Do commentators have a brainstorming session before a hilly stage on how to creatively announce Pogacar's win this time without being too repetitive?
Rob has a huge vocabulary because he studied languages. No problem for him ;)
prolly, I stopped watching because its so boring like last years vuelta. Instead of giving pogacar start money pogacar should pay to enter. Hes bad for business (advertisement).
@@Djuntaswould like to see a proper marketing study on this. I reckon one superstar doing something incredible reaches far more people worldwide and is more profitable than a bunch of cycling fans, already watching or following cycling, switching off because they’re bored by his dominance. When Federer was winning almost everything, tennis revenues and prize money rose significantly. Would be a surprise if it was the opposite here.
@@jooohan I hope so because the sport needs the money, but I know Im not watching, and I hear its the same in other sports where they also get bored. You mentioned Tennis. I also know people complained about Formulua 1 when that 1 guy was winning everything. Anyway Im not watching something thats pointless like last years vuelta.
@@Djuntasmost people who generate revenue are not long term fans. Cycling has worldwide attention only few times a year. TDF hands down and maybe something like Roubaix, although way less exposure. So someone like Pog doing something otherworldly spectacular at less watched race (which makes for brilliant, clickable and watchable short content on social media - which means more exposure ) is pure gold for cycling. “Uninitiated” people (people who don’t necessarily follow sport or cycling) love listening to great stories and Tadej is providing that in spades here with panache and a (very marketable) smile on his face. Sorry for being so marketing oriented. Not something I enjoy, really.
Pogi Gifted Pelizzari his sunglasses and race jersey after the stage. He cannot gift the stage win, but it showed that he respected his fellow professional rider and the incredible effort he made today....
But this was the equivalent of Usain Bolt Jogging the last 40m of a 100m sprint to win.... Dude made the best riders in the world look like newbie Cat5s. This man is a physiologic unicorn...
Abd all in short sleeves???? Incredible...
I am a little disturbed by his twice putting out extreme effort on two successive days, so far beyond all others.
That is very neat.. thanks for the post
Pogi loves the cold weather haha
Pog loves cold.
And these are not the best riders in the world.
He loves wet and cold days.
I hate these people who run next to the riders. Just stand in your spot cheering them on like a normal person.
Yes! They gain NO real extra viewing, and probably cannot focus on the relative positions of actual racers. I REALLY believe it is all about being on camera - the Influencer Disease - no kill at anything, but just HAVE to feel in the [borrowed] limelight.
@@briseboy theres reports of this happening from the beginning of bike touring. I think it's just part of the adrenaline when you live somewhere where this is the biggest thing that happens for months on end.
@@briseboyso long as they're not in the line of the riders, or too close/being a major distraction, I see no issue, but I also realize that's a fine line
It looks like he is riding in low zone 4 and didn't really even want to over take Pellazarri but it was just too easy
Yes he is
he is doping
@@andreasholzner7601 you are moping
people running next to the cyclist is so annoying. Nobody wants to see you. If I waited all day to have some idiot run in front of me at the time the cyclist come through I would be very upset.
Yet they need fans, hype and enthusiasm so they get a pass.
@@TheLemon333 They can be fans without being idiots, they so invasive.
i think its actually crazy that stuff like with merckx where he got punched by a rogue fan dont happen more often. i think its almost miraculous how "well" cycling fans behave in general. security is almost nonexistent because you cannot cover hundreds of kilometres of road. given all that i think running next to a cyclist, while i agree its annoying, is still harmless.
But the idiot also wait all day in order to run next to to cyclist! so all is fair as long as no touch!
@@mracer8 that's a flawed logic since my point is from a viewer's perspective, not the cyclist. I'm absolutely shocked more arguments and collisions with other spectators haven't come up.
1:55 "oh crap"
I think that he said properly p***o d*o in his head😂
what a brutal stage and heavy rain
I like how Guilio lifted his jacket for the race numbers
Ineos screwed up big time today. Arensman should have stayed and help G. He didn’t even beat Tibeti if the plan was to take white
If Arensman had helped G and G completely collapsed rather than just cracked, Ineos could have been out of the top 10 altogether.
