You know Pog wasn't taking this tour lightly. Most riders would have sat up in the last few meters and celebrated but Tadej knew every second counted and powered through until the end. He is an absolute beast but he definitely knows Vingegaard is capable of coming back. But if it wasn't for the crash and losing Sepp, Jonas would be a huge threat.

Quite surprising for me that Jonas lost 20 seconds going downhill. Tadej on the other hand is really profiting of his teammates, like Jonas last year when his teammates attacked Tadej multiple times to exhaust him. It's not only a battle between Jonas and Tadej rather than UAE und Jumbo. And UAE looks much stronger.

[@mambokapapa9485]

Jumbo without Kuss in the mountains is week considering the domestique's they have to compete with team UAE. A battle for considering Tadej's exhibition today.

[@utopian909]

Jonas’ Basque crash was downhill, so I assume that must have affected the extreme fearlessness he would need to keep up with Tadej downhill.

[@Pipe_JL]

During the ascent, Jonas had exactly the same helpers as Tadej, as he rode in their lee the whole time.

This stage played almost exactly the opposite as last year when pogacar went against 2 jumbo visma riders and lost about 50 seconds to vingegaard.

[@BenjaminKV17]

the difference is vingegaard went against a podium contender (adam yates) a vuelta contender(ayouso) Almeida sivakov and soler while having no prep and having a extremely bad crash (fractured collarbone and multible ribs, a pulmonary contusion and a pneumothorax) staying in hospitial for 12 days coughing blood and olny having a month to "prepare" (training himself up and getting the fear away from the crash) vingegaard is crazy to be at this level with all the obstacles so it aint the same bro

[@markhill9275]

​@BenjaminKV17 what a load of BS! Last year Vinegar had Sepp Kuss, Roglic as a 3 pronged attack, Pog had a severely disrupted prep! You Vinegar fsnnyboys are just plain blind! Also, Pog has just come off the Giro, and a bout of covid. He will only get stronger as he continues to recover from covid! Vinegar will no doubt get more condition as the tour progresses, but also will tire more easily as his body is still healing.

[@Caliban1616]

It's interesting, on the top part of the descent, where it was wet and where you would expect Jonas to have more nerves descending, he lost very little time--the gap opened up on the lower part of the descent and on the subsequent end of the stage. So I'm not sure the argument holds up that Jonas was particularly hesitant on the descent, rather Pogi is a stronger rider on lower inclines or flat. We saw that in the relatively hilly TT last year when Jonas absolutely smoked everyone. I'm rooting for Pogi, but I think anyone saying that he has it in the bag now is sorely mistaken. Visma is still strong, especially tactically and I think Jonas could gain a lot of time in ITT, especially on the final on stage 7 or Nice, final stage (although Pogi probably knows this course super well as he lives in Monaco).

[@TimCupery]

Yeah, Jonas was NOT hesitant on the descent. He's always been at least as Pogacar as a technical descender, usually choosing more confident lines. Most of Jonas' time loss, as noted in his post-race interview, was on the straighter section "where you get more benefit from gravity." It's also possible that Jonas just fatigued more than Pogacar over the pedal-as-hard-as-you-can section of the descent.

[@ralfpatalinghug7426]

I must agree. Its just that tadej is more explosive on the flats.

[@Nick2bad4u]

Some people were saying Jonas was spun out but I'm not sure

[@arne8922]

jonas himself said in an interview that further down the descent its more straight and that benefits (the heavier) tadej, in his words "gravity helps you more"

[@antonioteseo3491]

For me Pocagar can match Merkx to win Giro and Tour in the same year and become legend. These riders were able to win the two races in the same year: Merckx (4 times) Hinault (3 times) Coppi, Anquetil, Indurain (2 times) Roche, Pantani (1 time)

[@Michael_J218]

We are watching the Goat of cycling as we speak there truly isnt anything else to say. Pogacar is way and clear the goat. And if you think Merckx would beat the likes of Vingegaard etc uphill and Mvdp in flandern go check yourself right now.

[@paulstarstarpaul5700]

While Visma has been the dominant team generally this year it’s clearly UAE‘s super team. Visma is missing an on form Sepp Kuss, Jonas best mountain Domestique is Jorgensen and Wout is incredible but no climber. UAE on the other hand is clearly even stronger than last year. They absolutely went all out. Their climber Domestiques could be top 10-20 candidates and captains on other teams but they are riding for Pogi. It’s basically impossible to match that as a team. However today even Sepp Kuss couldn’t have really helped Jonas that much, because Jonas lost most of the time on the descent.

[@JoselitoMayores]

If, and it's a huge if, Pog can make it to end of the race, I think he will win. The truth is, it's a lot of luck and a long way to go. If Pog hadn't had the one bad day last year, it would've been very close, probably only bonus seconds in it. It's a touch of wheels, a bit of gravel and you could be out the tour.....I wouldn't bet against Pog making it to the double, but nothing is guaranteed yet!

He isn’t going to win the tour 😢😮 if he does somehow pull it off, the Vuelta will be an absolute must try, but too many happenings between now and then to speculate.

[@paulstarstarpaul5700]

I think that’s something to discuss when he has finished and won the Tour. Many things can happen until the end. If he wins competing at the Vuelta would be possible. Pogi would also probably be the favourite at the Vuelta but there are still many ifs even after he has won the Tour. For example: Can he keep his form at the Vuelta? Who is the competition (for example if Jonas gets better during the Tour and feeling good maybe they will send him to the Vuelta with Kuss that would be incredible hard for Pogi after a long season)? Will the preparation and race go well for him. One mistake is enough for him to loose the Vuelta and unfortunately even more. Who would UAE send to support Pogi? Their Tour team is incredible. However they probably won’t send all of them to the Vuelta. So yeah no one can answer question currently and no one can say if it even will be a question at the end of the tour.

Why was Vingegaard left alone? How did Visma allow it? Where's Wout van Aert? Damn. That hurt them.

[@paulstarstarpaul5700]

Wout was already dropped by Politt pulling. He isn’t exactly a climber and doesn’t seem to be on the best form. And when it comes to climbing Domestiques Vizma just doesn’t have the strength UAE has this year. While the last years Visma was stronger this year in the mountains UAE‘s Domestiques are just unbelievable, while Visma is missing Sepp Kuss. And even if Sepp was at the Tour UAE as a team this year would probably be stronger in the mountains because well having Solet, Ayuso, Almeida and Yates as Domestiques is an ungodly amount of firepower. And Sivakov, Wellens and Politt were cruel to the peloton and crucial for delivering their team to the mountains today as well.

[@oldtwinsna8347]

Wout likely held back today, with or without team approval, so he can be fresh enough for the next 2 stages which are for the sprinters.
