  • Lance, JB, George, and Johan break down Tadej Pogačar’s dominant performance to grab his third consecutive victory at Il Lombardia, before going through the major takeaways of his 2023 season and judging his overall accomplishments. They also dig into the sheer difficulty of this race, as well as Primož Roglič’s up-and-down performance and his confirmed move to Bora-Hansgrohe for the 2024 season. They wrap up the show by reviewing the Jumbo-Visma/Soudal-QuickStep merger that didn’t happen and Mark Cavendish’s decision to return for one more year of racing.

    Thanks for a great season, guys. Great point by George about the mental toughness of Primoz Roglic. Bora was a good choice for him. You could say the same about the mental approach of Jonas Vingegaard. His focus is on winning the TDF and nothing distracts him from that. I don't understand Tadej, though. Nobody can win them all. Why can't he have a rational long-term plan for each season and stick with it? The one time he went head-to-head against Jonas this year besides the TDF was at Paris-Nice, where he crushed Jonas and everyone else. Who remembers that besides me? And even sensei Johan has to look it up to confirm Tadej is the no. 1 rider in the world rankings by a huge margin. To me that illustrates Lance's point that the UCI rankings, significant though they may be, don't capture our imagination the way the TDF does. Which Lance won seven straight times.

      Look, Pogacar's real goal is not beating the TDF record, I am sure that if he gets it will be great, but his real goal is to be remembered as one of the all time greats. Besides 2 TDF wins, he has one already 5 monument wins, so career wise he is much ahead of Vingegaard who has won 0. If Vingegaard ends his career with 2 TDF's more than a Pogacar with 10 monuments more, only Tour-centric folks will think Vingegaard is the best of the two... because to be one of the all time greats in cycling you NEED to win more than the Tour.

    Remco said he stays with Soudal. Here's what he said today:
    "The team continues, so I will stay,” he said, putting an end to the speculation.
    "There were a few difficult moments, but next year we’ll go for it," he added, with the Tour de France the expected major goal.
    So it will be interesting if Ineos is still chasing him. Maybe he just said to calm down the speculation after the merger/take-over bust? we shall see over the winter. This whole thing with the JV merger/takeover doesn't give a good impression of Bakala's commitment to support project Remco to stay with Soudal.

    It is clear that Pogacar wants to be a COMPLETE racer, not a TdF only sort. Pogacar's season was far better than Vinegard. Despite what Lance says, the TdF is NOT the only race. There are other important races, the Tour of Flanders is a crown jewel in any racers palmares. Pogacar still won 2 stages and finished second on the TdF. Winning Flanders, Amstel and Fleche is by itself a great feat. Pogacar is simply bad to the bone, as Bobke would say.

    Say what you like Pogacar wins this that or whatever.
    The best cyclist is the one who wins the tdf.
    That is what the public sees as the best cyclist. This is why the tdf course needs to change and include 100km of flat ITT like it used to. The best all round test for a cyclist should be the tdf.

      So its Jonas with TdF win? Can Jonas win any of one day races Tadej did? LBL or Il Lombardia perhaps?

      No, that's what cycling ignorant folks such as yourself see as the best cyclist. Real cycling fans know that you can't just win a three week race in July and be considered the best rider in the world. Actually, this year there is an argument to be made about Vingegaard but just because he came second at the Vuelta, won the Dauphiné, Itzulia instead of just winning the Tour... For me Pogacar is still the number 1 though...
