@danmc7815 12 дней назад

1. Pogacar - he has had good form this year and a month to get his head right. 2. Roglic - He showed pretty good form at Dauphine, and if he doesn't crash, he's good. 3. Evanepoel - Not quite there on his form, as he stated, but his ITT showed he is not far from it. Still, no one will let him ride away on a long break, until he loses time. And, I do not think he can ride Pogacar or Roglic off his wheel. 4. Vingegaard - his injuries have taken a big toll. If he was anywhere near healthy, we would have seen him racing by now. And, if he is close for the start of the TdF, he has a chance to ride into great form. However, his team is just not there either. Kuss is not on form, WVA is not either, and I cannot see that team risking their whole tour to support Vingegaard. The team will let Jorgenson compete for GC, until Vingegaard proves himself, and that means even less support for Vingegaard.

@veganpotterthevegan 12 дней назад

Jonas won't likely be ready. But Visma has so much depth that they're still able to staff a superteam, even if it's for Kuss. Wout at 90% is also still an outstanding domestique, and they have Matteo

I don't see how anyone can see his display at Dauphine as a success for Roglic INCLUDING Roglic himself!! If I were him or his team director I would have some concerns!! This is not something to be proud of. This is something you need to be concerned with. He BARELY saved that win!! If that stage was 500 mtrs longer Roglic would have lost that!! That's not the sign of a champ. That's the sign of someone who got REALLY LUCKY and isn't on top form. Roglic is NOTORIOUSLY KNOWN for cracking when it counts the most. This is something I would definitely be concerned with heading into TDF if I were him or the team director!! NOT what you want to see from your GC 3 weeks away from TDF!! 🤘🏻🇬🇧

@markmark2469 12 дней назад

My opinion: Pogacar is the heavy favorite! Hoping Jonas will be in good enough form to challenge. Roglic is doing pretty good with his new team, but he is going to need another gear and stay upright to beat Pogacar. Remco is probably a year away - still needs to work on his climbing endurance! The crash this Spring set him back.

I personally do t think Remco will ever be the GC everyone hopes he will be. If it wasn't for his ITT, his climbing at the Dauphine wasn't very good. I know he's coming off an injury but I really don't think Remco is what everyone hopes he will be

@jenspetersen5865 12 дней назад

My guess is that Vingegaard will come in at 95%, and ride very passively for the first 2 weeks letting Pogi guess who he needs to keep an eye on. It would be great for JV to have Roglic and other teams hunt for yellow had force Poacar to defend. Jonas will not do anything but stay on the wheel for the first 1½ weeks. and then see if his recovery gives him benefits

@2011hwalker 12 дней назад

95%?!? How did you figure that. He was off the bike for weeks. At this level thats huge-did you see how average WVA when he started racing at Tour of Norway.

@rlm4471 11 дней назад

@meibing4912 11 дней назад

Jonas is incredibly focused and tough. If anyone can train himself back in time - its him. If he can't compete to win - he is not going to TDF. Why should he? Better wait and take Vuelta and feel good about the season going into 2025. He may start TDF less than 100%. But latest by day 10 - he will have reached 100%. Pogi knows and tactics will reflect this - they will do everything to put stage seconds, bonus seconds and time seconds into Jonas the first 1½ weeks to build an impossible gap. Interestingly, not having Roglic on Vingegaard's team is going to help Vingegaard, because Roglic will fight to keep Pogi within reach and Pogi cannot just ignore him allowing Vingegaard to follow best he can at first. If he races, Jonas ends #1 or #2.

Great TDF analysis -- except, imho, if Vingegaard isn't 100 percent or very close to it he won't start. He has a psychological advantage over Pogacar he'll want to keep and 2nd or 3rd won't be good enough for him. I think he'd rather take a Vuelta win.

I hope I'm wrong but this is Pogacar's to lose; Vingegaard isn't even healthy enough to have declared yet, Remco isn't yet good enough in the mountains, and Roglic has a pretty poor team. Pogacar's "altitude training" will ensure he isn't tired.