I think it was an OK strategy personally.
Nothing Arensman could have done at that steepness.
You can see the moment at 1:08 where he looks back and goes "oh fuck!"
He just wants to win in every possible kit combination
😂
Last year Roglic and this year Tadej!! Our Slovenian beast ride another race!! Nowbody is close when he attack and he win tour this year too!! Go Tadej, all Slovenija is with you. In saturday I go watch the stage. 💪🔥🇸🇮
gooo
doped
So glad I could catch the finish since Max cut off at 5k from the end!
Man didn't even look to try. Pogi the goat.
Spectacular. How can anyone dislike Pogacar? He makes dominance so entertaining to watch !!
What is entertaining about this?
@@rogerwilson8023 Man on drugs wins race, yeah, fun.
@@wouterkesselseverything.
@@rogerwilson8023 We'll find out the truth eventually. Can take a decade sometimes.
@@wouterkessels maybe you disagree, which is fine, but to myself and many others, it’s entertaining to see someone so good at what they’re doing, performing - playing - at their peak, and smashing our expectations of what’s possible along the way. It’s pleasurable to witness it and to cheer them on.
Perhaps Pog could maybe fake making it look like he's trying?
Pellizaris knees very turned in? Like almost rubbing the top tube
Pog is unstoppable.
Jonas will win the TDF again this year and crush his dreams.
Jonas should move to a one day race, not only 3 weeks tours@@Mike-rm1lb
@@Mike-rm1lb Hold on mate... To recover his form after such nasty crash is not easy. Pog himself had a tough time overcoming a wrist injury last year. I do think Jonas will be there, but it's very likely he won't be 100%.

HOW 🤯🤯🤯
What was there for team Movistar !!! They pushed the pace and brought back the breakaway riders to Pog door steps . What did they expect, Pog to wait at the summit 😅😅
But now he is spoiling for everyone; fellow riders, fans, media, TV, sponsors etc.
A breakway is an integral part of road racing. It serves several critical purposes. And in grand tours, it is imperative to let breakaways be successful whenever there is nothing fight for in the GC contest. That young man winning could have earned him a big contract with a big world tour team. A Nairo win on Sunday could redeem his career.
But pogacar doesn't care. He has to crush everyone. Hubris!!
How the hell is this guy looking like he's on a Zone 2 training ride? Unfuckingbelievable.
Brilliant mad bird ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I hope he is clean..
Doesn't matter if he isn't. They are all on something so it's an equal playing field.
I was really rooting for the G and today team Ineos did not ride for him. What a flop, they had the numbers yet they left Gerait Thomas behind
LOl at 1:09 -you climb well, you are pleased with yourself, think you are doing extremely well and then look back and see Pog approaching at 1.5x your speed. It is like seeing Max Verstappen in your mirrors. A true OH F*CK moment…😂😂
포가차 좋나 멋있다
Does anyone know what overshoes Pogacar wears? Thanks
crazy
Lance is probably looking at tadej and thinking …not normal
Who cares what that cheat thinks. I mean, what he is really thinking is "how the hell does anyone cheat with the testing regime these guys go through these days".....but that isn't what you meant, is it troll.
@@MikeAG333😂
@@MikeAG333they didn't test in Lance's day?
@@imadogsass6717 Barely, and the testers weren't independant. The regime is completely different now.
@@jettrink13 Incapable of writing?
If Pogacar is a truly strong athlete, he should do his utmost to win every stage of the race. Athletes do not have much time at their peak, and each year's race conditions and competitors are highly unpredictable. Please stop with the sarcastic comments and let Pogacar go all out to create records!
doping doping
Wow! Pogi is totally from another planet! He makes climbing look easy, but us mortals know that climb is super tough!
I don't know who's calling the shots at ineos but they certainly didn't help Thomas today. Unless of course , his teammate decided on his own to leave him Behind.
