A Vingegaard from another planet flies the time trial and makes a big move to prove the Tour again against an earthly Pogacar

As they count Tadej Pogacar the Slovenian runner was catching his breath and was behind him Jonas Vongegaard he strapped himself to the bike, recreating the position he would be in for most of the 22.4 kilometer time trial that awaited him. The Slovenian exited and three minutes later the leader exited, as the public gathered Passy chanted his name: “Vingegaard, Vingegaard.” And the Dane went out at full speed, like a motorcycle in search of consolidating his privileged position at the head of the general classification, a goal he would achieve by showing great efficiency to his great rival. At the front, Pogacar tried to improve and reach cruising speed.

Before the start of the preliminary time trial, a difficult test of 22.4 kilometers, with a climb of two levelsCascade de Cour, not marking, and the Domancy Coast (2 km at 9.4% average slope, with a maximum ramp of 11%) the stakes were split between Slovenian and Danish. The numbers indicated that, surprisingly, in the last Tour, in two weather trials in one, Pogacar was better, the short, and the long. vingegaardbut the difference in both cases from one to the other is eight seconds.

Nothing to do with the ‘beating’ Vingegaard gave Pogacar this Tuesday in a CRI that will live on in the memory. At the first time taken (km 7) Vingegaard led Pogacar by 16 seconds, leaving 31″ at km 16. At the beginning of the tough climb to the second level of the category pogacar changed bikes, he lost about 15 seconds in the operation, and vingegaard he remained the ‘goat’ of the test of time. You will think about the demanding ramps Tadej he can get his legs out more and be powerful on a lighter bike. It’s a mirage. Pedaling one and the other has nothing to do with it. Vingegaard’s was more fun and he got more sympathy, while Pogacar was more stuck and seemed to struggle to move forward. Vingegaard is faster and climbs walls.

Pogacar is even worse, he and his team must study what happened. At the beginning of the time trial, they encourage Vingegaard by telling him to show who is the strongest.
