@@doommonger7784 Nah, Pog been crushing it for years, before he was even 20. Dude is just good. Besides, why would he dope at Paris-Nice of all races and potentially get caught. lol Jonas needs his unreal support team and some hot weather to get Pog in his league.
Pogacar looks much wiser then at the TDF. When Jonas attacked he stayed in this wheel and didn't do any work and when everything came together he attacked when Jonas tried to recover from his attack. Very strong performance today but it will be interesting to see how he will do at stage 7 when the final climb is much longer than today.
I am Slovenian .. living here in small town Mengeš,near some 15km to Roglič and 8 km to Pogačar .. yeah Slovenia is small 20.000 km2 with 2.1 mil people living here. And when Pogacar is running here on the local hill .. my wife with the electric bike said I had no chance :) - of course. But fortunately for Slovenia Pogacar is pure talent, he could be one of the goats. On other hand Roglic living on other side of the hill .. suffer a lot in his life, sacrifice everything what is connected in his body for results. Shows us a poor battle mind against body pain. Winning Olympic Gold last year . Whenever I bike there I feel so proud.
It's a hangover from Le Tour 2020, when Pog would literally run out of domestiques and nuke the field solo because everyone underestimated him. It's a bit of a different story these days, as the team is obviously more tactical, in this case making the call to not burn the whole team for the bonus seconds to then better set up Großschartner and Pog for the final assault.
Pog is racing much smarter and being patient. JV was able to isolate him at the TdF last year. When it’s 1v1 or team vs team, Pog will come out ahead because he’s the difference maker
Pog is doing the exact same thing as last year tho. Won Tirreno with around two minutes to Vingegaard, won PN this year with around 2 minutes. Pogacar is peaking for the Ardennes classics. Vingegaard pacing his form to peak at TdF. But I do hope to see a full UAE squad at the tour this year. Pog was severely crippled by his team being decimated by covid last year.
I think that Jonas and Jumbo hopefully learned a valuable lesson today. The stage today is almost tailor made for Pogacar's strengths, and it would always have been difficult not to lose any time here. It looked to me that he was over confident and should never have attacked early on climb, and should just have paced the climb to the top, instead of trying to close the gap once it was there. Oh well, this is now over. The rest of the race is just to determine the 2nd and 3rd podium spots.
This race shows how the UAE tactical decision making has inproved since the TdF and how much TP himself has matured and become a more canny racer.. The smart tactical move to focus on intermediate bonus seconds to lessen the Impact JV's monster TTT squad powered by 2 TT World champs. The inclusion of Much stronger mountain domestiques (Bjerg, Grosschartner) to pace and Pogacar's improved discipline to use them for the entire stage and STILL pick up bonus seconds where he can. Was especially impressed by Pogacar NOT attacking with Jonas even though he clearly had the lega to do so. He realised that if he waited, he could attack later with better results and win by a bigger margin. And then when he snapped to Gaudu's wheel without giving Vingegaard any draft whatsoever and then measured his effort to ensure max bonus seconds. Pogacar KNOWS that he is the best rider in the race as he was in the TdF (next to an extra-terrestrial WvA) Tadej got smoked in the TdF because he was not the best RACER, and he has improved on his patience, his racing discipline and his tactical decision making... And he is still stupid fast especially uphill.. All this without an altitude camp!
isnt he in peak like almost whole year like even last season he was winning everything almost even though he lost tour it was though battle fro Jumbo Bees
I personally don't really think we should focus on this climb too much. It was just a bit more than 6k and these type of climbs suit Pogacar really well. He's more explosive and I think he can hold bigger power for shorter in comparison to Vingegaard. I think when there's a longer, more steady climb at a slower pace Vingegaard is the better climber. Also I think Jonas knew this was his first chance since the tour to show his form and was a bit in panic when Pogacar went for the bonus seconds (I'm referring to Jumbo Visma's documentary where they say Jonas was really sensitive and insecure). Either way, great ride from Pogacar but I think we will have to wait untill there's a stage with a longer climb, a better team for Jonas who can help to counter Pogacar's attacks and when Jonas is a bit more calm. Looking forward to stages 7 and 8 though, should be nice!
