This guy is practically unstoppable. Targets one or maybe two races all year, then wins it. It's impressive, but can he beat Tadej again this year?

I think maybe so. Pog coming off wrist injury, and had modified training for classics. To be honest though I haven't looked at the route enough to have any idea who it favors

There's minimal TT Kms so not sure how that affects it. Pogi will potentially have Yates as a double threat which could work really well in his favour. Vingegaard doesn't have that so can potentially be isolated by those two on some of the mountain stages.

It's going to be an interesting one for sure. Kind of like last year where Rogliç and Vingegaard were working Pogi over, but with the roles reversed

Agree. I think it's pretty arrogant to think you can bring anything less than your best team (and madness to think your best team doesn't include rog) and beat Tadej. Maybe Jonas is that good though, excited to find out.
