Maijka drilling it for Pogacar was superb
I wish Eurosport would show us a GC standings list at the end of these vids.
You beat me to it.
it takes 1 sec to google
They do that with the highlight video that gets posted later. This is just showing the finish, and I'm guessing they want to get this posted as quickly as possible.
They did eventually yes I was waiting for go aswell!
@@riquelmeone You're watching a race where (usually) every second counts. Some people prefer to save even a second.
Pogacar making tier 1 riders look tier 2
Well, he is tier 0.
He is teir 1 with Jonas. Roglic and Thomas are tier 2
exactly
@@veganpotterthevegan There has to be a separate tier for someone who can beat Pogi in back to back tours.
more like his doping doctor making the other doping doctors look tier 2
Lead out by Rafal of UAE was perfect. Set up Pogacar for the stage win.
The fact that Majka dropped after first attacks, was allowed to return back and then went to the front for a minute does not make this a lead-out. Pogacar would have smoked the field had he decided to go full gas after Majka dropped. Showed some restraint and smart riding (at last).
@@jooohan you didnt watch full stage bro xdd he was with him all the time and it's incredible that he had power to come back and lead pogacar to last 400 meters
@@mikoajtrebeusz2693 I watched full stage, buddy, and this wasn’t a lead-out. At least not in the classical sense and purpose.
@@jooohanlet them fools call it a lead-out if they want to.
No one had the power to drop Majka apart from himself (and Pogacar obviously), he came back, made a bit of tempo again and that’s it.
I’m with you, not a lead-out.
@@riquelmeone 👍
yeah, just a bit of CZcams comment banter. No goal to convince anyone of anything, really :P
What a performance by Rafal Awesome.
Can’t blame the other GC for not trying. They know they’re just waisting their energy against Pog😂😂😂
He makes it look so easy but man my head hurts seeing him sprint like that
Isn’t that worrying?
Tadej looks like he's on a weekend wine tasting & sight seeing tour!! 👍🏻🚵🏼💯
As boring as the gc competition is, I love how pogi just loves to race. This giro he's just having fun out there
Everyone looks like they are working hard except Pogacar. Utter control.
Isn’t that worrying?
These are ultra elite athletes at their peak and one rider is so much stronger he makes them look like tier 2 riders?
I am old enough to have seen this before. The last time I believed the fairytale.
@@tommaguzzi1723 exactly
Rounds of aplause for Tiberri
The only one to attack Pogacar
Cat 's killer 😅
Rafal is such a top rider. He is definitely better than most GC riders of other teams
He is good but not at the level of Sepp Kuss.
@@tonyg3091kuss of this season is not on level of majka so expect suffering from kuss on tour
@@nakawesiabia6311 Ehhh, how many times did you watch Sepp already?
Suspicious ...
@@nakawesiabia6311 I am sure he can be a top GC riders if he give it some focus ... They must be paying him a bucket load to race for POg
All those accusing Pogacar of doping! Doesn’t it ever occur to you that if he had something to hide he would be a little more circumspect? He’s a young man at peak fitness who just loves racing.
Yeah. Sure. All natural. Just eating, training, resting 😂
Although he does make it look like the others don’t train at all. The top 1% in the world and he completely destroys them without breaking a sweat 🤷🏻♂️
😂💉
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@GerhardVA the field is trash, everyone of pog's opponents except for thomas would be lucky to finish top 10 in the TDF
I know it looks greedy sometimes but its a team sport and he wins to pay back his team for putting in the work..
The guys in Eurosport studio talked about this at length, including one of EF sport directors (an American gentleman, forgot his name unfortunately). He said it’s a race in the end, Pog likes winning and that, as you pointed out, a stage win prize money is a way to thank your fellow riders. Plus UAE did that with relative ease today (considering tomorrow’s stage and a rest day after that).
Pogi never gets into red zone. Today was like training ride for him with short finish sprint.
It’s wild how easy he makes it look against other pro’s
💉
well done by his team and Majka lasted very long today
Superb work by Rafal Majka... super human
He’s not even out of breath.
Doping will do that....
