Excellent video ❤
Unfortunately one too many crash.
What's monoscluosis 😂😂
Great review of his career…… the BEST french rider of a generation!!!! Crashes aside I think he was on the wrong team to exploit his talents to their full potential 🤔 AND the last year or 2 he has had to make way Remco 🙄 so is he going to a new team in 2024??
Is it possible he’s got that freaking long COVID? Peter Sagan got COVID 3xs and was no longer competitive after 2020.
One word: Strade Bianche
He had a child, it takes away from training,.
Really hoping he has a good 2024 season and we get some more of his panache back into this sport that has become dull and a numbers game of late…thanks for the video retrospective of his career.
Discount Kwiatkowski.
Laurent Brochard in 1997!
Great rider, got me back into road cycling with his 2019 Tour and been a fan ever since but the crashes and perhaps age have taken their toll. Would be great to see him get some more big wins next year though
Julian has always been and I feel for a couple more years will still be exciting to watch in single day and short tours. His injuries have been his undoing recently.
No ones going to talk about the correlation between the goatee and his improved results?
Problem is, that team does not believe in him.
Great review and thank you for the upload CD…Well appreciated my man. I'm reading some of these comments about how age and crashes caught up with Julian and I'm blown away..One has to remember the man is a RECENT back2 back World Champion hes only 31years old.
You left out how he got screwed by Mother Nature @ the 2019 TDF..if that had not happened he would of won the tour
He needs a new enviroment without Patrick Lefevre..
What happened to Loulou? He was on a contract with Quickstep is what happened 😓
Breaks my heart to see him as a makeshift super domestique for Remco.
I wish he would go to FDJ or somewhere else where they'd appreciate him. Such a likable rider.
The thing about Quickstep is that they are such a confused team. With too many big names.
Do they want to be a classics team, a grandtour team, or a sprinter train?!
I totally understand how it can be hard to make a descision when you have a variation of world class riders in your roster.
Merlier and Fabio for the sprints, and then top names like Remco, Loulou, Asgreen, Cavagna. But ultimately it's like too many chefs in the kitchen.
Interesting video, crap and disrespectful title (the WTF part).
Fun fact: Julian Alaphilippe is married to Marion Rousse, who is a former french road champion herself and the race director of the TDFF.
Great vid
howewer, Jalabert never won the world road race. Laurent Brochard was before Julian the last French rider who won WRR, in 1997. Jaja finished second in 1992 and he also won ITT world race in 1997 !
He was my impressive. Would like to see him back In top form
2019 tout the best tour in history for france.
Gye had a few ups and downs in his private life, then he became a dad so maybe that's why his victories are less
