- Why NOBODY Will Stop Tadej Pogačar At Giro d'Italia
The 2024 Giro d’Italia is quickly approaching, and this year, Tadej Pogačar has decided to try and go for the pink jersey. And now, since his quest begins in less than two weeks, a very specific question has started to circulate across the cycling community: “Can anyone stop him from winning the race?” It’s the first time he’s racing the Giro, and that’s why his excitement level is already in overdrive. Plus, you know he never starts a race without trying his absolute best to win it. So, is there anything, or anyone, that could stop Pogačar from claiming the pink jersey? Or will it be a clean sweep?

Pog is the kind of athlete that he wishes the top competition was there
No he couldn't win the double if Vingegaard didn't crash
@@user-bw9wz1jd9l maybe you are not literate but the first comment didnt say anything about winning double.
@@user-bw9wz1jd9lof course he could. Would be harder in the Tour de Frabce, but the giro wouldn’t change
The double is coming baby🎉🎉🎉😊😊❤❤❤
Most likely. Unfortunately, it will come with an asterisk if he doesn't do it more than once or doesn't win the TdF by a huge margin
The triple
hopefully it is, yeah, and i think that if Pog actually wins the double, Giro-TDF, that his team should let him to try and win the triple crown aswell, the Giro-TDF-Vuelta.
Double? No, triple. Giro, TDF and Vuelta.
@@michealissa1638if he wants to I can’t see why they would say no
There is no way Thomas can compete with Pogi
Agreed. I think the question for discussion is who's going to be second and third on the podium.
@ignore-fv7rc do we see a ben O'Connor podium, a kuss, does carapaz just hunt KOM'S and find himself in a podium making break, I think if we forget about 1st it will be a good race. But it's gonna be the Poga show every long climb. I bet he gains 30sec-1min every mtn stage
Head to head, certainly no way. Pogi will only lose the Giro if, like the video says, some bad luck happens. I think we will see the double for him this year, especially given what happened to Jonas.
Might as well call this the Tours of Pogačar this year.
He needs a nickname at this point... I haven't heard any, yet?
In Slovenia we call him "Pogi". There is also a team in Ljubljana that's called "Pogi team"
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz shit for cycling
I dont see a world where Pogacar doent win the Giro other than a crash. For the TdF it just depends how good Vingegaard could possibly be - and i dont think he can be at 100% unfortunately
i really doubt he will do the tour this year.
I’m not sure a 100 percent vingegaard would even beat a 100 percent pogacar. Wout van Aert supposedly won’t be riding. Roglic isn’t there to help him.
@@justinbergmans36 Pogacar is slightly better at climbs below 2000m and under 30 minutes. But he has the tendency to crack on longer climbs with high elevation and this is where Vingegaard is by far the best and gains minutes. Visma is still strong enough. Plus WvA does not ride the Giro due to his crash so he might do the TdF
... and earthquakes, they are too strong for Pogačar !
@@eonbart It's more about temperatures, the big weakness of Pogi is the heat. He can't really stand it.
At this point I’d say Tadej can win Giro, Tour de France and Vuelta.
Agreed. Strange that none of the professional commentators have begun to speculate about this. I'd like to hear perspective from Watts, Lantern Rouge and Horner. Please correct me if I'm wrong about the lack of analysis.
@@ignore-fv7rc lantern have said they think he should go to the vuelta if he wins the double before. I also think he should just scrap the olympics (which doesn't suit him too well) and just focus on worlds vuelta and lombardia in the fall
I think Vuelta will be harder for him to win then Tour because Jonas will ride it too
Im rooting for you Tadej😊🎉
"less experienced leaders" 😃
Can't wait for the Giro&Tour! He makes cycling a more exciting sport on his own. Sad to see haters label him and Jonas as doped without any proof. Pogi is the kind of guy who wishes all his competition would be 100% on Tour, but that is unlikely to happen this year.
POG and Wylie Coyote were seen driving a ACME industry van at high speed away from the Basque Country 😅
come on, Tadej 👍
How may I reach out you?
