Well then, I didn’t expect Pogačar to do that! He might have been bored, but I remember in previous editions riders saying that they actually lose shape throughout the race, as it’s so easy. Maybe, and this is a big maybe, Pogačar wanted to get more of an effort into his legs. One thing is for sure, a lot of the peloton weren’t happy. You might think this is just grumpy old men, but I would urge caution, a cycling season is very long and it’s not wise to piss everyone off in February. Okay, lecture over, time for another sprint stage.