Probably the best look at the TDF right there mate!! I don't see how anyone can see the display at Dauphine as a success for Roglic INCLUDING Roglic himself!! If I were him or his team director I would have some concerns!! This is not something to be proud of. This is something you need to be concerned with. He BARELY saved that win!! If that stage was 500 mtrs longer Roglic would have lost that!! That's not the sign of a champ. That's the sign of someone who got REALLY LUCKY and isn't on top form. Roglic is NOTORIOUSLY KNOWN for cracking when it counts the most. This is something I would definitely be concerned with heading into TDF if I were him or the team director!! NOT what you want to see from your GC 3 weeks away from TDF!! Remco is never going to be the GT GC rider everyone hopes he will be!! If it wasn't for his ITT at the Dauphine he would have down even worse. His climbing wasn't up to par Jorgensen is the big hopeful I think for TVL because even they don't know what to expect from Jonas but here's NO WAY Jorgensen can out perform Pogi!! Simply impossible!! 🤘🏻🇬🇧

@Zen_Cycling 12 дней назад

8:30 "Peak Pog or peak Remco wouldn't have been dropped by Jorgensen there" as if Roglic was peak... he's a man which shows perseverance time and time again, not to mention he crashed 2 times. Kinda disrespectful of you to phrase it like this.

Pogacar only sure thing for the top 3 (and likely the win). Too many variables for the other three of the "big four." I am sure at least one of them will also be in top 3, but I won't be surprised to see another rider sneak onto the podium.

@joeyboy077 12 дней назад

I really hope Jonas is back to near his best for the tour, and if he is I don't see him losing. He is simply too strong and consistent in the mountains. Also, I think he will only get better as the tour goes on and may be in fine form going in to the final week. That being said, you can't argue with Pogacar's form compared to the turbulent seasons of the other 3. I think peak Roglic can hang with Vingegaard (as shown aty the Vuelta last year) and Pogacar, but he doesn't look to be at his absolute best. And Remco is unfortunately not really a contender in my mind, I could even see him finishing behind the likes of Jorgenson and Rodriguez. Overall I'm going Pogi, Jonas, Rogla, Remco.

for the top GC riders it will depend on the strength & endurance of their teams, been a few crashes for some, pogi looked strong & looked like he was riding the giro as a personal challenge rather than racing for the placings, he may have peeked to early or he is in tremendous form, he wasn't happy not winning the tdf last year, vinni well who knows, due to fitness & his team, roglic has great patience, but he will have to ride pogi's race rather than his own if he wants to be on the podium

I think with all of the crashes this year, the GC race (for the top spot at least), will be over before the third week, with Pogacar in a commanding lead. Thus, the rest of the placement will be largerly determined by the shenanigans between the teams/riders fighting for lesser spots. This makes it less predictable and highly dependent on the luck. I don't believe Jonas will be in a good form, so I'm going for 1. Pogacar 2. Roglic 3. Remco 4. Jonas With riders in between them and (going on a limb here) with Roglic also being off the podium.

Can you all please come to consensus on how to pronounce Remco's surname. Is it four syllables - "E-ve-ne-poel" with the emphasis on the 2nd syllable, as some GCN commentators say, or is it two syllables - "Evene-poel" with the emphasis on the 1st syllable, as other GCN commentators say?

Pogi will win big, unless an unexpected crash takes him or his team out. A distant second will be Primoz Roglic (unless he crashes out yet again) and Bora/Red Bull. Third will be Visma and Jonas or Matteo Jorgenson unless Jonas has a miraculous rehab during his recovery Also Wout needs to be there and ready to give up his individual goals. INEOS is my wild card and could surprise us. The talent is there and if Bernal and Rodrigouz are on form it could be awesome and give Pogi a surprising challenge. Sudal, forget about them Remco doesn't have the mental strength for a three-week tour.