Majka is great
The fact that Pog and the team were able to fend off breakaways with so much ease it astounding
The cannibal.
The only one who had balls to attack was Tiberi.
Ball or knuckleheads
more legs than balls id think.
you call that an attack..? lol
@@pucuk1668 i mean some people in the back of the group struggled cause he attacked. And it wasnt all in attacks, so i guess he’s attacks were fine.
Wow what an attack...100meters then dead
Tiberi testing the waters 😅😅😅 not once but twice . That was impressive
Putting himself fast in red attacking 100m
He’s a knucklehead
That pogacar kid is pretty good.
Tiberi looking strong. Maijka looking like domestique of the year.
Dopa-Palooza! 😂👍
Martínez 🇨🇴👍✌🏻
Madness. Taking risk while leading with a big margin. I love it
Rafał zrobił niesamowitą robotę. Tadej musi po tym etapie postawić dobrą kawę.
Makes the 80s/90s look slow.
Great team work UAE
Complete control. Got a bunch of rivals to pull him to the line. They probably were waiting for pogi to get greedy and attack with 3-4 km and to draft off him (which would be a feat in itself). But pogi just sat still until it all winds down toward a sprint, and some had to try and go.
He reminds me of lance Armstong before drugs😮
There is no Lance Armstrong before drugs 😶
@@nicholasbromley5998No you’re right but Lance was dominant among the dopers. I don’t think you could win clean during that period as poor old Greg LeMond found out.
@@Chiller11 Very true. Everyone doped during the Lance era but Lance doped the best. It makes you wonder how he would have done if everyone were clean.
Doing or not, those were some epic TDF battles...
Awesome ride from Ben O’Connor.
Spectacular race🎉❤🎉 all cycling lovers are invited to enjoy such a location & organize more cycling competitions out there in the wild, gorgeous stage today, Tadej slow down plizzzzzz, there are other two weeks very tough, save the legs and...let other riders get some hopes, let the suspense go on, fans love youuuuu guys no matter what ❤🎉❤
Let him win it in 1st week and save energy for tour
Pog's a league above. Mountains, time trials, sprints, he's just having fun.
Lawdy, the kid is strong! Wow!
Pogi is at a whole other level! Wow!!
Why no gradient and avg speed shown
This looked so effortlessly. What a beast.
What a teamwork, what a great ride presented by Rafal Majka! Congratulations for whole UAE Team!
Pog's Power to weight is just insane.
Get you a super climbing domestique like Rafal Majka.
The man was exceptional today...
Just give him the trophy already
the end of giro, Pogy is the champ!! 🇸🇮🇸🇮🇸🇮
Well, it was clear from the start. The only question was and still is: will burn too much or will spare what it need for the Tour?
@@MicheleGardini time will tell :)
@@MicheleGardinihe wants to win it in first week and save his energy for tour and Olympics
@@nakawesiabia6311 not a bad idea.
To me, there is no way Pogacar could keep responding to the many attacks in the last 5 and still have gas to blow away the sprint to the finish.
I wouldn’t call any of those attacks. When you have this level of form you control what happens. It’s fun to watch. Eddy Merckx used to do it a lot
@@foldupaudi7645agree. none of these so called attacks bothered Pogacar the slightest. He saved his energy for the weeks to come.
If you want to see him crumble, watch stage 11 Tour de France 2022. Roglic and Vingegaard broke Tadej quite spectacularly. He is a better rider now and, most importantly, the guys here are two tiers worse riders than Jonas and Primoz. Plus these were half hearted attacks at best…speculative would be the word.
When pogacar will ,then he can go solo to finish from far too. He dont need gain time on anyone, veru good decision from him go to sprint
@@jooohanlet’s wait and see how jonas and roglic will crack him on tour but what I know this year is him to shine and he trained for double if not triple and gold medal 🥇 in Olympic
It's like watching F1
He's toying them like a cat on a mouse.
That was a gutsy lead out at the end of the race.
He made that look like a sprint finish rather than a climbing one
I find it exciting to see a rider so dominant. Go Faster Pogi!😊
Incredible
Pog is in elite level ++ whilst the rest are « merely » elite.
