      Despite me being a fan boy of MVdP, I have a feeling this might be his best year of his career. He’s already 28 going to 29 season and have been racing since he was a teenager. He can definitely win big races but it won’t be as big as 2023.
      Hopefully I’m wrong though

    I think you got the MVDP, Pedersen, Van Aert trio exactly backwards. MVDP did it when it counted -- 2 monuments and 2 world championships, not to mention 2nd at Flanders. Pedersen and Van Aert had plenty of lesser wins, but in my book MVDP was by far the best non grand tour contender.

      Problem is that MvdP is a peaker, he uses races that aren't his goal to train/prep and tries to peak at exactly the right moment. Because of these he generally has less wins and high places => less UCI points.

    Pogi and mvdp are the best riders :) UCI ranking does it's job, but the way it is currently made I wonder if it really adds anything. The amount of race days seems to play a huge part. If ranking was a really big deal you'd have some heavily overworked cyclists

    • @MDP1702
      @MDP1702 7 месяцев назад

      It isn't just the race days, rather also how many races you ride to win. MvdP regularly uses a race purely as prep. He in the end has 6 wins vs many others above 10. If it weren't for winning 3 big ones, he wouldn't even be in the top 10. MvdP imo might be thé definition of a peaking rider.

    looking at the grand tours, its Vingegaard, Roglic, Pogi and then Kuss and Almaida. Looking at classics and one day races i would say MvdP, Pogi, Aert, Pedersen. Pogi is only first because he did well in both. But i think MvdP definitely had the biggest ones, winning Paris Roubaix and the rainbow jersey. Too bad he was only a supporting role in the tour and didnt go for his own success.

  • @finnwolffkaysfeld7000
    @finnwolffkaysfeld7000 7 месяцев назад +2

    Jonas should have the first spot. He won the hardest tour of the year, and could easily have won the Vuelta as well. How can you be said to be the number one, when you aren't able to win any of the grand Tours? Winning one day races doesn't make you the best.

    • @Knofris
      @Knofris 7 месяцев назад

      And winning Grand Tours doesn’t make you the best rider either. It’s up for debate which has more weight, but someone who can be top 3 or in a good year even win Grand Tours like Pogacar, be top 3 in the world champs and win monuments definitely is a better overall cyclist than someone who, well yea wins the Tour but doesn’t do anything else. And he didn’t win the Vuelta so all your hypothetical what may have been doesn’t count.
      If I would be a pro cyclist and won every race that there is, I would be the best cyclist. That doesn’t make sense because it doesn’t happen and that’s why the “if he wanted he could’ve🤓” isn’t part of the debate about who had the best year.

    Van Der Poel narrowly ahead of Pogacar for me. Its fair that Pogacar is the best rider in the world and his Flanders win was a memorable one. My two favourite riders but Van Der Poel's attack on the Poggio and up Montrose Street in the World champs where both times he rode Pogacar and Van Aert off the wheel are career defining highlights.

      It is the official UCI ranking. It is solely based on points - the better the place in the bigger the race, the more points you get (counting back 52 weeks). Kuss of course took a big step up the list (to #16) by finishing nine in TdF and winning the Vuelte, but ultimately did not make top ten before the end of the year.