Let's see in summertime on actual mountain stages in hot weather. Pog has always been great in the cold on short climbs . I think Jonas is fine here.. nothing to be worried about actually . If he peaked now i would be worried for tdf though
I dont think Jonas is even close to his TDF Form in the early season, we literally had the same thing last year in Tirenno. Nothing to worry about for Jonas I think, he just learned alot today
yeah i felt a little bad for him there today but we can say for sure that he is still a monster - once he is back in peak form he will be able to better rival pogacar on the climbs i think
It’s early days and this is race is just a tune up (and wake up call) for all the teams. Today UAE had an excellent plan which was to put extreme pressure on all teams (especially TJV) starting long before the bonus sec climb and not letting anybody least of all Jonas get any rest physically or mentally and almost certainly to not be fully fueled with calories. That last climb showed Pog as a great tactician taking the opportunities presented by the attacks of Micheal and David to test the real situation of every GC rider and then to ride off into the distance. A huge psychological blow.
Interesting start of the season for both riders. Ruta del sol, Gran Camino and logically, or not, facing each other at Parijs-Nice. I love these two go at it.
This is what’s called spring form. It’s early season and taking into consideration Pogi’s power output and overall fitness (that allows him to race almost all year long) he can win in March, April classics, rest and prep until June/July for the tour and end in October with a monument in Italy. Goat in the making
Team UAE seems to have stepped up the support for Pogi. If Wellens and Großschartner are getting added on top of Majka and McNulty to the TdF roster, there's gonna be trouble in the mountains for Jumbo Visma.
There are a few more hills between now and the final podium - I don’t think Jumbo were foxing today, but those hills on the horizon might offer a few more opportunities yet. Game definitely not over.
lol lost one stage, which is not even his favorite one, then all the credits gone, show some respect to the TdF champion man, youre Tadej is good but he's not all cycling has :v
I think Pog is a bit angry about the Tour. This is a bit of payback. Still early doors so no worries for all. Pog seems to not be able to stop himself but he has to ride tactically better than last year. Pog needs to stop the wasting energy. I think he's on too good form, too often. He needs to chill a bit. I'm sure Jumbo will be ready. Jonas is in quite good condition; he's got loads of time to get it together. As far as Matthews not challenging Pog in the sprint, they say Pog and Matthews train together in the Monaco and are pretty good Buddies. As far as form, then VDP shows how form can come back in a pretty short time. All to play for at the Tour :)
Vingegaard is probably very disappointed in his form, but we all know that he would prefer to get dropped bow rather than in July. Pogacar and Vingegaard are both really just training now. We all know that none of their stage race wins this year will be remembered for long, unless it is in July.
Even as a Vingegaard fan I loved today’s race - him and Pog make cycling exciting. The truth is that this was unlikely ever to be a stage for Vingegaard as it lacked height, distance and temperature. Tour de France will be a different story!
@@tomaszzytkiewicz1992 Pretty sure it was Roglič and Vingegaard that started the attacks. Pogacar did like one measly attack that day, which is fine. And don't get me wrong, he's a tremendous rider. But calling Jonas or his team boring is delusional.
I think Vingegaard panicking there was pretty reasonable. Pog was riding off the front with help, and the JV boys were pretty far back there. Hindsight is 20 20 but I see why he wanted to shut down that gap himself.
I would argue that this was always the difference between them at a 1 on 1 even last year but jonas just had great teammates attacking who could double attack pog and after he cracked he was done
Pog was, is and always will win against jonas on such moderate 15 min climbs. Wonder why Jonas attacked that early and then why didn’t he just keep going his tempo just loosing bonusseconds to pog
One thing I’ve noticed is that jonas has a tendency to make rash decisions in tense moments eg closing pog’s wheel here and in tdf 22 unnecessarily, and that bike swap malarkey in the tdf
GC is never over in Paris-Nice, maybe is not for Vingegaard this year but it might not be for Pogacar either. Maybe an outsider could surprise them 🤷♀ Thanks for the video !
