Oh look, Evenepoel is winning. That means all the haters can once again come up with fake quotes to justify their hate for him. How dare he win from the break, such a coward! How dare he win KOM, useless award! He should just retire instead of offending forum members.
JV domestiques are not gonna gain time on Remco on this climb. He will probably have around 3min at the start of Angliru, could be doable, depending on how much energy he has left.
The break makes it 100% if they both take commited turns in the last kilometer. But it was very predictable that they would start looking at each other, these are cyclists we are taking about.
No JA really changes this race, he's always the one to blow it up on Poggio, and everyone is waiting for him. Pogacar will now probably attack earlier, but I think his best chance is a reduced sprint, no chance he drops everyone on Poggio.
