Shoutout to Carapaz for making these last few stages exciting
For real tho
Proper bike racer
Absolute gunslinger 🤩
and winning pokedot, not sure if anyone really expected that the first two weeks.
Carapaz is the luckiest cyclist in the peleton. He only won the olympic gold medal because no-one wanted to work with Wout to catch him. He took polka dots in the same way this year. He is a fake.
Carapaz is so good, haha. Constantly looks like he's spamming the turbo button in a video game. Love his style.
Same. Might be my favourite rider atm. Just sad he didn't pace himself a little better today, 'cause he could definitely have taken the stage today with a better strategy.
Strong rider, not a GC contender.
Top 10gc, yes. Podium, no@@AshKetchhum
@@AshKetchhum Carapaz has won the Giro and podiumed in the Tour and Vuelta. How is he not a GC contender? He might not be quite there with Pogacar and Vingegaard for the win, but he's pretty consistently been a GC contender.
You said it really on point
Did anyone else see the running fan in yellow and pink at 5:59 getting pushed by the motorbike rider 😂
Good shove. At one point I saw the cameraman on the moto take a hit from behind.
Saw it live lol. Right before that 2 fans bumped into each other and were about to start fighting lol. It was a wild moment 😂
@@Matt_W8 ya those 2, one was trying to get that other guy that was running next to the riders off the road
Beautiful
yep and loved it , lots of runners were pushed also.
Almeida, setting the pace for Pogacar in the last climb, being a domestique for Evenepoel's attack, and acting like a captain to secure his 4th place in the GC: a complete rider, we could say...
UAE really got 3-4 GC riders riding for Pogacar while still riding for GC
Bonkers!
@@KevwePatani That's that Emirates money talking, not much VLB can do against it really. I think even if Jonas had not fallen, this would have been a very hard tour.
@@MarvinWestmaasnope it wouldn’t had made a difference.
That’s why Almeida will ride the next TdF too. And the next after that. And Ayuso will be sent to ride Tour of Montenegro. Or Lithuania.
@@MarvinWestmaasIt wouldnt have. If Sepp, Wout, Kruiswijk and Van Baarle were here in form. Next year with Simon Yates, Campenaerts and everybody in form, Visma will be as formidable as UAE. 2025 can be glorious.
5:59 moto giving the chucklehead a good shove, glad to see it.
I saw that and laughed out loud hahaha. Before that moment, a fan was running after pogacar and another one pulled him in to the side of the road and then the guy that was pulled was engaging the other one. Probably a fight? Lol 😅
@@563985jthose 10 seconds were some of my fav moments in todays stage lol
Chucklehead was pushed right into the douches.
yeah there were quite a few 🤡🤡🤡on the roadside that i found myself shouting & swearing at today;
one numpty had his back to pog/ving (or it mightve been carapaz/mas), looking up the road to the camera moto, hunching over and holding a cardboard sign as he awkwardly ran directly in front of the riders with not a lot of spare road to get round him or at least they would've had to deviate significiantly to round him had they wanted to attack.
eff knows what his precious sign said, i was too busy swearing my head off, telling him to get out of the way!
hope the screenshot was worth the grief you ought to get when you post it online, you 🤡...
American TV
Phil Liggett: I think Tadej will show class and gift Jonas the stage win here.
Bob Roll: Have you been watching this week?!?!? If Tadej gifts the win I’ll eat my cowboy hat on national TV. 😂😂😂
Gifting stages is not the way. An american.
Why should Pogi gift anything to Jonas or Visma?? Jonas said he actually wanted Pogi to give it yo him.. lost some respect for him..
Have to assume it's coming from the NBC/Peacock producers, who obviously are pushing that narrative. They clearly are part of the Millennial cohort who was raised with the participation trophy mentality.
They were too busy chugging beers to realize that's what VLB wanted. @@LadyBird-n2t
@@LadyBird-n2t No, that's been lost in translation. Jonas said that he was HOPING Tadej would gift him the stage but that he didn't expect it.
I remember when the most random arse riders used to contest breakaway wins. Now you've got to have at least a grand tour podium on your palmares to stand a chance 😂
That's what I thought of as well. Like Bardet Carapaz Hindley Mas and so forth are the only ones who can even contest mountain breaks. They all podiumed or won grand tours
Right now pogi and jonas are just so so strong, they can contest stages and GC at once.
Or the break can work together better. Nobody was putting effort except for Mas and Carapaz today.
