Maybe it's gonna be a mtt instead of a mtf at least.
Oh dear, that would probably be the hardest MTT in modern history :eek: and I don't think that they'd design a route that would be able to balance that out (Prologue, a long ITT like last year, no MTF other than the MTT, a few hilly stages and a Davos-Davos stage or something like that after the long ITT or after the MTT as the final stage).
 
Usually the outline of the next year course is presented in the last weekend, but so far I haven't been able to find any news about the route apart from the start being in Zug and a stage finish in La Punt (probably over Albula again as long as it doesn't rain)

Edit: and a stage finish in Villars-sur-Ollon it seems. Seems like a bit too much with the Rettenbachferner once again.

We can't make any conclusions on whether Superman will be better or worse than Quintana when we have absolutely no idea of his ceiling

Agree with this, he hasn't been tested yet which looking at Astana's potential roster next season I can see Lopez getting more of a leadership role so we will see what he's got to offer
