    Bravo! I wouldnโ€™t be surprised if he decides to go for the vuelta as well. Heโ€™d certainly be mentally up for it as a racer thru and thru and by the look of the way he finished the tour, could also be physically ready. If anyone could do it, it would be him

    @robert kelly: Alot of people have said it can never be done but I agree with that Pogacar could do it. Didnโ€™t Froome challenge Contador to do all three a good few years back but think team orders made them see sense.

    @Kevin Dillon: ah Iโ€™m no expert Iโ€™ve only started watching consistently over the last few years. My bro is a big cycling fan and got me into it and I love it now its a great watch. Logically and most likely itโ€™s the worlds for him. Donโ€™t know if it would even be possible to bring a team to the vuelta? Heโ€™s relatively fresh but the rest of the support riders are pretty much spent but Iโ€™m sure heโ€™ll be thinking about it because it would also tick off the vuelta and triple crown and heโ€™d be the first to do it which would be a dangling carrot.

    Literally out of this world. he didnโ€™t just win the Giro and TdF he obliterated the competition and therein lies the problem.
    Vindegaard won a time trial last year by over a minute and was immediately dogged by doping questions. Pog does the same today but also has several other fantastical results in this yearโ€™s Tour and not a peep.
    This with the Giro in his legs.
    He also won a couple of Monuments this year which for a man of his size is highly unusual.
    Sad to say but itโ€™s not credible
