Fans unimpressed as Jasper Philipsen accused of 'bullying' rival in bizarre Tour de France incident; 'When athletes keep it real': Pogačar's brutally honest f-bomb TV interview; Stage 18 updates; Pro nutrition tips from the peloton + more on the live blog

Tadej Pogačar fan club or live blog comments section? Your thoughts on Gen Z's face of cyclingscrapes into millennial age ranges, so no issues there.Anyway, we suggested the fresh-faced white jersey had managed to win more fans in defeat on yesterday's stage, something backed up by your comments.

"He's all the more admirable for that. He had a bad day, but he's still there, battling on, and remains a phenomenal athlete. Armstrong was also a great athlete, but an unpleasant person. I doubt if it will become necessary to say that about either Pogacar or Vingegaard, or most of the riders in this great race.

"These are a couple of the greatest champions of all. Pogacar, as said below, has earned even greater respect from me — not that he needs it. For some reason unknown to me, I was vaguely supporting Vingegaard but I was never not supporting Pogacar. He's a genuine, endearing character."Not everyone's all aboard the fan club, however,asking what people like about the two-time Tour champion, saying he finds him"immature and irritating"...

"I also hope that this also means we stop seeing all the tedious speculation of him being 'the next Merckx'. Because it's bollocks. I also think lots of people may have had an inaccurate or slightly skewed perception of Marc Soler, which perhaps might have been adjusted a little after yesterday."
