I blame the moderator, he could easily have skipped a handful of Jonas/VLAB questions. The questions were mostly submitted ahead of time, so I understand why there were so similar. If I only could ask him one question, I would have picked one that involved something with both Pog and Jonas. The Jonas presser didn’t have as many Pog questions, but the journalists were in the room with Jonas so they could adjust.

[@richardb8220]

Jonas is being patient AND coming back from a serious injury. It makes complete sense for him to ride how he is especially during the gravel stage where he already lost his bike and was riding Tratniks. If he’s isolated from his team and had another bike problem it would be catastrophic. Tadej and Remco tend to ride more with their heart, which is exciting to watch while Jonas tends to ride more with his head.

[@NightShooter87]

I think that's risky. They could of isolated it, as a 3 horse race, with Jonas being a wheelsucker, now Roglic can't be written out off it and his legs will get better.

[@NewTab0911]

Jonas would be sucking wheels if he had attacked. It was Tadej’s game and R&J countered. I don’t believe Jonas should be more concerned with Roglic than Pogocar. He’s just watching Tadej.

[@shadowsun33]

Stop perpetuating the drama about the bike swap. Only cry babies use this as an argument. Jan and Jonas have almost identical settings regarding height and reach, so just drop it. Us who raced many years have raced with various bikes and settings, most of the time far from perfect and many of us did great regardless. Jonas is always a wheelsucker. Nothing different previous years when he wasn't coming off of an injury so that point too is ridiculous. He attacks Tadej only when Tadej is beat and over. Otherwise he sucks wheels.

I don't think anyone knows if Pog will start to get tired after the Giro or Jonus will improve or not. Pog getting fried on last year's time trial was tricky for him to take and cracking the next day was either psychological or stomach (bad tummy day) or he just cracked. We also don't know how the others will come in or not and take on the race. I'd like to get hold of pog's team mates by the throat as they seem to forget their job and start to leave Pog exposed. I think there are one or two in that Team who aren't playing the team game :/

[@FreeMTrider]

Pocagar cracked on that climb was most likely calories from what the other pros were saying. And it was pretty evident because he came back and won the next mountain stage.

[@jerrychicken967]

@@FreeMTrider I heard his stomach couldn't keep up with the food /gel intake. That was the last official line anyhow so make of that what we will. Cyclist and their teams aren't always telling the truth to us so who knows. Heat has been mentioned as a factor with Pog. It's all in the air still. There's so much we don't know about these riders. The French riders are making me scratch my head at the moment. Why are they suddenly successful?? Could it be luck or is there pressure from French Government for home success and with the head of the uci being French too, is he getting involved with the anti doping with the French teams, allowing success to the home side? France is politically in the poop at the moment and French success may look good for Macron. I dunno, cycling is a bit of a messed up sport on the quiet.

[@FreeMTrider]

@@jerrychicken967 Yeah who knows. It also could be that he just doesn't hold back sometimes and will throw down if he feels like it.....but that is what makes it exciting. I think the French have been way, way overdue, so this isn't a surprise. Everyone wants to win and at some point they will. I know for myself as just a Cat 1 racer, it's comes and goes. But that isn't anything to compare to. I just know this year the TDF is doing pretty damn good.

[@jerrychicken967]

@@FreeMTrider yep, I was only cat 3, alas naturally slow 🙄 I say that knowing that fast riders aren't always smart as their talent gets them through, Remco being a casing point. In the old days, before ear peices, riders could go mad with abandon and if they're not smart they'd get blow their legs off before they'd get a telling off from the car. Brains was also a big factor in the past. These days, fairly stupid riders can win 😜 I think with Pog and Remco, their ego and over enthusiasm, doesn't help their cause. They seem to call the shots too which isn't ideal. With those two, it does make good racing to watch 😊

Why cant we just enjoy the amazing riders? I like all the riders, and each have their strong side. Jonas would not gain anything by riding with Pogi to the finish. Pogi would take it 100% in a sprint. So Jonas has to await his chance later on, not as existing, but the clever solution.

