I'm glad I'm not the only one who remembers that. I always point to that day as perhaps the day that Tadej decided to up his game (whatever that means).
That result was simply otherwordly. Here you have Pogacar besting the best in the world by over a minute....and JV beat him by 1:38! Things like this just do not happen naturally.
Nonetheless, I've enjoyed following the TdF this year. Nice to see Matteo do so well and it will be interesting to see if he bolts to be the lead rider elsewhere.
Exactly!
