They all watched the Paris-Nice!!Weird that such a large group came in behind Chaves. No one even tried to steal seconds.
They have accepted the Yatesy ascension. Resistance is futile.Weird that such a large group came in behind Chaves. No one even tried to steal seconds.

Imagine putting your team to work the hole day and not even trying to win the stage smh.
Yeah I'm sarcastic.Gotta get back to work, but I really do think that was a well-deserved win and Ineos played it right.
Assume a bit of sarcasm here?
I defended Roglic in PN -- but this seemed to be a slightly different situation, if Ineos did indeed let off the gas, in which you had a former top flight rider whom everybody respected and fought back from oblivion, basically. Can't put my finger on it exactly why I'm OK with this, tho, and if someone sincerely believed that Thomas or Yates or anyone else in the top group should have attacked Chaves if they could, I'm OK with that, too.
Yeah, his face once again looks like the old Chaves.Obviously this is just one race but I'm hopeful that he's back and this isn't just a blip. He really is noticeably smaller so maybe the loss of weight will make the difference.
