Someone on DD must have told the others he has diamond legs today, otherwise they would not be riding like that.
Fingers crossed it's Valgren

the UCI Nation Ranking is a "running classification" over one year. So (as I said) I have manually removed the points from 2018, as they will not count in the end anywayYour points don't match the UCI nations ranking - is it a different ranking, and what is the source?

Can never understand why they don't make valverde work, he's wheelsucked all the way. Well done.
I think the strongest are Rogla, Woods and Valverde, but I would never underestimate the old fox Vincenzo! These are my picks.Woods the strongest. Valverde good for GdL. Still unclear who will win Lombardia but after this I'd say Birdsong and Bernal are not among the contenders.
They and he know that if they come to the final kilometer with him they will likely lose so they have to attack as Gaudu and Woods did. How do you make him work?Can never understand why they don't make valverde work, he's wheelsucked all the way. Well done.
Just caught up with the race, nice win by Woods, can he do what Pinot did last year?
Milano Torino is not a race that favors Bernal at all. He was 10th last year here but then was very impressive in Lombardia. Endurance will matter a lot more on Saturday.Woods the strongest.
