Seems to be a class act this chap.
Interesting statements were made by Tadej Pogacar at the press conference before the Tour de Flandes 2025, where he will seek revenge after his defeat in Milan-San Remo, although, in reality, according to his own words, he does not see it that way "Revenge for San Remo in De Ronde? I don't know why I should be upset or seek revenge when no one has done anything wrong to me. There is nothing to avenge," Pogacar stated, showing sportsmanship, respect, and the good relationship he has always demonstrated with Mathieu van der Poel.
In any case, he was understanding of the performance of the Visma-Lease a Bike team in that race "These are things that happen in races. Visma made a mistake, they got confident, there is nothing wrong with that. Neilson was very strong in the final sprint." He also empathized with Wout van Aert's situation "The team depends on Wout every time he participates in a race. He goes to win and finishing second after a situation of three against one is crap. But these are things that happen in races. He will recover, he will arrive at the next race without thinking about it and will give his best again. Whether he does well or not, it's not the end of the world, they are just bike races."
