Check out the article analysing Pogacar's 2021 Tour de France performance here | lanternerouge.com.au/2022/01/28/the-day-when-pogacar-won-tour-de-france-2021/

It is also important the change in riding style of Pogacar. Now he is riding 170 mm cranks and he has more cadence, but it seems he climbs worse than before in 2020 and 2021 when he was riding 172,5 cranks and he climbed with lower cadence. Vingegaard is using 172,5 cranks and he is only 174 cm, a bikefitter would say he is using a very long cranks for him but he is the best climber in the world riding like that, for example Wout Van Aert also uses 172,5 and he is almost 189cm. That could be interesting to analyze also. Thanks a lot for your videos! Merry Christmas to you!

Ow, while also coming 1-2-3 on the podium there. I mean, when will the other teams wake up and realize their approach is outdated? I hope next year there will be tougher fights!

Then on Ventoux they dropped him. So Maybe Alpe D Huez? But I think that Alpe D Huez might actually suite him a little better so it's tough.

I think that year after year from 2020 on, Tadej has become almost perfect. Sprinting and bike handling are his only handycaps and he lost to only the very best. If his team is healthy I really dont think that even a perfect Roglic or Bernal can beat him now nevermind Vingegaard who already shows cracks in this last crit of Dauphiné. He looks alot stronger and focused in 2022. As I see after this early season he is going for the absolut record as a TdF winner.

This is perfect route for O'Connor short of cobbles. There's such a climb heavy repetitive route again twice over galibier just bookending stages this year if all goes well I think eventually Jonas will be asked to not sacrifice podium or top5 since dauphine showed that but one of two will go from range on planned attack forcing tadej to cover and giving one a free ride on day where hopefully they have diamonds in there legs. As we saw in tirreno when tadej buries gas he goes away quick and Jonas himself said his acceleration is just incredible and nobody was in that league. Jonas had poor tt at tirreno is obviously stronger, and as long as cobbles don't put them back after tadej looking elite on pave, that would be issue that tadej will let a Thomas or kung a cobbler who can climb take yellow until maybe alpe d-huez where I'd guess tjv want jersey. If tadej is confident taking it there it's bad sign meaning he will just keep attacking everyone on every big clean climb for rest of race again nullifying the trains he's only one even Alberto couldn't detail an elite train. He needed mano a Mano. 2014 Vuelta. O'Connor will be constantly given slack as a non top TT and he suits all those climb heavy stages wouldn't be surprised if a tjv member is sacrificed to see O'Connor podium. Early in race Thomas, vlasov, should show well but roglic, pog, Jonas, O'Connor, a recovered Yates it's a lot of climbing better be a natural. GC my guess gets polka dots again otherwise Pinot and Guerrero could be exciting for polkadot race. 🥂 Cheers felicitations. Side note welens supposed to go to uae not benoot but a similar type role but if Swiss army knife ,big engine, rouleur , great for Flanders ambition. They pulled a Stefan kung, catanneo, bisseger even it's still not having wva, winning in general classification framework is hardest thing to do in cycling,but besides that best one day rider in cycling hands down so even all that help which is pie in sky just levels field wouldn't make team better. Not until healthy joao is used like Castro climbing domestiques and his Jonas who's 19 in ayuso bummer in timing because they will be monsters eventually with that depth could sweep podiums like ineos. 100%right about Milan I said it when people started snickering look at numbers competition wasn't there. He definitely was dropped as Jonas says it's best legs he ever had in his life and while he would have won summit finish the pretty noticeable back off I'd tadejs style to drop heart rate get back in aerobic rhythm and he's smart enough to know there was a descent to charge back on so best get lactate out of legs. If tadej goes for jersey on alpe d'huez he's ambitious historic climb be huge indicator of his comfort and confidence as he would stay in wheels unless he feels he's untouchable. Again agreed the way these guys avoid each other is annoying for VG pick lol or gambling if nothing else ☺️🏞️🏆two podiums given healthy race primoz , Jonas, tadej or tadej, Jonas , O'Connor vlasov in the mix not sure about 3 weeks but he's performing at the 4th highest all around level imo this year. Just think O'Connor rides so easy he will be final group 3rd week if not all race aside from solo victories. If tadej loses much like Alberto he's emptying chamber so if he loses to one I think it's tjv strength and tactics and both better him and if he has legs like strade, Flanders, tirreno etc I think teams will fight for 2nd maybe worst thing for tjv is a ganna,Dvb, Thomas led ineos they won't bully that horsepower and even if they help one stage that train will help pog and spare his team a lot of work especially if he has best legs. Let those two torture peloton and do your thing. Wellness would be great with tadej ,hirschi,not sure if trentin stays but kung, campanaerts, cattaneo, bisseger all game changers fir UAE imo hope to see it Dvb types to take over from bjerg as they ascend, ride, valleys, or become classics contender. Wellness wasn't getting chances at lotto as Belgian maybe victor isn't as far fetched I'd thought.✌️rambling I know your time lot stuff