Majka❤❤❤ Pogi❤❤❤
Even when there’s no spoiler you already know
Congrats Pogi
Jiffy bag tech has certainly stepped up since 2011
Pogačar "Strawberry Fields Forever". This is not the Algarve. Felipe Martínez thought that he was going to attack Remco. If it were not for Antonio Tiberi there would be nothing to say about the stage. He was moved by the anecdote. Bad idea to put a high mountain stage after the time trial, there was more to lose than gain.
Absolutely awesome pogacar😮
Good ride by martinez, following the Jonas protocol. Tadej will ALWAYS burn matches for the stage win. Only missing part was attacking at flamme rouge to bait Pogi into coming around at 800w for 2 minutes.
Congratulations 👏 Tadej pogacar
Majka is unreal
Rubió 🇨🇴
Giro of pog!
He's like a shark toying with its prey
For those guys saying he's doping the others are probably doping too its just he's really better
Oh I see we have a Lance Armstrong fan in the bunch
@@wbg2209 who's that?
kids can't go beyond hate and love. It's only black and white for them, because, you know, if you only have an hammer...
He's not even tired, Pogi is ridoculous
We are waiting for Pogacar on the mortirolo and Stelvio
A verdade é que tem duas corridas... Pogacar e Vingeegard e uma corrida para o resto. Quando um dos dois não está ( que é o caso desse Giro), fica muito fácil para o outro.
What does “fish bump on the table” mean?
I would like some stats Vo2max numbers of all those ridrrs why is Pog so much better?
his vo2max is reportedly at 89.4, but more importantly, according to the UAE team doc, it seems like pog doesn't get the same lactate buildup in his muscles as other riders. his body clears out lactate faster and he burns fat as opposed to glucose for longer. this also explains why he can still kick so hard after a long, arduous stage, because his glycogen reserves (which are needed for short hard efforts) aren't even being touched all day long.
jonas vingegaard for example has a much higher vo2max, apparently he reached the second highest ever measured across athletes of all sports, however vo2max isn't an exact science and shorter tests often provide higher values than longer ones
Unbelievable 😂
Pogi 🚴🚴🚴💪💪🐐
Waiting for the next time when, Pogi, MVDP, Remco, and all the other beasts fight out in the same race.
hats off to Maijka...
Dopped out of their minds
Please stop with the terrible naming of these videos. We're watching anyway
So basically Pog is Dash from Incredibles 2 and UAE yelling at him to win, but only a little bit lol.
Pogacar is the 🐐🐐
pogacar - never ending show {LOL}
Pogocar looks out for a stroll and the others look like they bonked.
Pogacar needs to starts conserving energy for the tdf
He was doing that today
Will Pog also be riding the Td France and Vuelta this year?
Just give Maglia Rosa to Pogacar..
What, another one?
So if Pogacár gets help from his team he will be unstoppable?
We're watching one of the best to ever do it.
Solid dominance + competition not up to defy it....
This reminds me the Armstrong times. The dominance. The not looking tired. Smells bad
GANA OTRA VEZ EL DOPAJE?
It should be obvious that the only peer of Pog is Merckx.
Another hat throw
Pogacar🎉
Great and perfect lead out by UAE’s Rafal. Set up his leader Pogacar for the win.
Yes because he's using motor dope bike.
I like the Sean Kelly commentary.
You must be the only person in the universe lol
Nairo, vendedor de Humo !
SUPER DOMESTIQUE
🚴♂️🚴♂️🚴♂️🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷💕💕💕💕
There is something wrong with Pog that we do not know today. It is too easy for him and i don‘t enjoy him, the contenders are all athlets and suffer, Pog seems to have help from somewhere in space.
the hanibal is here again
Dominating 😂😂😂. All his top competitors for GC are all out and injured and are just now getting back on their bikes and training. Of course, he is going to dominate..!! I don't know why everyone is so excited it makes for a boring 21-day stage race unless the breakaway gets away and wins. But getting up and knowing one rider is going to win almost every stage is boring.
요나스가 저 뒤에 딱 붙어 있어야 완성인데 ㅠ