[@BenjaminUbayyed-po9tc]

the way i see tadej winning this race is simply to follow the moves. he doesn't need to get more time on jonas, necessarily, but can easily get it if he waits until 500 meters to go and then punch it. he and jonas seem to be evenly matched in the mountains and what i notice is that tadej obviously has a more explosive punch that jonas so when he goes he immediately gets a 10 second gap on jonas but jonas claws his way back. so if he follows the attacks--cause jonas has to attack--he saves energy and can gain 10-15 seconds on each mountain stage. remko is dangerous, imo. if tadej doesn't have 1:30 on remko going into the mountains then remko can win the TT and hence the race. but imo remko will lose time on the climbs, possibly signifigant time, just due to him being not as strong a climber as tadej and jonas. my two fears for tadej is that a) he rides too aggressively and then tires and jonas beats him to the line and b) that he is inconsistent and has a bad day and loses significant time the way he has the last two years. tadej simply isn't a conservative rider the way jonas is and that is his achilles heel

[@S9999Frank]

Jonas answered the explosive attack from Tadej on the uphill in one of the early stages. I agree that Tadej should win it, but only if he can avoid cracking like last year and the year before. Remco I think will crack at some point, but at his best he is a real threat.

[@BenjaminUbayyed-po9tc]

I’ve never seen Jonas be able to match Tadej when Tadej jumps. Even Jonas admits he’s not explosive the way Tadej is. That’s why I say just attack within the last 500 meters or so because Tadej needs to cross the line with a few seconds of a gap. When he goes too early like he did last year when the motos blocked tadejs second attack Jonas is able to crawl his way back. If I recal Tadej jumped with sever kilometers from the top and it went nowhere because eventually Jonas caught up. So he has to go later. But yeah. Tadej cannot afford one bad day. I’m honestly surprised that Jonas is riding the way he is. He had as dominant a start to the season as Tadej did and I think if he had the right preparation than Tadej would be on the back foot

[@S9999Frank]

@@BenjaminUbayyed-po9tc Check out highlights from stage 2 this year, there you can see Jonas respond immediately to a wild attack from Tadej, and following him glued to the wheel, while nobody else is able to follow. But yes, normally Tadej is the more explosive.

I watched it. You should rewatch it because justice new could match Tadej. He did respond but Tadej had 10 seconds at the the top of the top of that stage. And that’s the only way he will beat Jonas

Wow ! Nice conference ! Love it !It seems that Tadej is a little bit elusive . He didn't answered if he want to go with Remco against Jonas , maybe be cause he wants to crush everyone ! So God helps him ! And I do love to see how Tadej crush all his contenders . Why ? BE cause his the best of the best ! He has everything for a complete rider . He didn't complained about the gravel stage like the danish . What ? No one asked the vingegaard to compete like Tadej , Van Aert, Remco or Vand der Poel ?!! What ? No classics for the jonas ? No monuments ? No Tour de Flanders ? THere is something wrong with the roads or there is not that much competition for the defending champ ? Yeah , what a champ ! He had won the Tour for many reasons and the 2-nd reason for that is be cause his team helped him all the time ! First time Roglic was sacrified for him and the whole team was against Pogi . The second time , Tadej breaked mentally after that " Wonder TT " that amazed the entire cycling world and people start pumping questions about ... Asterix and Obelix ! You must see Tour de France Unchained made by Netflix , especially " Domination" the 6-th episode. In that episode anyone can understand something : why is Vingegaard so powerfull ! After his pro rider career was not that amazing before entering the Tour ! Hmmm ... I mean what acomplishments did he had before his first presence in the Tour de France when he beat Pogacar for the first time ? Comapring to Pogy ... And in that time trial when he has made a gap for 1:30 to Pogacar ! and almost 3 minutes over Van Aert !!! Wow ! Even Van Aert was amazed , stunned about his extraterestrial performance . And now , NOW , after a seriousl crash with broken ribs and pneumotorax he has the potential to win ... AGAIN ? Against all odds ! Tadej after a small crush he didn't recoverd fully and he hadn't a good preparation for the Tour , still, ha had just a little bone from the wrist damaged and he didn't stayed at intensiv care into the hospital !?! What is this MAN ? Another ..." unchained Tour" ? And the main question that I always have with this jonas : why is so very best only in the Tour de France ? In rest ... low competition that he won against ... and small competitions .After his first win , against Pogi , he went in Croatia Tour and he was almost beaten by othercyclists rated weaker than him !!! Say what ? And Pogi won Lombardia, again , in supreme fashion like THE REAL CHAMPION ! So what is the Real deal with this vingegaard coming from the planes of Danemark , from a pathetic form that he had when he was the last from the least !?! When at his age Pogi crushed the concurrence , ridding from the age of 12 from a mountainous country not from some planes of Danemark where the highest hill is Møllehøj, at 170,86m !!! WhaaaT ?!? And the jonas is rated as ... one of the best climber !!! 🤣🤣🤣 I don't get it ! Wow ! Such a best rider he is , this vingegaard ! Even after that terrible crash , God forbid ! , he can handle Pogacar , Roglic, Remco !!! And also said : Our time will come ! Wow ! After almost all his team mates crashed all over the places , even in this Tour , he has the guts to say : Our time will come . Yes , it will , but not what for he thinks . I just only hope that all riders will be in a good health and Pogi to do what he does best : TO WIN !

