He's some man! Proper legend. Hope he gets the win at some stage and calls it a day.

Brilliant stage today. Pogacar a different level. Was waiting and waiting for the attack. He timed it perfectly.

He's some pup that POG, taking full advantage of everyone else's lack of fitness and miles in the legs. UAE are stronger this year too which is a big help to POG. Jumbo Visma were stronger last year and totally raped POG but the roles have reversed this year. The big crash a few months ago has worked in his favour too.

Legend!!

Yasssssssss that was class

Fair play, didn't think he could but sure what do I know

That's made my day, watched it after work not knowing anything and in the last KM I was getting a bit excited

Just watching the highlights and the final few km. So many things just fell into place for him and he positioned himself perfectly. After those first few days unbelievable performance.

Timing momentum and power. All fell perfectly. Delighted for him and he is fully vindicated for coming back. Might not be done yet either

illdecide · July 03, 2024, 10:23:25 PM

Yeah, everyone seemed really delighted for him too, MC could win tomorrow again as the stage is set right up again for the sprinters.

In reality if he hadn't had 3 seasons with that virus and crashed out of at least another 2 tours that i can remember, he could have had that record smashed a long time ago. They aren't going 10/1 on him today.

I'd like to see Bennett get competitive again. On stage 3 he had to sit up in the sprint as was boxed in but wasnt far off. Dont know what happened him yesterday was about 15th i think. Hopefully can get a clearer run today.

Great finish today. Bad fall for Roglic, hopefully he's ok. The last descent was very sketchy.

I couldn't name you one cyclist but watching the Tour lately , along with great footage of the french countryside is very therapeutic.
