That may be one of the greatest TTs ever ridden. Up there with Lemond.

if you're Roglic... how do you get over this disappointment?

ETA: I mean... he essentially dominated the whole of the TdF... and 1 time trial did him in

that stat is true that the yellow jersey has changed hands every time the TdF has gone through that mountain
PA announcer at the finish just confirmed it and said it's cursed

so does Rog wear any jersey? I doubt it.

Pog may win three jerseys

Jumbo had the #2, #4, and #5 finishers in the stage; Roglic finished 5th and still lost 2 minutes to Pog, absolutely brilliant TT.

That was all Pog TTing. Rog was still top 5 on the stage.

This somewhat explains Pog's tactics on 17.
Dude must have been really confident about today

The last time someone has ridden a TT like that was Lance on Alpe D'Huez

Pog started the day wearing the white jersey as best young rider

at the end of the day he adds yellow & polka dots to that collection

might as well just find this and give it to Pog

Pog is the youngest TDF winner since 1904 ... that TT ride was un-Fukn-believable.

Holy hell.
Tadej won that more than Roglic lost it, right? He was insane.

Anybody know what Tadej's odds were to win the TdF before the race started?

yeah... considering Roglic finished like 5th in the stage... that should've been enough to hold yellow

except Pog just went ham

so tomorrow Pog will obviously wear yellow onto the Champs

polka dots will be worn by Richard Carapaz (2nd in KoM behind Pog)

white will be worn by Enric Mas (2nd in young rider behind Pog)