@kennykaniff 11 дней назад

I agree on the Remco thing. I don't believe he will EVER be the GC everyone hopes he will be. I know he's coming off an injury but he's just not a GT GC rider!! As far as Jonas goes I'm not sure what to expect. I don't think anyone knows. Their team is definitely diminished and Pogi absolutely has a score to settle and is on unbelievable form this season. It will be a shame for Pogi when he wins cos everyone will say Jonas wasn't 100% The thing with Roglic is that he is notoriously known for cracking when it counts the most. His display on stage 8 of the Dauphine is something he himself and his team director should have concerns with. He BARELY held onto that final stage. If that stage was 500m longer he would have lost the entire thing. He got VERY lucky. Not what any team director wants to see 3 weeks away from TDF 🤘🏻🇬🇧

@jesselobo3213 11 дней назад

@@dannyjensen2123 I've followed Visma Since Sepp Kuss joined the team. So, I have an idea how strong and great this team has been since Roglic started leading them. Sepp has been instrumental to not only Primoz but also Jonas. Last year's TDF team was by far the strongest team I've ever seen Visma put out and arguable one of the best teams ever. UAE also had a strong team but not as strong as Visma and that to me was the difference. The way Visma could attack Pogi until they were ready to launch Jonas was spectacular to watch and had to be hell for Tadej as his team couldn't help him during those attacks. Tadej finally faded from all the matches he had to burn to cover the attacks and that's when Jonas took over in my opinion. This year UAE brings a stronger team and Visma is in disarray and even if Jonas is at 100% which i strongly doubt he will be, Visma will not have the firepower to support Jonas like they did last year. They lost two of their riders at the Dauphine and Wout Van Eart is also recovering albeit a little faster than Jonas, but he also has the burden of having personal goals in the TDF and it will further weaken Jonas' defense. Tadej is focused, UAE's one hiccup is the loss of Rafal Majka for the TDF. I hope you're right and Jonas is at 100% because it will be a spectacular tour this year and I look forward to it. FYI, I've been a fan of Visma since Sepp joined the team, so I do root for them and was excited to see them win all three tours last year.

@ytyehyeh 12 дней назад

How did SD Worx mess that up? At best, they were trying too hard to spread the spoils of their strength across the team. I won't ding them too hard for that. Or arrogance, overconfidence, whatever. Normally they can back it up, but sometimes it is just too much even for them to handle. AvB needs to have a serious talk to the team, if only about the early celebrations, but also an attitude adjustment, not necessarily to individuals, but as a team. Or just keep going like this, winning more than everyone else, but also making fools of themselves more often than others.

@johnwestwell2241 12 дней назад

I can't see Vingegaard being ready to ride the Tour de France. His injuries are remarkably similar to those suffered by Julian Alaphilippe in Liege-Bastogne-Liege in 2022 - two fractured ribs, collapsed lung and cracked shoulder blade in his case. And we all know how long it took Alaphilippe to be back to something approaching his best. When he was being pressed about the situation during the Dauphine, Grischa Niermann didn't sound very optimistic about Vingegaard's chances of riding. If he does ride, though, it would be a surprise if he can compete with Pogacar.

The Visma managers are very tight-lipped about Jonas' progress, and it is probably for good reason. The way Pog dominated in the Giro, Vingegaard will have to do a lot more than just recover. Is it possible for Jonas to win? A stage, perhaps, but the Tour? Not so likely. Still, he should race to build his strength, even if he just helps others on his team win.

@kennykaniff 11 дней назад

The first week of this TDF is probably the hardest start ever. The first 4 stages are beasts. Jonas is going from MAJOR crash straight to TDF with not one single race day in him. The groundwork will be laid in those first 4 stages. Pogis will come out like a racehorse and put some real hurt on Jonas amd I don't see him recovering from it. IF HE DOES then we have our answer on whether he's on "the program" or not😉 🤘🏻🇬🇧

@buddyyaussy5772 12 дней назад

Too early to call. It certainly seems like Jonas hasn't had enough time to be at 100%, but he's shown a remarkable ability to recover in the past. And he's one of the very few riders (if near 100%) who can dominate week 3 even with less help from his team. I think if Jonas bows out this year, it's Tadej's to lose. But if Jonas is able to get to 100% by week 3, Tadej will be regretting his decision to go for the double.
