Tangentially, Gregoire had an underratedly great year. 6 wins all against legit competition even in the .Pro majority, made some elite selections in the punchy TdF stages, top 10s in 2/3 Ardennes (& top 10 selection after Redoute before LBL regrouped). Plus top tier navigational skills.
Romain Gregoire has the most www.procyclingstats.com/statistics/r...
And credit to the DNF podcast for inspiration to look this up lol

Which rider is the longest without a DNF?
Romain Grégoire has done 188 days of racing since his last DNF (Did Not Finish). He is followed by Wilco Kelderman (178) and Mike Teunissen (177).

Primož Roglič's DNF rate is actually not that high compared to other top GC riders apart from phenoms Pog and Vingegaard:
Roglič 5/17 (29%)
Evenepoel 3/6 (50%)
Almeida 3/10 (30%)
Mas 3/14 (21%)
Lipowitz 1/3 (33%)
Landa 4/22 (18%)
*some numbers could be slightly off

One of the better analysis articles on Domestique.
A comment in general though: it was pretty clear in 2020-21 that Ineos would not dominate the Tour in the near future. Pog and Roglič were just the best climbers of the era, Bernal never pushed their 2019-21 w/kg.

Last 5 years where *arguably* the best climber didn't win a GT:
- 2025 Giro: best two climbers crashed out + funny uae tactics
- 2023 Vuelta: team politics
- (2023 Giro: MTT is also climbing)
End of list.

Im Fall #Lazkano werden vermutl. noch einige Sachen aufgearbeitet werden.
- Hat RBH vor Verpflichtung alle Möglichkeiten ausgeschöpft, ihn zu ‚durchleuchten‘?
- Welche Rolle bei Verpflichtung spielt RBH DS Patxi Vila, der vorher ‚Head of Performance‘ bei Movistar war, als Lazkano dort fuhr?

I'd love to see Pogi and MvdP battle in the mud. Throw in Pidders and Wout, and that would be such an epic race to behold.

Went out with my 3 high school mates and one of them brought with them their 18 and 20 year old cousin.
Outlasted them both in partying endurance. Felt like a big unc still got it moment.
(Not sure if thats something to be proud of though)
