Cor Vos
When Jonathan Milan won the green points jersey at last year’s Tour de France, the rider who pushed him closest wasn’t another sprinter. It was Tadej Pogačar, who spent his month winning the whole bike race, its climber’s jersey, and, mostly by accident, slowly working his way up the points classification without ever contesting a bunch sprint.
The result seems to have kept ASO up at night, because since last summer it implemented two sizeable changes, and then recanted on one. The intention of both is to make it harder for a rider like Pogacar to wear green into Paris.
Did we do a good job with this story?