Apparently the French Farmers have pledged not to interfere with the TdF, in fact you see them cheering the race on, support the farmers
Crash is a sad news, but what happened, happened. Let’s go Tadej Giro and Tour double!!
They are taking too much risk.
In these packs riding downhill at high speed disc brakes are just dangerous in case of emergency! When Natnael lost control of his bike (bumpy road apparently) it was like a strike behind him!
I can see even a triple... also I can see UAE in some internal drama as well what if the rivals of pog come from inside UAE ... I dont see really happening BUT! is cycling we never know.
Pog-AICAR
why not a triple?
I love how we're considering earthquakes as one of the few things that can stop Pog winning lol
If he wins Giro and Tour he should take a rest and then announce the Vuelta. Even if he doesn't win that. trying all 3 tours in a year would be legendary
4:43 That's Nils Politt and not Michael Matthews 🤓
There's no challenging Poggi in his current form. Riders are going to be riding for 2nd place at both the Giro and TdF. Likely, no one is going to waste energy or effort trying to keep up with him. Only an injury from a crash could seriously stop him. Even a mechanical, or a sick day he'd be able to recover from.
UAE Team Management consists of so many people with doping history
The sport is drowning in it….
He's the big time favorite but in the TdF there will be more competition.
What about Mathieu Van Der Poel?
Let's go! He will do what no one has done since the time of the super dopers.... oh wait...
Pogacar might not need to fight particular competitors. But what if the other teams will try to make UAE suffer at the Giro? Because one single team will not manage to control the race. UAE can not catch every break away, when the others sit on their wheels. I expect this giro to present surprises.
That is a good point. In the tour, UAE had the support of Jumbo Visma (or vice versa).
But I think that will not be a such a big deal. UAE will let the stage wins most of the time (the greedy Poggy have to. He doesn't need 6 stages wins).
A surprise could arrive if 2 or more Pogacar teammates abandoned the race.
But even in that case, the only thing happening would be Pogacar much tired at the end of the Giro.
With Vinegaard out, he may well win the Vuelta as well.
this video could have been 5 seconds long
Wins by 10 or more minutes
Although plausible at this time, let's not get ahead of "ourselves", as witnessed at Basque country.. ANYTHING can happen. Thomas?🤷♂ Martinez?🤔
I can stop him
Maybe, just maybe Chuck Norris could beat him.
Mvdp Mathieu van der poel 🇳🇱 can 💖
Not in a grand tour, one day races he can!
Nobody will stop him cos all of them are Injured. Simple
I’ve assumed that all cyclists now are on drugs and are just better at hiding it.
This is so bad for the giro, boring to watch not great for attracting new audiences. It’ll be a snooze fest . 2nd place battle will be the only interesting race.
Dude is going to Giro since he knows he cant win the TdF anymore lmao. Nice plan.
We all know he still cant hang Jonas and a very long ass step climb. Pogacar is just a burst climber type. Unlike Jonas has a very good endurance nor altitude training.
Why nobody can stop Tadej ?
Let's ask his personal coach Matxin, he's in the end also the men that helped Museeuw, Bartoli, Cobo Acebo, Ricardo Rico, Iban Mayo, Piepoli and others.... who all cheated.
Thus yes the only thing that can stop Tadej is a out of competition controle on synthetic drugs.... Matxin as personal coach, Mauro Gianetti as CEO, and nobody does ask questions ?!?! 🤮🤮🤮
You are naive af if you think only one or two riders are being doped 😂
Come on Lance.... Sorry I mean Poggy
Not a fan. Obvious to me that this particular generation of riders is again doped to the max yet everyone can't see the forest for the trees. No proof, I get it, but we have heard that before. No one can stay at peak form for 8 months, no one. First time in like 40+ years I will not be interested in the Tour if Jonas is out. He was the only one that seems to have similar meds to match Pog. Good luck to him though as it will surely be a good grand tour season for him. The Giro will mostly be a parade for him as there will not be any rear competition. I'm sure the Giro organizers know the same thing and are somewhat worried that if and when it turns into a parade after day 3 or 4, many will tune out. Not very interesting to see someone attack at 60k from the finish and no one able or wanting to follow. My time will be better spent riding my own bike.