This year especially has been such a weird race. The breaks have been given almost no leash. Some stages there was barely a break at all, and others they've caught the break super early.
The breaks have been on a rubber band @@Driver8takeabreak
That bottle handoff was hilarious
Haha yes, that's when I knew Vingegaard was back to his old self, no way you're doing that unless you're feeling good 😂
soler once again getting into drama
Kelderman squirting Pogi with the bottle not long after cracked me up as well.
Just realizing now there is no final ceremonial sprint stage with champagnes etc, bummer. Will feel incomplete without Paris. Wish they had done something to supplement Paris for the sprinters who survive three weeks.
monaco will be cool tho as an olympic interim year
Also the fact that GC is fully dead, like maybe Rodriguez and Yates will swap 6th or 7th and that's it. With the Champs Elysees the battle for the stage is always epic
lol at vingegaard flicking his elbow at 0:06. nice to see them joking around, what a stellar rivalry
did it 4x times, offfering pog a 5th
I know he said he won’t, but pogi better go for the Vuelta, if he doesn’t he will be blowing a once in a generation opportunity to do the triple.
Up to UAE?
Just posted same, didn't see you comment, yea, he should try it, or does he prefer an olympic gold?
@@MattyBradI think it would be a mistake by UAE to not let him, if he were to win they would get a lot of publicity
But I would only go if Vingegaard doesn‘t. Otherways it would be too much of a mental and physical load. But if the others don‘t go it might be a good idea to give it a shot.
Genuinely .. he should go for vuelta…
He won’t win Olympic Games and he won’t win worlds.
MVDP is too strong.
Next year or year after he can go for that
Massive chapeau to Jonas for finishing no. 2 in the TdF three months after almost dying in a downhill crash.
People are so shocked at what Tadej is doing - and they should - but they're also comparing what he's doing to Jonas and I'm thinking...the man almost died and had a terrible prep. What do you want?!
Man's second best this year on terrible prep. I like both Tadej and Jonas, they're aliens. I love seeing them compete.
@@Real28Real fans do, and if they don't appreciate either rider, well then they're not real cycling fans. Simple
Truth. And stupid Matt Keenan keeps running him down saying that Remco was also in the crash so he was also disadvantaged. No mention of the fact that Jonas almost died and Remco only received mild injuries. I'm not going to disrespect Tadej though. He destroyed everyone this year.
Has there been any pictures of him crashing? Maybe it never happened and it was all about him getting juiced up
@@emanuelpetre5491 you're joking right?
So much internecine rivalry going down on that final climb. Loved it🤣🤣
Landa has been amazing on this tour. I think quick step should considering to bet on him as GC leader on la vuelta. Him and Almeida have a big chance to get something, especially because we don’t know how well roglic’s form will be. If giro and tour were both “boring”, la vuelta is gonna be a very different story
Totally agree! They've served what they need to serve. Let them cook at the Vuelta!
Can landa even TT?
@@daviddang82 I don’t think so, but I believe he can take some time on mountains, and just be average at TT, like kuss did last year
Even if Roglic's form is very good, all it takes is a crash, and he has a love affair with the pavement.
Landa is doing the vuelta, was said in the beginning of the year, Landa and remco tour with remco as the leader and landa vuelta where he is leader
When they got onto the final climb and the break was messing around with a 3 min gap, I was so confused. Did none of those guys watch Pogi break the space time continuum yesterday when he closed down a 4 min gap like he was racing amateurs. I don’t know if would have mattered but Carapaz and Mas needed to ride all out from the base of the climb if they wanted a chance at winning.
Being at the tour seing the stages live on the mountains, having your recaps are amazing for actually knowing whats going on! ❤❤❤
Just wanted to say thankyou for all the great quality and quickly delivered video's. Awesome free content.
What were Mas and Carapaz thinking? If they had kept working together Pogacar would have done next to nothing to prevent them from taking the stage.....
😂😂😂
If Pog wants a win, Carapaz and Mas can do absolutely nothing about it.
There is only one rider on this planet who can keep up with Pog and it is neither Carapaz nor Mas.
