      Can I watch World tour £6.99/month??? TNT if the answer is no then , There is no way Vingegaard beat Pogi anytime Soon. By the way TNT am going to tell family and friends that you lot took away my subscription by increasing subscription fee from £6 to £30 ! I don't need your champion league I don't need all the extra!! It's just not fair to increase the price without consideration 👎👎👎

      Both of them at their best, I think Tadej wins. Ofc there’s other things that come into play like team form (take Politt and WVA as an example from last year), other contenders like Remco, Tadej’s classics season, Jonas’ prep and all of these can influence the outcome. At the end of the day, if both come into the Tour in the shape of their lives with the team at max strength, Tadej takes the win.

      Price gouging by WB & TNT, shocking price increase. You aren’t offering anything better to justify such a price increase. Cyclists (well me certainly) don’t want to watch any other sport.

      Pogacar can only be beaten at the Tour de France by a crash, an illness… or Vingegaard. Last year, after suffering horrible injuries as a result of his crash at the Basque Country just 3 months before the Tour, he still produced some of the best numbers of his career. It's scary to think what Jonas could have done if he had a perfect preparation without adversities.

    14. @ThisIsANameBruh on

      2 facts. 1) Pogacar ALWAYS has ONE bad day in the Tour. If Vingegaard is at top form that will be bad for Pog.

      2) They now go so fast up climbs that draft really matters. Vingegaard is at a disadvantage here because he weighs less, therefore needs more w/kg plus Pog has a massive kick at the end.

    16. @TheNyxmaster on

      Nobody has noticed, but in 2024 Tadej Pogacar was climbing like never before: his strength is no longer mainly in his explosive attacks: now he gives a crazy steady tempo and he supports the heat like never before. These were his only two weaknesses( when he doesn't forget to eat like on stage 11)… Bro is 26 years old. So, there is statically a higher probability that in 2025 he has improved in all areas compared to 2024. It's likely that we see this year an even scarier monster than last year.

      Please why are these experts putting Tadejs injury in 23' in the same context as jonas' in 24. Tadej could train right through it except for a couple of days. He was absolutely in shape in 23

    19. @ayoelang on

      Im from Denmark, and always vouch for Jonas. If Tadej is as good form as he was last year, Jonas stand no chance winning TDF, sadly. I know he had a horrible crash last year, but even if he did not crash, i still think he would not win the TDF 24. Tadej is in his own league.

    22. @J-cz7yv on

      Stop glazing Jonas. Nathan is still stuck in domestique mode. Yes he crashed. He was not going to die. Sorry that is the truth. Did he think he may die, sure he might have thought that for a moment but to keep going back and back to that… move on

    26. @tampafoxx on

      ultimate respect to both jonas and pogacar, but the level tadej reached last year, if he's at the same or better, jonas and visma will lose the tour. and it's not just physical, pogacar is in a different mind-space than years past.

    28. @larkiess on

      people forget how much of a freak vingegaard is. The only person to break Tadej, and he did it multiple times. Plus in the TDF 2024 he was still head and shoulders above everyone not named Tadej Pogacar, despite the terrible crash a couple months before. He is coming now with a chip on his shoulder and (hopefully) an injury-free training season.

    29. @LadyBird-n2t on

      Cycling is not just the TDF.. Mercx did not just win the TDF.. why does ANYONE think Jonas is the best cylist in the world?? He does not come anywhere near Pogacar..

    31. @lloydjarm on

      its is so ironic that a common complaint about pogacar is he whats to win all the time, but hardly anyone recognizes that halfhearted sprint against vingegaard in the tdf. he did his best and succeeded in making it look almost real. If you want to see it, that is.

    32. @tonilauge5786 on

      If Visma-Rabobank is at the best level.
      Wout van Aert has to wake up!
      And ride for Vingegaard. And Sep Kuss
      Will never/ ever win Vuelta again
      Jorgenson matures to be now.
      Vingegaard has improved and look
      Strong. We are back to 23, Missing
      Out nutrisance will be crucial.
      Podacar always have one bad day
      In a 3 week race, in 23 stomach could
      Not absorm more energey, Podacar
      Did n't forget.
      So it's max pressure from start of
      Tour de France. 50.5%Vingegaard
      49.5% Podacar al 🇩🇰😜🔝❤️

    33. @tonyhernandez3505 on

      Jonas has already beat Tadej twice. Last year Jonas was coming back from a near career ending crash and still managed to finish 2nd. As long as both are healthy and in good form, we are gonna witness an epic TdF this year.

    34. @JackMott on

      It makes me sad that people can no longer mention statistics without the "haha but stats are lies". ugh. no, just don't lie with them and quit saying that.

    37. @nowthen3731 on

      can't stand that Adam Blythe character…. waffle a lot of bs & also not forking all that money to watch what Orla wearing as well as the racing!!

    38. @Velo_sina on

      I think the more pertinent question is : ‘ Can TNT make cycling affordable again ?’
      Or all this becomes irrelevant as viewers drop & companies pull out of sponsorship and cycling dies a slow and painful death – thanks TNT | Warner Bros

    42. @mrloop1530 on

      We are so lucky to still have him with us after that horrific crash in the Basque Country. To come back three months later and finish 2nd in the TdF pretty much beggars belief.

    46. @Steve-Riverwood on

      That Vingegaard got second place with THAT preperation last year, is inhuman! If Vingegaard is fresh, well prepared and on his normal GT-level, nobody can follow him, not even the great Pogacar!

    47. @yas96225 on

      It’s interesting how Jonas is getting disrespected by most people. “Can he beat him?”. Really? He already beat him twice and it was bloody. If one of them has a less-than-100% day when it matters, it can be all over.