Jonas vs All of UAE + Soudal + Bora + Ineos. Jonas does not have a team to make it hard in mountains. People please stop with this nonsense that 1 rider can take on the whole peloton! Hell you watched yesterday right? Tadej tried to take on the peloton and it didn’t work. Why do you expect different results?

[@fredirojko4330]

Pogi did take the whole peloton for his first win in tour

[@jenspetersen5865]

When have you ever seen Jonas loose the wheel while secondary UAE riders pulled? Pogi wants to go slow and then explode, and Jonas want to go fast and then increase.

[@mikeheywood7521]

If Jonas launches on La Bonette, gets a gap, & bridges to satellite riders in the break, having Almeida & Ayuso hanging around isn't actually gonna do Pogi any good

[@dmitrymalanda9278]

@@fredirojko4330 The way I remember it Tadej wasn‘t an exceptionally marked rider for his first win. I was watching Primoz and surprised that Tadej kept up with him and outsprinted him often at the line; but he was not an all-out favorite to win. Candidate, yes - all out favorite, no. Jonas is in another position now than Tadej was back then, you can bet every other team will go out of their way to drop him at the smallest opportunity.

Jonas coming back from his crash and being in such good shape is amazing. However, as a Trauma physician, I can say that the seriousness of his injuries are a bit overstated. Very unusual for a 27 yr old healthy male with his injuries to require ICU level care. I suspect it was likely because he is a VIP. I see his type of injuries every shift. The pain from his rib fractures likely the hardest hurdle to overcome. Amazing recovery, none the less.

[@Hammerhook12]

Collapsed lung doesn't require ICU care? Forgive me, I don't fully understand these English expressions. Edit and punctured lung?

[@michaelwolfganglassalle1435]

The initial problem for him is that this Tour has been created for Jonas in mind. Two hard stages, and a time trial at the end. Knowing well that Jonas can be juiced to the max, with legal drugs ( A Ketone supplier is a sponsor of Visma) while Pogacar can’t take this drug as much ( last Tour he tried then next day he couldn’t feel his legs, a known site effect). Thus, Jonas will try until the last days not to loose more time, then get juiced, and then we know the outcome. Pogacar is a racer, Jonas is a Grand Tour champion who executes plans to perfection. Two different race styles.

@@tolstoyed we’re currently in the 2024 TDF season, so I’m not sure how else you’ll determine the best climber in the world right now.

Currently in my opinion, Jonas is in the hot seat until the tour ends😅

Sorry Tadej, but Jonas is not even close to 100%. Otherwise it would be useless to train as much as you guys do...just train 1 month after you rested a few month and ride the tour de france ;-)

[@MarlowWhere]

Lets be real, Pogs scawed. Losing 3 times in a row to Jonas would crush him. Especially after so much trash talking. The more shit Remco and Pog talk, the further they walk out on the wire, and the more tragic their fall will be when Jonas cuts the wire. I have no doubt Remco will fall off the podium this week. Humble pie is being made right now. The only one with a chance of winning besides Jonas is Pog.

Pog has also made some unbelievable gains in TT. He lost the 2022 stage 20 TT to Wout and Jonas as well as in 2023. If you look at the UCI worlds TT results he has always been significantly behind Remco but this tdf he was only 10 seconds behind. That's only 0.5 seconds a KM to the best time trialist in the world. Off the charts gains!!!
