@lucasaganronald Ideal: Torito goes on the breakaway to put pressure on Alpecin, Pog get launched attacking before Cipressa and connects with Torito there to go all the way to the Poggio.
Realistic: they fast pace to Cipressa and launch a 2vs1 attack full gas up to the Poggio.
@RodriSabato No, me refiero a 5 podios en la Lombardía, donde Coppi es el máximo ganador a la fecha.
De subirse al podio en los 5 monumentos en una temporada me parece que, como apuntas, no hay registro.
@lucasaganronald Pog va MVDP. Both seem to like to compete against each other and keep it entertaining.
The other 2 are more in the lines of rivals wanting to be like Pog, not to actually challenge him.
@mou55981652 c'mon, that's just you hating on Remco 🤣
the guy might not be the most likable rider out there, but it's a killer in the TT discipline, so chapeau to him on that.
@BenjiNaesen 6/10:
Lack of real battle for GC, route designed to get everyone tired so the 3rd week was slow and not a show, too many crashes and dropouts.
But.. let’s keep Montmartre every year. Great stage, it was only missing MVDP to have an even better show
@Banker_Cat@laflammerouge16@bascanvas Yes, ignore the 18, I forgot to edit it but was meant to say 8. That happened, and then as Le Flamme points out, 2023 he went to Tour after the crash.
But how about going +2 years full calendar? Guy will be bald or dead by now if fully juiced.
@Banker_Cat@laflammerouge16@bascanvas What happened in those 18 months ?
New trainer
Changes in crew and squads
Heat training to solve his main issue of blowing up under the sun
Maturity to avoid responding all and every attack
Also, racing 18m at high level is impossible if doped, see LA calendars: Tour focused
@FelipeA27771945@mou55981652 you really call boring one of the few guys in recent years racing and making podium at all classics + Ardennes, Strade, Tour and World Champions?
Wow, your definition of boring is... peculiar.
@JohnRools@mou55981652 The guy looks exhausted and has a good margin towards Paris.
He probably couldn’t care less about the stage, specially as he was doing all the work uphill.