@@tonyg3091 Pogi already said this stage was for a breakaway rider as far as he was concerned......that was till Jonas was about to take the stage....then Pogi decided he couldn't
let that happen......something about revenge/settling scores😀😀
Movistar and EF shoud have done some policing in the peloton at the bottom of the climb. But they seemed to be non-existent at that point already
Pog wasn't going to drill his team all day to take the stage, but he also wasn't about to NOT go for it when Quickstep decided to bring the gap down to a minute for him. Once they committed to pacing, the winner was a forgone conclusion
@@LukeSchoppert When I saw Landa picking up the pace I instantly knew the fifth was coming. 😂
Mr Rouge, nice dispatches and stage summaries! Thank you very much!!!!
I was secretly hoping for some fireworks from Remco today. He tried, though, big respect! 🧨
I think they should create a kit for Carapaz with red jaguar dots. El Jaguar de Tulcan!
Carapaz the goat this tour in the mountains.
One of the running spectators got pulled back by another spectator and the passenger on the motorbike pushed another spectator to the side of the road. I can't remember exactly where but near the top.
5:59
I remember seeing the one guy running get pulled back by another spectator! Not all heroes wear capes.
Thanks
@@laurenjaffe5493 and those who wear capes made of flags are usually anti-heroes
do you remember Contador
Thanks for mentioning the bottle moment - saw it go down but commentators completely missed it. Those are the things that make the tour 👌
If anything, Remco and Jonas gifted the stage to Tadej.
And what a battle - next year will be interesting.
Best moment was the MC shoving a runner off the tarmac at 5:58
gifted it to tadej? tadej was chilling behind jonas and couldve taken a minute again if he really wanted to...
Jonas and Remco dont care about the stage as they do for their GC position. Jonas and Remco both want 2nd. Remco wants 2nd to show people he became 2nd on his first TDF. Jonas wants 2nd to prove he can still compete with Pogi. If Pogi can tag along without having to work and win a stage why not?
@@franz009franz Most armchair pundits are idiots. Pogacar's instincts are to overwork. He's learned to govern his energy better than ever and it shows. But these guys think that their heroes are nothing but virtuous and their rivals are drug-addled frauds relying on the generosity of the Social Justice Heroes (on wheels in this case).
Imagine if Remco shows an even better form next year. He would be a legit contender. Not to mention if he's given a better team.
I don't think "gifted" means what you think it means.
They weren’t playing, they took Pog up on his promise he wont attack the breakaway. And he kept it. He did not attack, he just followed Jonas. Too bad for the breakaway was Jonas is good enough to demolish them on his own with Pog doing absolutely nothing.
Pog is world’s #1 wheelsucker
@camillelively 😂😂😂😂😂 have you watched any of the Monuments?? Solo win from 83km out?? Wheelsucker?? You must be smoking your socks..
It's actually Soudel who started it all.. doubt that Jonas would have attacked Remco.. he knows that would just drag Pogi along, who will take more time on himself..
@camillelively , you won todays most idiotic comment today, congratulations 🙂
@@camillelively 😂😂😂
Let me explain what you witnessed today-you saw someone who did his best, was trying really REALLY hard not to unleash his full power and humiliate AGAIN his main rival.Pog was riding at about 80%, even less, he just did not want to intervene in any form in the battle for 2nd. If he rode at 100% he would have put any number of minutes on Jonas, up to about 5-6
Almeida was so good this tour, let him have a crack at the Vuelta. Ayuso won’t be at UAE next season, in my opinion.
Totally agree
La Vuelta climbs are steeper and shorter than the Tour's. They are not ideal for João Almeida's. I think he prefers the longer climbs with a regular gradient. Of the 3 Grand Tour, i think La Vuelta is the hardest for him. Chapeau on this Tour. First place among the Terrans, just behind the aliens 😂
Can someone tell me why Ayuso is so hated. Has he done anything wrong?
@@ThomasOlesentopG He didn't want to work to Pogi and made sure to catch Covid to drop of the tour and start preparing the Vuelta
Rumours say he is in Movistar next year
@@ThomasOlesentopG I was mostly alluding to Gianetti’s comments the other day. They were pretty harsh haha
5:52 that Carapaz bike color is sweet!!
I hope Jonas stays injury free next year and has amazing prep for tdf 25. Hope he takes his crown back next year!
Nice shove by the motorbike pillion on the running spectator :)
Great Tour, great commentary. Chapeau to all the riders and LRCP
I was rooting for Carapaz so hard. Especially when he caught the wheels of the 2 leaders.
Respect
Thanks very much for the coverage. Saves me trying to stay awake every night. Regards Will..