@@alexanderdeguzman-yj7rz UAE actually has a lot of very strong climbers, probably the strongest climbing team if you don't take into account leaders. JV actually has like only 2-3 top level climbing domestiques vs UAE maybe around 6-8 top level climbing domestiques. And if you speak specifically about PN here, UAE did a lot of work yesterday and Grosschartner a stong last pull.
In Gran Camino Vingegaard was dropping everyone on the climbs and everyone was like ' he's picked up where he left last year'...i don't even think he should be the queen in that jumbo colony .
GC for this race is over but I wouldn't read this stage as indicative of what will happen in the TdF. I think Jonas cracked because something went amiss -- hunger, dehydration, or some sort of bug. It was a 7km climb, average 7%, and max 9%. Even if he cannot close the gap to Pogacar, he is not going to be overtaken by three next-level GC riders unless something very unusual went wrong on that day.
Jonas just isn't good at this short of climbs/stages, too short and too "easy" regarding climbs. Moreover Pog is consistent throughout the year, but Vingegaard seems to need to peak more (likely to do with unsustainable low weight).
@@MDP1702 It's not poor form. A week ago Jonas crushed Rohan Dennis in an ITT and a long way back to third. There's no explanation for Mader and others catching and passing on a climb that short and easy. It was just one inexplicably bad day and I remain very confident he'll finish in the top two of the TdF.
@@rossmurray6849 That doesn't necessarily mean Jonas is good, it also can mean that Dennis just isn't great either, which isn't impossible this being his last year and early season. And the opposition in Gran Camino was really weak. Jonas has shown weakness vs other climbers in the past when he isn't great/at tour shape. He was only 16th in Lombardia last year, also wasn't spectacular in Basque or Tirreno. He only really looks much better than the other climbers when he really peaks. Also he spend unnecessary energy in that first attack of his, likely already putting some nails in his legs and then he blew up trying to follow Pog. Without that first attack or trying everything to follow Pog and blowing up, he'd be with or in front of Mäder imo. Once you blow up, your're done and won't achieve the performance you'd have done just setting a regular pace. Lastly, short and easy climbs are actually the worst kind for Vingegaard. This doesn't say anything about what will happen at the TdF, we'll see a completely different Jonas then. Though personally I always have kept Pog as the favorite for this TdF unless Roglic goes too.
@@MDP1702 Yes, the opposition in Gran Camino was really weak, but as I said, it was, "a long way back to third." Dennis beat all of the rest by 24 seconds, then Jonas beat by him another 35 seconds, in a short (18km) and flat ITT.
@@rossmurray6849 And again doesn't matter, it is the opposition that counts, for all we know top ITT riders would take another minute. The 3rd rider only once rode top 10 in an ITT higher than .1, so not exactly a good measuring stick, especially early in the season.
I thought you were going to include the clip of the ineos rider in front heading into the climb with speed and then being slowed down by the camera motorbike
JV will be stronger on days with more and harder climbs in the TdF. Then Pog wont have the same punch and the pure climbing ability of PV will prevail again.
To me Jonas looked ill. Something were wrong for sure because when he attacked with 4.3km he looked fine and was waiting for the counter from Pogacar. So Gaudu bridges and then attacks them both and I was expecting Jonas to follow along with Pog. Then when POGACAR bridges to Gaudu, something went BOOM with Jonas, like his lungs were filled with mucus. His breathing look laboured as Pog just flew away from him. Also, look at Jonas after he crosses the line, he looked DEAD. No way he could give up that much time on that 7km single digit climb.
Carry out effective, serious, unexpected anti-doping controls so as not to notice 10 years later the cunning of certain runners clearly above the lot. Which, obviously, is totally abnormal. Remember not so long ago...
