He is targeting 6 stage wins. Today then friday and Saturday as well. He is too competitive to sit and defend his lead.

BuffsVintageBikes Posted July 17 Share UAE certainly won't be making too many friends if that's the case. The other teams also want a piece of the pie for their own sponsors. DieselnDust and TheoG 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is hell bent on taking Yellow, Green and Polkadot come Nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobynE Posted July 17 Share My observation is when Pogi sprints he drives the bike forward where others seem to have a lot of left-right motion. Looks like his power all goes into forward. Just an observation from someone who has never watched the tour before 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bub Marley Posted July 17 Share I doubt any stage will be given to a breakaway. It’s pretty clear that Pogi is a proper bike racer. He wants to win races and I’m pretty sure he wants to break Cav’s record. Wouldn’t surprise me if he goes for this one.

Not just any watch but a Richard Mille watch worth 330’000 Swiss Francs, apparently it’s sponsored and he is not allowed to sell it (it’s probably worth more than the prize money). At least it only weighs 33 grams. DieselnDust 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vetplant Posted July 17 Share Much more interesting start to the stage then yesterday. Seems far from settling down anytime soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieselnDust Posted July 17 Share Two more abandons…. taking a break now to prep for world champs ? Or more covid? Mvdp was saying he’s been pushing numbers he’s never seen before and on target for the Olympic road race. He’s reall heavily invested in that goal. I hope it works out as planned Vetplant 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vetplant Posted July 17 Share Fascinating stage. 100km done, 78km remaining and attacks are still flying. Pogacar is taking this one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