Either way, there are so many excellent riders that nearly every stage will be exciting. What will Alaphilippe, MVdP and Wout do? What team will be very strong and smart and what team will go the Movistar route and leave us scratching our heads? Let us all hope that covid stays the heck out of the race.

I think the 'weakness' of Pog last year on Ventoux was a bit of gamesmanship. He probably wanted to convey to the public (which had been pushing conspiracy theories of the sort made when a cyclist is seen to be totally dominant) that he was human after all. He knew a long downhill descent was coming up. This year at two stages of Tirreno-Adriatico - especially at Carpegna - Pog was able to leave Vingegaard behind effortlessly as if Vingegaard and the rest were standing still.

Vingegaard was wel under his level at Tirreno though, he did like 0.4w/kg less than his normal average climbing level on Carpegna. Ofcourse it could again have been the colder conditions that limited most riders power, but not that of Pog like in stage 8 last year. It isn't really a good comparison to mount ventoux stages where Vingegaard was on his peak level in hotter conditions.

I remember a time (during Amstrong era) where it was always said that if a rider goes over 6 watts/kilo for a period of time over 15 minutes, he was most definitely doped... I assume those numbers have changed now, since we keep seeing guys like that go over the "limit" again and again. What has changed, in the past 20 years? (please dont tell me, its physiologic cuz that bs)

Not saying it’s dope free, but the very peek numbers have gone down since then or even since Contador times. Plus 6w/kg for 15 is quite achievable for a normal person if you’re small, lean and fit.

Armstrong claimed he could hold over 7W/kg for 30 minutes, so that gives you an idea of how he was doped to the moon. Regardless of whether there's something in the orange juice these days, two things are significantly different - feeding and power measurement. Bike-based power meters were really clunky in the super-doper era, now it's a 7g penalty to have a power meter on your bike. Always training in power zones and having that kind of data fed to your coach to alter your training plan makes a big difference. Much easier to course-correct if someone looks like they're starting to overtrain or burn out, and that makes it possible for people to get more threshold-expanding training days in every year. The ethos around food has also completely changed - we've gone from starving yourself on training rides (in order to "train your body to run off nothing") to optimizing the ratio of sugars to maximize carbohydrate intake. Riders are eating as many calories as they possibly can now, and that makes their recovery much more manageable. Not as much need to transfuse your blood after every stage when you're eating adequate amounts of food. Now obviously there's room for suspicion, because we've already seen some ridiculous stuff this year (Jay Vine doing 6.3W/kg for 30+ minutes and getting HARD DROPPED by Remco in Tour of Norway, completely wtf???), but there's the counter argument to that from people like Iñigo San Millan (who has Pog's training files) who say that most power estimations made by journalists are way overestimated.

@@philipb.1950 1. Pog is smart. Get a buffer and maintain it vs blast everyone like he could. Why put minutes in to everyone and raise even more suspicion? Look at you noobs who already think he is the only one on the good sugar. 2. Now you think the pros want to ride XC brakes on their road bikes and that they dont care about weight that much and that they were not happy with rim brakes from shimano/campag etc. Funny that. 3. Looked what happened to Pantani when he tried to hog all the stages and glory in the 99 giro...Pog listens to his seniors who know how to run the win. 4. UAE own colnago. In 2022 it is BAD for business if you dont have your star riders riding what the noobs demand because they drank the Specialized and Canyon Kool-Aid - road disc. Id be very suprised if Pog was allowed to ride rim brakes on any road stage this year.

Not buying the stage 11 story of not eating enough. NO ONE in the modern team support era uses that story. His ego got him caught up in a pissing contest with two guys who took turns punching him and in the heat of the moment he punched back! and wasted himself. All the commentators, from every podcast and channel were saying that he would pay for that. He should have waited for the right moment and dueled with each on their worst day. As to who is the best climber, I vote Jonas
