Patrick Konrad came to my mind, but he won Austrian RR last year.

Sagan did a big mistake by changing Ulissi wheel to Matthews one on the climb, if he stick on Ulissi wheel, he would have won easily.

Do you have some livetiming please ?

He is scheduled for Tour de Slovaquie, which is quite surprising regarding the route is made mainly for sprinters. Maybe a good 4-day preparation for Italian races.

How could this just happened, RIP Bjorg :-(

Definitely saving energy for next couple of stages. I doubt Bora will try to control break in 17th stage because they need to look after Buchmann so i think he will try to win it from break. Col de la Sentinelle is not hard enough to drop rested Sagan in 3rd week of Grand Tour so he will fancy...

So we can add Enric Mas and Ion Izagirre. Buchmann proved that he is not a man for 3rd week in GTs. Also nice try by Tony Gallopin, good to know he is capable of doing good 3 weeks of racing.

The biggest problem is that TT comes after a rest day. And we all know that he is really bad after a rest days in GTs. If this changes tommorrow, he has a decent chance of getting closer to podium. Mountain stages in the last week are good for him and he should be peaking.

Sosa vs. everyone else. Pogačar, Hirschi, Vlasov, Almeida and Mcnulty are the ones who could be dangerous.

Somebody know if Jungels or Alaphilippe will race La Vuelta this year ?

Gotta love his accent :-D

Re: This is sign that he did really maximum he could do. Not many other riders can sacrifice themselves as Kwiato do.

What a beast Kwiato is.

I think tommorrow´s stage really suits him. Climbs are steep enough and not too long. Downhill is also good for him and his sprint is not that bad. But I am slightly worried about 12km+ long climbs. I think 11th and 12th stage will be too hard for him and he will lose time.
