·1 hr 1 min·5 clips

Pogacar admits Visma's relentless 'mosquito' attacks are infuriating him, exposing a critical psychological weakness.

The episode is a post-first-week analysis of the 2025 Tour de France hosted by Alexey Borysovsky with guest Inna Mushynskaya. It opens by questioning if Tadej Pogacar (UAE Team Emirates) has shown any weaknesses, noting his more calculated approach but acknowledging team issues with João Almeida's injury and Pavel Sivakov's illness. A major theme is Team Visma's strategy against Pogacar, using attacks from riders like Matteo Jorgensen to isolate and psychologically provoke him, which succeeded in making Pogacar waste energy on a futile attack. The hosts analyze the psychological warfare, with Visma's management taking media pressure off Jonas Vingegaard. They discuss Pogacar's inherent mentality as a 'classics' rider frustrated by conservative Grand Tour tactics. The conversation shifts to other contenders: Remco Evenepoel (Soudal-Quick-Step) is assessed as looking weaker than last year but still a podium contender, while Bora-Hansgrohe's strategy with Primož Roglič and Aleksandr Vlasov is described as mysterious. Felix Hall (Decathlon AG2R La Mondiale) is highlighted as a major threat in the high mountains. The fight for the green jersey is critiqued, with the route favoring all-rounders like Pogacar over pure sprinters such as Jonathan Milan. The hosts praise Mathieu van der Poel's performances and Simon Yates's tactical intelligence. They preview the second week's decisive Pyrenees stages, including the Col du Tourmalet and a mountain time trial, expecting clarity on the general classification. The episode ends with promotional mentions for their Telegram channels and fantasy cycling game.