Watching The Pog dominate the best riders on the planet, I'm hearing Frank Sinatra sing "My Way". 🎶😁
This was a truly extraordinary Stage. 👏🥰 Thanks for another great review, LR. 👍
M 🦘🏏😎
Mas paced Roglic in the Vuelta to take the win off Carapaz. Probably still some bag blood there lol
5:56 they just shoved him out of the way 😂
Love the bottle hand ups. Side of the wrong, rider can take it instantly from a standing handup. From the car takes 5 seconds.
"tartic Pikachu" LMAO auto-captions be wildin'
Tadej and Jonas talked together close to the finish. But what did they say? I guess it would be something like this: Tadej :" Second on Stage pays for Beers at Nightclub tomorrow" - Jonas:" All right, just like last Year".
When Carapaz and Mas were leading, there was some on-camera talk between them that didn’t look too friendly. My Spanish language lip reading skills are weak, but one of them must have turned down an offer to cooperate..leading to the self destructive hostilities. They were both attacking each other from that point on.
There's so much bad blood there between Richie and Movistar. When it was clear Mas caught up to Richie I just knew it was never going to work 😅
렘코랑 요나스 사이에 얼마나 큰 갭이 있는지 보여주는 스테이지. 생각외로 너무 흥미진진하고 즐거운 스테이지였음. 랜턴루즈에게도 감사.
Pogacar just doing a casual sprint after a zone 1 ride 😂
Really impressive work from Landa. Wow.
Remco has balls to try. But no legs. Jonas still show he is better, and puts more buffer into the TT. He has no choice but to pull Pog up, though he knows he will be eaten at the top. He just wants to cling on to 2nd. But fantastic show by Anchovy. 👏👏
Carapaz is the biggest LinkeBal in the peloton. Trying to lock up another Oscar for Best Foreign Film. The PolkaDot Panther got another big, big prize with the King Of The Mountain Jersey. Totally deserved by the way.
so happy to see him take the jersey yesterday then cement it today. was also thankful pog was no longer eligible for the white. we'll actually have the four jerseys on different riders in Nice for once, rather than polka getting swallowed up as a result of gc battle and in prior years white too due to their neo-pro status.
Seeing Carapaz in the dots is fantastic. Ben Healy deserves most combative rider. Would love to see teams go out to specifically target the Mountains Jersey like they do green
Great coverage as usual, anyone else want to see Pog go for the Triple Gt in a season, would he be able to? i think so, would be a fascinating watch.
Being in top shape over such a long time normally does not work. the body needs to recover from races and hard training.
Doing one more GT would probably massively increase the chances of getting an injury and / or serious infection because the bodys immune system is weak when you are in top shape.
He could destroy next year when he does not recover after the Olympics.
The team management said no way... they don't want him to burn himself out
@@LadyBird-n2t Has that actually happened? finish season and winter off no?
@@onepunchbud1472 I personally dont think he should, but equally think he could, but yea, physically and mentally he woould be at risk from something, but if anyone could do it he could, did someone not ride 21 Gt's in a row recently, fairly sure that happened and from a less physically gifted rider than POg
Another grand tour with a guy crushing his opponents by minutes and winning every major stage? Would it be so fascinating?
Tadej's the man!
Shoutout to the motorcycle guy who pushed the guy at 5:59 😂
5:58 Is a metaphor for Tadej coming through the 2024 season.
Jonas must really appreciate those congrats from Gianetti 🤣
You know what, I actually think he does. Why wouldn't he? I didn't read anything other than respect into it. Would you rather Gianetti flipped him off? 😂
1:57 what was that about i am getting the feeling jorgenson is a sore loser
why gift points, same as why would pog gift stage
@@viktormundt6500 sure lets compare a tdf stage with a 1 point on kom jersey
Payback for Carapaz skipping a lot of turns yesterday to take the KOM points.
@@martinhh763maybe Carapaz should just have worked a little harder yesterday in return for all those free points 😂
@@martinhh763it’s a matter of principles. You don’t give something if someone doesn’t deserves it.
Pog said they would let the breakaway today but UAE controlled it anyway at 4'30'' knowing that Soudal would probably accelerate in the second half of the stage. So Pog can win but still not look greedy. Clever.😙
Evenepoel - 3rd place. Not bad for first TDF. Wow Pogi - 3 TDF wins and 2 second place already.
Jonas will dominates next year with Roglic
All blue jerseys is so real needs changed my wife just got into cycling and doesn’t know which team is which
Carapaz looking good in that kit!
