Will Tadej Pogacar, as in 2024, crushing the competition this season? This is the question that everyone asked after their past year extraordinary and their shattering beginnings in 2025. Indeed, the triple winner of the Tour de France won without trembling the UAE Tour by winning two stages last week. What already make an impression.
For his part, his great rival Jonas Vingegaard started his season by pocketing the Tour of Algarve. The fact remains that the Danish did not display the same superiority as the Slovenian world champion. For Cyrille Guimard, “Pogi” is simply already a tone above the Danish.
“We're not going to cut her leg to Pugacar”
“” The most impressive, if we talk about the two (Pogacar and Vingegaard), there is no photo, there is Pogacar and the others, including Vingegaard who, of course, has established himself but he also has a status which allows him to win in this type of race which was not the most difficult tests at his level. Pogacar was imperial. In fact, he sets out on the same bases as last year. Hopefully for his opponents that not because there will be Pogacar and the rest but we are not going to cut her leg to Pogacar. It is true that on the last step, in the last ascent, he walked his bike but I think it may be necessary to get used to it. Vingegaard seems less impactful to me than last year. He may have a move to morale too when he sees the other “Said the” druid “to
Cyclism'Actu.
And to add: ” Nothing is worrying. We don't have the power to modify it or it would be disgusting. The race still lives. There is always a time when things will happen. Remember last year when we talked about the Tour de France and I said that we did not know who would be at the start. And then there was this serious fall where there was Evenepoel and Vingegaard who were seriously injured. They were not the only ones who modified the whole start of the season and we could even even the normal course of the Tour. I still find that Vingegaard is a little less impactful but we will see how things will evolve. »»
