'You have to be positive, otherwise we wouldn't start' - Visma-Lease a Bike realistic but not giving up after Tour de France time losses
Briefly

Visma-Lease a Bike maintains a positive outlook despite Jonas Vingegaard losing time to Tadej Pogačar. The team acknowledges the significant challenge posed by Pogačar but focuses on maintaining morale and belief as they face eight remaining stages. Even though Vingegaard is over four minutes behind, the team recognizes the unpredictable nature of bike racing. Key moments are still to come, and they emphasize controlling what they can. The team remains realistic while preserving a fighting spirit, knowing anything can happen in the remaining stages.
You have to be positive, otherwise we wouldn't even start the Tour after the Dauphiné, you know? You can never be surprised anymore about Pogačar's dominant ride on stage 12.
It's definitely a big deficit, and on paper you could say it's over, but it's bike racing, anything can happen. I mean, we saw Pogačar, he crashed there on the stage after the rest day.
