate a minute out of Bardet in a couple of km lol, and that was after giving him a huge tow on the flat
A stage like today shows Remco is a legit contender for the 2024 TDF.
What are you smoking,man.😅
TdF is a bit longer than a day
Lmao 😂
Against the best GC riders (bar Pogacar) in the world he ships 6 minutes on the first climb and finishes close to 30’ off the lead by the end of Stage 13.
Remco is not in the same echelon as the best in the business going on results to date.
He and his father talk a big game, but in GTs against real competition his legs have failed to deliver on the PR.
The only man that can defeat this Jumbo Visma team is Tadej.
Remco, Ayuso and João can't do it
Have anyone heard of Remco’s complain of the day? 😄
Hahahahahahahah nice one, indeed. I'm going to steal that one
