I never ever thought it was remotely even worth considering. But now? If its a easy Giro like last year (but win by one or 2 mins to save yourself rather than 10), he's shown he can back up the tour. So then he just has to hope for a kind route and weak field at the vuelta.

With your absurd knowledge, is it the worst or are there any others in the conversation? Might as well have had rest day today and a decent stage on Tuesday.

Good for you.

You can be a neutral and still wish for something that will make the race better (though nobody should be wishing for a flat).

You know it can be both right? This is not a binary situation.

Read a stat that if he finishes the tour he is close to 365 consecutive days in a stage race without a dnf the race. That's insane.

I beleive Hinault said something similar about Lemond.

You could also just swap the giro/vuelta.

Have you heard English people speaking spanish?

Looks practically downhill.

France has 30 X the population but just over 5 X the number of grand tour wins.

He did it once.

Doesn't his classics results look broadly similar?

Do you have any money on it?

It doesn't.