Jorgenson is looking really impressive. I don't think he will ever be a contender for the Tour, but clearly he is a rider who can win shorter stage races as well as classics.
I still can’t believe Jonas had a collapsed lung in April.
Both lungs punctured, broken collarbone, broken ribs on the entire right side, broken fingers... It's surreal he's here, a testament to the grit and tenacity of pro cyclists
I suspect Jorgenson will come to regret that rather petulant sprint to take the mountain point off Carapaz. It is not just Carapaz who will take revenge, but UAE (at least) as well
UAE is so dominating this year. They always seem to decide who is going to win today.
@@0xdeadbeef444 people complained of the same thing with Visma in 2022 when they were the strongest. That's just how the pendulum swings and how teams push each other to get better which benefits us as viewers
"Nailed-on bread"
Well the breakaway wanted to win the etappe 😂😂😂
Carapaz and Healy were easily the most entertaining duo in this Tour de France.
It‘s insane they didn‘t nominate him for the Olympics…
That move by Jorgenson on the KOM point to take one point away from Carapaz was just pathetic.
He probably was attacking?!
He was annoyed by the way Carapaz rode yesterday when in the break. He was skipping a lot of turns.
It was hilarious 😂 he got a shit ton of points uncontested yesterday
Jorgenson is the biggest baby in the peloton. Did all that just to do nothing.
Typical Visma move. His self-pity and entitlement in yesterday's interview was embarrassing.
People will say Pog is being greedy taking stage wins (that are handed to him on a silver platter) but nobody bats an eye to Jorgenson sprinting Carapaz for KOM points?
5:59 that spectator just got shitmixed by the motorbike. Amazing.
Respect for Ricky Carapaz. Movistar a joke as always
1 of the best m8
Ahh the MC shoving the idiot running behind the riders, best part.
Pogacar is making point by constantly smashing vinni
If Pogi decide to take stage win, It would be better if He do some work or attack early! He sitting behind Jonas for last 4.7km get benefit and spring on last 200m.
That's just great tactical work 'cause Jonas was trying to cement 2nd place.
It is his right to sit on, it's Jonas who benefits from gapping Remco, Pogi doesn't care about that
If you are in yellow you do not have to do anything just sit behind the guy who is 2nd. How long are you watching TdF?
Was that 4 in a row?
I think the balls discussion is finally settled today
@@KevwePatani the only upside to the Tour being over is we can finally stop hearing about everyone's balls in the peloton 😂
Wow
Years to come pogi vs jv vs remco, what a lovely years to come 🎉🎉🎉
Kinda felt that was dirty by pog. Sit and do no work until 100m till the line
Jonas is getting served his own medicine... not working at the start of the tour and playing long tactics, its a bit funny to see him flicking elbows now asking for helkp to distance remco while not willing to assist at all in the first two weeks. Pogacar now in yelloww has absolutly nothing to work for, he cound have distanced jonas but then we would read greedy doped comments again, and he is the favorite for TT tommorow. Why would he pull Jonas while he needs seconds on remco and he can just worry for the stage win..
Pog reminds me of the Cobra circa 2008...
Biniam girmay is 1st in points he's number 1 cyclist
Unsportsmanlike of Jorgenson...
Greedy Carapaz. And he never runs in the front.
There are common rules between players.
He always tries to take his own advantages only.
Buitrago is the same.
Pogacar is awesome! 👍🚴🤸
Disgraceful Vingegaard forced Pogacar to win the stage 🤣😉
Unfortunately Remco's big balls made the breakaway lose today
Condolences- hope your head heels soon x
Jonas looking for a pull from Tadej (twice!) within 30 seconds of his counterattack was pretty odd.
I just think he was trying to feel out what his intentions were, if he would sit on or maybe even counter attack. To me it also looked like he was looking back to see Remco and how much he was dropping
Pog very suspect
Pogacer just looks like he's playing wuth the rest of the field now. It's ridiculous.
I didn't want to be that guy. But Tadej's final sprint, cold celebration and overall ease - are concerning.
It would have worked if Vinegaad hadn't kicked it up. But he wanted to be way ahead of Remco going into the TT.
absolute stupid racing from Carapaz - he wasted so much energy in those numerous attacks which gained him nothing! He should have worked together with Mas to the very finish... and the tactics of team Visma... last year they made almost no mistakes and this year🙈 Of course they couldn't win, Pogacar was too strong - but nonetheless!
