How many attacks did he stop without even getting out of the saddle? I was wondering why he wasn't saving some energy for the Tour, but now realize that this is what saving energy looks for him.

@@kennykaniff how do you see their upcoming tdf lineup?

[@kennykaniff]

@@recordednowhere their TDF lineup is their strongest lineup but it's still not stronger than VISMA when Jonas is there. But in all reality, Pogi is so strong they don't need a team that strong at this Giro. They will need a strong team at TDF if Jonas makes it to the TDF. They can really put a hurt on UAE easily AND even wear Pogi down like they did a few years ago. I forget the year and the stage but it was incredible how they just attacked him and let him respond then another VISMA rider attacked him and he responded and VISMA did that about 10 times and Pogi was all by himself and wore himself out trying to respond to every attack. That's the strength of VISMA that UAE does NOT have 🤘🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Every time I talk about this YT removes my comment. I'll try it one more time . . . When a handful of riders are MILES above the rest of their peers it is blatantly obvious. People tell me "he's 'all natural' and has never given a positive test result". Well guess what? Lance didn't get caught for 12 years and it wasn't the testing that got him caught. He beat the testing system his entire career! Once people do the research and look into how doping is done and how the testing protocols are majorly flawed, it will then be clear. People actually believe the UCI when they say "cycling is the cleanest it's ever been"😂 That's insane! All the the riders that were on "the program " were doing it for most if not their ENTIRE careers but they got away with it and only some of them got caught ONCE! It's not physiological. It's not improved science. It's not better technology. It's not better understanding of nutrition. It's not "marginal gains". It's not the expensive fabric they use to make the team kit. When these riders and teams are spending €100,000s on Drs, the first and most important thing they need to learn from the Drs is HOW TO NOT GET CAUGHT. There are MANY ways to beat the testing. It's not hard. The riders passport is something these riders use to HELP them get away with it. It allows them to stay within somewhat "normal parameters" for a "clean athlete" and even when they do go outside the "normal parameters" there are ways to explain it away. You can microdose EPO in the evening and beat a test the following day. You can say you trained at altitude a few days before you gave a test that says your red blood cell count is too high because that's what happens at altitude. There are other ways also. These lads are smashing records of KNOWN dopers. Once people take the time to research this themselves it will become very clear what is going on. This is so blatantly obvious and people just say "he's never tested positive" or "what proof do you have?". The proof is right in front of everyone. People just refuse to admit it. A little research goes a long way. It's like TEAM SKY, when they were winning their fans refused to accept it but when new and better riders with better Drs came along and beat them they started saying those lads are on "the program". It will be the same with what's happening now. When these lads start losing to new riders that are getting better PED's with better Drs people will accuse THEM of being on "the program" but they won't admit it while their favourite rider is clearly doping now. This is not hard to understand. It's really quite simple with just a little research into the subject. When will people stop lying to themselves? Oh, I know!

Tour de France is already over because of the crashes of all the top contenders like it was last year with Pog. I got the feeling Pog will win all of the big three this year and will be the first one to do it. History in the making

[@kennykaniff]

Im watching Remco on his YT channel showing his recovery process. Everyday he uploads I believe. He will most likely be there and it appears that Jonas will be there also. Not sure how on form they will be tho but I do think they will both be there and I'm sure. Roglic is going to be there. He wasn't injured in the crash. He just abandoned because it was too dangerous and didn't want to get injured causing him to not make the TDF or not be on top form for TDF. He had already had an incident a day or two before the big crash so he just left the race before he did get injured 🤘🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@viktorkalef]

@@kennykaniff any missing races because of a injury is bad for top riders form as was the case with Pog last year. Any injury and crash can have a terrible impact on their season and I don't believe they (other top riders) will be at the same form as Pog if he stays injury free

[@kennykaniff]

@@viktorkalef you're absolutely correct!! It would be an act of God if Jonas made the tour and won. He suffered very serious injuries in that crash. Him and Jay Vine had the worst injuries. They were not nice injuries. They were very serious. Jay Vine had broken vertebrae i believe and Jonas had pneumonothorax. I also believe he had another very serious injury because pniemonothorax is usually one week in hospital. Jonas was in for 2 weeks!!

[@dickieblench5001]

It was designed for pogi. He was paid to appear remember

[@443zpaj]

As much as we want to enjoy the race. It's really becoming boring AF!. When one rider is super dominance above others(Like Eddie), and rampaging every stage with a win. Literally, the other team are just scrambling for runner up. They are becoming a decoration for tadej red carpet procession until paris. If other teams just play for the second place, and do not contest this race (which is more likely gonna happen). Without the big guns from the other team (like jonas, remco or rogla) this tour is already secure for UAE , the downside that I see is that like I said earlier, it's becoming less fun to watch nor its becoming interesting in some fans anymore. On the flip side, we should still acknowledge pogi skills and presence here. He is such a cool and funny individual. When someone like him is exceptionally good and dominant. There's always a good and a bad side in this kind of scenario for the sports. But still I'm hoping for a battle for the GC and the other team will not just give an ez win to UAE.

[@Big_Island_Boi]

Pog is a man racing boys. It's not even a fair fight. If this were the Armstrong era, Lemond would be calling him a doper--and he'd be right. He is simply on another level. Jonas is pretty close to that level--but given identical team support I'd pick Pog over Jonas just about every time. The times that Jonas has beaten Pog in the GC (Tour de France) he simply had a MUCH better bench to pull from... essentially the dream team of pro cycling. That's over now... and Jonas is injured and may never fully come back from that--unfortunately--the same way Froome-y never quite got back to full form after his devastating crash. Shit happens. And sometimes it changes a sport forever.

[@andrehufschmid]

Jonas is stronger

[@kennykaniff]

Jonas has a better "program" than Pogi and a much stronger team!! 🤘🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@Big_Island_Boi]

@@andrehufschmid Eh. Sometimes. Depends on the day... depends on the course. If you neutralized the team advantages I doubt Jonas would beat him on 6 out of 10 stages consistently. But unfortunately we'll never know... because the crash will not always be used as the reason why Jonas lost his top form and (perhaps) never regains it. Now, if Jonas does end up riding in the Tour this year... AND wins... well, that would be pretty clear evidence that he's a better rider. But I don't see that happening.

Will we see him start to fatigue??? It’s happened in the past!!!

[@danielkaminske5048]

not without extreme heat and equal competitors. He stayed under threshold all day until the final sprint. He will be very comfortable the rest of the way.

[@lilsimes1]

Hopefully we’ll get some exciting action and not a procession to the end. Either way I just love watching cycling 😄

[@Psysso]

He is even leaner and better trained , healthy. Kinda lifetime form

This is not naturell,in about 5 to 10 years,Whe know the naturel winner.This is a copy of Lance Armstrong,not a normall trained person

Most boring Giro race! Knowing who will win cos Pogi has no competitor!!!

[@Thx-cn8gk]

the trackers are incompetent. It's been like this for 10 years, they no longer allow sprinters or one-day heroes to take the pink jersey. I believe it is done on purpose to ensure rich teams have the greatest possible visibility for sponsors. but then TV viewers drop. we are in the hands of idiots.

So lionel messi and ronaldo are also doped bcuz they are the best? Just bcuz you are the best doesnt mean you take dope 😭. Wait until vingegard, evenepoel (and maybe roglic) join and you will see there are others who play at this level 🤡

good on ya mate. Not enough people are admitting this. People are just believing the UCI when they said "cycling is the cleanest it's ever been"😂 It's ridiculous.
