    Classic Movistar...

    Poor Pog is trying to let them win but still they give it away...

    No doubt someone will suggest Pog should gift Jonas the stage.

    Pog could go anytime he wants is my guesses

    Jonas looking good again today, makes me wonder again if his lung injury is affected more at altitude.

    I think Pog might be about to gift it after all

    It isn’t. Pogacar sprints away.

    Not really his fault, he just followed. Quickstep killed the break whilst failing to deliver.

    Hope he attacks the TT too. Don’t waste your hot legs, got an all time tour stage wins target to chase

    Pog went off like he was on a motorbike there, crazy (not casting nasturtiums on him)

    Hardly pogs fault .....the blame is Jorgensen

    7” gap in 150m?!

    So did whole Visma team have beef with Cpaz? Vin could have sat up once ahead of Remco, instead he helped deliver Pog for the win.

    Early on in the stage Matt Stevens asked Pog in an interview if he felt guilty about being so good.

    I'm guessing the end interview is going to be more like:

    "So Tadej, what is best in life?"

    "To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of their women"

    Think he was just marking his territory on Remco plus he still had a chance to take the stage. Pog could have had another finish like on Stage 11

    The world champion TTer will be riding a TT tomorrow where he'll be trying to take minutes out of Vingegaard. Of course he's going to put some seconds in the bank today to increase his buffer