Vinegegaards only chance in the TDF is if Pogacar makes the same mistakes as last year and tries to chase down every Jumbo attack. Doubt that happens. Pogo will simply mirror Vingegaard and attack only when it’s time. Vingegaard had a perfect set up last year when Pogo wore himself out trying to chase down every Jumbo attack. Won’t happen again this year.
Yet more evidence that as good as Vingegaard is, it will take a coordinated effort of the whole Jumbo-Visma squad to keep Pogacar out of the maillot jaune come July. I acknowledge that Vingegaard was not at his best today, but that was impressive from Tadej.
destroy: - end the existence of (something) by damaging or attacking it - ruin (someone) emotionally or spiritually - defeat (someone) utterly - kill (a sick, savage, or unwanted animal) by humane means Nothing from the above happened, Pogacar won a stage race by a margin to Vingegaard. Vingegaard as a pro is very well alive, he did not get ruined, did not lose utterly (completely and without qualification; absolutely), and he got not killed. I really prefer your comments over everyone else's but don't have to get carried away by influencers' needs for attention or media catering toward unnecessary aggressions. You don't need to do that, you are a great commentator with abundant knowledge in your own right!

@@MDP1702 actually Yumbo is a better team, but TP being the GOAT, he just destroyed them easily. He is a super human, amazing!
@@alexanderdeguzman-yj7rz Jumbo is the better overall team, but UAE is definitely the better team in terms of strong climbers.
'no gifts in life..."
*Unless you know Durianrider ;)
Rip gino mader
In Gran Camino Vingegaard was dropping everyone on the climbs and everyone was like ' he's picked up where he left last year'...i don't even think he should be the queen in that jumbo colony .
actually it was like 43 seconds on a 2km climb when Pogacar left Vingegaard.
These gray UAE helmets are amazing!
GC for this race is over but I wouldn't read this stage as indicative of what will happen in the TdF.
I think Jonas cracked because something went amiss -- hunger, dehydration, or some sort of bug. It was a 7km climb, average 7%, and max 9%. Even if he cannot close the gap to Pogacar, he is not going to be overtaken by three next-level GC riders unless something very unusual went wrong on that day.
Jonas just isn't good at this short of climbs/stages, too short and too "easy" regarding climbs. Moreover Pog is consistent throughout the year, but Vingegaard seems to need to peak more (likely to do with unsustainable low weight).
@@MDP1702 It's not poor form. A week ago Jonas crushed Rohan Dennis in an ITT and a long way back to third. There's no explanation for Mader and others catching and passing on a climb that short and easy. It was just one inexplicably bad day and I remain very confident he'll finish in the top two of the TdF.
@@rossmurray6849 That doesn't necessarily mean Jonas is good, it also can mean that Dennis just isn't great either, which isn't impossible this being his last year and early season. And the opposition in Gran Camino was really weak.
Jonas has shown weakness vs other climbers in the past when he isn't great/at tour shape. He was only 16th in Lombardia last year, also wasn't spectacular in Basque or Tirreno. He only really looks much better than the other climbers when he really peaks.
Also he spend unnecessary energy in that first attack of his, likely already putting some nails in his legs and then he blew up trying to follow Pog. Without that first attack or trying everything to follow Pog and blowing up, he'd be with or in front of Mäder imo. Once you blow up, your're done and won't achieve the performance you'd have done just setting a regular pace.
Lastly, short and easy climbs are actually the worst kind for Vingegaard.
This doesn't say anything about what will happen at the TdF, we'll see a completely different Jonas then. Though personally I always have kept Pog as the favorite for this TdF unless Roglic goes too.
@@MDP1702 Yes, the opposition in Gran Camino was really weak, but as I said, it was, "a long way back to third." Dennis beat all of the rest by 24 seconds, then Jonas beat by him another 35 seconds, in a short (18km) and flat ITT.