Richie can't work with anyone from Movistar, too much bad blood - even if it was in his own best interest
I'd say this was the dirtiest TDF since the 90s, but Wout was dominating climbs in 2020.
2020 was still MUCH slower with MUCH lower watt numbers
they must have found a new juice this year
Soler is just so... rubbish
I don't know if Pogacar is clean but clearly the way he destroys even the second best rider easily every time is not particularly smart in terms of PR.
Just stop, he is allowed to prove he is the best and Vingegaard clearly lacks some muscle mass which caused him a drop in performance the last few days. It was not okay when people were screaming doping at Jonas last year; and it isn't okay to Pogi this year either
Well, that's no different from Vingegaard hammering 7 minutes on Pogacar in two stages last year. To which the Visma team CEO had to take a shot at the french teams to divert the attention.
I'm not taking about right or wrong. I'm just making a case on the PR strategy. No matter what the truth is it's not the smartest thing to do. If he's clean, by going for all those individual stages so dominantly is only gonna raise suspicion among a part of the public and if he's not clean, then he should probably try the lower profile to keep his yellow jersey and not make people want to prove he's not clean.
@@julienr.6254 Its Sport not PR for fuck sake.... this cycling fans are getting absurd... who is whining about Formula domination, Bolt domination, Madrid domination.... stop for fucks sake allready and go watch Red Cross give out food
Carapaz is a frustrating cyclist to watch.
Patrick always makes it seem like Carapaz does zero pulls and never works in the breaks (he’s no Kung but he’s no Valverde either)
It's not so much that he never ever cooperates but he has a tendency to want to go on the attack and go solo when the other situation is more beneficial to him. In the past we have also seen him go so hard he simply implodes 😅
@@mikkelline11 agree with that!
So why is no one explaining MJ Visma f@@cling with Carapaz for points?
Payback (from prior stage) is a bitch. But Carapaz gets the last laugh.
Because Carapaz is a selfish and exploitive rider.
Mateo inadvertently took the 1 point that still remained over that first KOM as he accelerated over that climb to join the breakaway ahead. If you follow the stage you'll see that he helped Carapaz bridge over to the breakaway where Carapaz would eventually score a total of 26 KOM pts over the next 3 summits and secure the polka dot jersey out of reach of Pogacar, 127 to 97.
@@paulevans6403Carapaz really screwed himself on Stage 20. If he worked with Mas, it could've been just the 2 of them competing for the stage win. Instead his selfishness beat out any tactical sense, and this allowed Jonas to catch them, with the Alien in tow.
cmon jorgensen, that wasn’t necessary…
Sure it was. Most clear and succinct way to say FU Richard after his lack of cooperation yesterday.
@@paulevans6403it was honestly hilarious, one of the best parts of today along with the Soler JV bottle incident 😂
“The Tour always considered itself bigger and stronger than doping. The power of the Tour was always about memories - the great riders, the great battles, the mountains, the suffering - and those memories served as a kind of washing machine.
“If ever there was a stain and the race was mildly tarnished, you stuck it in the machine with the ‘myth and memory powder’ and it came out nice and fresh. But the machine has reached the end of its cycle. The powder has run dry and the washing keeps coming out dirty.
Winning has no value any more.
How can you exploit a win that nobody believes in?” - Jean-Louis Le Touzet
You're kidding yourself if you don't think doping is rampant in EVERY major sport across the planet. You can chose to live in ignorance or accept this. It does not diminish the skill of these athletes as they are all juiced to the gills.
first!! Seriously, got here 5 secs after release with no views 😅
Congratz man! Legend
who the duck cares?
What with stealing the KOM point, snubbing Matt Stephens, and the vulgar cojones-comment that clearly embarrassed Jonas at the finish, it may be, just may be that Matteo is a bit of a mini-Lance? Cycling isn't dick swinging, that's why I like it.
I think you are reading way too much into a moment of irritation from Matteo 😂 Every time he has been interviewed I have only see him be very nice and agreeable. And taking that Kom was honestly hilarious
so when Remco says that Jonas has no balls, its fine, but Matteo cant say his team leader has big balls as a little banter payback? lmao okay buddy
One of the phrases I hear frequently associated with Jorgenson is "extremely likeable fellow". And that includes from Matt Stephens, who interviewed him for his podcast at the start of the year.