Yep, trouble in the homestead
Arensman is stronger it seems comming into week 3.
@Psysso Maybe.
But I doubt he'll make it to the podium. You never leave your GC Man alone
Especially when he's in second place. Bad team tactics.
pogi is on another league!!!
The pink panther Pog..uh.char is my favourwit wider for ever and ever Amen. He clean as whistle. You all jealous of him because he do not need drugs just all natural like popeye.
Cant wait for the tour de france, cant wait for vingegaard 😈
Not sure he can even join the TDF...........
@@derekim75didn’t his coach say he’ll be ready in time for the tour?
@@alaefarmestatesllcif he’s not hitting his best training times, I’d expect Visma to send him to Vuelta instead.
@@alaefarmestatesllcmental scars are a hell of a problem when you go through something like this, him not being 100% also will hurt his chances
@@derekim75 true but dont be pesimistic
The shorter the distance, the greater the intensity. The short stages continue to make more difference in the GV than the long stages.
Tadaj giving us heart attacks...what a beautiful ride.
is doped
@@claus4952 as every rider in the worldtour. So what?
@@claus4952 Righto, troll, whatever you say. Of course, you've got some evidence, right?
@@MikeAG333 They re all on drugs
@@JudoMonizOh really? There's some evidence of that, right? I mean, they're independantly tested every single day, and out of season, and the samples are kept for re-testing as technology changes...but obviously these tests are either frauds or incompetent, right? They caught hundreds of cheats at the Olympics, but can't find any amongst the cyclists.........so they're obviously stupid/ corrupt/ frauds.
Tell me what I've got wrong.
Dude just finished his zone 2 ride
Tour de France Bring it on... Team Jumbo Visma your next....
Pogi will get revenge
Pogashark!
What a disaster for team Ineos, this was a knuckle head move 00:12 with this rider not sticking with Gerait Thomas and pulling him through, what was him he man!!! . I was really rooting for the G😢😢
Taking it easy for the TdF and still wins the stage. Wow
I think guys we have the Max Verstappen of cycling
Lance Armstrong of cycling...
You've got a doped up monster yeah.
Bjarn Rijs
nah, its the legs, not the bike ... also he looks like he not trying in the last KM at all 😎
Max who?
Crazy how skinny Pog's arms are. They look like twigs.
No blood and oxygen being wasted fueling arm muscles. Every sport has its ideal body type. He wouldn't be a good sumo wrestler and vice versa.
with legs like that you don't need arms
@@bdonthebrat5021Did you ever see Froome's at his peak? He made Pogacar look like Arnold Swarzenegger.
his arms lost a lot of size since the beginning of the season. They burn insane amount of calories. there are more extreme cases though like vingegaard at the end of the Tour de France
i feel like he built muscle compared to last year, feels much fitter
This is what happens when you practice....
Those who watched 2023 TDF have seen his limits as a man...
Best giro ever! Go Tadej!!
Tadej pogacar ❤❤❤
Only vingegard can beat this man😮😮😮
Or Vinky's superstar team I think you mean, if their not injured; no Rog this time mind you, might tell.
If he's fit enough for the Tour.
Zone 2 at 500 watts 🤣
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
1:57 ah FFS
Love the way Pagačar rides
Pogi tenaga badak. doping apa dia?
Minum cakoroi
Con la calzamaglia a vinto a vita ❤😂🎉
What is van der Poel's level compared to Pogacar? I remember him being absolutely dominant wherever he started this year, or is the weight disadvantage too big for Tour de France?
Van der poel isnt a high altitude climber and has a big disadvantage in a 3 week race.
@@Psysso ah ok, thanks 👍
Just a training ride
Why bother racing?, should of just given the trophy to Pogacar the first stage
Its no exciting Giro, no competition, one to forget
Well only from the second place down.. hopefully we don’t se any surprise in the future
THIS GUY IS NOT A FRICKING HUMAN AT ALL.....
Juice is good
Sleeping in hypoxic tents and the ability to take things and then alter oxygen levels to remove said things also helps big time.