@@rossmurray6849 And again doesn't matter, it is the opposition that counts, for all we know top ITT riders would take another minute. The 3rd rider only once rode top 10 in an ITT higher than .1, so not exactly a good measuring stick, especially early in the season.
The Bruce Buffer impression 😂
Pogacar seems like someone who would sprint at the end of a race with a 3 year old just to take the W.
well done Tadji...go for yellow!!
I thought you were going to include the clip of the ineos rider in front heading into the climb with speed and then being slowed down by the camera motorbike
From a VeloNews article, July 25, 2022:
Tour de France power analysis: Jonas Vingegaard destroys Tadej Pogačar in the Pyrenees
The dog days of July are a long way off boys.
GC over and out...
Danish build for 3 weeks only.
Pog build for everything except power sprints )
Pogi looking like a seasoned vet compared to joni on this stage
Pogi is the man's man..love it.
JV will be stronger on days with more and harder climbs in the TdF. Then Pog wont have the same punch and the pure climbing ability of PV will prevail again.
To me Jonas looked ill. Something were wrong for sure because when he attacked with 4.3km he looked fine and was waiting for the counter from Pogacar. So Gaudu bridges and then attacks them both and I was expecting Jonas to follow along with Pog. Then when POGACAR bridges to Gaudu, something went BOOM with Jonas, like his lungs were filled with mucus. His breathing look laboured as Pog just flew away from him. Also, look at Jonas after he crosses the line, he looked DEAD. No way he could give up that much time on that 7km single digit climb.
If Jonas doesn’t have strong climbers to Marshall him up a climb, he gets thrashed
He has not. Many TT Guys in His Team, No Excellent climbers.
Yeah, these climbers helped him a lot in the ITT to Combloux 🤡🤡🤡
The Pog = Not just 'good legs'. Brilliant racing intelligence! 💎 So well done. 👍
Thanks LR for excellent coverage of a telling Stage. 🤗
M 🦘🏏😎
Terbaik lah Poggy
May be over for Vinny, most likely, but like you say, on a long unpronounceable climb who knows. Good coverage as usual Mr Lanterne.
Lanterne, where can I find your old videos? you know the ones i'm talking about.
You just knew this title was inevitable xD
Carry out effective, serious, unexpected anti-doping controls so as not to notice 10 years later the cunning of certain runners clearly above the lot. Which, obviously, is totally abnormal. Remember not so long ago...
Pogacar looked like he had plenty in the tank...its going to be exciting TDF. Vingegaard need better poker face if he's going to repeat.
He looked pretty exhausted during the interview and he didnt just drop gaudu of the wheel
Vinegegaards only chance in the TDF is if Pogacar makes the same mistakes as last year and tries to chase down every Jumbo attack. Doubt that happens. Pogo will simply mirror Vingegaard and attack only when it’s time. Vingegaard had a perfect set up last year when Pogo wore himself out trying to chase down every Jumbo attack. Won’t happen again this year.
@@ivanboesky1520 let's see :D
Jonas Panic is insane....i dont understand....just like tdf stage 5?
Actually looks fine for Vingegaard . Been the same every year at the start . He doesn't have to peak yet so it's fine .
This is to confirm that TP is GOAT
Yet more evidence that as good as Vingegaard is, it will take a coordinated effort of the whole Jumbo-Visma squad to keep Pogacar out of the maillot jaune come July. I acknowledge that Vingegaard was not at his best today, but that was impressive from Tadej.
destroy:
- end the existence of (something) by damaging or attacking it
- ruin (someone) emotionally or spiritually
- defeat (someone) utterly
- kill (a sick, savage, or unwanted animal) by humane means
Nothing from the above happened, Pogacar won a stage race by a margin to Vingegaard. Vingegaard as a pro is very well alive, he did not get ruined, did not lose utterly (completely and without qualification; absolutely), and he got not killed. I really prefer your comments over everyone else's but don't have to get carried away by influencers' needs for attention or media catering toward unnecessary aggressions. You don't need to do that, you are a great commentator with abundant knowledge in your own right!