@@TravellingJuntsmaybe for you..
Wouldn't it be better for a runner to go to uphill footrace and run for himself, rather than berating others?
"Yes well..." THE Kelly phrase. Ugh.
I'm thankful I can fast forward when kelly starts talking.
@@RicDrgn I miss Robbie McEwan commentary for the whole race.
Poggy crank look shorter
Its probably just the 165 mm cranks, that must be it. Pog is not normal and thats ok
Poga is such a beast....
These idiots that ruin it for everyone, stay away from the riders ffs like 95% of the spectators that respect the rules
So nothing suss going on here I guess? Just Tadej again obliterating the competition without even looking out of breath?
As others have already said elsewhere, the competition in this years Giro is not that hard for Tadej compared to lets say what the TDF is going to be like. We will see how that plays out
No nothing suss. Certainly not today. If you want suss, try last stage or, for instance, Strade Bianche 2024. Pogacar said he will attack 80K from finish line before the race started, attacked roughly around 80K from finish line and soloed to victory. So, no. In grand scheme of things, today is not suss at all. The race is only as entertaining as good are your greatest rivals. Pog doesn’t have a rival here but that was obvious before the race started.
Motor doping.
His biggest rival is 38...
@@celestialemissary4934 actually, based on several mountain finishes - it seems like his biggest rival is 28 (Dani Martinez). Not that it makes much difference overall.
I see that history has taught professional cycling nothing
I see that life hasn't taught you that vacuous hints mean nothing.
He is tearing everyone up…. What a show…. Hates the spectators by the way….
kinda weird he wins again and again and again and again and again... (good though!!)
Pogi can win cold rainy mountain finish, everyone knows that...but why? Why cant him just ride conservatively and safely in anticipate for the Tour...Or the rest of Giro is his training ground now...??
I have similar questions. Perhaps he is feeling so strong that this is what "not trying too hard" looks like. It's either that, or pressure from his team to win stages, or plain old hubris.
Maybe this was him riding conservatively
This was an easy effort for him relatively, also the stage was significantly shortened making it even easier. Why wouldnt he win, its glory and money at the end of the day.
just look how the turn is taken by the first two riders 1:20
pellizzari goes really wide to avoid the water. pog goes for a better ''apex''. going up mountains fast these details are very important yet it seems only few still focus well on where to ride and not to just breath and turn pedals shaking the head ''overwhelmed''
I do not understand how in this professional era when (presumably) all teams have access to the same tech, training methods, nutrition, etc, that ONE man can be notably better than everybody else. I used to believe in cycling, but have been made to look an idiot too many times. Doping, mechanical doping, jiffy bags, over dosing on inhalers. Can somebody explain to me how this is possible?
you are asking for details that are worth a lot of money. team dont share everything they do. they dont all eat the same, they litteraly dont all have the same bike frames and wheels and also every human is unique and everyday is different
also age infulences, he could dominate for a long time now
stop assuming doping, doping is just some enhancement and everything within the rules is being used by everyteam. that is what is proffesional competitive sport is about
@@samyarabi9033 They all have access to the best nutritionists in the world. They (the big teams) all have the money to access the best tech in the world. Every human is unique but there are limits. Are you telling me that this one human is worlds better than all of these other humans that dedicate their lives to this sport in the same way that he does? I just find that incredibly hard to believe. Forgive me for being slightly sceptical when it comes to professional cycling.
@@Stubbo1950 if you think science is that simple you need to look for more. just because they all have money and nutrisionist doesnt mean all nutriosonist give the same nutrition instruction to their team
this is just 1 details there are many. just enjoy the show. if we are to look for cheaters we should find those cheating in the political system first. this is sport. they get tested. they also have honour but they also always try to push the limits of enhancement in all kind of form. from sticky bottles to legal medication that has some positive hormonal effects for recovery.
what are you exactly implying ? the guy is full topped on EPO and they cant test properly ? the guy is using blood Xfusion like armstrong ?
why not, who knows but untill you actually have proof this is pure speculation.
I believe the accepted theory some places is that most riders dope in some form or another but some just react extremely well to the typical substances.
Ridiculous
Calm down, it's a weak field.
@@sandydennylives1392 I know, G certainly isn't where he used to be. It's how comfortable he looks on a hill in that weather that's ridiculous
@@kennyramsey4555 It rains a lot in Slovenia and it was a short stage with only 1.2 KM's of Pog effort. Perhaps he's so far above the field he's just on training rides; there have been no savage out of the saddle explosions and he was fresh as a daisy before the giro, or there's a new wonder drug that's better than EPO.
Modern day cannibal. If he also wins the tour surely they would send him to the Vuelta to try for the triple.
It looks like he cannibalized his own arms. They are like twigs.
Tadej is an incredible rider - potentially the best ever.
But god would it be interesting to know what drugs he is taking
Why watch cycling guys if you believe the guy is a doper? Isn’t it more likely he’ll go down in history as the best or 2nd best ever. He’s beating a bunch of inferior riders in this Giro and has shown he can be beaten at the TDF. I think the comparisons to LA are unfair. In his whole LA had two legit wins - worlds and FW other than his 7 doped tdf wins. This guy will have three grand tours, 6 monuments and several other big wins at 25 before LA had a single TDF. Give him a little credit. If you can beat MVDP and WVA at Flanders and win the TDF in the modern era it makes you a one of a kind rider
ARMSTRONG THE SECOND
It's not you country guy?
Fly now pay later unfortunately
wipe the camera!
I am sick to death of watching Pojacar. He is a talent but his 100 percent doping. He does not even break a sweat. This is the same evidence we saw with Lance Armstrong.
100% doping with 0 proof ?
ok next
I must assume most of those who find his performances as just incredible and wonderful to see are under the age of 40 or perhaps new to professional cycling.
We knew Lance was doping by how easy he made it look. I don't see any difference with Poggy.
Can anyone else win a stage? Boring.
Would be too much to ask that Kelly to learn to pronounce Pogacar's name correctly?
Boring Giro, won early now a precession…..have to applaud Pog though, whatever he is doing it working
Pogachar, either is not human, or doped. We'll find out the truth in 20 years, after he retires. Remmber me of Lance Armstrong.
ia doped.
Power to weight. He puts those numbers out whilst being super light. He's probably 10 or 15 kg lighter than LA.
Of course he's doping, but you don't believe the INEOS chaps aren't either. Thomas was a no one in road cycling and then magically transformed, albeit, not as much as the Kenyan lad.
@@NightShooter87 He won world records in track cycling before the road, so Thomas was not a no one
More drugs to Pog! YEAHHHH!!!
Yup, watching Pogi is super boring, just like Merckx😂
boring ? dont you see how he is leaving everybody behind ? the cadence is like a clock the focus is astronomical he seem's to be aligned from inward to outward
the guy is so brillant you fools are blinded by the beauty of the performance and the power its display
What a horrific spectacle seeing Pogi today: short sleeves with trousers? It's always so ugly for me to see that.
El tiempo pondrá las cosasa en su sitio,al estilo de Lance Amstrong,el doping ganó el giro.
Smells dopping
Dear god Sean Kelly is awful
Lance Armstrong Jr. One day they'll figure out how he's doing it. You can see him choose to slow down because it would look too bad. Another person ruining cycling.
I watched him win The Amgen when he was a teenager, and I doubt he's been doping the entire time since then. If he all of a sudden became this good, I'd be suspicious.
@@RicDrgn it's just eerily similar to Armstrong. I defended him for years refusing to believe he was doing. Now, whenever someone is WAY better than everyone else I doubt them and so far they've all been proven to be dopers. Maybe I'll be wrong this time. 🤞
This Giro is not even interesting to watch.
I wish they would cut back on his “advanced nutrition and cycling gear”. The dude isn’t even breathing hard. 😂😂😂😂 when do we say this out loud?
Pog is better than Lance.....LOL......Chemistry is winning Giro......
